Before begin to create your Relic Weapon, you must:
An Unexpected Proposal

Rowena

Your journey begins with "An Unexpected Proposal" quest. This is a one time quest and does not need to be repeated; further weapons will start from  Soul Without Life. For this quest, simply:
- Speak to Rowena (x5,y5) in Idyllshire.
- Travel to Alpha Quadrant in Azys Lla to speak with Ardashir (x7,y11).
|
The following 3 quests need to be completed in order, for each relic, and are job-specific. However, you can work on multiple relics at one time. An example is picking up 
Soul Without Life on your PLD, whilst working on Coming into Its Own for your WAR.
