=== Walkthrough ===
*Enter the [[Altar Room]] from [[Castle Oztroja]], for a cut-scene with [[Hooknox]] to start the quest.
**You will be given the option of whether or not to begin the quest; if you choose to not take the quest, you will not be given the chance to start it again, until the Conquest Ranking on Sunday of the following week.

*Go to [[Windurst Woods]], to the Weavers' Guild and talk with [[Ponono]], the Clothcraft Guildmaster, for a cut-scene. [[Ponono]] will need a [[Velvet Cloth]], [[Rainbow Cloth]], and 10,000 gil to help out.
** You are able to cancel the Yagudo Headgear quest (A Moral Manifest?) by talking with Ponono again.
NOTE : The quest can only be cancelled if you have not advanced the quest by trading her the requested items.

*Trade the requested items and gil to [[Ponono]] at the same time.
**Zone and wait until at least the next day (after 0:00 Vana'diel time) to talk to Ponono again for a cut-scene, at which point you will receive a [[Yagudo Cutting]] item, and the recipe of the [[Yagudo Headgear]] that requires it. (Note: If you wish to receive another Yagudo Cutting, you can get more from Ponono for 300,000 gil each. {{Verification}})

*The [[Yagudo Cutting]] item is used in a high skill Clothcraft recipe to craft the level 61 headwear [[Yagudo Headgear]], which is required for the rest of the quest. (Neither the [[Yagudo Headgear]] nor the [[Yagudo Cutting]] can be sold via the Auction House).

*Return to the [[Altar Room]] while wearing the [[Yagudo Headgear]], for another cut-scene and to receive a key item.
**Select the Stone Lid in the [[Altar Room]] while wearing the headgear. The key item will disappear and 7 angry Yagudo Notorious Monsters will arrive!

*The main Yagudo NM that needs to be killed here is the [[Yagudo Avatar]]; once it is killed, the others will disappear. It may be possible to Sleep/Lullaby the rest of the Yagudo and kill the Yagudo Avatar, to make the fight easier.
**The Other Yagudo share hate with the [[Yagudo Avatar]]. They also seem to 2hr when he 2hrs. (They do sleep with no real problem, both sleepga and lullaby landed with no real effort{{Verification}}).

*Once the [[Yagudo Avatar]] is defeated, equip the [[Yagudo Headgear]] and select the Stone Lid again for a cut-scene.

*Trade the [[Yagudo Headgear]] to the Stone Lid; there will be another cut-scene and that headgear will be replaced by [[Tsoo's Headgear]].

*Zone out and back into the [[Altar Room]], for a cut-scene that ends the quest, and a [[Gold Beastcoin]] reward.
　
;Notes:The beastman headgear quests consist of [[An Understanding Overlord?]], [[A Moral Manifest?]], [[A Generous General?]] and [[An Affable Adamantking?]]. You cannot have more than one active.
