Alphinaud's Way

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Conscious that Tataru should have a say in how to proceed, Alphinaud proposes that the three of you hold a council. Join your fellow Scions at the manor entrance, and signal to Alphinaud that you are ready to begin.
* As you discuss the possibility of enlisting Iceheart to mediate with the dragons, you are approached by Estinien, Ishgard's famed Azure Dragoon. He insists on accompanying you to the proposed parley with Nidhogg, and Alphinaud warily consents, on the condition that he stay his lance until words have proven ineffective. Before you can begin your mission, however, you must first convince Ser Aymeric to forestall any military action that might jeopardize your negotiations. Make your way to the Congregation of Our Knights Most Heavenly, and speak with the sentry on duty to be admitted to the Seat of the Lord Commander.
* Though troubled by your refusal to share the details of your plan, Ser Aymeric agrees to use his influence to keep the See's more vociferous crusaders in check. Ask Alphinaud what he intends to do next.
* Though Ser Aymeric has granted you a measure of time to enact your plan, the Horde will invade the moment its forces are assembled. Conscious of this, Alphinaud immediately sets his sights on the next objective: locating Lady Iceheart.
==Objectives==

Alphinaud 	The choice we make this day may have grave implications for our order. It is only right that Tataru should have a say. Come, let us all meet outside and discuss the path that lies before us.
Haurchefant 	The coming of the Horde spells ruin for Ishgard...but her knights shall fight to the last to shield her citizens from harm!
 	
Tataru 	What will become of this place...and us?

Alphinaud 	We have chosen a difficult road─yet even should we succeed in winning Iceheart to our cause, our plans for parley will swiftly come to naught should the Holy See decide to strike first against the Horde.

Alphinaud 	We must petition the lord commander's aid ere we set forth. I only hope that Ser Aymeric will be willing to muzzle Ishgard's forces on the strength of our vague assurances.
Alphinaud 	Tataru─I would ask that you remain at Fortemps Manor and inform the count of our decision. Tell him that the Scions of the Seventh Dawn mean to do all in their power to ensure that Ishgard and her people survive.
Tataru 	Yes, sir!
Tataru 	Don't worry about the count─I'll tell him the Scions aren't going anywhere!
 	
Templekightgate	You would speak with the lord commander? Pray make it quick.
Scene00020 	Proceed to the Seat of the Lord Commander?
Scene00020 	Yes
Scene00020 	No
 	
Alphinaud 	Having secured Ser Aymeric's support, we may proceed without fear of a preemptive Ishgardian attack─which is not to say we can afford to dither.
Alphinaud 	History tells us that the Dravanians will attack as soon as their Horde reaches a critical size. Before that happens, we must needs track down and win over the Lady Iceheart...and then locate and parley with Nidhogg.
Alphinaud 	In short, time is against us. If you are ready, Estinien, let us be about our task.
 	
Estinien 	I will say this for your plan: it has made keeping secrets from the Holy See seem almost entertaining.
Tataru 	I told the count that the Scions are here to stay!
