Walkthrough
- Begin quest by speaking with Chumimi in the basement of Heavens Tower, in Windurst.
- A fter the cutscene, trade a Silk Cloth to Koru-Moru (E-7) in Windurst Walls. Return to Chumimi afterwards to recieve the key item Sluice Surveyor Mk. I.
- Speak to Chumimi again to obtain Sluice Surveyor Mk. I.
- For next portion, Manafont is required, so make sure you are on Black Mage.
- Go to Toraimarai Canal
- You'll need to find two ??? points. For *ONE* of those points, you'll get a cutscene, then be asked for "the Mage's black power". Use Manafont, then check the ??? again for another cutscene. This is usually the second point listed, however there is anecdotal evidence that the first point can require it too.
- First point is in the North-west corner of (H-7)
- Second point is in (I-9)
- For the remaining portion of the quest you do NOT need to be on Black Mage.
- Go to (J-8) and click on the ??? for a cutscene and to pop Magic Sludge, a Dark Elemental NM.
- NM is highly resistant to physical damage and magic to a lesser extent
- Click ??? again for another cutscene
- Go back to Chumimi for final cutscene and reward.
- The following steps are optional.
- Speak to Kupipi in Heavens Tower to receive an earthen charm.
- Travel to Inner Horutoto Ruins and go through the Sealed Portal at the Gate of the Three Mages.
- Alternately, if you possess a Rhinostery certificate, you can enter Toraimarai Canal to get to this section of Inner Horutoto Ruins.
- Examine the Gate of Earth at (I-7) for a cutscene.
