Part 206

Investigate the theft from Baron Popple's manor and the poaching of cluckatrices in Final Fantasy Tactics Part 206.

A Theft from the Manor

Betting House Busted!

An investigation by the Jylland Free Press reveals a syndicate is behind the poaching of endangered cluckatrices, using them for illegal cock fighting. The illicit bouts attract a wide clientele, including knights from Graszton, nobles from Moorabella, merchants from Eastern Jylland, and even ambassadors from Rozarria. The reporter, Anrias, likens the syndicate's threat to the historical crime syndicate Khamja.

Carm Mercantile: Major Mess

Carm Mercantile's campaign to preserve endangered monsters inadvertently fueled interest in hunting the cluckatrice, a bird creature prized for its flavorful flesh. The adult cluckatrice's large size made it an attractive target, and increased publicity from Carm Mercantile's efforts led to a fever pitch in hunting. Poachers are responsible, but Carm Mercantile is also blamed for not foreseeing the consequences.

Carm Mercantile: We Meant Well

Carm Mercantile admits poaching continues but hopes it is temporary. A spokesperson stated their campaign aimed to raise awareness, not endanger monsters further. The campaign has raised awareness, but its ultimate benefit or detriment to the monsters remains to be seen.

Duelhorn

The foreign crime syndicate Duelhorn has been seen operating in Jylland, with many operatives present, though their specific business remains unclear. Their presence is expected to bring trouble.
