Longing for Home

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker.
==Journal==
* Volusus succeeds in persuading you and Galla to search the ruins for clues to his parents' whereabouts. Though he had initially intended to visit their family home, the streets above have become far too dangerous, so you agree to go in his stead.
※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level.
* Volusus's directions prove remarkably useful and you are soon able to locate his house, ruined though it may be. You join Galla in sifting through the rubble for anything that might lead you to the boy's parents.
* You succeed in finding a letter addressed to Volusus among what remains of his house. Galla, who is also engaged in the search, will be eager to inspect this vital clue.
* Upon viewing the letter, Galla deducts it was left here for Volusus by his parents in the event he returned to the house. However, a considerable amount of time has clearly passed since then, and the missing family members are nowhere to be seen.
* Volusus is thrilled to discover there is a good chance his mother Vipsania is still alive. Though this is a step in the right direction, there is much to be done before the family is reunited.
==Objectives==
* Speak with Galla.
* Search Regio Urbanissima for clues as to Volusus's parents' whereabouts.
* Show the letter to Galla.
* Speak with Volusus.

Galla 	He's safer here than outside, but it's clear he'd be better off coming with us. There must be some way to persuade him.
Volusus 	Please, help me find my parents! My mum's got red hair just like me, and my dad—
Galla 	Volusus─ You have to understand that there's little chance we'd find your parents even if we went looking for them.
Volusus 	I do understand! That's why I'm waiting here. They promised to meet me at the station.
Volusus 	I know it's too dangerous for me outside. But you two can fight, can't you?
Volusus 	So, please. Please don't give up on them like everyone else...
 	
Galla 	I worry that we're only giving him false hope...but very well.
Galla 	After all, the least we can do is try.
Galla 	Thanks to my time in the Vigiles Urbani, I know the capital like the back of my hand.
Galla 	Between the two of us, we should be able to conduct a reasonably thorough search.
Volusus 	Thank you so much! I can't wait to see them again!
Galla 	Let's not get ahead of ourselves...
Galla 	This is exactly what I was afraid of... To the task at hand, then. Given the present state of the capital, tracing his parents' steps will be no easy feat.
Galla 	Volusus, do you know anything that might help us in our search?
Volusus 	Well, I was thinking about going back to my house...if it's still there.
Galla 	Where is that? Are there any landmarks nearby?
Volusus 	It's on the outskirts of town, to the south. Between the tavern and the bookshop.
Volusus 	Oh, and Dad always used to fly a huge imperial flag in front of our house. We were the only family that had one in our neighborhood.
Galla 	That should be enough to go on.
Galla 	All right. Let's get going.
Volusus 	They're alive─I know they are!
 	
Galla 	Well, we're in the right area. Remember: he said it was between a tavern and a bookshop, and that they had a large imperial flag in front of the house.
Galla 	Let me know the moment you find anything that might be useful, no matter how insignificant it may seem. Now, let's start our search.
 	
Galla 	We can only hope they left some clue as to their whereabouts. Without it...well, let's cross that bridge if we come to it.
 	
Galla 	Found something, have you? Let's have a look.
Galla 	It's addressed to Volusus! And from his parents, no less!
Galla 	And you said you found it nearby...
Galla 	It looks like someone's tried to clear away the rubble, but then thought better of it─the place is far too exposed. His parents must've come back to see if their boy had returned home, and then left him this letter.
Galla 	Judging by the condition of the paper, it's safe to assume some time has passed since their visit. We're unlikely to bump into them simply waiting here.
Galla 	I'll write a reply just in case they return, but for now let's head back to Volusus. Excellent work finding this!
 	
Volusus 	Did you find anything?
Galla 	Why yes, we did! A letter addressed to you from your parents, in fact. This is sure to help in our search, I know it.
Volusus 	Can I see it?
Volusus 	Hmm. This is addressed to me, but this isn't Mum or Dad's handwriting...
Galla 	Don't give up so easily, Volusus! Here, let me read it for you.
Galla 	“I am injured, but am in...
Do not worry about me. For now, you must stay out of danger.
Love,
Vipsania”
Unfortunately, it looks like the part detailing their location got wet at some stage. It's completely illegible.
Volusus 	Vipsania─that's Mum's name!
Galla 	Ah, so it is from her after all. There's a good chance she's still alive!
Volusus 	I knew it!
Galla 	We're one step closer to finding her!
Galla 	In all honesty, I'm amazed we found anything. Thank you for convincing me that the search was worthwhile.
Galla 	It's clear as day to me now why your comrades have nothing but praise for you.
Galla 	With you on the case, we'll find his mother in no time!
