Short Arms of the Law

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Koharu has found the suspicious Lalafells, and is trailing them. Follow the rest of the Doman Adventurers' Guild to where she is hiding near the southeast gate of Revenant's Toll.
* Koharu has found the cart and two of your four suspects. However, this brings up the question of how to prove the criminals' guilt. After a stroke of brilliance, Yozan and Rokka put on a show for the two Lalafells. They pretend that the stolen grimoire contains the location of a hidden treasure. Suitably persuaded, the two suspects run off. Meet with Yozan to the east of Camp Revenant's Toll in hopes of heading off the criminals.
* Hiding in a gully, you watch as four Lalafells wander towards the camp, the stolen grimoire in hand. You and the Doman Adventurers' Guild rush towards them, revealing that the tale of treasure was all merely a ploy. In a fit of pique, the leader, Gagarua, calls for his allies to teach you a lesson. Speak with him, and defeat his henchmen should they attack you.
* You successfully fend off Gagarua's gang. Now speak with the man himself, and see if he will come quietly.
* Upon realizing who you are, Gagarua calls his allies to him, and summons something down upon you from the skies. By the time you realize that this was all a trick, the criminals have run away. However, they have left the aged grimoire in their haste. Retrieve this valuable piece of evidence now.
* You have retrieved the grimoire from where it was left. Show it now to Yozan.
* Yozan is happy that you now have the means to clear the name of the Doman Adventurers' Guild, and bids you present the aged grimoire to Slafborn back in Revenant's Toll forthwith.
* Slafborn gratefully accepts the stolen grimoire, and listens to your tale exonerating the children. Yozan makes it clear that they are all adventurers now, and Slafborn agrees with the hint of a smile on his lips. He watches as the children run away, presumably to find some new quest, and asks that you guide them with a gentle hand, and protect them with your strong arm.

Youzan 	Miss/Mister [Player Name], Koharu's found our suspects!
Youzan 	They've parked their cart around the southeast gate. Come on, let's go investigate. But be quiet─we don't want them to know we're onto them yet.
 	
Koharu 	I told you I'd find them!
 	
Shiun 	What if they're armed? Shouldn't we have weapons, too?
 	
Rokka 	I don't know why Koharu thinks this is fun. We're supposed to be clearing our names, aren't we?
 	
Koharu 	See? See? Those are our Lalafells, all right!
Shiun 	But how do we prove they're our criminals? From here, it doesn't look like they've got the grimoire. Could it be hidden in their cart?
Rokka 	The other two might have it as well. Or maybe...we've got the wrong people.
Youzan 	I think I've an idea of how to find out. Rokka, can you play along?
Rokka 	Have you heard about Rowena's store? They're saying someone stole a grimoire from it!
Youzan 	That's old news! I think they've even given up hunting for the criminals. <sigh> It's too bad, though. I wanted that grimoire for myself.
Rokka 	Why? Because it's got the location of the treasure─
Youzan 	Shhh! Do you want everyone to know about all the buried gold and jewels!? And what about the weapons, hm?
Youzan 	They say those are stronger than the Empire's! I spent so much time learning that the treasure's in Camp Revenant's Toll, but I'll never find it now...
Rokka 	Well, not without the grimoire, anyway. So why not just give up while you're ahead?
Wawaton 	Did you hear that? The lad just said there's gold and silver and weapons out 'round that old camp! Ohoho, imagine how pleased the boss'll be with this! Come on, let's go!
Lilina 	I'm awake! I'm awa... Huh? Where'd you go?
Wawaton 	Move yourself, Sister! Time's a-wasting!
Lilina 	W-Wait! I can't run as fast as you!
Koharu 	That was brilliant, Yozan! If they're our criminals, they'll show up at the camp with the grimoire.
Rokka 	And if the other two are anything like that duo, we shouldn't have any trouble catching them.
Shiun 	That's a relief! I was expecting hardened criminals, but that lot couldn't frighten a baby horsebird.
Youzan 	We just have to beat them to Camp Revenant's Toll now. From the way they took the bait, I don't think we have much time. We'd better hurry!
 	
Youzan 	Koharu, are you sure that's them?
 	
Shiun 	We're good at passing unseen, but not in the middle of town! Mister Slafborn will see us if we're not really, really careful...
 	
Rokka 	Watching Koharu and Yozan work together is exciting, isn't it?
 	
Youzan 	I hope they'll come quietly. But if they don't, you'll have to take care of them, Miss/Mister [Player Name].
Gagarua 	Gold, jewels, weapons... All hidden somewhere in this dump, where no one would think to look.
Gagarua 	I think I'll take it all. Garlemald laid my homeland to waste, and so I'll use the riches to rebuild. And the weapons, oh, I will use them to make the world mine!
Babara 	Of all the secrets of eld I thought this grimoire held, the location of a lost treasure was not one...
Gagarua 	Well, 'tis but a matter of knowing where to look. Tell us─how do we read it? Is there a cipher? Or must we use some sort of incantation?
Wawaton 	Er... That is a good question! I'll be sure to tell you just as soon as I learn the answer!
Gagarua 	WHAT!? You buffoon! Why did you not think to find out!?
Wawaton 	Erp! I...I'm sorry, Gagarua, it just didn't seem important at the time!
Gagarua 	Why you─ Hm? What are they doing...?
Go play elsewhere. Adults are working here, children.
Youzan 	We're not children─we're the Doman Adventurers' Guild! We're here to arrest you for stealing the grimoire from Rowena's!
Wawaton 	Oh, oh! Gagarua, those are the children who talked about the treasure! They'll know how to read the grimoire for sure.
Gagarua 	...
Babara 	You two have been had. I knew something smelled fishy about this.
Gagarua 	You prize pair of pinheads!
Gagarua 	No one makes a fool of Gagarua, you hear me!? No one! We shall teach these younglings a painful lesson about meddling in others' affairs! Come, summon the thing!
Babara 	What thi─ Oh, that. It's not here.
Gagarua 	...Why is that?
Babara 	You sent it away, Gagarua. You said it would draw too much attention to us.
Babara 	<sigh> ...So we'll just do the dirty work, then?
 	
Koharu 	Oooh, this is all terribly exciting!
 	
Shiun 	We learned how to wait silently and unseen in Doma. Yozan never took to it as well as we did, though...
 	
Rokka 	It's all very well waiting around for our criminals, but what do we do once they're here?
 	
Gagarua 	One of you against all three of mine? Hah! You don't stand a...a mammet's chance in the hells!
 	
Youzan 	Just do like you did with Mister Boulder, Miss/Mister [Player Name]!
 	
Koharu 	I'll leave them to you, Miss/Mister [Player Name]. But someday, I'll show you what Miss Yda taught me!
 	
Shiun 	This doesn't seem like a fair fight. Can we help? From back here, I mean.
 	
Rokka 	I'll heal you if you get hurt, Miss/Mister [Player Name]! Later. When I have a potion.
 	
Gagarua 	Twelve above, where did those younglings find so puissant a protector!?
Babara 	I've got a feeling I've seen her/him before... Wait! Quick, everyone, come here!
Babara 	It's little wonder we were outmatched─that is [Player Name], the hero of the Scions!
Wawaton 	You don't mean the lass/lad who's beaten a load of primals, and smashed the imperial...er, ultimatum weapon to bits!?
Gagarua 	We can discuss her/his deeds and why s/he is with the children later, Wawaton! Babara, Lilina, we must do as we practiced!
Gagarua 	Ahem... Well met, Scion! Yes, we know full well who you are. But hear me─you won't be adding us to your list of fallen foes! Are you ready, my friends?
Gagarua 	As our forefathers before us, we have a winged beast in our thrall, whose strength is so great as to tear primals in twain and turn brave men to whimpering wretches! O mighty Valefor, we summon you with our prayers─descend from the heavens, and vanquish our foes!
Koharu 	...Isn't something supposed to happen?
Youzan 	Damn it, they got away!
Rokka 	Hey! There they go. Faster than they look, aren't they?
Youzan 	That was a queer bunch, make no mistake! But they forgot one thing─the grimoire!
 	
Youzan 	Come on, Miss/Mister [Player Name]─get them!
 	
Koharu 	Wow! You beat them faster than you beat Mister Boulder, Miss/Mister [Player Name]!
 	
Shiun 	Something tells me this isn't over...
 	
Rokka 	They're much better at talking about fighting than actually fighting...
 	
Youzan 	Miss/Mister [Player Name], get the grimoire.
 	
Koharu 	They seemed fun. I hope I can talk to them again, someday.
 	
Shiun 	They turned tail and ran when they learned who you were, Miss/Mister [Player Name].
 	
Rokka 	I wonder how those four are related...
 	
Youzan 	Hah! Now that we've got the grimoire, all we need to do is show it to Mister Slafborn and explain what happened! Come on, what are we waiting for?
 	
Slafborn 	What did the Doman children have to say for themselves?
Slafborn 	The younglings and the grimoire? So it is as I feared, and they are responsible for stealing it, yes?
Slafborn 	Gagarua? No, I cannot say I am familiar with him. But if you say he and his conspirators are to blame, then I will believe it. I will report to the guild, and ensure we all are on lookout for that gang.
Slafborn 	Well, you may consider yourselves exonerated. That you reclaimed the grimoire and your good names says much of your bravery, younglings.
Youzan 	Mister Slafborn, we are not younglings!
Youzan 	We are the Doman Adventurers' Guild! All the world will soon know our name, and one day, we'll even be more famous than Miss/Mister [Player Name]!
Slafborn 	More famous than [Player Name], eh? Well, I look forward to seeing that.
Slafborn 	Well, as one adventurer to another, let me say well done! You outfitted yourselves with honor today, my friends!
Slafborn 	What brave men and women they are becoming, eh? But they are still in the bloom of youth─growing, yet not fully grown.
Slafborn 	They need a gentle hand to guide them, and a strong arm to protect them. Pray, friend, be that for them.
Balloon 	Anyone who stands before Gagarua must fall!
 	
Balloon 	Hmph. You know your way around a fight, I'll give you that.
 	
Balloon 	Gods above, who are you!?
 	
Balloon 	Aaarrrggghhh!
 	
Balloon 	Lilina! Oi, Lilina! I'm hurting here!
 	
Balloon 	<pant> Bloody tiring, this...
 	
Balloon 	Hm? What're we─ Oh, right!
 	
Balloon 	Ow! That'll leave a bump...
 	
Balloon 	Hrnnnggg!
...Oooh, I'm going down, I'm going down...
