Walkthrough
- Speak with a Gate Guard to accept the mission.
- Trade 6 Crystals to get the mission.
- Visit Iron Eater at the President's Office in Metalworks.
- Head for (G-5) in Western Altepa Desert (take the tunnel), and enter Quicksand Caves Map 7.
- Make your way to (H-8) and open the weighted door.
- At (G-11), you'll find yourself in a small room. Clear it out, and then check the Galka Statue to spawn 3 Antica NMs. They can be slept.
- Note: This fight is trivial at 99 with trusts.
- It is recommended you defeat them in that order, however a well-balanced party should have little difficulty with them.
- Check the Galka Statue again for a cutscene.
- Make your way to (D-12) of Western Altepa Desert and enter Quicksand Caves Map 5.
- This entrance is accessed at (C-11)→(D-11) in the far Southwest corner.
- You can also quickly access the next ??? via the Geomagnetic Fount Waypoint for Quicksand Caves. If you don't have this Fount yet, it is highly recommended you pick it up while in the vicinity.
- Inside, head through the eastern weighted door at (K-8) this will take you to Map 6.
- Go east to another weight device at (G-8) and proceed east again.
- The ??? you need is on the floor infront of the mural in the room at (H-8).
- Check the ??? for a cutscene with Zeid.
- Return to Iron Eater for a final cutscene.
