Tomorrow Is in Your Fins

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* The clutchmother's cries grow more desperate, but fortunately you have finally struck upon a viable method: a birthing rope. No rope of ordinary make will suffice, though, for she is far stronger than the average finless one, and so Naroshs Koal implores you to seek out and slay several sea anemones that you might claim their tentacles as material.
※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level.
* From each of the anemones you harvest the stoutest tentacles, which will surely serve well as rope. Nevertheless, Naroshs Koal will have to be the judge.
* With a glance the young Ondo concludes that the tentacles are perfect. Taking them from your hands, he immediately sets about weaving the birthing rope─a task which leaves him utterly exhausted. It falls to you to deliver it to Xeroshs Ooan, before it is too late.
* You arrive in the nick of time, it seems, and after Xeroshs Ooan instructs the clutchmother's attendants in the rope's use, you and he and Naroshs Koal wait with bated breath as the Ondo matron summons her every onze of strength to bring her children into the world. Time passes without word from within, until finally you learn that the clutchmother and her eggs are well. For their loyal service, the two male Ondo are entrusted with an egg each, and though you are offered one as well at first, the clutchmother reconsiders after recognizing that you cannot possibly fertilize it, much less raise the resulting child as your own. Your joint duty complete, the newly named Naroshs Ooan begs a final moment to speak in private.
* Naroshs Ooan cannot well express his joy at finally being recognized as a full-fledged adult, worthy of raising a child─and it is all thanks to you. Though he will need to devote his every waking moment to their care for the foreseeable future, he is certain that you will cross paths again, and looks forward to that fateful day.
==Objectives==
* Seek out and slay sea anemones for their tentacles.
* Deliver the tentacles to Naroshs Koal.
* Deliver the birthing rope to Xeroshs Ooan.
* Speak with Naroshs Ooan.

Xeroshs Ooan 	The clutchmother continues to ssstruggle, as we feared. Her cries of anguish echo throughout the Cups and for malms around. There must be something that can be done to ease her pain...
 	
Ondoqqueen03591	My children... My children!
 	
Naroshs Koal 	This birthing rope of which the finlesss woman spoke is our only option. We must weave one at once, [Player Name].
Naroshs Koal 	However, we cannot rely upon the same materials as she did, for the clutchmother is far larger and stronger, and would surely sssnap one of the traditional make...
Naroshs Koal 	The tentacles of the sssea anemone! Bound together, they could serve as an unbreakable rope.
Naroshs Koal 	Once more I must impose upon you, [Player Name], for your skill at arms far outstrips mine own. I ask that you seek out and ssslay three of these creatures and take from each its ssstrongest, ssstoutest tentacle.
Naroshs Koal 	Much I have asked of you already, yet I fear I have no choice but to do so yet again. Only a warrior such as you or a proud ooan could triumph over the anemones.
Naroshs Koal 	They are ravenous, ever hunting for their next meal. If you sssurvey the grounds to the north of the Cups, they will likely find you ere you find them. Go quickly, for the lives of the clutchmother's children hang in the balance!
 	
Naroshs Koal 	You need only survey the grounds to the north of the Cups for a time. Your mere presence is like to attract hungry anemones ssseeking to make a meal of your flesh.
 	
Naroshs Koal 	Tell me you have brought with you the tentacles...
Naroshs Koal 	Bless you, [Player Name], blesss you! Far tougher and more robussst these tentacles are than I had dared hope. I shall weave the rope at once!
Naroshs Koal 	This...shall take...every onze...of my ssstrength...
Naroshs Koal 	<pant> <pant> <huff> <huff>
It is finished. Here─take it, [Player Name]...
Naroshs Koal 	Forgive me. I require a moment to rest. You must deliver the birthing rope to Xeroshs Ooan in my ssstead. Quickly!
 	
Naroshs Koal 	I fear I cannot accompany you at this time, [Player Name]. Go on without me─entrust the rope to Xeroshs Ooan. He will give it over to the clutchmother...
 	
Xeroshs Ooan 	Honored guest! Pray tell me you have brought sssomething to aid the clutchmother in her hour of need!
Xeroshs Ooan 	...A birthing rope, you say? I had not considered this. However, if it is as effective as this finlesss mother claims, then this day may not end in tragedy.
Xeroshs Ooan 	Let us hope that it helps the clutchmother to sssummon all her prodigious strength...
Xeroshs Ooan 	Only female Ondo are permitted beyond the threshold. Therefore I must instruct the clutchmother's attendants in the rope's use, and have them bind it to a suitable feature in the rock. And then, honored guest, we must wait...
Ondoqqueen03591	<pant> <pant> <huff> <huff>
Then...then if I grip the rope just so, I... I...
Ondowoman03591 	Again, mother! Push harder!
Ondoqqueen03591	Guuuaaaggghhhsssssshhhiiite!!!
Xeroshs Ooan 	Ssstill no word from within, after all this time... I do not wish to intrude upon her chambers, but if I must...
Ondoqqueen03591	I am here, and I am well...as are my eggs...
Naroshs Koal 	Clutchmother! Oh, praise be! It is sssuch a relief to hear your voice again.
Ondoqqueen03591	Xeroshs, Naroshs. You both helped me to triumph in this greatessst of trials. To you both will I entrust two of my finest eggs. And you, [Player Name]─you too shall receive of me an egg.
Xeroshs Ooan 	You would refuse? To Ondo there is no higher honor, yet you would refuse!?
Naroshs Koal 	[Player Name], you cannot be ssserious! You are of the shore! You have not the seed to quicken the egg! Surely not!
Ondoqqueen03591	Hmm... Upon further consideration, this honor ill suits you. Indeed, only male Ondo can provide the necessary ssseed, and as you have other duties you cannot forsake, 'twould be better to leave such responsibilities to the guardians of the Cups.
Ondoqqueen03591	Ere they become full grown, our children's gills are not fully formed, and so they ssstruggle to survive out of water. Yet as times change, so too must our ways and the relations between our peoples. Though this generation shall be raised here, perhaps future ones will know a different life.
Ondoqqueen03591	It is not quite the same, I know, to give birth here than on land, but I should like to think that I am ssstronger and wiser for this experience... I thank you again, honored guest, from the bottom of my heart.
Xeroshs Ooan 	I too thank you, [Player Name], and you, Naroshs. Were it not for your efforts, I fear for what may have become of the Ondo's future.
Xeroshs Ooan 	For your deeds in ssservice to the clutchmother have you been given your first egg. Raise it well, ooan. Raise it well.
Ondoqqueen03591	Many busy days lie ahead, but first I must rest. Go forth, my children, heads high and heartsss filled with pride, and see that my eggs are never without the love and affection they dessserve.
Naroshs Koal 	[Player Name], know that you are always welcome in the Cups, and shall ever be received with the ressspect and reverence a sssteadfast ally deserves.
 	
Naroshs Koal 	Did you hear them, [Player Name]!? I am to be a father! An ooan! And it is all thanks to you, my friend!
Naroshs Koal 	There is still so much I would know of your people and your ways. Out of curiosssity, yes, but also because I still believe there is more wisdom to be gleaned, with which we Ondo may better our lot. Yes, yes, this is only the beginning...
Naroshs Koal 	I look forward to the day my child will grow strong enough to venture onto land, and perhaps play together with the finless ones of Stilltide. I pray that they will treat us with the ssselfsame kindness and warmth you have shown us.
Naroshs Koal 	I knew I was not wrong to trust in you and yours, [Player Name]. It has been an honor and a pleasure!
Naroshs Koal 	My child will require my every waking moment for the foressseeable future, but I am sure that we will one day meet again. Until then, fare you well!
