Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers[]
Grenoldt had been spending some time in the Tempest, unable to find inspiration to make the Ondo's ritual lamp. Without it, the Ondo would not agree to lower the barrier to Amaurot. The Warrior of Light was able to inspire the smith and he completed the lamp.
Final Fantasy XIV: Endwalker[]
After some time away from the Crystarium, Grenoldt returned. He met Chora-Zoi, a budding artisan, and took her on as his apprentice. The two worked, with the financial support of Mowen and other affluent people of Norvrandt, on creating a new line of high quality crafting tools.
