When you’re finished shopping (or window-shopping, as the case may be), head down to visit Old Dalan in Lowtown.
Visit Old Dalan and Make His Delivery
Talk to Old Dalan to trigger an event. Vaan shows Dalan the stone, then the old man sends him on an errand. He wants Vaan to deliver a sword to someone named Azelas. Dalan marks his location on the area map; the red “X” isn’t far away, just up in the North Sprawl of Lowtown. Vaan asks Old Dalan to help him find out where Penelo is and the old man agrees.
Old Dalan wants Vaan to deliver a Sword of the Order to Azelas in the North Sprawl.
Follow the path to the “X” on the map and locate a man named Balzac sitting on a crate. Speak to him and he lets you into a secret Resistance hideout. Inside, men argue about the King’s assassination. Then Basch emerges…in his Dalmascan uniform. After the event, Basch joins your party.
As Vaan and Basch exit, Basch asks Vaan to take him to Balthier to acquire “wings.” Vaan agrees. Basch now joins your party.
