Accept Bounty at the Recruitment Centre

Once you wake up the next day, head to the Recruitment Centre and talk to the Recruiter Dispatcher at the desk. From there, accept the bounty to start this quest.

Purchase Information from the Informant

If you wish, you can purchase the Lord of Tradia Desert Information from the Informant in the Hushed Honeybee Inn. However, it's not recommended to do this unless you aim to collect every item in the game.

Head Out to Tradia Desert

When you get to the desert, the Manjula will run away and go into hiding. In order to defeat your target, you'll first need to draw it out by defeating the three packs of enemies scattered throughout the map.

Be careful once you're on the third pack as defeating them will immediately spawn the Maneater Manjula. Make sure to save at the Plateau Mirage in the middle beforehan

Defeat the Maneater Manjula

Once you've cleared out all the required enemies, you'll be thrust into a battle with the Maneater Manjula.

It's recommended to bring two Mages and Brawler so you can exploit its Ice and Strike weaknesses, but you can substitute one Mage with a Healer for heals and cures if you need it.
