*Talk to [[Hariga-Origa]] in [[Windurst Waters]] in the west [[Optistery]] at {{Location Tooltip|area=Windurst Waters|map=south|pos=F-8}}; he asks you to bring items to fix smudges in a book.
*Obtain [[Slime Oil]], which drops from [[:Category:Slimes|slime]]s and can be bought from the [[Auction House]].
*Acquire a [[Frost Turnip]], which can be bought from the [[Auction House]] or the [[Valdeaunia|Valdeaunia regional merchant]]<span class="moggarden">, or obtained from [[Vegetable Seeds]] in [[Mog Garden]]</span>.
*Trade both items at the same time to [[Hariga-Origa]] for your reward.
**If you already purchased a {{KeyItem}}[[Map of Fei'Yin]] from a vendor, you do not receive another.
*Optional: after completing the quest, talk to [[Serukoko]] to learn the origin of the stain.
