Mognet (Final Fantasy IX)

Mognet is a mail delivery service between moogles! We can send and receive letters to and from moogles in other locations! Kupo! But delivery has been very sporadic lately! So I want you to help us deliver mail! Kupo!

Kupo explains Mognet to Vivi

Kupo asks Zidane to deliver a letter.

Mognet (モグネット, Mogunetto?) is the name of the moogle mail service used in Final Fantasy IX. It was created by Hiroyuki Ito, the game's director. Using it, moogles can send letters to each other. It is run from a hidden location called Mognet Central, and the moogle charged with delivering the letters is Artemicion. During Final Fantasy IX, the letters are not being delivered properly because Mognet Central's machine has broken down, so the moogles ask the party to deliver their mail in a long sidequest.

When a moogle wants the player to deliver mail, it will usually say, "I have a favor to ask, kupo!". After a number of deliveries have been made, the dialogue will change to "I haven't received any mail lately, kupo". When the player meets the moogle whom the letter is to be delivered to, they will say "I want mail! Kupo!". If the player refuses, they will say "I'm so sad, kupo...". The player can carry up to three letters at a time, and even after the party composition changes due to story events, mail can still be delivered. After visiting Mogmi and Moguta in Gizamaluke's Grotto, the player gets a Kupo Nut every time they deliver a letter, provided they do not have one already. The player can bring Kupo Nuts to Moguta for various prizes.

Deliveries

Mognet interactions are available when talking to save moogles.

Several letters must be delivered before certain plot events, or they can never be delivered. Not all letters need to be delivered to complete the Superslick sidequest; only the ones near the end of the game are necessary.

• Kupo to Monty: Kupo, the moogle in the church steeple in Alexandria, tells Vivi about Mognet, and requests that he help with delivery. Though the player is given a choice, they cannot actually refuse, as Kupo simply keeps begging until the player accepts. Monty can be found in the Evil Forest, hiding in a tree trunk by the spring.
• Mois to Gumo: Mois is the moogle frozen inside the Ice Cavern. Gumo can be found in the inn in Dali. Despite not liking Mois, Gumo takes the letter.
• Kumop to Mogki: Kumop is in the Dali underground storage area, hiding in a barrel with his pom-pom sticking out. Mogki is in the Lindblum Castle Guest Room.
• Mogki to Atla: After getting her letter, Mogki asks to send a letter herself. Atla is in Burmecia's Vault.
• Grimo to Nazna: In the Aerbs Mountains, South Gate, the moogle requests a letter be delivered. Nazna is at the Summit Station.
• Nazna to Mochos: Nazna gives the player a letter after being given hers. Mochos is in Gargan Roo.
• Atla to Monev: After Atla gets a letter, he wants to send one out to Monev in Cleyra's Trunk.
• Mopli to Serino: After the Alexandrian soldiers attack Cleyra, Mopli can be found in the sand pit where the Antlion attacked. Serino is on the Red Rose.
• Serino to Moodon: Once she gets her letter, Serino sends out her own. Moodon is at the inn in Lindblum, following the Alexandrian invasion.
• Mosh to Monty: Mosh is in the Alexandria chapel after the rescue attempt for Garnet. Monty has escaped from the Evil Forest, and is now at the Pinnacle Rocks.
• Moodon to Moonte: Moodon sends out a letter after the party delivers one to him. Moonte is at the Dragon's Gate of Lindblum.
• Kuppo to Kupo: Kuppo is the moogle in Fossil Roo's mining site. He must be dug out of the wall to get his letter. Kupo is still at the Alexandria chapel.
• Mogmatt to Suzuna: In Conde Petie's item shop is Mogmatt. In the Conde Petie Mountain Path is Suzuna.

• Mimoza to Mooel: Outside Oeilvert is Mimoza, who wants to send a letter to Mooel inside about the recent breakdown of Mognet.
• Mojito to Mogsam: Both are in the Desert Palace. Mojito sends a letter to Mogsam, who is in the library.
• Mogrika to Moolan: Mogrika is in Esto Gaza. After she gets a letter from Artemicion, she sends a letter to Moolan. Moolan is in Mount Gulug (the entrance to Esto Gaza, and therefore to Mount Gulug as well, is sealed off by roots from the Iifa Tree in the endgame).
• Moolan to Mogtaka: Moolan knows why Mognet has shut down, so he sends a letter to Mogtaka, who is also in Mount Gulug (as before, Mount Gulug is inaccessible in the endgame).
• Mogki to Kumool: Mogki, who is still in the same place in the guest room of Lindblum Castle, sends a letter to Kumool. Kumool is in Ipsen's Castle.
• Moorock to Mozme: In Bran Bal, Moorock is trapped in a pot. Despite never hearing of Mognet, he sends a letter to his buddy in a maze in Pandemonium.
• Kupo to Atla: Kupo in the Alexandria Bell Tower sends a letter to Atla in Burmecia. This begins a long letter chain. Kupo only gives this letter to the player after they have acquired the Invincible, and will do so regardless of whether they have already discovered Mognet Central.
• Atla to Mogryo: Mogryo is in the Black Mage Village in front of the chocobo stable.
• Mogryo to Kumool: Kumool is still in Ipsen's Castle.

  

  Mois at the Fossil Roo.

• Kumool to Mois: Mois used to be in the Ice Cavern, but it is now sealed off by Iifa Tree roots. Quina must be in the party to reach the entrance to Fossil Roo, where Mois can be found.
• Mois to Noggy: Noggy is at the synthesis shop in Daguerreo.
• Noggy to Kupo: As always, Kupo is at the chapel in Alexandria. The moogles have discovered what the problem with Mognet is. The party must talk to Ruby at Alexandria's theater and ask for some Superslick. When they talk to Artemicion in Mognet Central, the Superslick is used to fix the machine. The party gets a Protect Ring, and is congratulated for delivering # letters.

Letters

Below is a list of all the letters. Before Mognet breaks down, moogles will often have letters with them when the party first meets them. The content of some letters changes depending on the player's actions. The letters usually contain hints about Stiltzkin's appearances, commentary on the plot, and information about the Mognet breakdown.

If the player attempted the jump rope minigame with Vivi at the beginning in Alexandria, and skipped at least 50 times, then when the player meets Mosh (while controlling Steiner) in Alexandria Castle, he will have received the following letter from Kupo:

Skipping Champion Appears!
From Kupo to Mosh There was a kid who skipped [#]* times in a row today! It was amazing! Kupo! How did he do that? Can Mosh skip [#]* times? My best record is [#]*!

*The number is based upon the player's highest record in the minigame. Kupo's record is always equal to a third of Vivi's.

In the Evil Forest, near the crash site, is a moogle named Mosco. He has a letter for Zidane:

How Ya Doin'?
From Ruby to Zidane Zidane! Are you alright? I'm doin' good. I met an interesting stranger in Alexandria today! I'll tell you more soon. P.S. Tell the boys in Tantalus I said "Hi!"

The letter the player delivers from Kupo to Monty:

Prince on a White Horse
From Kupo to Monty I think Queen Brahne is up to something... but I suspect Princess Garnet even more! Kupo! She might leave soon... with a prince on a white horse... Maybe it's just my imagination...

Monty has another letter with him:

Stiltzkin on Ice
From Stiltzkin to Monty I'm in a very cold place right now It's really strange, it wasn't like this last time I came here... But I guess this is why I travel: to encounter the unexpected. Anyway, I'm gonna get outta here before I get trapped in ice!

The letter the player delivers from Mois to Gumo:

Trapped In Ice!
From Mois to Gumo Yo! Man, I got totally iced up by some dude with wings on his back! Stiltzkin passed me by without doin' anything! Is he rude or what? Of course, I couldn't say nothin', 'cause I was trapped in the ice!

When the party first meets Mogki, he has received a letter:

Stiltzkin Visited Me!
From Kumop to Mogki Stiltzkin visited me! Kupo! He said he found a place that seemed interesting, and then he left. I wish he stayed longer, kupo. Where did he go, anyway? Let me know when you find out! Kupo!

When the party first meets Moodon in the inn at Lindblum, he has a letter for Zidane:

Opening a Mini-Theater
From Ruby to Zidane Ain't y'all comin' back to Alexandria? I'm so lonely! Just kiddin'. I'm openin' a li'l Theater in an alley here. (A bartender pal o' mine is quittin' the saloon and gettin' into showbiz. He asked me to help.)

When the party first meets Moonte at the Dragon's Gate of Lindblum, he has received a letter:

Shelter From the Rain
From Stiltzkin to Moonte I left Lindblum and headed north. I walked trough the Mist and Gizamaluke to reach Burmecia for the very first time. It's raining, as expected. I'm going to look for shelter now...

When the party meets Mogmi in Gizamaluke's Grotto, she has received a letter if the winner of the Festival of the Hunt back in Lindblum got at least 100 points:

It Was So Exciting!
From Moodon to Mogmi This year's Festival of the Hunt Was sooo exciting! Kupo! The highest score was [#] points! [Insert Name]* won the title! Last year's winner, Belna, only got [#]* points! Oh, it was so much fun!!!

The letter the party delivers from Mogki to Alta:

Map of the Entire World in His Bag?
From Mogki to Atla I heard that Stiltzkin is heading in your direction. Kupo! I've never met him. Tell me what he's like if you meet him. Kupo! Check and see if he travels with a map of the entire world and with rare items, like the rumor says! Kupo!

The letter the party delivers from Grimo to Nazna:

Mary's Unrequited Love
From Grimo to Nazna I feel so sad whenever I see Mary, that part-time worker. Have you ever fallen in love? I've never fallen in love before, kupo. If watching someone else in love is so difficult, I wonder how difficult it is to actually fall in love myself?

When the party first meets Mogrich in the Knight's House in Treno, he has a letter:

Vube Desert
From Stiltzkin to Mogrich There's trouble in this rainy city. The guys I saw there were heading towards Vube Desert, west of Burmecia... They'll only find sandstorms. What could they possibly want? I'm gonna follow them and see...

The letter the player delivers from Nazna to Mochos:

Am I Right?
From Nazna to Mochos Grimo, in South Gate's Bohden Station, sent me a letter saying that he feels sad when he sees Mary in love... ... but I think he feels that way because Grimo himself is in love. Kupo... Am I right?

The letter the party delivers from Atla to Monev:

No More Pointy Hats!
From Atla to Monev Kupo! Strange people came into town and destroyed the entire place! What the heck is going on? Kupo! I don't wanna see any more pointy hats! Monev should be careful, too! Maybe you should move elsewhere...

When the party first meets Mopli in the Cleyra Inn, she has a letter for Zidane:

Tantalus
From Ruby to Zidane I decided to start a small theater, but I ain't had any luck finding actors... Do you know any good actors who are looking for work? Man, how I wish y'all were here! Come to think of it, you Tantalus guys look like a bunch of outlaws! Just kidding.

After Freya joins the party in Cleyra, Mopli will receive a letter:

I Have a Bad Feeling
From Monev to Mopli People are climbing up to Cleyra since the sandstorm disappeared... Kupo. I have a bad feeling about this. What's going to happen? Will Cleyra end up like Burmecia? Isn't there anyone who can help us? Kupo!

The letter the party delivers from Mopli to Serino:

In Danger
From Mopli to Serino By the time this letter reaches Serino, Cleyra may be destroyed... Stiltzkin keeps saying, "I've been through stuff like this before. We'll be fine." But what if we won’t be okay this time!? Kupo!!!

When the party first meets Mosh in the Alexandria Chapel, he will have a letter:

Rumor about Princess Garnet
From Kupo to Mosh Kupo! What's going on in Alexandria!? Soldiers are everywhere! I heard a rumor that Princess Garnet returned to Alexandria! Princess Garnet left the castle, but I guess she [still believes in/suspected]* Queen Brahne!

* When Garnet is captured by Queen Brahne, the player is given a choice answer. If they say "Believe her", then the letter will say "still believes in". If they say "Don't Believe her", then the letter will say "suspected".

The letter the party delivers from Mosh to Monty:

Escaping Evil Forest
From Mosh to Monty Monty! Were you able to escape Evil Forest? Kupo! I think this continent is heading for some serious disaster! It might be too late by the time we realize it.

Before leaving the Pinnacle Rocks, but after receiving Ramuh, Monty will get a letter:

This Might Be the End
From Stiltzkin to Monty This... might be... the end of me...

The letter the party delivers from Serino to Moodon:

Eidolon Odin's Power
From Serino to Moodon I rode on an airship called the Red Rose, but I saw something horrible... Kupo. The eidolon Odin's power is terrifying. It destroyed Cleyra completely. There's not even a trace of the city now...

Moodon also has a letter for Zidane:

Narcissus From Lindblum
From Ruby to Zidane Oh, I'm havin' a terrible time finding actors, I'm willing to take anyone who can read at this point! What was his name? That narcissist from Lindblum? I'd even take him! Get him over to my mini-theater We need to get some business!

The letter the party delivers from Moodon to Monte:

Missing! Kupo!
From Moodon to Monte Oh, it's terrible! Kupo! Mogki, from the castle, is missing! Did the Alexandrian Soldiers kidnap him? Or did the black mages eat him? Kupo! I'm so worried!!!

In Fossil Roo, the party will meet Mogki, who has a letter:

Very Bored, Kupo!
From Kuppo to Mogki I'm bored, kupo! I'm so bored, I'm going to hide away! Try finding me in this cavern! Hint: I'm behind a wall...

When the party first meets Mogryo in the Black Mage Village, he will have a letter:

To Conde Petie
From Stiltzkin to Mogryo I'm becoming familiar with the geography of the Outer Continent. My destination is Conde Petie. They exchange a special greeting with each other before entering the village... what was it? I think it was "Rally-ho"!

The letter the player delivers from Mogmatt in Conde Petie's item shop to Suzuna at the Iifa Tree roots:

Rally-Kupo!
From Mogmatt to Suzuna It's been six months since I started living in Conde Petie... The food here is great, and the people are very nice. Kupo. But... But... The only thing I can't get used to is the "Rally-ho!" I keep saying "Rally-kupo!"

The letter the party delivers from Mogryo to Mocchi:

Vivi's Eyes
From Mogryo to Mocchi A kid named Vivi came to the Black Mage Village. His eyes were so sad... Like he had the weight of the world on his shoulders, kupo. I wanted to say "Good luck!" to him, but I couldn't... Kupo. I'm on your side, Vivi!

When the party meets Mocchi again before Kuja sends out his monsters on the Iifa Tree, Mocchi will have a letter:

Blessing or Curse?
From Stiltzkin to Mocchi The Mist is gone. Is this a blessing? Or a curse?

The letter the party delivers from Kuppo to Kupo:

The Most Important Thing in Life
From Kuppo to Kupo Fossil Roo is very comfortable! I like it here. Kupo! We play hide-and-seek every day! The most important things in life are to work hard and play hard! Kupo!

After getting Kuppo's letter, Kupo will have another letter:

Vanity
From Mogrika to Kupo Even Moogles want to look beautiful! I use my special item very carefully. You don't come across it very often. It's very special to me, Kupo!

My Vagabond Life
From Stiltzkin to Kupo Alexandria is a great place to be. It's comfortable and fun. But... The travel bug stung me once again. So, I'm going on another trip.

If the player played the Hippaul racing minigame in Alexandria, Mogrich will have a letter in Treno's Knight's House:

The letter the party delivers from Mojito to Mogsam:

Stiltzkin, On the Move
From Mojito to Mogsam According to rumors, Stiltzkin is on a quest to find out why Mognet stopped functioning! I'm sure Stiltzkin will find out the truth, kupo. Why did Artemicion stop delivering mail?

When the party first meets Mogrika in Esto Gaza, she will have a letter:

Favor
From Artemicion to Mogrika Mogrika! I'm in trouble... I used too much. Do you have more? You don't, do you? Oh, what am I going to do?

The letter the party delivers from Mogrika to Moolan:

Problem

The letter the party delivers from Moolan to Mogtaka:
