The appearance of golems of unknown geological composition spurred Amaljina & Sons Mineral Concern into hiring the player to assess the potential for profit, hence the player being tasked with obtaining a chunk of brickman.

Upon bringing the specified item to the beefy businessman a bunch of associate ladies offer the player some puff-puff in a suggestive manner. However, it turns out to be being smothered by small furry creatures.

The event quest is started by speaking with Havak Alvak of the Mythril Eye in Ul'dah, Steps of Nald (X:12 Y:8).

The player is tasked to participate in the FATE Brick by Brick followed by the FATE Brick by Stone Brick or Brick by Gold Brick in order to obtain a chunk of brickman.
