Hail to the Queen

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Walking the streets of Kugane you happen across Keiten, who seems rather relieved to see you. As he explains it, Hancock has been searching for you, and asks that you come to the Ruby Bazaar to discuss an urgent matter.
* Hancock speaks with you of the state of affairs in the Empire, and of the disarray that has allowed resistance groups to rise up and fight back. One such group, unfortunately, lacks the means to do so, and has beseeched Lord Hien for assistance. He, in turn, would seek your aid. Unfortunately, Hien can prove difficult to find even at the best of times, which is why Hancock suggests speaking with his attendants at the House of the Fierce.
* You arrive at the House of the Fierce, but, as expected, Lord Hien is nowhere to be found. Thankfully, one of his attendants is at the ready, wasting no time in escorting you to him.
* Lord Hien introduces you to Marsak, a member of the Bozjan Resistance. To hearten his people, and give them the strength to overcome their Garlean suppressors, he intends to reforge the weapons belonging to Gunnhildr's Blades, the legendary guard of Bozja's ruler from the Third Astral Era. Such an ambitious plan requires great minds and still greater heroes to bring it to fruition, which is why Lord Hien sought you out. Never one to turn away those in need, you agree to help.
* Marsak is ready to return to Bozja, and would have you accompany him. He bids you prepare before meeting him at the airship docked at the Doman Enclave.
==Objectives==
* Speak with Hancock.
* Speak with the Doman attendant at the House of the Fierce in Yanxia.
* Speak with the Doman attendant.
* Speak with Marsak.

Keiten 	Milady/Milord! My, what auspicious timing. I intended to send a missive to the Rising Stones, but it seems that is no longer necessary.
Keiten 	Master Hancock wishes to speak with you regarding a matter of grave import. I can but imagine what other duties yet demand your attention. Still, he would request you meet him at the Ruby Bazaar at your earliest convenience.
 	
Keiten 	Master Hancock requests your presence at the Ruby Bazaar at your earliest convenience. Though he would not elaborate, it seems to be a rather pressing matter.
 	
Hancock 	And so s/he returns at last. From what Tataru has told me, you've come rather a long way, to put it mildly.
Hancock 	And while the Scions remained locked in slumber, she sought aid from all corners of the realm. In fact, it was I to whom she first turned when searching for a champion to assist her in your absence.
Hancock 	Though as you have no doubt surmised, I did not call you here to discuss such matters.
Hancock 	I have received word from Lord Hien that the Bozjan Resistance, our comrades in the Eastern alliance, seek the aid of distinguished heroes in their fight against the Empire, and naturally, your name immediately sprang to mind.
 	
Hancock 	Indeed, from a small nation found in the southern reaches of Ilsabard, to the west of Dalmasca. They were no doubt among the first to fall to the Empire.
Hancock 	Yet it would seem their hearts have yet to give way to despair. And with the Empire now in disarray, they would seize the opportunity to fight back.
 	
Hancock 	Indeed. Though the city-state has long since fallen to Garlean machinations, the remnants have agreed to join the cause.
Hancock 	And with the Empire now in disarray, they would seize the opportunity to fight back.
 	
Hancock 	If you would know the details in full, I think it best you speak with Lord Hien. His endless list of commitments makes him a hard man to find, however, so perhaps you can have one of his attendants at the House of the Fierce track him down for you.
 	
Hancock 	Those at the House of the Fierce familiar with Lord Hien's busy schedule may be able to help locate him.
 	
Domamessenger00000	Greetings, my lady/good sir. Lord Hien has been expecting you.
Domamessenger00000	When word reached us from the Bozjan Resistance, Lord Hien knew at once there was but one woman/man to whom he could turn.
Domamessenger00000	He left to the Coattails not long ago─the view of Doma Castle helps to calm his mind. This way, if you please.
 	
Domamessenger00000	This way, atop the broken bridge. He will be most glad for your arrival.
 	
Hien 	Do you remember when first we shared a view of this castle together? Still under the Garleans' control, perhaps, yet for all their wickedness, its beauty would not be so easily sullied.
Hien 	It is good to see you, my friend. You must forgive me for forgoing pleasantries, but our guest here is in dire need of your help.
Marshak 	Marsak, of the Bozjan Resistance. A pleasure to make your acquaintance.
Marshak 	As you have no doubt already heard from Lord Hien, my people seek to reclaim our homeland from the Empire.
Marshak 	Under his auspices, and that of the Eorzean Alliance, we aim to do just that.
Hien 	However, we recently received word that the IVth Imperial Legion has been making plans of their own.
Marshak 	It has long held the provinces of Nagxia, Dalmasca, and Bozja in an iron grip, using its Dalmascan headquarters to house the bulk of its forces.
Marshak 	Until recently, that is.
Marshak 	They appear to be diverting resources and manpower to their forces stationed in Bozja. In fact, three battalions are en route as we speak.
Marshak 	We thought perhaps to strike before they can fully assemble, but the Bozjan Resistance lacks the means to drive them off on its own.
Hien 	Aid from the Dalmascan resistance groups may have sufficed. Sadly, even Fran of Lente's Tears has been unable to bring an end to their infighting.
Marshak 	All hope is not lost, however, for Lord Hien has made a most intriguing proposal.
Hien 	An idea not my own, I must confess. We have our old friend Gosetsu to thank.
Hien 	As the Empire tightened its grip on Doma, our people were at a crossroads. Would they lay down and surrender, or stand up and fight?
Hien 	You sought me out, that I could become the spark that lit the fire of rebellion.
Hien 	The same must be done for the Bozjans.
Hien 	They require a standard under which they can rally. A symbol of hope to steel them for what is to come.
Marshak 	Lacking a living figurehead such as Lord Hien, my comrades and I looked to our nation's past for inspiration. There, we found the answer we sought: Gunnhildr's Blades.
Marshak 	They were the elite guard of Queen Gunnhildr, possessed of weapons blessed by the gods. Their exploits would become legend after defending our peoples against the Allagans in the Third Astral Era.
Marshak 	The strength of their steel was matched only by their dedication to the queen. Should one lose their life in her service, their holy blade was then passed on to a successor.
Marshak 	In time, their title would lend itself to the most renowned of their weaponry─the gunblade. But in truth, each member of her guard was master of a unique weapon.
Marshak 	Though these sacred relics have been lost to time, I would see them forged anew! Armed thus, our people would know no fear, and drive back our oppressors just as Queen Gunnhildr did the Allagans.
Marshak 	An admittedly lofty and otherwise unattainable goal for one such as I. Which is why I have traveled far and wide in search of great minds and greater heroes who might lend us their aid. We would be honored to have one of your renown at our side.
Hien 	We value the Bozjans' commitment to the cause, and I would see their plans come to fruition.
Hien 	Unfortunately, duty demands that I remain here. I could not in good conscience leave knowing the Empire yet threatens the border to Ala Mhigo. Should you choose to accompany him to Bozja, might I ask you also act as a representative of the Eastern alliance in my stead?
Hien 	Thank you, my friend. If there is aught else you require of the Eastern alliance, you need only ask. Safe travels to you both.
 	
Marshak 	An airship to our base has been prepared for us at the enclave's dock. I hope to see you there soon.
