Part 21: The Legend of the Zodiac Braves

Personality/Goals: Delacroix, like nearly all members of the Church, is in on the Zodiac Brave scandal and wants to ressurrect Ultima. His Holy Stone, Scorpio, is assosciated with Cuchulainn. He's ruthless, but can put on a good enough show to fool even the shrewdest warriors like Ramza and Ovelia. The following items are of a fixed price and can only be purchase or traded for from NPCs. Ideally, it's better to prepare 4 Bombard Cores from the respective GC Headquarters, since these items can be purchased without starting the Zodiac Braves quest. Method Malice and Labor of Love start the quest by obtaining the material from the. In FFT, the Zodiac Brave Story is a legend that 12 heroes of ancient legend each came forth bearing a stone carrying a zodiac symbol and used these to end a 100 year war involving the countries Zeltennia, Fovoham, Lionel, Limberry, Lesalia, Gallionne, and Mullonde. They use the stones to defeat a demon summoned by the King of Mullonde.

Ha! Moogle. Norma gets Moogle now of all times. I'll use Summon, like, twice, and then leave it behind for Norma's true purpose.
Anyway, Princess, it's too dangerous, you should go somewhere else.
Well then, don't come crying to me if someone blows us up.
Taking Agrias's stuff. We're at Lionel!
See? I can't help but wonder, what dangers await us there?
None at all, actually. Just some friendly Gryphon knights.
: I came from Orbonne to save the son of God, St. Ajora. Open the gate!
: Saving the St. Ajora is the will of the high priest. The gate will open for he who would save the high priest. Open the gate!
That they show you how the gate opens means you should remember it.
I don't think it's dramatic enough.
There we go.
Anyway, the party goes in to meet The Cardinal Draclau.
: Moreover, I'll send a man to the High Priest in Murond. We'll do something to expose Larg's scheme, and keep the Princess from danger.
: Will High Priest Funeral help us?
: Don't worry, Agrias. I'm with you. You must be strong to make the Princess feel at ease. Make yourselves comfortable in this old castle until word comes from the holy land.
: Thank you for your kindness.
: St. Ajora is with us. There's no need to worry. Young mechanic. I heard your wish too. I'll send troops to Goug, to destroy Bart Company.
: Thank you.
: That's all right... Is this it?
Cardinal Draclau reaches into his robes to reveal...
A red crystal, branded with the sign of Scorpio, that gleams with a ethereal light.
: What is that crystal?
: Have you ever heard of the 'Zodiac Brave Story'?
: You mean that fairy tale, we used to hear in church?
: Here now! You mean the church lied?
: N-no, I didn't mean that...
: 12 brave warriors fought against the Evil Lucavi who ruled the land. After a desperate battle, they sent Lucavi to Hades, and the land was peaceful. They each had crystals with zodiac signs on them, they were called 'Zodiac Braves'. Ever since then, whenever humans are attacked, the Braves come to save us.
: You're quite learned, Princess. Just as I expected.
: Mr. Simon taught me at the Orbonne Monastery. He also said St. Ajora and the Braves saved Ivalice from chaos.
Keep these lines in mind.

They're important, if only because the game uses the two terms interchangeably.
: I didn't think it really existed.
: They say its 'Divine Power' surpasses Lucavi's. I feel strange power, but it looks just like an ordinary crystal to me.

Mustadio has been silent the whole time, quietly fidgeting. Ramza notices.
: You saw the same stone underground?
: Many broken machine parts are buried there. But if the stone gets near the machines, they start to howl.
: But Rudvich wants to use its power to make weapons. My father told me never to give the stones to him. So they abducted him.
: Don't worry Mustadio. The church will see to his safety. While our men fight, we'll get the stone back.
: Y, yes, sir.
: Thank you, Ramza.
: I wish I could've been more help. Please be careful.

: That's very thoughtful. Don't worry. We'll be fine.

Ideally, it's better to prepare 4 Bombard Cores from the respective GC Headquarters, since these items can be purchased without starting the Zodiac Braves quest. Method Malice and Labor of Love start the quest by obtaining the material from the dungeons immediately and end with the requirement of purchasing the respective items. These items can be prepared ahead of time. However, A Ponze of Flesh and Treasured Mother can only start once you have obtained the relevant items. While completing your Soulgazed Nexus, it is good to cap your soldiery in preparation for purchasing the Bottle of Sacred Water (1,600 soldiery). Since you will only be able to purchase one, you will be running 3 quests simultaneously. So start saving up your Soldiery because you'll need in total 4 Sacred Waters! The advantage for this phase of your Relic progression is you are not required to use your Nexus weapon to obtain the materials. (DPS, rejoice..) As long as you have completed the dungeon, the chance of obtaining it's material may drop. (QQ if you have to run up to 30 times on a single dungeon just for that 1 drop).
