Axemaster Wyrnzoen appears to have some urgent news for you.
Quest description
Bringing Down the Mountain is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
Journal[]
- Wyrnzoen informs you that Kujata has been spotted in lower La Noscea. Before seeking to do battle with the rampaging beast, the axemaster bids you first visit Sighard at the Red Rooster Stead.
- Sighard has once again begged you to slay the beast responsible for the death of his parents. It seems, however, that you will not be alone in the task. Speak with Solkwyb and Broenbhar before leaving the Stead, and enlist their aid for the coming battle.
- Solkwyb and Broenbhar are both eager to stand at your side as you seek to bring down the Stampeding Mountain. Follow Broenbhar's advice, and track down Kujata by following the beast's trail of destruction.
- You have found the broken remnants of a pot, but Kujata is nowhere to be seen. Continue following the trail left by him and his pack of rapacious scavengers.
- You have discovered the shattered pieces of a barrel on the side of the road, but have yet to spot Kujata. Continue following the trail of destruction left behind by the monster and his pack.
- You have stumbled upon the splintered remains of a crate, but Kujata himself appears to have since moved on. Continue your search for the vile beast and the ravenous creatures that follow him.
- You have finally caught up with Kujata and ended the murderous aurochs' terrible rampage. Wyrnzoen appears with Sighard and Neddard in tow, just in time to help celebrate your hard-won victory. Sighard is overcome with gratitude. Now that you have freed the boy from his burden of vengeance, he has decided to pursue the path of a hero. All that remains is to speak with your waiting colleagues.
- Wyrnzoen, Solkwyb, and Broenbhar all applaud the mighty deed you have accomplished. Return to Limsa Lominsa, and speak with the axemaster once more back at the guild.
- Wyrnzoen, having imparted to you all the knowledge of axecraft that he possesses, bids you venture beyond the teachings of the guild. And once you have attained a new peak of marauder perfection, he hopes you will return to share your discoveries. The world─with all its wondrous and deadly challenges─is yours to explore.

|---|---|
| Wyrnzoen | [Player Name]. Your confrontation with the beast is at hand─Kujata has made his presence known. |
| Wyrnzoen | Reports place the creature to the northeast of the Red Rooster Stead, in the vicinity of the Grey Fleet. |
| Wyrnzoen | There is little more for me to say but this: harness all the strength you have built through your labors of sweat and blood, and unleash it full-fury upon Kujata and his menagerie of scavengers. |
| Wyrnzoen | Sighard yet lies abed, trusting in your strength and praying for your victory. |
| Wyrnzoen | I ask that you go to the lad before the battle, and tell him you venture forth to fell the object of his vengeance. Such news should cheer his ailing heart. |
| Wyrnzoen | The time is come, [Player Name]! May your axe strike deep and true! |
| Sighard | [Player Name]... I'm sorry fer makin' trouble. |
| Sighard | No, I deserved what I got. It's me own fault fer not believin' in ye... |
| Sighard | B-But ye came back anyway! And now yer gonna take that axe to Kujata's head, ain't ye!? |
| Sighard | I know ye can beat that bastard! Ye got to! |
| Sighard | Please, [Player Name]! Ye got to make 'im pay! |
| Solkwyb | I heard Kujata had reared his ugly head again, and reckoned you'd not be too far behind. |
| Solkwyb | I hope you won't object to me lending what aid I can. We've been through much, you and I, and I would see this tale to its end. |
| Solkwyb | Broenbhar, well, he felt much the same. So here we are─a pack of two to offset the ravenous beasts that follow in Kujata's wake. |
| Broenbhar | Might be as I'm stickin' me nose in where it ain't wanted, but I couldn't abide the thought o' ye facin' that monster solo. Kujata's got his friends, so it's only fair if ye've got a couple, too. |
| Broenbhar | An' what're friends for if not to lighten yer load? I already did some o' the groundwork for ye. Seems like a farmer an' his wain have fallen victim to the fiend's pack. |
| Broenbhar | If we follow the trail o' destruction, it might just lead us to the big bugger himself. |
| Sighard | [Player Name]! |
| Wyrnzoen | It appears our timing was fortuitous. |
| Sighard | The axemaster carried me 'ere so's I could see... |
| Sighard | Ye did it. Ye really did it... |
| Sighard | <sniffle> Ma? Da? Do ye see? [Player Name] killed the bastard! 'E's finally dead! |
| Sighard | Thank ye. Thank all of ye. |
| Sighard | [Player Name]? Do ye reckon I could learn to swing an axe like that? |
| Sighard | When I's bigger, I mean. I want to protect folk, too. Keep 'em safe from...ye know, monsters an' things. |
| Wyrnzoen | If you train hard, then naught is beyond your reach, young man. |
| Sighard | Then that's what I'll do! I'll train every single day! |
| Sighard | Ye'll see! I'll be the strongest 'ero there ever was! |
| Wyrnzoen | It is done, [Player Name]. You have answered the boy's prayers, and upheld the pride of the guild. |
| Wyrnzoen | Hold your head high, marauder! I shall be awaiting your triumphant return to Limsa Lominsa! |
| Solkwyb | Well done, [Player Name]! I knew from the first moment we met that you would rise to meet any challenge! |
| Broenbhar | I saw it with me own eyes, an' I can still scarce believe it. Ye brought down the Mountain... |
| Wyrnzoen | That was truly a mighty feat, [Player Name]. Never have I seen a marauder so dedicated to attaining the pinnacle of her/his discipline. |
| Wyrnzoen | In recognition of your achievements, I, Axemaster Wyrnzoen, pass on to you our guild's final technique: the Thrill of Battle. |
| Wyrnzoen | This skill teaches you to embrace the fear and danger of combat, allowing you to push well beyond the normal limits of your stamina. |
| Wyrnzoen | Though the thought brings me both joy and sadness, there is naught more I can teach you. May the memories of your time here at the guild sustain you as you strive for ever greater heights of perfection. |
| Wyrnzoen | Experience, now, shall be your tutor. There will always be greater foes and deadlier challenges on which to test your blade─of that, I am certain. |
| Wyrnzoen | You enter a realm of our craft in which even I have never set foot. I only hope that when you reach the very boundaries of our art, you will return to share your triumphs with us. Until then, [Player Name], may your axe ever swing true! |
