Before you start
Story progress
Chapter 6 or later
Fandom's availability table: Chapter 6 Started; Xeno Series Wiki says Chapter 5 (after Zeke joins). The quest's Tantal objectives need Chapter 6+ access either way. Pyra is required, so the window is Chapters 6–7 or from Chapter 10.
How the quest unlocks
Talk to Godfrey at the Uraya Merc Barracks in Fonsa Myma after unlocking his level 4 Key Affinity node. That node is NOT trust-based: it requires completing the Merc Mission 'Allies of Justice 6', the last of a six-mission chain that begins automatically in Uraya once Godfrey is resonated (every mission needs Godfrey as merc leader; AoJ 6 is received in Tantal and needs 3 Blades with Strength 35+, 2 Greataxe wielders, 1 with Justice-Loving Soul). Fandom's quest infobox additionally lists Godfrey's 'Justice Blizzard' level 3 node (use his favorite Meat pouch item, Estral Steak, x4) as a prerequisite.
Field skill checks
- Passionate Soul Lv 1 (dialogue check with Krujah in Argentum) — Godfrey-exclusive skill
- Kind Soul Lv 1 (dialogue check with Adella in Mor Ardain) — Godfrey-exclusive skill
- Justice-Loving Soul Lv 2 (dialogue checks with Jaruru in Teddim AND Harghal in Tantal — needed twice); leveled by completing Allies of Justice 3-4
- Passionate Soul Lv 3 (second Harghal dialogue check); leveled by completing Allies of Justice 1-2
Also required
- Merc Missions 'Allies of Justice' 1 through 6 completed (chain; Godfrey as leader; ~20 min each, reducible to 5 min with the right dispatched field skills)
- Xeno Series Wiki: Nia, Tora, Morag, Zeke, Pyra and Godfrey must be in the party
- Godfrey's Justice Blizzard Lv 3 node unlocked (per Fandom quest infobox)
Walkthrough
- Accept the quest from Godfrey at the Uraya Merc Barracks in Fonsa Myma; a cutscene leads straight into a fight with a Lv 40 Mysterious Driver (Sandstream).
- Travel to Argentum and investigate Harghal near the Chairman's Room, then ask Krujah about her in the Rumbletum Canteen.
- Press Krujah on what happened — answer 'With a passionate soul' (Passionate Soul Lv 1 field skill check).
- Go to the lower-area slum in the Admar Storage Zone, Mor Ardain, and ask Adella (Harghal's mother) about Harghal, then press her — answer 'With a kind soul' (Kind Soul Lv 1 check).
- Find Harghal's trail in the Old City of Teddim, defeat 3 Nenz Rodonya there, then question Jaruru — answer 'With a soul of justice' (Justice-Loving Soul Lv 2 check).
- Speak to Tuvarri in Port Anangham, then collect 2 Titanic Craniums in Gormott and 5 Ancient Chalices in Mor Ardain before Tuvarri will share smuggling info.
- Follow the smuggling ship: head to Genbu Port in Tantal, get info from Ransenion in Theosoir, then head to the Old Gelgemos Gate.
- Question Harghal about the smuggling twice: first 'With a soul of justice' (Justice-Loving Soul Lv 2 check), then 'With a passionate soul' (Passionate Soul Lv 3 check).
- Return to Theosoir, now under attack by drugged monsters: defeat 3 Uhrl Volff, 3 Noral Volff and 3 Mirrl Volff, and help 4 unmarked citizens (elder outside Anastatia's inn, youth near Placks Patisserie, woman through the doorway across from Placks Patisserie, kid on the building next to Lectica Vegetables).
- Defeat the Donya Volff, then defeat Sandstream ('The Evil Sandstream') in Theosoir to finish the quest.
Good to know
- The real grind is BEFORE the quest: the six-mission 'Allies of Justice' merc chain gates his level 4 Key Affinity (AoJ 6) and levels the exclusive Soul field skills the quest's dialogue checks demand. Start dispatching Godfrey's merc group early — each mission takes ~20 minutes of real time (reducible to 5).
- This is one of the longest Blade Quests in the game, hopping across five titans (Uraya, Argentum, Mor Ardain, Gormott, Tantal) with two fetch objectives mid-way — don't start it right before you want to do story content.
- During the Theosoir defense the four 'left behind' citizens are unmarked on the map; use the locations listed in the walkthrough step or you will wander the city.
