Training with Leih

is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
==Journal==
* Satisfied with your progress, Luciane places you under the charge of Leih Aliapoh for your next lesson. Speak with your fellow archer to learn what is required of you.
* Leih Aliapoh impresses upon you the importance of minding your surroundings while searching for your target. In order to put theory into practice, seek out and destroy the targets hidden in the Central Shroud whilst simultaneously avoiding contact with the many hostile creatures that reside there. As before, your Heavy Shot technique will make short work of the objects you seek.
* You have successfully destroyed all of the targets. Report back to Leih Aliapoh at the Archers' Guild.
* Now that you have grasped the basic principle, Leih Aliapoh bids you hone your skills through combat. Journey to the Honey Yard in the East Shroud and slay eight northern vultures and eight tree slugs.
* You have succeeded in slaying the specified creatures. Report back to Leih Aliapoh at the Archers' Guild.
* Leih Aliapoh enlightens you as to the origins of archery. Apparently, the art was conceived by her ancestors, the Keepers of the Moon, who lived as hunters in former times. Her lesson concluded, it is time to return to Luciane, who will doubtless be eager to learn of your progress.
* As before, Silvairre makes no effort to hide his contempt for you. Yet in spite of this─or perhaps because of it─Luciane declares her intent to place you under his charge for your next lesson. So forewarned, you resume your training with greater purpose.※The next archer quest will be available from Luciane upon reaching level 15.

Luciane 	It pleases me to see how you have grown as an archer. Plainly, you have taken my counsel to heart and learned to see with your own eyes.
Luciane 	I would now have you discover what it means to behold things from a different standpoint.
Luciane 	You will recall Leih Aliapoh, your senior in the guild. I have given you over to her care for this lesson. Speak with her and do as she bids.
 	
Leih Aliapoh 	I've been expecting you, [Player Name]. Shall we get on with it, then?
Leih Aliapoh 	First, a quick review. Remember how the bowmaster had you seek out and destroy targets hidden throughout the city?
Leih Aliapoh 	Well, I would have you do the same. This time, however, you will need to venture outside the gates.
Leih Aliapoh 	I'm sure you've realized this by now, but there is no guarantee of safety within the Twelveswood. As you search, you should take care to mind your surroundings.
Leih Aliapoh 	You won't have the luxury of focusing solely on your quarry this time─you'll have to keep your eyes peeled for potential threats as well.
Leih Aliapoh 	That said, your objective is to destroy the targets alone, so avoid unnecessary combat and maintain a safe distance from any hostile creatures you encounter. Should you come under attack, take to your heels, risking direct confrontation only if you can't outrun your pursuers.
Leih Aliapoh 	The targets are hidden in the Central Shroud. As before, use the Heavy Shot technique to destroy each one with a single arrow. Go well, [Player Name].
 	
Leih Aliapoh 	Well, well! You made short work of those targets, I must say. It seems you've learned to seek your prey without being preyed upon.
Leih Aliapoh 	Let's continue then. I've a mind to give you more practical experience, and we received a request just recently which I think will provide the perfect opportunity...
Leih Aliapoh 	It seems tree slugs and vultures have been congregating in ever-increasing numbers in the vicinity of the Honey Yard, causing no end of trouble for the locals. We have been tasked with culling the beasts.
Leih Aliapoh 	This request comes direct from Stillglade Fane. When the Wood Wailers and the Gods' Quiver cannot spare the forces to attend to such matters, the conjurers often turn to us for help. And before you ask, there's good reason why they would rather not see to this particular task themselves.
Leih Aliapoh 	The creatures in question possess abilities which can cause problems for the magically inclined. But that's quite enough about conjurers' troubles! Luciane taught you how to discern an enemy's key traits, did she not? Well, now you'll need to do so while maintaining situational awareness, lest you be overrun.
Leih Aliapoh 	Consider this a comprehensive review of her lessons and mine own. Your orders are as follows: head out into the East Shroud, and there put down eight tree slugs and eight vultures, using all of the skills you have acquired thus far. Good hunting, [Player Name].
 	
Leih Aliapoh 	Judging by your smug expression, I'd say you've acquired a feel for maneuvering to exploit enemy weaknesses whilst covering your own.
Leih Aliapoh 	Vultures are wont to keep their opponents at wing's length, and their attacks will send you flying. The solution to this is simple: maneuver to the rear.
Leih Aliapoh 	Tree slugs, on the other hand, have an annoying knack of disrupting spellcasting with their secretions. As such, you would do well to keep the creatures away from any mages in your party.
Leih Aliapoh 	Needless to say, good positioning is the key to success in battle─which is why it is absolutely essential that you know your target's traits.
Leih Aliapoh 	The knowing of these traits is a fundamental part of hunting. Before the Keepers of the Moon conceived of archery, they dwelt not in the city, but the forest. For my people, hunting was a way of life.
Leih Aliapoh 	Hmmm... In hindsight, I suppose this was more a lesson on hunting than on archery. Still, Luciane knows well my past─mayhap that was her intent.
Leih Aliapoh 	Hunting, too, is an art. Before I came to Gridania, I never gave it much thought. But the more I think of home, the more I begin to realize...
Leih Aliapoh 	Ahem! Forgive me. I'm not given to fits of sentiment. Truly. Forget I said anything.
Leih Aliapoh 	But do not forget that a hunter must recognize her/his prey's weakness and strike swiftly when the opportunity presents itself.
Leih Aliapoh 	That concludes the lesson. Now, I suggest you pay Luciane a visit─she is doubtless eager to hear from you.
Luciane 	It is good to see you, [Player Name]. I hope you have learned much from Leih.
Silvairre 	You, adventurer! Is it true? Are you the one who slew the tree slugs and vultures?
Silvairre 	Do not take me for a fool. You cannot conceal the truth from this archer's eye.
Silvairre 	How dare she entrust the security of our people to the hands of a stranger! I knew Miqo'te were reckless, but she is downright irresponsible! Shame on her!
Silvairre 	Did I not warn you that it was folly to suffer that woman's presence in our guild, Luciane? Every time she wastes an arrow on game, she drags our noble art back into the darkness.
Silvairre 	Aye, and this girl/boy, too. She/He is an embarrassment to us all!
Luciane 	That is quite enough, Silvairre.
Luciane 	Your skill with the bow is undeniable, as is your love for our nation. Yet there is much and more you have yet to learn about archery.
Luciane 	[Player Name] has matured greatly in the short time that s/he has been with us. You know this to be true.
Silvairre 	...
Luciane 	I suggest you come to terms with [Player Name]'s presence here─you will be giving her her/him his next lesson, after all. Unless of course you have any objections? Good.
Luciane 	As for you, [Player Name]─I would have you devote yourself wholly to training ahead of your lesson with Silvairre. Suffice it to say, he will not be an easy instructor to impress.
Silvairre 	On that we can agree.
Quest complete.	Quest complete.
