Chapter 5 airship side quests: Aileen, Lid, Nichol, Archwitch Fina and the Big Bridge

A Gossiping Girl at Dilmagia's entrance (Game Rant) starts the search for the woman who led the rebellion. Aileen is at Dilmagia Shipyard (RPG Site), and you then gather information on her in three regions; RPG Site names the people as the Military Engineer by Dilmagia's weapon and armor shop, the Affable Woman in the Village of Kol and the Former Rebel at the Rebel Hideout. Back at the shipyard she asks you questions, and RPG Site says you pick one of three answers.

The reward is Aileen, the Vision, and a Magicite. Aileen is also the smith who turns each Adamantite into a character's weapon on the airship.

All 8 Adamantite locations (Aileen's weapons)

2. Gather information on Aileen in each of three regions.
3. Find Aileen at the Dilmagia shipyard and answer her questions.

The Chairman at Dilmagia Shipyard starts Lid's quest. The blueprints are in the north-west of Mobliz Shipyard, reached with the left elevator (RPG Site). After you talk to Evan on the airship, RPG Site says you fight Typhon before going back to the Chairman.

MeowDB lists Typhon as a boss at Lv.35 with 75,000 HP, weak to Ice, taking half damage from Wind, with 'a skill that removes targets from battle', and dropping an Elixir. WinterNight Gaming's Typhon video (titled Expert; no name label in the frames we checked) backs both: Blizzaga and the ice Limit Burst Absolving Hailstorm land 'Weak' hits, one a 6,134 critical, and the win pays an Elixir. The reward is the Chocobo Nitro (Game Rant: Lid's accessory) and Lid's attribute bonus of HP +100, MP +30, Strength +25 and Magic +25.

Nichol gives his own quest in Olderion. RPG Site says to start with the Aggravated Fisherman by the Olderion shops and that you defeat Sahagin in the south-east of the Olderion Federation; no source we checked shows that fight's level.

At the end Leviathan addresses Nichol as Warden of the Waters. Gamer Guru's video then shows the quest completed, 'Nichol's attributes increased!' (HP +100, MP +30, Magic +30, Speed +20) and 'You can now summon Leviathan!'; 100% Guides' video shows the Enchanted Ring before the same notice. RPG Site lists the ring and the bonus but not Leviathan.

3. Investigate the south-east of the Olderion Federation.

Archwitch Fina starts her quest in Grandshelt (Game Rant: by the fountain, once both Fina and Archwitch Fina are with you for good). RPG Site puts the two sightseeing stops in eastern Grandshelt and in front of the Grandshelt Colosseum, then the castle garrison and the King. The reward is the Moonlight Ring and, per RPG Site, her attribute bonus of HP +100, MP +30, Magic +30 and Strength +20.

CGInferno's Chapter 6 playthrough (Community-reported (video)) takes it at the start of Chapter 6. Archwitch Fina talks with Rain by the Grandshelt fountain, the card 'Last Respite' QUEST ACCEPTED appears, and the HUD then reads 'Chapter 6 - Tranquility' with 'Last Respite / Show Archwitch Fina around Grandshelt (0/2)'. This shows the quest open in Chapter 6; it doesn't show whether it was already open at the end of Chapter 5.

1. Show Archwitch Fina around Grandshelt (two stops).
2. Go to the castle garrison.
3. Talk to the King of Grandshelt.
4. Talk to Archwitch Fina on the airship deck.

RPG Site says the quest starts after you beat Gilgamesh on the Enterprise's deck, which needs your earlier meeting with him at Waterfall Way. It lists the four bridges as north-west of Grandshelt, north-east of Dilmagia, south of Waterfall Way and by Mozul Station; Gilgamesh rejects them, Rain suggests the Kolobos Bridge north of Felicitas, and you cross it with him to fight.

MeowDB has three Gilgamesh entries: Lv.11, Lv.40 (a fight that ends when he calls a Bomb at 20% HP) and Lv.45 with 180,000 HP, described as the only fight against him you can win. RPG Site and Game Rant agree the quest gives the Genji Armor. Game Rant, and the title of Gamer Guru's video about the whole chain, say it also gives the Genji Gloves; RPG Site lists only the Armor. The video ends with Lasswell wearing the Genji Armor, with the Genji Gloves in his equippable list. The game data lists no reward. Gamer Guru's caption says Gilgamesh appears on the airship deck near the end of Chapter 5. The Gilgamesh page covers every fight in detail.
