*Trade your [[pickaxe]] to an [[Excavation Point]] until you receive a [[Wyvern Egg]].

*Return to [[Morjean]] in {{Location|Northern San d'Oria|L-7}} manuscript room in the Cathedral, and view a cut scene

*Defeat [[Cyranuce M Cutauleon]] to complete the quest.
**''Defeated solo by most non-mage jobs at level 45 rather than 30. May need a higher level for mage jobs. Individual experience may vary depending on job/gear/buffs/etc. See [[Talk:Cyranuce_M_Cutauleon|Testimonials]]. ''

==Notes==
*You will need to be able to get into the [[Chateau d'Oraguille]], and therefore must be [[Rank]] 2 if you are from [[San d'Oria]], or at least have started the 2-3 [[Mission]] in [[Windurst]] or [[Bastok]]
* ''If you have the [[Scythe]] weapon skill quest [[Souls in Shadow]] active, you cannot complete the [[Novalmauge]] part of the quest until you complete the [[Scythe of Trials]]. Also, it's possible to obtain the [[Scythe of Trials]] while talking to [[Novalmauge]] to flag [[Dragoon]]. Choose your dialog options carefully.''
**''Despite having the Scythe of Trials quest in progress, at least one person was able to complete DRG without issue.''
*''Although the cut-scene with [[Novalmauge]] tells you to ask the archeologist [[Oiheaurese]] to learn of dragons, he is an NPC who only appears in the cutscene with [[Morjean]].''
*While not an instanced BCNM fight, this fight is worth 1 HAAP point for anyone that assists you in completion of this quest, if they have completed the quest themselves
