Side Quest: Licensed To Reave

Quest Accepted!

Nothing seems shady about this at all.

While passing through the Seventh Sage, you'll come across a man named Mordyn who has an offer you simply couldn't refuse.

Well, you could, but you'd be losing out on a sweet 110 gil. All you have to do is help out the captain of the Kraken's Arms.

Yes, they are a pirate crew, according to Mordyn. No need to be worried, right...?

You named your ship Misery? What a cheery bunch.

The captain of the Kraken's Arm, Carvallain, welcomes you warmly. He trades in "spices" that many consider rare or valuable. His request for you is simple enough, though.

Simply take two pouches of his "spices" to hand out to Ginnade at the Coral Tower and Lyngsath at the Bismarck.

Deliver two samples and report back. Simple.

Firesand? That isn't just another word for spice?

The first goes to Ginnade at the Coral Tower. Dropping it off with her causes her to reveal that the "spice" sample is actually firesand. It would seem our pirate friend uses the term "spice" to refer to literally anything he brings in. It is easy to assume he raided a Garlean Empire ship to acquire it... A dangerous feat indeed.

One sample left to deliver.

A root? He really does use the word "spice" for everything.

The second sample has to be taken to Lyngsath over at the Bismarck, located just a short distance to the west of the Seventh Sage across a short bridge.

This time it is a root instead of firesand, and not just any root either. It was grown in Othard, which is under imperial rule at the moment.

Just how did he get it, anyway...?

So there are good pirates running around?

When you return to Carvallain, he discusses how times have changed for pirates, and that he changed with those times. He now operates within the law, using his talents to attack enemies of Limsa Lominsa. A heavily-armed trader indeed...
