|Zeid: I can see this place still lingers in your heart. Here is where it all began--where you set out on your journey as a Dark Knight.
Zeid: You've become stronger. However, you must never forget the souls of those you have brought down with your mighty blade.
Zeid: You have made many sacrifices to come this far. That is the road you have chosen, but also your sin.
Zeid: However, at the same time, one life cannot continue on without the loss of another. Denying this truth would mean the end of all life in Vana'diel. This vicious circle must continue on.
Zeid: Does the sword you wield shine as dark as the purest ebony? Do you thirst for new challenges that lie ahead? If so, seek out and destroy Gerwitz's Scythe.
Zeid: The scythe will be making its way towards the place where crystals gather. It will replenish its power there and then set out to seek fresh blood.
Zeid: To prove your strength to Gerwitz's beast, seek out the blood of a beast worthy enough and take it to the place where crystals gather. There you can call him.
Zeid: His beast is cautious and will not show itself to me. But you...to you it may just...

| The chest contains some armor and a letter.
Zeid: Fellow bearer of the dark burden, this helm was crafted by Gerwitz. His spirit instructed me to give it to you.
Zeid: His resolve to the cause rivals that of our own. However, for your soul's sake, I must warn you against doing anything you might regret later.
Zeid: It is precisely because we understand the fragility of life that we are made aware of the ephemeralness of our own souls.
Zeid: But do not let any attachment to life cause you fear. Do not let fear of the end lessen your pace. Do not repent for anything!
Zeid: I chose my own path, and so should you. You will find something worth more than mere righteousness.
Zeid: Should you ever doubt the path you have chosen, look at your blade and ask yourself this: does it glow with true darkness?
