Eruyt Village

ROAD OF VERDANT PRAISE > THE SPIRITWOOD > THE FANE OF THE PATH

Vaan leads the party through the secret passage and into Eruyt Village.  Their mission is to bring Mjrn (which sounds nothing like it is spelled) back to the entrance so Fran can talk to her.  A couple OF moogle merchants enter Eruyt village.  Nestled in a deep forest, the Eruyt Village is just a timeshare that is co-owned by the Ewoks, Wookies, and Donkey Kong.

Now if you have heard the urban legend that women who live together sync their cycles, you can rest assured that it is true after visiting Eruyt Village.  Don’t expect more than a raised white eyebrow when you try to talk to them.  Travel north along the catwalks to locate the Vierra town hall. 

THE FANE OF THE PATH
Cut scene: When the clan arrives in the town hall they all gawk like tourists saying to themselves things like “wow look at this bridge”, “ah look at that tree,” and “so this is what Switzerland is like.”  Vaan asks for Mjrn.  A woman comes out of one of the nearby huts and tells the party to leave.  Vaan gets real stern with the woman telling her they are not leaving until they see Mjrn.  Now you may be thinking to yourself “boy Vaan’s character arc is coming around and he is actually taking a leadership role” – but it is more of his sexual frustration speaking.  I would be in the same mood if I found out that the fabled home of a super-sexy super-race was actually just full of xenophobic lesbians.  Vaan then says “Fine we will find her ourselves” – starting with a thorough search of the bathhouses.

Fran arrives to tell the party that Mjrn is not in the village but demands to know where she went.  Jote doesn’t tell her but instead lays a big guilt trip on Fran for leaving the wood.  Jote then raises her arms, kicks up a small whirl wind, and tells the clan that she went west.  Fran says something really convoluted but it boils down to “you can take the Viera out of the Eruyt but you can’t take the Eruyt out of the Viera.”

Balthier compliments Vaan on his pirate-like negotiation skills.  Larsa thinks that Jote’s cryptic message was referring to the Henne Mines and recommends we go investigate.  On their way out, Vaan asks Fran now old she is.  Set eyeballs to roll mode... ok... now roll them.  Dumb Vaan doesn’t know you don’t ask a girl her age.  Ha Ha <slap knee> Lets go.
