“At the completion of the Enclave Demesne, the Shazenkai initiate an ambitious plan to revive an important place of learning─ Rissai-juku, a school for those with a thirst for knowledge!
— In-game description
Doman Reconstruction: Minazuki is a level 70 quasi-quest and a part of the Doman Reconstruction storyline. Specifically, this quest covers the restoration of the Rissai-juku. There are no true steps to this quest, but donating more items continues the story and further improves the school. In addition, completing parts of this quest will increase the rate of gratuities paid for donations (200%), as well as the weekly budget (25,000 gil per week).
The first part of the quest starts after players have donated items worth a total of 160,000 gil to the Donation Basket.
Dialogue
160,000 Gil Donated
Kozakura: On behalf of the Shazenkai, [Player], I thank you for your support.
Kozakura: Although construction of the school is proceeding quicker than expected, it is still little more than a place for the students to gather. Nonetheless, Minazuki has already started tutoring there.
Kozakura: The sheer enthusiasm on the faces of the children is a sight to behold! I am sure that Minazuki will not mind if you call in to observe one of the lessons.
Kozakura: I recommend going to the school to see what a positive change your donations have brought about. And who knows─you may even learn something while you are there!
Shimogare: Minazuki has asked me to help look after the children, but they are generally so well behaved there is not much for me to do.
Hachisuba: The most important thing when building a playground is to make it safe. No sharp corners for the children to bash their heads on!
Ishibushi: I have a feeling the ceiling is a bit higher than we need it...
Yozan: I heard you've been making lots of donations! That's what Miss Minazuki says anyway.
Shiun: History's interesting but I like doing sums. There's always a right answer!
Koharu: It's funny sitting in a school while it's still being built! Maybe there's something we can do to help?
Rokka: I love school! Can we still come here when we're older?
Minazuki: Oh, this is a welcome surprise! So, what do you think of our school? With a roof and sturdy walls, we can study without worrying about the weather.
Minazuki: On the other hand, the bookshelves are looking rather empty. I have my own copies of most of the texts, but listening to me reading them aloud does nothing for the children's literacy.
Minazuki: Luckily, for today's lesson on Rissai, we have all the books we need. Are you familiar with this pivotal figure?
Yozan: Really? Then why don't you join our lesson?
Koharu: "Never pass up an opportunity to learn.“ That's what Miss Minazuki always says!
Minazuki: Would you like to take a seat?
Minazuki: Rissai was a renowned samurai who once served Doma.
Minazuki: Not only was he a loyal and gifted swordsman, he was also a master tactician and well versed in the use of firearms. Above all else, however, he was a learned man, and spent much of his time reading.
Minazuki: When his days as his lord's vassal came to an end, he established a school that became known as “Rissai-juku.”
Minazuki: Unlike most others at the time, it was not only for the children of samurai or those of high social standing, but for everyone. Rich or poor, all were accepted as students.
Minazuki: The school held a special place in our community and remained open after his death, with some of his former pupils becoming tutors themselves.
Rokka: So that's where our school got its name...
Koharu: Ah! Miss Minazuki was one of his students!
Minazuki: Yes, I was. I spent many happy years at the Rissai-juku, first as a pupil and later as a teacher. But all that came to an end when the Garleans invaded. They closed the school and sought to undo all the good it had done.
Minazuki: Even so, some of the older generation, such as myself, continued to teach Doman values in secret. The lessons we used to have together were one such example.
Minazuki: But now that the Empire is gone, we can teach as we please, without fear of reprisal. That is why I decided to reopen Rissai-juku.
Minazuki: The decades of oppression could not crush the Doman spirit. Much like the shazenso, we survive even under the harshest conditions. When they cut us down, we sprout anew, because our roots are strong.
Yozan: We'll never give in to those dogs! Doma forever!
Minazuki: My sentiments exactly. Now, who would like to read the next chapter to the class?
Children: Me! Me!
System: Lessons are being held at Rissai-juku, and the students are eager to learn more of Doma's history and traditions.
System: As you continue to contribute to the Shazenkai and the reconstruction effort, in what other ways might the Doman Enclave grow and change?
System: Furthermore, as a result of the enclave's expansion, the rate of gratuities paid for donations has increased, as well as the weekly budget.
Minazuki: It brings me great joy to have such attentive pupils. Were it not for your donations, we would have nowhere to study. May the kami bless you.
