Summary

A "moondrop" from the Boyahda Tree is required to open the chest Ilumida's late husband left for her.

Walkthrough

In order to be granted this quest, you need to have completed at least the following six quests

• Chululu (Lower Jeuno, I-8) will give you the quest Collect Tarut Cards and, once you complete that, Rubbish Day.
• Kurou-Morou (Lower Jeuno, I-8) will give you the quest Your Crystal Ball and, once you complete that, Never to Return.
• Ilumida (Upper Jeuno, in the house next to Baudin's) will give you the quest A Candlelight Vigil. To complete this quest, you must first complete Candle-Making.

Once you have done these, speak to Kurou-Morou and see a cut scene where he explains his romantic predicament. After that speak to Ilumida and you will get another cutscene.

Turns out, Ilumida wants a Drop of the Moon (key item). If you talk to Kurou-Morou afterwords, you will be told the Drop of the Moon is in Boyahda Tree.

Journey to The Boyahda tree and examine a ??? at H-8 in 2nd map of The Boyahda Tree between 20:00 and 03:00. This will pop an Ahriman NM called Agas. Kill it and examine ??? again to get Key Item. NOTE: This does not work during a new moon, as the moon has to be visible. If you summon and kill Agas, but do not get to the ??? before 03:00, it will disappear. However, you will be able to get it the next night by clicking the ??? after 20:00. This will not summon Agas again, but you cannot zone before you do this, or you will summon Agas.

The area around the ??? is full of mobs which aggro above 70, so make sure you've cleared the area before. Agas himself can use AoE Petrify as well as Sleepga, so be prepared some poison potions with WHM with Stona. Generally speaking, a level 70 party should be able to handle Agas, if you clear it beforehand to avoid links. To be sure, take two parties to cover your bases. You can Sneak touch the ???, but it will not aggro you until you pull it in that case.

Once you've acquired the key item, return to Jeuno. Talk to Ilumida and Kurou-Morou to complete quest . The reward is 3000 gil and a Scroll: Sleepga II.
