Canyon of Regret

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* The flustered Adalberta reveals to you that Wide Gulley has reported his father's abuse of power to the Concern's upper management. The guildmaster bids you speak with Wide Gulley and learn all you can of the situation, that she might help her old friend and mentor.
* Wide Gulley admits that he has filed an official complaint to the Concern, so ashamed he was of his father's actions. He suggests you speak with the accused in order to hear his side of the story.
* Deep Canyon reveals that his actions were fueled by the long-standing desire to bring down Adalberta for her betrayal years ago. Deliver this shocking revelation to your guildmaster.
* According to Adalberta, Deep Canyon's belief that she betrayed him is nothing but a misunderstanding. Loath to see him destroy his career due to this perceived slight, she bids you speak with Wide Gulley, and with him find a way to save his father.
* In order to prove that he is fit to remain vice foreman, Deep Canyon must demonstrate to the Concern that he still has the confidence of guild members. To this end, you must procure three chunks of darksteel ore, an extremely rare metal found only from unspoiled mineral deposits in Coerthas. You are warned that these deposits only appear during certain times of day. Use the technique Truth of Mountains to locate darksteel ore that appears in the Coerthas central highlands at 1:00 a.m. (Eorzea time), mine the required quantity, and return it to Adalberta as quickly as you are able.
* Owing to your intervention, Deep Canyon has been given a chance to redeem himself. With the matter now laid to rest, speak once more with the relieved Adalberta, who awaits you in the Miners' Guild.
* Adalberta thanks you for the part you played in sparing Deep Canyon a fate of ignominy, and lavishes you with praise for your growth as a miner. She bids you go forth and practice your craft for the benefit of all. May your toils never go unrewarded!
※The next miner quest will be available from Adalberta once you have completed the main scenario quest “Before the Dawn.”

Adalberta 	[Player Name], thank the gods you're here! It's Wide Gulley... He's gone and filed a complaint against his father to the Concern, citing an abuse of power!
Adalberta 	It has forced Deep Canyon into a difficult position, to say the least. And though the two of us haven't exactly seen eye to eye of late, I still owe the man a great debt. I would go to him and offer what aid I could, but he's like to spurn even the attempt.
Adalberta 	I know full well how much I've already asked of you, but I would be eternally grateful if you'd lend Deep Canyon aid in my stead. To get started, it might be best to see what possessed his son to inform on his own flesh and blood.
 	
Wide Gulley 	Here at the guildmaster's biddin' again? Well, I see no reason not to tell you about the situation. You know most everythin', anyroad.
Wide Gulley 	My old man was foistin' dangerous jobs on the guild, forcin' its members to risk life and limb fer his own agenda. If that ain't the very definition of abuse, I don't know what is. You yourself were on the receivin' end o' this, I'm sure you'll recall.
Wide Gulley 	Kin or no, I couldn't stand by an' watch my guildmates bein' used like pawns in his game. So I went to the Concern's upper management an' filed a complaint.
Wide Gulley 	He hasn't said a word to me since, but I'd have a guess that he might be willin' to speak with you. You've certainly done your fair share fer the guild. He's out by the entrance right now, 'case you want to hear his side of the story.
 	
Deep Canyon 	It's been some time, [Player Name]. You're doubtless here as regards my son's accusations. Well, it's just as he claims.
Deep Canyon 	Now, this ain't gonna spare me what's comin', but I had a reason for my actions: vengeance. I was supposed to become master of the Miners' Guild. Everyone knew I had the best claim. But Adalberta robbed me of the honor─me, the man who taught her nigh everythin' she knows about her trade!
Deep Canyon 	She went behind my back and conspired with her predecessor! An' then fancy who ended up bein' chosen to lead... By way of payback, ever since I became vice foreman, I've striven to make Adalberta's life harder than tryin' to mine with a dull pickaxe.
Deep Canyon 	All those outrageous demands? To make her look incompetent. At the same time, I went about ensurin' my son was well placed to take over as guildmaster. An' my plan was about to bear fruit, too...till you came along and ruined it all by bein' my son's better.
Deep Canyon 	Heh... By your expression, I take it you're doubtful of the tale. Well, you need only ask your dear guildmaster. She can vouch for everythin' I've said.
Wide Gulley 	If you're wonderin' where my father vanished to, he's been summoned to an inquest. The chairman of the Concern himself, Master Fyrgeiss, will be in attendance. An' that's just the beginnin'.
Wide Gulley 	The chief foreman's sons will be present as well─the twins Popokkuli and Seserukka. It'll be a sight to behold, all the guild's top players in one spot. An' it won't go easy for him, you can be sure of that.
 	
Adalberta 	What!? Deep Canyon believes I cheated him out of becoming guildmaster!? That's not it at all! I never aspired to this position...
Adalberta 	Gods, I was only an Ala Mhigan refugee, working as hard as I could to get by... I never even dreamed that I could rise as I did. And I suspected even less that it was that selfsame dedication to my work that would lead to me being chosen.
Adalberta 	If I had known that accepting the mantle would tear us apart... <sigh> Lamenting the past won't avail us. I only know that I wouldn't be where I am without the man. I can't allow this misunderstanding to cost Deep Canyon everything.
Adalberta 	I simply couldn't bear it. I'm not sure there's aught we can still do for him at this point, but we must try.
Adalberta 	Listen. Wide Gulley is the one who filed the complaint. If you were to throw your own weight behind some of my concerns, then maybe...maybe he could yet do something. Please, [Player Name]. It would mean so much.
 	
Wide Gulley 	Adalberta wants to help my old man? <sigh> Truth be told, it ain't my wish to see his career destroyed neither. I only wanted to teach him a lesson─make him know that he can't just use people for his own ends.
 	
Wide Gulley 	But now that the Concern knows, it's been taken out o' my hands. In their eyes, my father's actions've jeopardized relations with the Miners' Guild, an' nothin' could be worse.
Wide Gulley 	So, they've given him a test. If he's to remain vice foreman, he must prove at the inquest that he still has the confidence of the guild.
Wide Gulley 	An' they ain't interested in no words─they want hard evidence. That is to say, they're demandin' that someone from the guild show him loyalty by goin' an' diggin' up three of the toughest damn chunks of ore there is to find: darksteel.
Wide Gulley 	Problem is, he's got no allies in the guild, on account of his own behavior. I certainly don't qualify for the task, bein' his son. An' Adalberta can't do it neither, 'cause she's the bleedin' guildmaster─that's just how it works.
Wide Gulley 	This leaves you, [Player Name]. We don't have much time before the inquest begins, so you'll have to hurry. An' I wasn't exaggeratin' afore─darksteel's elusive as all hells, located in the snowy reaches o' Coerthas an' nowhere else.
Wide Gulley 	To actually find the stuff, you'll first need to use your Truth of Mountains technique to locate unspoiled mineral deposits. Then─an' gods know why─you'll have to survive a night in the cold for the deposits to reveal 'emselves. Finally, you dig...an' you pray.
Wide Gulley 	When you have enough chunks of darksteel ore, take 'em to Adalberta. I'll make sure she knows what's goin' on.
 	
Adalberta 	Wide Gulley's told me all about the situation. Be sure you bring in the darksteel ore as soon as you've got it.
Adalberta 	Now, I feel this bears mentioning, but regarding how to go about obtaining the ore... It may sound ridiculous, but it's exactly as Wide Gulley says.
Adalberta 	You'll need the endurance to survive a night in Coerthas, and the technique Truth of Mountains to locate unspoiled mineral deposits. Twelve speed your way!
Adalberta 	Incredible, [Player Name]! Your talents are truly boundless. Hopefully, these will suffice to spare Deep Canyon. But let's make haste to the inquest. Wide Gulley is already on his way.
 	
Popokkuli 	Well, did you get a guild member to bring you darksteel ore? 'Cause make no mistake, Deep Canyon, if you came to this inquest empty-handed, we will end you. Your time with the Concern will be just a memory.
Deep Canyon 	Ungh, I... Well...
Adalberta 	We have the ore right here, procured by [Player Name] of the Miners' Guild!
Seserukka 	Twelve be good, she isn't lying! This is darksteel, and some of the finest I've ever seen.
Popokkuli 	Hmph. It's no ordinary miner who can find darksteel, let alone stuff that looks this good. Seems your reputation is well earned.
Popokkuli 	That said, we're hardly here to question your ability. Though I find myself wondering as to your motives. Why did you bring the ore?
Seserukka 	Aye, I'd know the same. Why stick your neck out for him? He's given you nothing but trouble!
Deep Canyon 	What in the seven hells're you tryin' to pull, Adalberta!? I don't need anyone's pity, yours least of all!
Adalberta 	I'm not here to give you my pity, but to clear up the misunderstanding between us!
Deep Canyon 	Misunderstandin'...?
Adalberta 	Listen to me, Deep Canyon. I never wanted to become guildmaster! The responsibility was thrust upon me, and there was naught to be done for it.
Adalberta 	Gods, when my name was being bandied about for the position, my first instinct was to take myself out of consideration. Aye, I spoke to the guildmaster in private, as you say. But it wasn't to connive against you─it was to give up my claim!
Deep Canyon 	Y-You expect me to believe that!?
Adalberta 	If I had truly betrayed you back then, would I have bothered to come here?
Deep Canyon 	B-But...if that's true, then everythin' I've done... By the Twelve, to have taken this so far...
Wide Gulley 	You didn't want to admit defeat, Father. Adalberta beat you out on her own merits. You knew this in your heart, but you refused to accept it.
Wide Gulley 	In your pride, you convinced yourself that she betrayed you. But by doin' so, you only validated why you were passed over for guildmaster in the first place.
Wide Gulley 	Please, Father, let go of the past. Accept that you were beaten, as I have with [Player Name], and let's start over.
Adalberta 	You have it in you to do so, Deep Canyon─to begin anew. I know of your love for mining more than anyone.
Adalberta 	If you would be willing to try again, I promise you the guild's full cooperation.
Seserukka 	Full cooperation? Are you sure about this?
Adalberta 	Aye, I would leave the past where it belongs─in the past. The guild wants only to look forward, and to continue working with the Concern.
Adalberta 	[Player Name] was the biggest victim in this whole affair, yet s/he is willing to give Deep Canyon another chance. She/He wouldn't have brought the darksteel ore otherwise.
Popokkuli 	That's well and good, but what about you? Can you really forget everything he's done?
Adalberta 	...I can. Above all else, I miss my old friend and mentor. To get him back, I would forgive much and more.
Deep Canyon 	A-Adalberta...
Popokkuli 	Well, I'm inclined to lay this matter to rest. Any objections, Sese?
Seserukka 	If you're satisfied, Brother, then so am I.
Fyrgeiss 	Then it is settled! Vice Foreman Deep Canyon, by request of the Miners' Guild, you shall retain your present office at Amajina & Sons Mineral Concern. Through hard work, I trust that you will make amends for past transgressions.
Adalberta 	<sigh> I'm full glad that it's over... [Player Name], I would have a word with you in private. Would you mind returning to the guild with me?
Adalberta 	I asked you here so that I might thank you properly.
Adalberta 	Had you not been on hand to help, Deep Canyon's career would have ended prematurely, and in disgrace.
Adalberta 	Worse, I might have lost my dear friend forever. I owe you a debt that I'll likely never be able to repay.
Adalberta 	Ah, but look at you. In no time at all, you've grown into a miner who can make the earth yield up even darksteel ore, the rarest of metals. There's nothing left for me to teach you.
Adalberta 	As an adventurer, you're like to find yourself in all corners of the realm. But wherever your road takes you, I want you to practice our craft for the good of all.
Adalberta 	Go well, [Player Name], and may your toils never go unrewarded!
Quest complete.	Quest complete.
