Forest Friend

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. This quest was adjusted in Patch 5.3.
==Journal==
* Papalymo believes that offering aid to the troubled sylphs in Little Solace would go far toward earning their trust. As the sylphs are not wont to share their troubles with outsiders, seek the advice of Hearer Imedia.
* As Imedia would tell it, the sylphs live in constant fear of attacks by ill-tempered forest creatures. She bids you slay a ziz gorlin and a gall gnat, that the residents of Little Solace might rest easy, and suggests that procuring three brownie brushes in the process would also go far to curry the sylphs' favor.
* You have dispatched the invasive fauna, and obtained brownie brushes for the sylphs. Report to Komuxio of Little Solace and impress upon him your good intentions.
* Komuxio expresses gratitude for your efforts on behalf of Little Solace. It would seem the sylphs have begun to warm to your presence, albeit gradually.
==Objectives==
* Consult with Imedia.
* Slay a ziz gorlin.
* Slay a gall gnat.
* Obtain brownie brushes.
* Report to Komuxio at Little Solace.

Papalymo 	[Player Name]. As an adventurer, you're no stranger to helping distressed folk, I'd wager.
Papalymo 	Tales of good deeds are quick to spread. The adventurer who comes to the aid of the local populace can go from stranger to hero o'ernight.
Papalymo 	No doubt you see what I'm getting at. The sylphs who make their home in Little Solace do so having been driven from their woodland home. Surely, they have their fair share of troubles.
Papalymo 	Seek out troubled sylphs, and see what might be done to ease their worries. A sound plan, would you not say?
Papalymo 	That said, the sylphs are not known to share their worries with outsiders. You would be better off inquiring with Hearer Imedia; of the Gridanians who reside here, she is most like to be privy to the sylphs' troubles.
 	
Imedia 	Praise be to the elementals─I cannot express how happy I am to see an adventurer with a truly gentle heart. The sylphs of Little Solace are sorely in need of aid. Pray hear me out.
Imedia 	Being a temporary settlement, Little Solace wants for amenities, not least a stout set of defenses. Consequently, beasts from malms around are free to wander in and terrorize the hapless residents.
Imedia 	The ziz gorlins and gall gnats that roam these parts are especially troublesome, but slaying one of each should serve as a warning to the rest.
Imedia 	Furthermore, perhaps you could gather three brownie brushes as well. They play an important role in sylphic culture─I do not claim to know the details─and what with such feral beasts prowling the forests, they are not easily come by.
Imedia 	When you are done with the deeds, seek out Komuxio. He is slow to warm to outsiders, but your good intentions will not be lost on him. My own experience speaks to this.
 	
Komuxio 	Dancing one is still here? Dancing one can dance all night/day/day/night─this one's trust is not so easily earned.
Komuxio 	Hm? Dancing one brings brownie brushes for this one? This one can dye thread once more. This one is pleased.
Komuxio 	Dancing one kills bitey, buzzy one? This one hates, hates, hates bitey, buzzy ones! Dancing one is kind... Too kind.
Komuxio 	Many walking ones come to these ones' abode, but few are friendly like dancing one. Perhaps this one was wrong not to trust dancing one, after all.

Imedia 	Ah, you've returned. Praise be to the elementals─I cannot express how happy I am to see an adventurer with a truly gentle heart. The sylphs of Little Solace are sorely in need of aid. Pray hear me out.
Imedia 	Being a temporary settlement, Little Solace wants for amenities, not least a stout set of defenses. Consequently, beasts from malms around are free to wander in and terrorize the hapless residents.
Imedia 	If you could put down the ziz gorlins and gall gnats that roam these parts─five of each should suffice─the sylphs and I would be eternally grateful.
Imedia 	Furthermore, perhaps you could gather five brownie brushes as well. They play an important role in sylphic culture─I do not claim to know the details─and what with such feral beasts prowling the forests, they are not easily come by.
