The Second Coil of Bahamut - Turn 1, also known in-game as Dalamud's Shadow and as Turn 6 or T6 among players, is a Raid turn in Final Fantasy XIV, and the first turn of the Second Coil of Bahamut. In this turn, players face off against Rafflesia.
Story[]
Your foray into the caverns beneath Castrum Occidens has led you to an unexpected revelation: the incomplete form of Bahamut, harbinger of the Calamity, slumbers deep within earth. Though seemingly a prisoner, the elder primal is gradually being regenerated by the massive, Ragnarok-class internment hulks that surround the unmoving entity. Alisaie reasons that if Bahamut's full restoration is to be prevented, then all three coils sustaining and repairing the dreadful being must be deactivated. Filled with new determination, you assemble a group of courageous comrades and set your sights on the fragment of Dalamud found in the North Shroud.

Journal
- In a place such as Revenant's Toll, information must flow along with wine. Why not linger downstream of Alys for a spell?
- Even after moons of pensive strumming, the wandering minstrel still refuses to budge from his spot in the Seventh Heaven, ever bent on collecting the makings of a new epic. Heed Alys's counsel and speak with this gilder of lilies, for the commonfolk are in sore need of even a fool's gold.
- You recount to the bard your foray into the lightless depths of Dalamud's Shadow, and are amazed to see the leaden horror of those hours transmuted to gold by the minstrel's gifts. the power of poetry is such that you can now relive the experience, should you so choose. ※The Second Coil of Bahamut (Savage) may be accessed via the Duty Finder.
Objectives
- Speak with the wandering minstrel.

Etymology[]
Rafflesia is a genus of parasitic flowering plants found in southeastern Asia, on Indonesia, Malay Peninsula, Borneo, Sumatra, Thailand and the Philippines. Rafflesia was found in the Indonesian rain forest by an Indonesian guide working for Dr. Joseph Arnold in 1818, and named after Sir Thomas Stamford Raffles, the leader of the expedition.
