Leia's Legacy

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Story==
At Bentbranch Meadows, the adventurer was approached by a panicked chocobo breeder named Luquelot. An egg lain by Leia, a chocobo of legendary Ishgardian pedigree, had gone missing, and given the extreme value of the egg, Luquelot suspected theft. In their investigation, they learned of a suspicious elezen who had been in the area at the time of the theft and was seen running towards the Tam-Tara Deepcroft. Given that the elezen stole only Leia's egg, Luquelot deduced the thief must have been an Ishgardian themselves and knew of the eggs value, but that didn't explain why they fled in the opposite direction of Ishgard.
Pursuing the thief to Tam-Tara, the adventurer found the moogle Kuplo Kopo protecting the egg from Janremi Blackheart and his band. Defeating the bandits, Kuplo Kopo explained that he had been hiding out in the stables when Janremi arrived, and fled with the egg himself to protect it from the burglar, thus explaining why the thieves had not fled towards Ishgard.
==Journal==
* Luquelot informs you that an egg has been stolen from the stables. The lost egg appears to be of great importance to Luquelot. Question the people of Bentbranch Meadows and see what clues you can uncover as to its whereabouts.
* You have finished questioning the ranch workers. Report your findings to Luquelot.
* The egg thief appears to be a man from Luquelot's homeland of Ishgard. Follow the thief's trail to the Tam–Tara Deepcroft, and retrieve Leia's egg.
* You emerge victorious from your confrontation with the egg thief. Take possession of Leia's egg.
* Return Leia's egg to Luquelot at Bentbranch Meadows.
* You have retrieved Leia's egg and returned it to Bentbranch Meadows, much to the relief of everyone at the ranch. Speak with Luquelot, who will doubtless want to reward you.
* Having thanked you profusely for your assistance, Luquelot reveals that he bore witness to a most alarming sight while you were away. Given the obvious depth of his concern, it may be wise to ask the worried Elezen to relate the details.
==Objectives==
* Question the people of Bentbranch Meadows.
* Speak with Luquelot.
* Subdue the thief, and take back Leia's egg.
* Retrieve Leia's egg.
* Return Leia's egg to Luquelot.
* Speak with Luquelot.
==Walkthrough==
During the solo duty, Janremi fights as a lancer, and is accompanied by three hedge knights, of whom two are archers and one is a conjurer. The player is aided by Kuplo Kopo, who acts as a conjurer and can heal the player. Janremi will attack the player while the hedge knights attack Kuplo Kopo.
The player should first focus their attentions on the hedge knights attacking Kuplu Kopo, as the duty will fail if he dies. The conjurer will heal Janremi and the other hedge knights, so ignoring him will unnecessarily lengthen the battle. Janremi may inflict Slow or Stun with Feint and Leg Sweep respectively. When Janremi gets low on health he use Gut Rip will grant himself the Critical Skill buff, which makes all of his abilities guaranteed critical hits, and will repeatedly use Heartstopper, a short range AoE. Defeat all enemies to complete the duty.

Luquelot 	No! Oh, please gods, no! Leia's egg!
Luquelot 	[Player Name], you must help me! I stepped out of the stables for but a moment, and when I returned it was gone!
Luquelot 	I─ What was gone? An egg! Sorry? You are sure the chocobos will lay another!? Gah! You do not understand─the egg is extremely valuable! I must find it!
Luquelot 	You will help me, won't you, [Player Name]? Oh, thank you, thank you!
Luquelot 	Someone must have made off with it. There can be no other explanation. I shall scour every ilm of the stable once more just to be sure. While I do so, I should be very grateful if you would ask the others if they noticed anything unusual.
 	
Laodaire 	A chocobo egg has gone missing? Hm, well let me think.
Laodaire 	Now that you mention it, the chocobos were making quite a racket earlier. So much so, in fact, that I ran over to check on them, almost flattening a passing peddler in my haste. I didn't find anything out of the ordinary, though.
Laodaire 	Hm? Could I describe the peddler? Oh...he was an Elezen fellow─didn't recognize his face. Seemed awfully twitchy. Oh gods, you don't think he...? Why in the hells didn't I accost him!?
 	
Bernard 	Have I seen any odd characters about? Aside from yourself, you mean? Not that I recall.
Bernard 	I did see someone calming the birds, but only from a distance. I assumed it was Luquelot...
Bernard 	But if you say he was away from the stables at the time...then who was that with the chocobos?
 	
Ewmond 	See anyone actin' suspicious? I most certainly did, lass/lad. A man, it was, runnin' off towards the Tam–Tara Deepcroft.
Ewmond 	Hm? You say an egg was took? Then I'd say that there was yer culprit.
Ewmond 	But why would anyone pinch a chocobo egg? Without the proper learnin', it's damn near impossible to get one to hatch.
 	
Luquelot 	There can be no mistake, then. The egg was indeed stolen.
Luquelot 	And from what you have told me, this was no simple robbery.
Luquelot 	That the culprit should take only Leia's egg and disregard all the rest tells me we are dealing with someone well versed in chocobo breeding. I am sorry to say that the individual in question is like to be a citizen of my native Ishgard.
Luquelot 	Leia, you see, is of the bloodline of Ouranos─one of the greatest birds ever to grace an Ishgardian stable.
Luquelot 	Many a man in my homeland would give his right arm to possess one of Leia's eggs... Gods, I should have foreseen this! We must give chase at once!
Keitha 	Hold your chocobos, Luquelot! If this egg thief's from Ishgard, like you say, why'd he go runnin' off towards the Tam–Tara Deepcroft? Unless I've got me mental map upside down, that's the opposite direction.
Luquelot 	W-Well, yes, but...he may seek to lay a false trail, or...uh... Bah! The why of it is not important! Leia's egg is all that matters! Adventurer, I beg of you, hunt the scoundrel down and take back what he stole!
Keitha 	Well, at least you ain't plannin' on chasin' after him yourself...wherever he's from.
Keitha 	We may work wonders with our birds, [Player Name], but acts of derrin'-do ain't exactly our field. If you don't mind, we'll leave that end of things to you.
Keitha 	With luck, you may catch the thief on the road to the Tam–Tara Deepcroft, but do be careful─we cannot be certain he is working alone in this.

Janremi Blackheart 	<pant> <wheeze> I have caught you at last, you spiteful imp! Now hand over the egg!
Kuplu Kopo 	You can't have it, kupo! This egg belongs to Luquelot!
Janremi Blackheart 	Who in Halone's bloody fury are you? Ah, those sops at Bentbranch hired themselves an adventurer, did they?
Janremi Blackheart 	Yet another complication. This farce has gone on long enough. Kill the moogle and the farmers' hireling, and bring me that damned egg!
 	
Kuplu Kopo 	Thank you, kupo.
Kuplu Kopo 	What's that, kupo? How did I come to be out here?
Kuplu Kopo 	Ah, well, this egg here is Leia's. Leia is a very special chocobo, in case you didn't know. Anyway, I was having a nap in the stables when that nasty fellow crept in and tried to steal it, kupo!
Kuplu Kopo 	So I snatched it up as quickly as I could and made a run for it. I was planning to take it back to Bentbranch Meadows myself, but it might be safer if you did it. I'm sure Luquelot will be very happy to see you, kupo!

Luquelot 	Do you have the egg!? Is it safe!?
Luquelot 	Yes, it has the right coloring, the right weight... It is most definitely Leia's egg.
Luquelot 	I know not how to thank you.
Keitha 	You had me worried for a bit there, [Player Name]. 'Tis good to see you and the egg back safe and sound.
Luquelot 	...So I was correct in my assumption that an Ishgardian was involved─albeit one who did not, in fact, make off with the egg. Well, I could hardly have anticipated the intervention of a moogle!
Keitha 	Bugger me... It couldn't be the same one...could it?
Luquelot 	Might you have encountered our unlikely savior before, Keitha?
Keitha 	Could be, aye. One of 'em saved my hide back when the Calamity struck.
Keitha 	I was in a part of the woods what we now call the Standin' Corses that day. Seemed like the whole bleedin' forest was ablaze, and I couldn't see a yalm in front of me for all the smoke. Well-nigh given up hope, I had.
Keitha 	Then, all of a sudden, a moogle appears out of nowhere, tugs at me smolderin' sleeve, and leads me straight to a bit of the wood where the fire hadn't taken hold.
Keitha 	And now you know why the business is named “Moogle's Gift Mounts.” Seemed like the least I could do. I'd be dead if it weren't for that plucky little bugger.
Luquelot 	Incredible. It may well be that the moogle has stood vigil over us ever since that day...
Keitha 	Ha! We'd better get back to work, then. Wouldn't want to go lettin' our guardian angel down, would we? [Player Name], you have our thanks. Oh, and I believe Luquelot wants to give you a little somethin' for your troubles.
 	
Luquelot 	Leia's egg is irreplaceable. I cannot well express to you the depth of my gratitude.
Luquelot 	And yet, I find that I am still troubled... While this whole regrettable episode unfolded, I bore witness to a sight that greatly concerned me...
