Unseasonable Chills

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Mayaru Moyaru eagerly welcomes you to celebrate this year's Moonfire Faire. As he tells it, the highlight of this year's festivities is to be a delightful dessert commissioned by the ever-generous Master Gegeruju, and his colleagues would welcome the aid of an adventurer like yourself in preparing it. He invites you to speak with his colleague Haermaga should you be so inclined to join the effort.
※Please note that you will be unable to complete this quest after the seasonal event has ended. For details, please check the Lodestone.
* Haermaga offers a hearty welcome, seemingly greatly relieved at your arrival. It would seem that preparations for the dessert Master Gegeruju has commissioned have hit an unfortunate snag─to wit, the ice that is to serve as the primary ingredient for the frosty delight is nowhere to be found. He encourages you to check in with his fellow faire attendant P'obyano and see what you might glean about its whereabouts.
* P'obyano greets you and relates the situation in detail. Commissioned to craft the most delicious frozen dessert the realm has ever seen, a renowned confectioner named Nekeke struck out to the northern seas in search of the finest ice in all Eorzea─and naught has been heard from her since. As P'obyano ponders what might have befallen her special guest, you are interrupted by a scream coming from the beach. The faire attendant confirms that it is none other than Nekeke who appears to be drowning in the water, and you quickly rush to the confectioner's aid.
* Rescued from an untimely demise, Nekeke pieces together her fragmented memories and relates to you her travails. In retrieving a chunk of pristine ice from the harsh, snow-swept northern isles, it would appear that she inadvertently brought along with it a particularly blustery fiend that was responsible for sinking her ship, and now threatens to wreak havoc on the typically peaceful shores of Costa del Sol. P'obyano is quick to assure her, however, that you and your friends are more than up to the task of quelling this menace, and the two of you set off to consult with Haermaga about what might be done.
* You apprise Haermaga of the situation, and are heartened indeed when a contingent of veteran battlers appears out of the blue to assist you in dispatching the Bombard threat. Steeling yourself for a heated battle, you prepare to face the explosive fiend. Make for the Isle of Endless Summer, and do your part to save the Moonfire Faire by defeating the Ice Bombards in the FATE “A Blizzard of Bombards.”
※The FATE “A Blizzard of Bombards” can only be completed as a Disciple of War or Magic.
* Thanks to the bravery of you and your companions, the blustery Bombard menace has been banished from the Isle of Endless Summer, and Nekeke can at long last commence work on her masterpiece. Pay visit to the confectioner and let her know that she need worry about exploding balls of ice no longer.
* With the beaches of the Isle of Endless Summer safe once more, Nekeke vows to create a dessert that will please the Master Gegeruju's discerning palate and aesthetic eye. All that remains is to wait for her to complete her work before the festivities can truly begin.
==Objectives==
* Speak with Haermaga in Costa del Sol.
* Speak with P'obyano.
* Rescue Nekeke from peril.
* Speak with Haermaga.
* Complete the FATE “A Blizzard of Bombards” in the southeast region of the Moonfire Faire grounds.
* Report to Nekeke.

Mayaru Moyaru 	Well, if it isn't my favorite adventurer! Come to enjoy the Moonfire festivities again this year, have you? I promise you're in for a scorchingly, swelteringly good time!
Mayaru Moyaru 	Welcome, my adventuring friend! Come to enjoy the Moonfire Faire festivities, have you? I promise you're in for a scorchingly, swelteringly good time!
Mayaru Moyaru 	As you may very well know, the faire is a storied tradition that, in recent years, has served to promote the effort of the Adventurers' Guild on behalf of Eorzeans everywhere. Once again, we've got a piping hot plate full of exciting activities for one and all!
Mayaru Moyaru 	This year, we've also been tasked by none other than Master Gegeruju─our ever-generous patron of the event─with creating the ultimate icy dessert to stave off the heat.
Mayaru Moyaru 	We'd more than welcome the aid of a skilled adventurer like yourself─and needless to say, we'd reward you well for your efforts. If you'd be willing and able to lend a hand, simply hop over to Costa del Sol and speak to my colleague Haermaga!
Mayaru Moyaru 	Given any thought to helping us beat the heat this Moonfire season? My colleague Haermaga at Costa del Sol's Isle of Endless Summer is waiting for you with bells on!
Pobyano 	I do hope that Nekeke's okay...
 	
Haermaga 	Well, if it isn't [Player Name]! Come to help us create our frozen masterpiece, have you? Why, I couldn't have asked for a better partner in our confectionery challenge!
Haermaga 	Welcome, friend, and I hope you enjoy the festi─wait a minute. That's adventurer's garb, if ever I saw some. Did Mayaru send you to help with our confectionery challenge?
Haermaga 	And how glad I am to hear it! Gods' honest truth, we're in a bit of a bind here.
Haermaga 	You see, though we've been tasked with making the most delightfully frosty dessert, we are suffering from a lack of the all-important ingredient: ice.
Haermaga 	The shipment was supposed to come in bells ago, but word has it it's been held up by some disturbance in the area. Might you be so kind as to check with my associate P'obyano and see if she knows anything further? She should be just to the east of here, over on the beach.
Haermaga 	I reckon P'obyano should know something about the delayed shipment of ice. The lass's always on top of the latest comings and goings here.
 	
Pobyano 	[Player Name]! What a pleasure it is to see you again! Er, I imagine Haermaga's sent you to ask about the delayed shipment of ice.
Pobyano 	What's that you say? Haermaga's sent you to ask about the delayed shipment of ice?
Pobyano 	To be quite honest, the situation is something of a complicated one.
Pobyano 	As you may have heard, for this year's festivities, Master Gegeruju has imposed upon us a rather daunting task: preparing the finest frozen dessert the realm has ever seen.
Pobyano 	He promised us that he would spare not a single gil to see the deed done, so we decided to enlist the services of one of the realm's most prominent confectioners. All well and good to this point, yes?
Pobyano 	As it turns out, this confectioner was a hopeless perfectionist. Insisting that only the finest ice in all of Eorzea would serve for her creation, she hopped on the next vessel to the northern seas.
Pobyano 	...And that's the last we saw of her. It's not that I fear for her life, mind you─pardon the pun, but she's one tough cookie. That said, the festivities are all but upon us, and if she doesn't make it back soon...
Beachguy03966 	Ye gads! That poor girl's drowning out there!
Nekeke 	Glub...glub...glub...!
Pobyano 	That garb...yes, it's her! [Player Name]! That's Nekeke, the selfsame confectioner of whom I just spoke! We must help her at once!
Pobyano 	Poor Nekeke! Do you suppose she's all right...!?
Beachguy03966 	As soon as I saw her, I swam out and brought her to shore, but...were we too late?
Beachguy03966 	Will she be all right now? In any event, I'll leave her to your capable hands.
Nekeke 	Ungh...
Pobyano 	Oh, Nekeke! You've come back to us! Thank the gods...
Nekeke 	P'obyano? Is that you? Why...I'm back in Costa del Sol!
Pobyano 	You are, indeed! Whatever happened to you out there? Were you swept away in a storm!? Tossed from your boat by some eldritch horror from the depths of the sea!?
Nekeke 	I fear my memory is still hazy... As I remember, we sailed to the northern seas, where─after braving the elements and some vicious fiends set on making a meal of me─I succeeded in procuring the most pristine ice I've ever laid eyes upon.
Nekeke 	We began the journey back, and just as we were approaching Costa del Sol...it's no use. The only thing I remember is our vessel capsizing, and my body being flung from the deck along with my hard-won supply of ice.
Nekeke 	...But at least I made it back in one piece. And I have you and your friend here to thank for that, P'obyano.
Nekeke 	Oh, my dearest friends! You, too, survived the shipwreck! Why, I couldn't be happier!
Pobyano 	These creatures are your...friends?
Nekeke 	Aren't they lovely? We met on one of the isles up north. I shared some of my treats with them, and next thing I knew, they were following me everywhere. They're gentle and strong─the most perfect companions, really.
Nekeke 	All right, that's enough of the touching reunion! My precious ice is scattered all about the place. Go round it up and bring it here─on the double, now!
Kuma 	Grrrrrrrrr!
Pobyano 	Well, would you look at that! They're quite clever, aren't they?
Nekeke 	Oh, lucky day! The seals are intact, and the ice inside undamaged and unmelted. That means only one potential rub remains...
Nekeke 	Yes, as a matter of fact... The ice, you see, is everything I hoped it would be. Which is why it was rather to my chagrin when I later discovered that a dreadful fiend slumbered in the rather large chunk of ice that I had loaded onto our vessel.
Nekeke 	Yes, it's all coming back to me now. As we neared Costa del Sol, with the balmy winds drifting in, I heard a dreadful rumbling coming up from the cargo hold...
Nekeke 	I rushed down to investigate, only to see the fearsome creature. It appeared rather perturbed by the heat, and it suddenly began to swell larger and larger, until...boom!
Nekeke 	...It would appear my own carelessness was the cause of our unfortunate incident. Fortunately, my furry companions and I have survived the shipwreck, as has my stock of the purest ice!
Nekeke 	And yet, I fear that the fiend will be back, in search of the icy home I so unceremoniously stole from him. Whatever am I to do...!?
Pobyano 	Have no fear, my dear Nekeke! In faires over the years, my friends and I have fought off more Bombards than you can shake a stick at! Why, “Bombard buster” could be my middle name!
Pobyano 	Now, let's go apprise Haermaga of the situation─surely he'll have an idea as to how we can deal with the menace and kick the festivities off with a bang!
Pobyano 	Haermaga's an old hand at Bombard busting. He's sure to have a trick or two up his sleeve that will serve us well.
Nekeke 	I'm not sure how much help I'll be. And yet I'm the one who brought this menace here─it wouldn't do for me to just stand on the sidelines while you do all the heavy lifting.
 	
Haermaga 	Ah, [Player Name]! I was wondering when I might hear back from you and P'obyano.
Haermaga 	And I see our star confectioner has joined you as well! Pray tell, how did you fare?
Haermaga 	...Oh dear. So while the ice has been safely procured, a blustery Bombard of behemoth-like proportions has been procured alongside it? No doubt that has something to do with the panicked screams I heard coming from the beach...
Haermaga 	But not to worry! After all, what is the Moonfire Faire if not a season for blasting ill-tempered, hot-headed balloons out of the air? And I know just the person to assist us in the effort! Just a moment, now...
Thracie 	...Say no more, Master Haermaga. I stand ever at the ready, my friends!
Haermaga 	Wh-Who goes there!?
Thracie 	Surely you have heard the tales of Thracie, brave leader of the Bombardiers and bane to Bombards the realm over! Or perhaps you haven't─but no matter! Pray rest assured that I and my companions will see safety returned to your beaches.
Bago 	Ba Go, too, has come to save the day! And he has brought his fun little toys─trinkets, trifles, toys! Oh yes, Ba Go has brought his toys that go boom!
Rfhultia 	And I'm R'fhul Tia! I may still be new to this adventuring business, but I promise you that what I lack in experience, I make up for in pluck! Pluck, spirit, and...er...determination.
Nekeke 	This whole mess was all my fault, and still so many of you have come to my aid. How can I ever repay you...
Haermaga 	Nonsense, my dear! The ice you brought was at our behest, and all will be forgiven when you fashion for us the most delightful frosty dessert Master Gegeruju has ever laid eyes on! Besides, the exploits of Bombard-busting adventurers are sure to bring even more good publicity to the guild.
Pobyano 	That settles it, then! Let's get out there and show that oversized ball of ice that the Isle of Endless Summer is no place for his ilk!
Nekeke 	Forgive me, my friends. I had every intention of joining you out there, but Master Haermaga would hear nothing of it. After all, he said, who would take my place in the kitchen if I were injured on the battlefield?
Nekeke 	And so, loath as I am to do so, I leave the Bombards in your most capable hands!
Haermaga 	I've no doubt you can handle the matter on your own, but hang my tongue if I'm not going to provide you with all the backup you require, and then some! Rest assured that some of my most capable colleagues will be joining you on the front lines.
Pobyano 	Be safe out there, [Player Name]! I'll round up some potions in case we need a freshening up from time to time.
Pobyano 	Welcome back, my friend!
Haermaga 	Ah, [Player Name]! Pray tell, how did you fare?
 	
Nekeke 	That look of relief and supreme satisfaction on your faces...am I to surmise that you've succeeded in driving off that most baleful Bombard!?
Rfhultia 	Indeed! And we scarcely even broke a sweat in the doing! Isn't that right, P'obyano?
Pobyano 	Quite so, my friend. Though I daresay it wouldn't have been nearly so easy without [Player Name] at our side. I can't thank you enough, my friend!
Thracie 	And yet, we must remain ever vigilant, for there is no telling when the dread creature's friends may return to seek their revenge. In any event, the Isle of Endless Summer is safe for now, and that is what matters most.
Nekeke 	You truly are heroes─all of you!
Haermaga 	Well, all's well that ends well, I say. And with that, I say it's time we retrieved our supplies from the beach.
Nekeke 	Splendid! Just you wait, my friends! Nekeke is going to prepare the most marvelous dessert this realm has ever seen!
