== Walkthrough ==
* You are given 6 Key Item seals ({{KI}} [[Domina's scarlet seal]], {{KI}} [[Domina's cerulean seal]], {{KI}} [[Domina's emerald seal]], {{KI}} [[Domina's amber seal]], {{KI}} [[Domina's violet seal]], {{KI}} [[Domina's azure seal]]) and instructed to attach <u>at least 3</u> of them to the '''Protocrystals''' found around [[Vana'diel]].
**Protocrystals are found in the [[Cloister of Storms]], [[Cloister of Frost]], [[Cloister of Flames]], [[Cloister of Tremors]], [[Cloister of Tides]] and [[Cloister of Gales]].
* Click each Protocrystal once, then click again for the option to enter a Battlefield entitled '''Sugar-coated Directive'''.
** Enter the battlefield and defeat a weakened version of the corresponding Prime Avatar.
** The Avatar will not die until it has tried to use its Astral Flow ability 5 times.
* After the battle, click the crystal again to attach the seal and receive a counterseal Key Item ({{KI}} [[Scarlet counterseal]], {{KI}} [[Cerulean counterseal]], {{KI}} [[Emerald counterseal]], {{KI}} [[Amber counterseal]], {{KI}} [[Violet counterseal]], {{KI}} [[Azure counterseal]]).
**'''Note:''' If you leave the area before receiving the counterseal Key Item, you can simply return in order to obtain it; the battle is not repeated.
* Once at least 3 counterseals are obtained, return to the [[Trodden Snow]] at (H-7) in [[Qufim Island]] for a cutscene.
* You will receive a Gil reward that is dependent on the number of counterseals obtained:
** 3 seals: 3,000 Gil
** 4 seals: 10,000 Gil
** 5 seals: 30,000 Gil
** 6 seals: 50,000 Gil

== "A Shantotto Ascension" Key ==
* After completing the mission, the activity is repeatable for an additional reward once per day.
** Augmented equipment is a common reward but there is also crafting ingredients and spell scrolls.
* Head to [[Port Jeuno]] and ask [[Squintrox Dryeyes]] (G-8) for a {{KI}} [[Bird key]].
* You will be given the 6 seal [[key items]] ([[Domina's scarlet seal]], [[Domina's cerulean seal]], [[Domina's emerald seal]], [[Domina's amber seal]], [[Domina's violet seal]], [[Domina's azure seal]]).
* Go to any 3 of the protocrystals and interact with them twice: once to use the seal, again to enter the '''Sugar-coated Directive''' battlefield.
** Protocrystals are found in the [[Cloister of Storms]], [[Cloister of Frost]], [[Cloister of Flames]], [[Cloister of Tremors]], [[Cloister of Tides]] and [[Cloister of Gales]].
* After completing the battlefield, interact with the protocrystal to receive the counterseal key item.
* Return to Squintrox Dryeyes with 3 counterseals and receive the {{KI}} [[Bird key]].
* Go to [[Lower Jeuno]] and enter the '''[[Tenshodo]] HQ'''.
** If you do not have a {{KI}} [[Tenshodo Member's Card]], you will need to complete the [[Tenshodo Membership]] quest.
* Interact with the red treasure coffer at (J-8) and use the {{KI}} [[Bird key]] (Level 40) option to receive the reward.
** Rewards are listed on the [[Add-on Scenario Rewards#Bird Key{{!}}Add-on Scenario Rewards]] page.
