Over the Rails

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Now that all the members of the Mealvaan's Gate inspection party are assembled and briefed, Foreseer K'lyhia is ready to depart. Meet the assessor and the mercenaries outside of Aleport, and prepare to board the merchant vessel Morningstar.
* In order to make your way to the Morningstar, you must first board the small transport craft tied up at the end of the pier. Speak with the landing boat steersman, and announce the arrival of the inspection party.
* You have defeated the thugs sent to impede the inspection. Speak with the steersman once more.
* You have secured the pier for your companions. Head to the landing boat, and await the arrival of Foreseer K'lyhia and the two mercenaries.
* After a mighty battle with the crew of the Morningstar, you manage to arrive before the hatch that leads belowdecks. But just as K'lyhia seeks to begin her inspection, she is suddenly confronted by the ship's dreadful captain. With her grimoire tossed overboard, and her wits scattered by the terrible man standing before her, the foreseer slips into unconsciousness. You have no choice but to abandon the task. Return to the Arcanists' Guild and inform Thubyrgeim of your failure.
* You learn from Thubyrgeim that the captain of the Morningstar is an exiled pirate by the name of Doesmaga, and that this is not the first time the foreseer has suffered at his hands. Though K'lyhia has sustained no lasting physical injuries, her mind may require some time to recover from the shock of the encounter. The acting guildmaster bids you channel your emotions into your training, and clear your head for forthcoming duties.
※The next arcanist quest will be available from Thubyrgeim upon reaching level 20.
==Objectives==
* Speak with K'lyhia outside Aleport.
* Speak with the landing boat steersman.
* Wait by the landing boat.
* Report to Thubyrgeim at the Arcanists' Guild.

Klyhia 	The mercenaries Geissfryn and Aersthota are here to assist with the inspection.
Thubyrgeim 	Both are old hands when it comes to escorting K'lyhia during her more dangerous duties.
Geissfryn 	Well met, [Player Name]. My spells are at your disposal.
Aersthota 	This won't be the first time we're expectin' trouble, but as long as we follow the foreseer's tactics─and keep a clear head─we'll come through just fine.
Klyhia 	The Morningstar is preparing to dock in Aleport. We will meet our first challenge, however, before we even board the vessel.
Klyhia 	It is almost a certainty that the “merchant ship” has hired a thug or two to accost us at the pier─I calculate the probability at 98%. The crew wish to avoid attacking us on deck, you see, as that would all but trumpet their criminal intentions to the world at large.
Klyhia 	Now, once we do manage to clear the rails, we will face a deck crowded with armed sailors. For a small party such as ours, the most effective strategy will be to incapacitate individual foes as swiftly as possible─each opponent we down is one less weapon raised against us. It is imperative that we do not allow ourselves to become tangled in multiple, drawn-out skirmishes lest we be overwhelmed. I call this “Stratagem Hammerfall.”
Klyhia 	“Strategy is a tool used to manipulate one's situation into the desired reality.” Keep those words in mind, [Player Name]. It is time we departed─let us regroup before the main gates of Aleport.
 	
Klyhia 	Let us be about our task. [Player Name], pray inform the steersman at the pier that we are ready to conduct our inspection.
Klyhia 	Should violence be offered, you are to execute Stratagem Hammerfall. Do not forget: your tactics are both your shield and your weapon.
Klyhia 	Please inform the steersman at the pier of our arrival. Any aggression is to be rebuked with Stratagem Hammerfall.
Geissfryn 	The foreseer will be safe with us.
Aersthota 	We're countin' on you to cut us a path to the landin' boat!
Sendou 	You're with the folks from Mealvaan's Gate? I─ Ah, hells, I knew there'd be trouble!
Sendou 	Y-You're on your own, lass/lad!
 	
Sendou 	Well, then! I'm certainly glad to see you can handle yourself. You'll find the landing boat just down here at the end of this ramp. I'll have no part of what comes next, though!
 	
Klyhia 	Deftly handled, [Player Name]. Once again, I am reminded of our guildmaster.
Klyhia 	Thanks to your efficient response, we will be able to commence this inspection earlier than I had calculated. We shall board the merchant vessel out in the bay.
Klyhia 	Aersthota, if you would take the rudder? The Morningstar awaits.
 	
Klyhia 	Since their welcoming party at the pier failed to deter us, I expect─with a probability of 85%─that our arrival will incite further belligerence.
Klyhia 	Our objective, however, is not to trade blows, but to gain access to the hold. It may behoove us to employ “Stratagem Hardhead.”
Klyhia 	The aim of our opponents is to buy time so that suspect goods may be tossed into the ocean. I do not intend to give them that time. We will bull our way towards the cargo hold as quickly as we can.
Klyhia 	It is a tactic fraught with risk, but one that your presence makes possible. Shall we begin?
Talk 	I am Foreseer K'lyhia. By the authority of Mealvaan's Gate, I request that you surrender your goods for assessment!
Talk 	Well, now, yer timin' couldn't be worse, lass. The 'old door's all rusted up, ye see. Bloody thing won't open. Ye'll 'ave to come back another day after we's fixed the 'inges.
Talk 	I will see that cargo now. Any vessel entering a port of Limsa Lominsa is bound by law to submit to a routine inspection.
Talk 	The law, is it? Lads, I reckon it's time our “guests” 'ad 'emselves a little accident. Pitch 'em over the side!
 	
Klyhia 	A masterful display, [Player Name]! Now we can finally gain access to their cargo.
Klyhia 	Oof!
Doswmaga 	What 'ave we 'ere, then? It's one o' the bitch Admiral's lapdogs, scamperin' about me ship.
Doswmaga 	Yer just like yer mistress: always stickin' yer nose in where it ain't invited.
Klyhia 	N-No...it can't be!
Doswmaga 	Hah. Recognized me pretty face, did ye?
Klyhia 	B-But...you were caught... Exiled...
Aersthota 	Foreseer! Are you hurt? Can you stand?
Klyhia 	St-Stay back! You stay away from me!
Aersthota 	Foreseer, please, calm down! What are your orders?
Doswmaga 	I've 'ad enough o' yer whimperin'. An' I've certainly 'ad enough o' these bloody books. It's clear ye ain't learnin' anythin' from 'em.
Doswmaga 	Reckon it's time ye got a different kind o' lesson!
Klyhia 	Aaaaaah!
Aersthota 	K'lyhia! Nophica preserve us, she's fainted! We must withdraw!
Geissfryn 	[Player Name], quickly! Back to the boat! We'll carry the foreseer!
Doswmaga 	Aye, that's right! Ye slink on back to yer mistress, ye worthless curs! Gahahahaha!
 	
Aersthota 	We'll take care of K'lyhia. You'd best return to the Arcanists' Guild and report to Mistress Thubyrgeim.
Thubyrgeim 	It is good to see you well, [Player Name]. Geissfryn sent word ahead of your travails. An unfortunate turn of events, but considering the infamous blackheart you faced, you might have fared much worse.
Thubyrgeim 	Have you heard of the pirate Doesmaga? He was exiled from Limsa Lominsa some years ago, but it appears he has chosen to defy the Admiral's orders.
Thubyrgeim 	And once more he dares lay a hand on Foreseer K'lyhia! The poor lass must have been terrified. If I had known Doesmaga was aboard that ship, I never would have assigned her that duty.
Thubyrgeim 	The assessor may require some time to recover─for K'lyhia, that man is a nightmare made flesh.
Thubyrgeim 	Though her physical wounds will soon mend, there is little we can do to salve the hurt to her mind. You are concerned? Angry, mayhap? Harness that energy, and channel it into your training. I predict we shall be needing your skills again before long.
