*Go to Cid's Lab in the [[Metalworks]] and talk to [[Cid]] to hear comments about the Darksteel Formula you found during the [[Dark Legacy]] quest. [[Raibaht]] informs [[Cid]] that [[Zeid]] sent him a letter indicating that he found one of the weapons forged by [[Gerwitz]], the legendary darksteel smith, but it has taken the form of an evil weapon. You must meet [[Zeid]] and help him with his task.
'''You can be on any job from here on.'''
*Obtain a [[Darksteel Ingot]] (only one is needed per group).
*Zone into [[Ordelle's Caves]] from {{Location|La Theine Plateau}} for a cutscene where [[Zeid]] comes up to you and tells you that a merchant who had been in the caves was attacked by [[Gerwitz's Axe]].

*Make your way to SW corner of I-8 on [https://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/ffxi/images/2/20/OrdellesCaves1drk2.png/revision/latest?cb=20110717142400 this map]. (Note: The Ordelle's Caves 1 map shows the ??? spawn point at H-11, this is incorrect, I-8 is the correct location for the spawn point.)
*When ready, trade the [[Darksteel Ingot]] to the [[???]] and spawn [[Gerwitz's Axe]].
*Kill [[Gerwitz's Axe]] and it will drop [[Gerwitz's Axe (Item)]].
**Note: If you die and must leave the zone you will need another [[Darksteel Ingot]] to repop.
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Axe]] has bad evasion and low defense but has near perfect accuracy and can hit pretty hard. (DO NOT attempt to shadow/evade tank)
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Axe]]'s melee attacks have an added Drain TP effect.
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Axe]] will not aggro if spawned with sneak.
*After obtaining [[Gerwitz's Axe (Item)]], take the south passage in H-9 which climbs upwards.
*After you finish climbing, head all the way south to the hole at H-11/H-12. Drop down the hole.
*After landing, do not drop off the ledge you land upon. Go slightly north-east to the path at I-11 and you'll find yourself at J-8 of the [[:image:OrdellesCaves3.png|third map]].
*Follow the path to H-8, hugging the left wall if you don't have a map for reference.
*Spawn [[Gerwitz's Sword]] by trading [[Gerwitz's Axe (Item)]] to the [[???]].
*Kill [[Gerwitz's Sword]] and it will drop [[Gerwitz's Sword (Item)]].
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Sword]] will use Blood Weapon around 50% of HP and it's not as tough as Gerwitz's Axe.
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Sword]] will not aggro if spawned with sneak.
*The final [[???]] is just a bit farther south, at H-10 on the same map.
*Spawn [[Gerwitz's Soul]] by trading [[Gerwitz's Sword (Item)]] to the [[???]].
**[[Gerwitz's Soul]] is a Ghost NM around level 54.
**Note: [[Gerwitz's Soul]] will not aggro if spawned with sneak.
*Kill [[Gerwitz's Soul]].
*Exit to [[La Theine Plateau]] from the same map at G-10 and you'll get a cutscene, receive your reward, and complete the quest.
