== Walkthrough ==
*Go to [[Chateau d'Oraguille]] and click on the door to [[Prince Trion]]'s chambers. (If you were a Paladin when you completed [[A Boy's Dream]], you may have already received this cutscene.)

''You may finish the quest as any job at this point.''

*After the cutscene, head to {{location|Southern San d'Oria|M-7}} and talk to [[Vemalpeau]] , who lives inside the small house nearest Lion Square, on the bottom floor.
*Then go to Lion Spring's Tavern {{location|Southern San d'Oria|K-6}} and talk to [[Najjar]].
*Next, head to [[Count Caffaule's Manor]] {{location|Southern San d'Oria|B-6}} and talk to [[Ullasa]]. Ullasa mentions {{KeyItem}}[[Mique's Paintbrush]]. Once you see the paintbrush mentioned, you can go key hunting.
*Head to [[Castle Zvahl Baileys]] and obtain a [[Zvahl Coffer Key]]. (You can just pick the lock on Thief and skip the key farming.
**Keys can be dropped by [[Ahriman]], [[Abyssal Demon]]s, [[Arch Demon]]s, [[Blood Demon]]s, and [[Doom Demon]]s.
**To the right is a map of the coffer locations. Basically, the key dropping monsters are in the four corners and the tunnels leading to the four corners. To get to these corners, you need to drop down into four different holes. However, the northwest hole will only lead to the northwest corner, and once you drop, you must make your way back up to get to a different hole.
*Open a coffer to obtain {{KeyItem}}[[Mique's Paintbrush]]. Coffer can be opened on any job.
**'''Note''': If you have a current artifact quest active from this coffer, the coffer will produce the artifact and not {{KeyItem}}[[Mique's Paintbrush]]. *If you have completed an AF quest but the item is stored on a slip you will get AF and not the Key item*
**'''Note''': This can be picked as a Thief, since Paladin does not have to be your main job to obtain the paintbrush.
*Return to and talk to [[Vemalpeau]] at {{location|Southern San d'Oria|M-7}}.
*Proceed upstairs in [[Vemalpeau|Vemalpeau's]] house. Immediately to your left, there are three spots that can be examined. Click on the painting on the wall above the first spot and select the option to "look behind the frame" and then "open and examine" to obtain a {{KeyItem}}[[Strange Sheet of Paper]].
*(optional) Return to [[Vemalpeau]] who mentions his son's commanding officer.
*Go to "Helbort's Blades" located at {{location|Southern San d'Oria|K-7}} and talk to [[Exoroche]], who tells you to go to [[Davoi]].
*Go to {{location|Davoi|G-9}} there is a [[Village Well]]. The person who needs this quest is the one who will touch the well and immediately spawn two NMs: [[Three-eyed Prozpuz]] (RNG) and [[One-eyed Gwajboj]] (PLD).
**A full alliance of level 55+, a full well rounded party, or high level help is recommended.
**The area should be cleared of Orcs, which link with the NMs.
*Defeat the NMs to obtain the [[Well Weight]].
**''[[One-eyed Gwajboj]] drops the [[Well Weight]] regardless of whether or not the other NM is killed.''
**After killing the NMs, ''only one [[Well Weight]] drops''. So if you have more than one PLD who needs the quest, you must kill them both again.
*Trade the [[Well Weight]] to the Village Well for a cutscene and the {{KeyItem}}[[Knight's Confession]].
*Next head to {{location|Northern San d'Oria|J-9}} and talk to [[Ailbeche]], who mentions [[Jugner Forest]].
*Go to the Maiden's Spring located at {{location|Jugner Forest|E-6}}. Approach the edge of the pond for a cutscene.
**If you arrive by chocobo, you do not need to dismount to get the cutscene.
*Finally, head back to San d'Oria where you may optionally talk to [[Ailbeche]] and [[Exoroche]] or simply head to [[Chateau d'Oraguille]] and talk to [[Prince Trion]] for a final cutscene and your reward.

*Although the quest is technically over after talking with Trion, the {{KeyItem}}[[Knight's Confession]] will remain in your inventory until speaking with [[Vemalpeau]] at {{location|Southern San d'Oria|M-7}} one last time. Giving him his son's confession serves as a bit of closure, though this is entirely optional.
