One Fell Swoop

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Although Ryne was pushed to her limits as she struggled to seize control of Eden, it seems that she eventually succeeded. However, as she struggles to assert control over the mysterious entity, a warning sounds, and Ryne becomes acutely aware that Eden is being attacked from both within and without by unknown invaders. Thancred and Urianger race to repel the assailants that are approaching from the inner reaches, while you make your way to the exterior to confront an airborne foe as it swoops down from above.
※Eden's Gate: Descent can be accessed via the Duty Finder.
* Though you are hard-pressed by a relentless aerial assault, you eventually succeed in clipping the enemy's wings. With victory secured, you prepare to join your comrades to find out whether Urianger and Thancred were able to put down the intruders.
* Though you had assumed your vanquished foe to be unconscious, she struggles to her feet and threatens to finish what she had started. Before you, Thancred, and Urianger are drawn into another confrontation, Ryne steps forward to intervene, for reasons that perhaps she herself does not fully understand. After a brief and puzzling exchange of words, the girl collapses, leaving the rest of you to wonder what her true intentions might be. Thancred suggests taking her to the camp, in the hope that she may shed some light on the mysteries surrounding Eden once she has recovered.
* Now that the danger has been averted, Ryne is able to turn her attention to strengthening her link with the core. She explains that not only is Eden more receptive to her commands, she has also made something of a discovery.
==Objectives==
* Use the Duty Finder to enter Eden's Gate: Descent.
* Speak with Ryne.

Urianger 	The beast's fury hath subsided...
Thancred 	Well, I'm glad that's over. But for how long?
 	
Ryne 	It worked... I'm in control now. I think...
Ryne 	Although I'm now linked to Eden, I still need to figure out how to give it commands.
Urianger 	Pray tell, what caused it to convulse so violently?
Ryne 	It must have been when Eden rose into the air. I'm still struggling to stop it from drifting too far from the camp.
Urianger 	Even now, thou art─
Thancred 	Ryne! What's going on!?
Ryne 	Ah... Above us! Something's coming this way! An enemy!
Urianger 	But how dost thou─ Ah! Could it be a sin eater!?
 	
Ryne 	I...can't see them clearly, but... No, that's impossible!
Thancred 	What is it?
Ryne 	They're inside, too! Lots of them, trying to reach the core!
Thancred 	Uninvited guests, eh? If I'd known they were coming, I would've tidied the place up.
Urianger 	Japes are a poor substitute for a viable stratagem.
Thancred 	In that case, I suggest that you and I deal with the ones who're already inside.
Thancred 	And [Player Name] can welcome our airborne adversary.
Thancred 	Ryne, find out if Eden has any defenses we can make use of. Preferably ones that don't recognize us as the enemy.
Ryne 	I'm not sure about that, but I can use the aether currents to send you wherever you need to go.
Thancred 	That's my girl. All right, everyone, we've got work to do.
Ryne 	From what I can tell, Eden is able to form simple structures by redirecting aether, so I'll try to give you something to stand on. When you're ready, head for that portal over there.
 	
Ryne 	Come on, Eden! Show me what you can do!
 	
Ryne 	[Player Name]! Thank goodness you're unharmed.
Thancred 	We came as soon as we took care of our unwanted guests. They were a stubborn bunch and quite unlike anything I've ever seen in the First.
Voidwalker 	No... I won't let you...
Voidwalker 	Damn the Light... Damn you all!
Ryne 	Who are you? What do you want?
Voidwalker 	I... Unnngh!
Voidwalker 	Why am I here!? What is happening...?
Ryne 	She's alive, but there's something strange about her aether...
Thancred 	She didn't seem too pleased with Ryne taking control of Eden, which may be what caused her to appear out of the blue. Beyond that, it's anyone's guess.
Urianger 	'Tis plain she is not a sin eater. Not even in part as Vauthry was.
Urianger 	Yet this knowledge does little to assuage my fears, for she is nonetheless possessed of a power most terrible.
Thancred 	On the other hand, if she's feeling cooperative, she might be able to tell us more about Eden.
Thancred 	I'll keep an eye on her until she wakes up. There's no telling what will happen when she does, but I'll make it clear that we mean her no harm. Well, no further harm, at the very least.
Thancred 	Obviously, it's not a good idea to bring her inside Eden. It's likely that reaching the core was her aim from the outset, so I'll take her to the camp.
Ryne 	Now that things have settled down, I should get back inside and try strengthening my link to Eden.
 	
Thancred 	The girl is in the tent, fast asleep. Or possibly in a coma. One or the other. Either way, we have little choice but to wait for her to wake up.
Urianger 	I have yet to discover the means by which the exterior was breached, though 'twould appear that the fiends that Thancred and I slew were of a similar nature to those led by thine own adversary. Voidsent, in other words.
 	
Ryne 	Although I had my hands full trying to control Eden, I caught a glimpse of your battle. That power... I've never seen anything like it.
Urianger 	What thou witnessed was the tearing of the very fabric of reality─the creation of a rift through which voidsent may enter. But pray tell, Ryne, didst thou make any other observations?
Ryne 	Hmm... I couldn't sense any Light at all in that girl or her servants.
Ryne 	And I can't really explain how, but she reminded me of Emet-Selch.
Urianger 	Though I think it unlikely that she is an Ascian, she may yet be thrall to Zodiark.
Ryne 	Maybe we'll be able to find out more once she's woken up. In the meantime, I'll try to improve my control over Eden.
Ryne 	It seems to be listening more than before, instead of screaming at me like it was in the beginning. And that's not all! I've made an exciting discovery!
