To Catch a Poacher

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* The Archers' Guild has received a petition from a man named Buscarron, who runs a tavern in the South Shroud. Take yourself to Buscarron's Druthers and speak with the proprietor.
* Buscarron asks you to investigate a gang of poachers who he believes are led by the infamous Pawah Mujuuk. Search the forest for any clues to their whereabouts.
* You discover several suspicious objects in the forest northwest of Buscarron's Druthers. Return to the tavern and share your findings with Leih and Silvairre.
* Silvairre suspects that the bottles were taken from Buscarron's famous cache of home-brewed mead, thought lost in the fall of his former guard post. Investigate Buscarron's Scar for signs of recent activity.
* At Buscarron's Scar, you are ambushed by Pawah Mujuuk and her gang of poachers. A skirmish ensues, during which you successfully repel the enemy. Bear word of this to Buscarron, who awaits you back at the Druthers.
* Clearly nettled by the thought of the poachers helping themselves to his prized mead, Buscarron takes great pleasure in the tale of their comeuppance. With the situation under control, you can now return to the Archers' Guild and report all that transpired to Luciane.
* At the Archers' Guild, Luciane praises you for your outstanding service at Buscarron's Scar. She then thanks you for helping Leih and Silvairre to cooperate, and bids you continue working for the benefit of the guild. Your efforts thus validated, you resume your training with heretofore unseen fervor.※The next archer quest will be available from Luciane upon reaching level 25.
==Objectives==
* Speak with Buscarron.
* Search for clues.

Luciane 	You come at a good time, [Player Name]. I have a task for you.
Luciane 	A petition has arrived from the proprietor of Buscarron's Druthers, out in the South Shroud.
Luciane 	The petitioner, Buscarron himself, has requested our assistance in dealing with a gang of poachers. I would have the three of you meet with him and investigate his claims.
Leih Aliapoh 	The three of us? You mean, [Player Name], myself, and...?
Silvairre 	It would be better if I went alone, Luciane. The Miqo'te and...the other one will only encumber me.
Luciane 	No, Silvairre, you will go as three. Also, it is past time you recognized [Player Name] as a fellow archer.
Silvairre 	I will not. I have held my tongue on the matter of her/his continued presence here, but I will bend no further.
Leih Aliapoh 	Who in the seven hells do you think you are─Bowlord Lewin!? In case you've forgotten, you aren't even a Quiverman anymore!
Silvairre 	That may be, but I have shed blood defending our borders─unlike you, savage.
Leih Aliapoh 	"Savage“!? You know nothing about me, you bigoted son of a─
Luciane 	Enough!
Luciane 	But one more word and you shall have cause to regret your petulance. The three of you will go to Buscarron's Druthers in the South Shroud. Now, out of my sight!
 	
Buscarron 	Ah, you lot must be from the Archers' Guild. Welcome, friends.
Buscarron 	Now, as your guildmaster will have said, I put in a request for some keen-eyed archers to help me track down a gang of poachers that've been plaguing these parts.
Silvairre 	If I may─it is not uncommon to find poachers in this region. While regrettable, neither the Gods' Quiver nor the Wood Wailers deem them worthy of attention. Why, then, did you imagine them worthy of ours?
Buscarron 	'Cause these ain't no common poachers. They're Pawah Mujuuk's gang.
Silvairre 	...
Buscarron 	They say she and hers are always moving, staying one step ahead. But I reckon she's hiding out here somewhere.
Buscarron 	Thing is, I can't just send my people out searching. I made a pact with the Redbelly bandits, see─we stay out of their territory, and they don't make no trouble at the Druthers.
Buscarron 	That being so, if I summoned the massed ranks of the Wailers and the Quivermen, all seven hells would swiftly break loose...assuming they thought the matter worthy of their attention, of course. Needless to say, that's not an option. As luck would have it, though, I've got three keen-eyed archers to take care of things instead─and all without raising no alarms.
Silvairre 	...We understand. You may leave the matter to us.
Silvairre 	Leih, [Player Name]─split up and scour the area for any sign of the poachers.
Silvairre 	Should you discover anything, return here and wait. We will reconvene to compare our findings ere long. Go.
 	
Silvairre 	An iron leg trap and a poacher's arrow... These are both evidence of illegal activity, but nothing that will help us find Pawah.
Silvairre 	And these mead bottles are but old refuse, from before the Druthers was even built. They have no connection to the gang.
Leih Aliapoh 	...What do you know of this Pawah woman, Silvairre?
Silvairre 	I know that she is the most infamous poacher ever to walk the Twelveswood.
Silvairre 	A born leader, deadly with the bow, she formed her own gang of Miqo'te hunters.
Silvairre 	She was apprehended once, and would have been brought to justice...had she not tricked a foolish young sentry into releasing her, before vanishing without a trace.
Leih Aliapoh 	...Is that so?
Leih Aliapoh 	In any case, we've scoured the area and found nothing. How do we know that this Pawah was ever even here?
Leih Aliapoh 	I say we inform the Gods' Quiver and the Wood Wailers, taking care not to implicate Buscarron, and leave the rest to them. This doesn't concern the Archers' Guild.
Silvairre 	It concerns Gridania, Leih! Pawah Mujuuk is a savage and utterly amoral poacher whose actions, however indirectly, threaten the city's well-being.
Silvairre 	But what would a vagrant like you know of duty to one's homeland? No more than s/he, I suspect.
Leih Aliapoh 	How dare you! And you, [Player Name]─say something!
 	
Silvairre 	You see? Even s/he knows it to be true. Her/His silence speaks volumes.
Leih Aliapoh 	Damn it, [Player Name]─say something!
 	
Silvairre 	Hmph. Very well. We will return to the matter at hand. Mayhap we should take a second look at the clues we have gathered.
Leih Aliapoh 	Look all you want. Though the trap and the arrow we found suggest poaching, there is nothing remotely unusual about them.
Leih Aliapoh 	What do you think we should examine, [Player Name]?
 	
Silvairre 	We know that this is a poacher's arrow. Beyond that, it tells us nothing.
Silvairre 	This trap is a common tool used for hunting beasts.
Silvairre 	Such devices do not distinguish between friend and foe, and have been the cause of much tragedy for both man and chocobo. Gridanian hunters would never stoop so low.
Silvairre 	Poachers, meanwhile, are wont to litter the forest floor with these accursed things. That said, I see nothing here that will lead us to Pawah.
 	
Silvairre 	Why are you still carrying that rubbish? I told you, those bottles predate the Druthers. They have no connection with this matter.
Leih Aliapoh 	...But if these bottles are so old, why do they retain the scent of mead? They must surely have been opened recently.
Silvairre 	Wait. Before the Calamity, Buscarron once served as a sentry. Yet even then, he sometimes spoke of owning his own tavern...and it was an open secret that he was brewing his own private stock. If some survived...
Silvairre 	Of course! Buscarron's Scar─his old lookout post!
Silvairre 	It may not be Pawah Mujuuk, but we must investigate at once!
Silvairre 	Any signs?
Leih Aliapoh 	Look─the ground is covered in Miqo'te footprints.
Leih Aliapoh 	These tracks are fresh─very fresh. I'll wager the bandits were alerted to our coming and fled...else they're hiding near─
Silvairre 	Take cover!
Pawah Mujuuk 	...Eh? An' there I was thinkin' we'd caught usselves some o' them meddlin' bloody masqueraders...
Pawah Mujuuk 	Not that I'm complainin'─hidin' yer face's downright bloody rude when ye ain't been introduced.
Pawah Mujuuk 	Speakin' of ill manners, don't ye know it ain't decent to barge yer way into a lady's bedchamber without knockin'!?
Silvairre 	...You would lecture us on manners? Truly, I have heard it all.
Silvairre 	They have us outnumbered. We had best split up.
Leih Aliapoh 	The leader's mine! I'll try to isolate her from her litter!
Leih Aliapoh 	Silvairre, [Player Name]─the rest I leave to you two.
Silvairre 	As you will.
 	
Silvairre 	Was that the last of them?
Silvairre 	Have you seen Aliapoh?
Silvairre 	With me, [Player Name].
Pawah Mujuuk 	Tsk-tsk. That was a piss-poor showin', sister.
Pawah Mujuuk 	An' ye call yerself a Keeper? A hunter with no fangs ain't nothin' but prey.
Leih Aliapoh 	No!
Pawah Mujuuk 	Awww, bugger. Looks like playtime's over.
Pawah Mujuuk 	Be seein' ye, sister!
Silvairre 	So it was Pawah Mujuuk after all. Buscarron must be informed.
 	
Leih Aliapoh 	Pawah Mujuuk... I...I was no match for her...
Buscarron 	Seven hells! They were at my old post? And they drank my old mead!?
Buscarron 	That stings most of all... Well, 'tis past time the proper authorities were informed. I'll send messengers to the Wood Wailers and Gods' Quiver.
Buscarron 	The Redbelly bandits won't like it one bit, but I'll see they're told exactly who the military is after. I only hope it'll be enough...
Buscarron 	'Course, Pawah Mujuuk's no fool. Now she knows she's been spotted, she'll break camp and be long gone by the time the next bell sounds. And the trail won't stay fresh long, neither...
Buscarron 	Anyway, you've done me a great kindness, friends. Tell Luciane I appreciate the help.
 	
Luciane 	Welcome back, [Player Name]. Silvairre tells me that you encountered Pawah Mujuuk.
Luciane 	No Gridanian could fail to recognize that name, so oft has it been spoken, and with such bitterness.
Luciane 	I fear we lack the strength to face her ourselves. This is a matter for the Gods' Quiver and Wood Wailers.
Luciane 	That you confronted her and survived is a testament to your growing mastery of our art. Ah, and I was surprised to note that Leih and Silvairre were not at loggerheads upon their return. I presume we owe this unnatural state of affairs to your calming influence?
Luciane 	...No? Modest to the last. Truly, your every deed bespeaks a clarity of vision far beyond your years.
Luciane 	I implore you to share that perspective with your peers and help them to grow into better, wiser archers.
Luciane 	As you go forth and temper your skills in battle, know that we always look forward to your return.
