※This quest is available for a limited time only.

— In-game description

Rewards

• 1   Bohemian's Gloves
• 1   Guardian Corps Gauntlets

Walkthrough

• Get Quest from NPC South of Limsa Shard Plaza, Limsa Lominsa Lower Decks (x9,y12)

• Go to Quarterstone in Western La Noscea and look for the FATE "Tender Buttons" at (x32,y28). The FATE will spawn a large dodo-type creature.

• OR go to Three-malm Bend in Middle La Noscea and look for the FATE "Sister Crustacean" at (x16,y12). The FATE will spawn at the large X on the map (where the roads cross). The fate spawns giant crabs.

• One of the FATES will give you 2 Otherworldly Parcel. Note that players need to receive Gold or Silver rating on the FATE in order to receive the quest items.

• One Parcel is needed to complete the quest and awards you either Guardian Corps Gauntlets (female) or Bohemian's Gloves (male).

• Additional parcels can be spent at Vendor for Lightning Weapons which is to the left of original NPC quest giver. (9 Parcels are needed to complete the quest and purchase a weapon for each class.)

• Lightning does not show up at every spawn of these two FATES (possibly every other spawn); if she is present you'll see her talking as the FATE carries on.

Steps

• Present evidence of your experiences to Petyr Winsome.

Journal

• Petyr Winsome, a reporter for the Harbor Herald in Limsa Lominsa, wishes to interview an adventurer.
  • ※This quest is available for a limited time only.

• Petyr Winsome wishes you to participate in one of the monster-culling operations taking place at Three-malm Bend in middle La Noscea and Quarterstone in western La Noscea, and regale him with an account of your firsthand experience.
  • ※Please note that you will be unable to complete this quest after the seasonal event has ended. For details, please check the Lodestone.

• During your efforts to whittle down the rising numbers of monstrous wildlife, you encounter an enigmatic knight who introduces herself as "Lightning." After retrieving an odd parcel she left behind after the battle, you return to Limsa Lominsa to share your experiences with Petyr Winsome. At the reporter's insistence, you both tear open the strange parcel to reveal gloves of highly unusual design. Petyr, more than pleased with your contribution to his article, gladly places the handwear into your keeping. You are left wondering, however, who Lightning truly is, and whence the warrior has come.
