Part 207

Discover news from Final Fantasy Tactics Part 207, including Duelhorn's setbacks, the Lang Brothers' crimes, and Mr. Ocktor's recognition.

Duelhorn Suffers Setbacks

Duelhorn, a syndicate experiencing massive expansion, has faced significant setbacks due to attacks in Western Jylland. The identity and motives of the attackers remain unknown, and it is unclear if a single group is responsible. The Jylland Defenders of Peace have been mobilized but are trailing behind the perpetrators in their investigation. These calculated attacks, if continued, could lead to Duelhorn's faltering. Rumors suggest these attacks were prompted by an earlier incident in Graszton where Duelhorn members caused the destruction of several town buildings.

Jylland Free Press: Internal Memo

An internal memo from the Jylland Free Press indicates immediate personnel transfers: Frestomis is moving from Sales to Editorial, Claile from the Heritage Department to Reporting, and Anrias from Reporting to the Arts Department. The memo is torn, preventing further details on other personnel movements.

Lang Means Trouble

The four Lang Brothers, members of the Arbiters of Death guild in the Moorabella region, have fled after seriously wounding twenty-eight of their clanmates. Surviving clan members describe them as inherently troublesome and dangerous. The Defenders of the Peace have posted a bounty for their capture. The Arbiters of Death are noted as a battle-hardened clan, highlighting the Lang Brothers' combat proficiency.

Mr. Ocktor Recognized

Mr. Ocktor has been recognized by the Ivalice Herbalists Association for his extensive contributions to medicine, including the development of countless new medicines and applications, tinctures for intractable ailments, and innovations that have saved many lives. The Rozarrian Imperial League of Physicians in the capital has reportedly shown interest in collaborating with Mr. Ocktor.

Poachers in the Shadows

A special issue from the Jylland Free Press reports on a mysterious group behind the recent poaching of endangered monsters, linked to Graszton Mega-House Carm Mercantile. A reporter witnessed a clan capturing endangered monsters in the Galerria Deep and passing them to mysterious traders in the Bisga Greenlands for a significant amount of gil. The traders exuded a palpable sense of danger. This confirms an organization is paying substantial gil for endangered monsters, popularized by Carm Mercantile's preservation campaign. Reporter Anrias vows to expose the identity of these traders.

Open Rivalry

The Bangaa Brotherhood and Nu Mou Nobles are reportedly in conflict again in the Rupie Mountains. Both sides have been openly recruiting mercenaries in local pubs, possibly indicating a desire to end the conflict.

The Blade Biter's Blade

For the first time, a sword lodged in the shell of a blade biter has been liberated. The sword was offered to metallurgist Mr. Steeling, but its metal proved too strong for any work to be done on it, dashing hopes of using its strength for other weapons and armor. The sword is now displayed in Mr. Steeling's manor.

The Kthili Sands Stealers

The Kthili Sands Surveyors have been destroyed by unknown forces. It has been revealed that the Kthili Sands Surveyors were a front for illegal trade in currencies and artifacts, and many of their dig sites were unauthorized, with artifacts being stolen. They were essentially common thieves.

Concerning Grimoires

The term "grimoire" can apply to any book of magic, including a tome a young mage might use to learn spells like "fire." Grimoires are thus commonplace and a part of daily life.
