Complete the Friends Together Again Main Scenario in Chapter 4 to unlock this side quest. This quest will then appear on the noticeboard. To officially start this quest, head to where you defeated Terror of the Deep and keep walking south until you reach an area filled with mist. There you see a Frog, talk to it. The frog then turns into a boy named Finn after which a cutscene plays marking the start of the quest.

You and your party are then transmogrified into a frog during which you have to defeat enemies in this state. You have only one skill available to you which is the Leapfrog ability. Try to use this as much as possible as it is your strongest move right now. After defeating the enemies, participate in the Jumpfrog minigame. Moreover, you need to get Rank 1 in this minigame which requires you to stay on the platform for at least 30 seconds.

  • Enfeeblement Ring (Rank I Completion)

Complete When Words Won’t Do to unlock this sidequest. You can start this quest the moment you reach Crow’s Nest with Salmon. Toby stands at the entrance of Crow’s Nest when you first arrive there. Follow Toby into the town until he stops walking, the quest begins here.

After accepting the quest, Toby points towards the Abandoned Lighthouse at the Southern point of Crow’s Nest. Make your way through the village till you reach your destination. At the lighthouse, talk with Kyrie who is waiting up the stairs. After talking to her, head down and prepare for battle.

You have to first defeat numerous waves of Flans. These monsters are weak to Fire so most fire spells take them out easily. At the end, two White Mousse will appear. These can be difficult to beat due to them having no weakness. The trick to win this fight is to deal elemental damage to pressure them. You can then deal high amounts of damage once you stagger them. Finally, beating the enemies results in a cutscene after which the quest is over.

After this, a Mystic Dragon appears and takes the cow with it. Again, use Belle to follow its scent. The trail leads you to a cave which you need to navigate using your Chocobo. One inside, fight with the Mystic Dragon. It gets easily pressured from Wind attacks so use it till you stagger the Mystic Dragon.
