Kobolds and Limsans are locked in a feud born of betrayal, greed, and enmity. But, when we ally with the Maelstrom against another mundane strike in this endless conflict, we encounter a kobold order that is too pathetic to hate. In taking pity on this odd bunch, we become embroiled in an internal conflict that threatens to upend kobold society as we know it... right after this nap. Join us as we navigate the Kobold tribe quests in Final Fantasy XIV.
