Quest description
The Voidgate Breathes Gloomy is a Quest in Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn.
Journal[]
- According to Dozol Meloc, the Gloom emanating from the voidgate is reacting to the power that has awoken within you. The ancient black magic that will aid you lies hidden in the South Shroud, sealed within a pillar by mages of old. Seek out this now-mossy pillar in Urth's Gift and see what secrets it holds.
- Investigating the pillar sparks the appearance of a rash of planar fissures, which you and Mendicant Da Za subsequently dispatch with your usual flair. Speak with the mendicant to see how he is holding up after the battle.
- Seemingly none the worse for wear, Da Za instructs you to return to Burgundy Falls to inform Dozol Meloc of your success.
- Dozol Meloc is thrilled that the mysterious Gloom has been eliminated. Now speak with Kazagg Chah, who awaits you in his usual location behind Burgundy Falls.
- Kazagg Chah is relieved that the Gloom has been scattered, and is greatly pleased by the power of darkness that has grown within you.
Objectives[]
- Investigate the mossy pillar in Urth's Gift.
- Speak with 269th Order Mendicant Da Za.
- Speak with Dozol Meloc at Burgundy Falls.
- Speak with Kazagg Chah.

|---|---|
| Kazagg Chah | [Player Name]. It is well you are here. My colleagues Dozol Meloc and Da Za would have words with you. Wait here while I fetch them. |
| Dozol Meloc | To close voidgate, strong black magic you need. Ready for test, are you? |
| Dozol Meloc | Very good. Squaaawk! You have sharp sense, like Dozol. Noticed, have you? Your aura. Strangeness, it has. |
| Dozol Meloc | Fool! Squaaawk! But no matter. Sharp sense, Dozol has. Your aura. Strangeness, it has. |
| Dozol Meloc | Now, the voidgate. Gloom, it makes. Like black breath. Gloom drawn to black magic. Drawn to you. Like moth to flame. Black magic, it seeks, to corrupt and make own. |
| Dozol Meloc | Losing strength, seal is. Black magic and voidgate share bond. Very deep. But must not leave be too long. Else other side maybe take you! Squaw-aw-awk. |
| Dozol Meloc | No fear yet! Still weak, Gloom is. Time, you have. Strong [Player Name] find next key! |
| Dozol Meloc | Teach you, Dozol will, what must do. |
| Dozol Meloc | Many black mages, there were. Long ago. One more powerful than rest. Very powerful. Epic, even. Epic black mage. |
| Dozol Meloc | Black magic too powerful. Too dangerous. Wrong hands must not have. Know this, he did. Ciphered spells. Hid secrets. Dark way passed to few. Very few. |
| Dozol Meloc | Teaching, writing, spread over realm. Lost to time, they were. Forgotten. One carved in stone. Stone of mossy pillar. Pillar in South Shroud. Squaaawk! |
| Dozol Meloc | Chosen [Player Name] is chosen! Unleash power of this black magic, you can. Key, it is! Key to end of Gloom! |
| Dozol Meloc | Knowledge of my line, this is. Passed to Dozol from mother. From mother of mother. From mother of mother of mother. Four hatchings past. Strong mage, she was. Epic, even. Epic mage! |
| Dozol Meloc | Great love for dark art. More than anything. Joined with lizardmen to learn all. Named betrayer, she was. Chased from village. Squaaawk! Her words, Dozol keeps. Teach to strong [Player Name] now. |
| Dozol Meloc | “Four magi meet, in barren land,
Old black powers have they, in hand. Fate of all wicked, be made stark. Path to light then lit by squaaawk!” That her squawk. Not Dozol squawk. Should be dark, Dozol thinks. |
| Dozol Meloc | Good words. Deep words. Bring Dozol here, they did. To pass on. Not Dozol alone. Others come too. Other mages. |
| Dozol Meloc | Birdman. Lizardman. No matter. All wait for strong [Player Name]. Strong mind, you have, and heart. Help you, Dozol will. |
| Dozol Meloc | Go to Gridania, you must. To Urth's Gift. Near pillar lurking beasts, there are. Slay them, you must. No need fear beast. Strong [Player Name] is strong! |
| Dozol Meloc | Da Za! Squaaawk! |
| Daza | I, too, am here to lend you my aid─help, hand, aid. |
| Dozol Meloc | Wood danger for Dozol. For Ixal, Wailers wait. Wait with sharp spears. Go in place of Dozol, Da Za will. |
| Dozol Meloc | Decided, it is. Go now, you will! Squaaawk! |
| Sekihi | By the gem thou bearest shall the great and dark power of eld be bestowed upon thee. But those who seek this power must first prove their worth. Behold, the Gloom that would be thine undoing cometh! |
| Sekihi | Stay the Gloom's encroach by thy hand. Only then shall the umbral wisdom of the ages be gifted unto thee. |
| Daza | That voice spoke true. Look! The Gloom gathers, [Player Name]. I sense there are fiends of evil about─nearby, close, about. |
| Daza | Well fought! The Gloom is scattered! Scattered is the Gloom! |
| Daza | Let us return to Burgundy Falls. Yes, yes, Dozol Meloc awaits us─you, me, us. |
| Dozol Meloc | Gone from you, Gloom is. Worry for nothing, Dozol did! |
| Dozol Meloc | Squaaawk! Now go see Kazagg Chah, you must. Awaiting you, he is. |
| Kazagg Chah | The gods are good to return you unharmed. The Gloom which threatened to taint this world does so no more. And I sense the darkness within you is reborn with a new power. |
| Kazagg Chah | Wield it well, [Player Name] of the black, and make of it a tool for our ends. Do that, and as the prophecy speaks, the way to light shall be lit by dark before you. |
| Quest complete. | |
