'''Klynthota:''' ...Ahem, pardon me. The moogle meant no harm, I'm sure, but this marks the third time this past fortnight I've found myself in possession of a delivery intended for another.
'''Klynthota:''' I do not expect all moogles to be well versed in Roegadyn naming conventions. But when they are unsure of the intended recipient, could they at least have the courtesy to ''ask'' before dumping it off and flitting away unseen?
'''Klynthota:''' Look closely, here: this missive is clearly marked for my brother, Ryssfloh Skarnfrusk''syn''. He makes his home in Limsa, and serves on guard duty at the Octant more often than not.
'''Klynthota:''' I've a mind to send this letter right back where it came from, but my confidence in those furballs wears thin. Aye, put my trust in them, and I'd not be surprised to see the letter end up in the hands of Hyllfyr himself!
'''Klynthota:''' Perhaps you could deliver this letter to Ryssfloh the next time your travels take you to Limsa? And tell him that though his sister would never ''think'' of reading his mail, she thinks he could do ''much'' better for himself than some vapid tavern wench.

'''Delivery Moogle:''' You have my word that we delivery moogles shall redouble—retriple, even!—our efforts to ensure that no precious parcel or missive ever again goes astray. Behold, for I shall now perform for you the moogle dance of inimitable integrity!
'''Ryssfloh:''' Settle your wings, my moogle friend—I don't believe that will be necessary. And by that I mean, for the love of the gods, just…''don't''.
'''Ryssfloh:''' Wait a bleedin' minute...am I to believe I'm talkin' to a moogle? In the flesh!? Well, if this isn't a rare occasion! Har har!
'''Ryssfloh:''' ...And Llymlaen take me if you aren't a cute little bugger! Just moments ago, I'd half a mind to wring the incompetent courier's neck—but I'm not so petty a man as to vent my frustrations on a defenseless ball of fur.

'''Ryssfloh:''' Anyroad, what's–her–face/what's-his-face here was kind enough to deliver my letter, and I have your word that no more mistakes will be made. As far as I'm concerned, this is all water under the bridge.
'''Delivery Moogle:''' Oh, you are too kind—the kindest, good sir! As for ''you'', my adventuring friend, I daresay you would make a superlative delivery [Race] if you put your mind to it.
