Quick Links

Search For Cid's Scout

Now, Clive and Cid find themselves on the outskirts of Lostwing after enduring a series of challenges in the previous main scenario quest. However, their journey is far from over. Their next task involves locating Cid's scout and engaging in a conversation with the supposed Dominant of Fire, who was spotted at Lostwing. But as expected, things take an unexpected turn and this particular quest in Final Fantasy 16 proves to be more than just a simple conversation with Cid's scout.

In addition, the environment in this particular quest offers a slightly less straightforward path compared to previous quests. Therefore, players need to be prepared for combat encounters while also having the chance to collect crafting materials in "Louder than Words". It is worth noting that this walkthrough contains spoilers, hence players are advised to proceed cautiously.

Activate the Obelisk

Upon embarking on the next main scenario quest in Final Fantasy 16, players should initially approach the obelisk situated on the left side. By attuning to this obelisk, players will unlock the convenience of fast travel within this specific area, granting them the ability to revisit the location at their discretion.

Once the obelisk has been activated, players should then proceed forward, crossing the river and following the path ahead. The path will eventually split into two directions. Opting for the right path will lead players up a hill where they can discover a Valley Madder, a valuable crafting material. On the other hand, continuing straight ahead will progress the storyline. Further along the path, players will encounter Waloeder forces that must be dealt with accordingly. After overcoming this obstacle, players can continue along the path, triggering a cutscene.

Search For Cid's Scout

While at Lostwing, the party will divide their efforts, with Clive exploring one section and Cid searching another. On the local map, areas that are inaccessible to players are marked by red circles with a line in the middle. Proceed along the path and activate the obelisk located at the edge of Lostwing to unlock fast travel in that area for future use.

During the exploration, take note of the middle of the wooden platform where a child can be heard crying. Approach the child, who is hiding behind some boxes, to initiate a cutscene. Following this, follow the red waypoint towards the church to trigger another cutscene. Once the cutscene concludes, pursue the fleeing soldier until yet another cutscene is triggered.

How to Beat Chirada

Chirada, an aerial adversary, possesses the ability to harness wind magic and employ its wings as formidable weapons. It is crucial to observe Chirada's attack patterns closely, swiftly evading her assaults before counterattacking. Remain vigilant for the moment when three luminous spheres materialize, promptly retreating from their vicinity as they will detonate shortly after their manifestation. By persistently engaging the boss, victory shall be attained. Subsequently, a series of captivating cutscenes will unfold, signifying the successful completion of "Louder than Words" and initiating the subsequent main scenario quest, "The Dead of Night," for players of Final Fantasy 16.

Final Fantasy 16 is currently accessible on PlayStation 5.
