    Ah yes, it's that time of the year again where children, and children at heart, whisper their dreams and wishes to the stars--it's time for the Starlight Celebration! The people of Vana'diel are busy trimming up their towns with festive decorations, all to ring in this exciting event.

    Event details:
    Master, Master!
    The Starlight Celebration is here again, kupo!

    The lights! The sweets! The presents!
    Just thinking about the fun keeps me awake all night, kupo!

    ............Ummm...
    ......Hrmmm............
    Alright, you got me! I just can't keep a secret away from my favorite adventurer...

    As you already know, the Starlight Celebration will begin in a few days. But what you don't know is that we Moogles are in a pickle, kupo. The trees that we had made for this year's festivities have vanished from Windurst! And what's worse, a terrifying treant has suddenly shown up at the Dhalmel Farm and is wreaking havoc on the locals, kupo!

    Come to think of it, I haven't heard from my brothers and sisters working in Bastok and San d'Oria. What if there are crazy trees running amok in their towns as well...?

    Wait a minute... Treants in the towns...?
    Didn't something like this happen a few years ago? There was some kind of freak accident at the Rhinostery in Windurst, right? If this is the same thing, we're in biiig trouble!

    Anyway, as long as these freaks of nature are trouncing about our towns, everybody will be too scared to come out and take part in the Starlight Celebration's festivities, kupo! Even the smilebringers have said that they won't pass out their presents until they're sure the children will be safe.

    Ah, what to do? What to do!?
    The treant won't go away, kupo!

    Well, I guess it has come down to this...
    My colleagues and I must take up arms to protect the city from fear!
    Oh, don't worry. We'll do all the work. But, we sure could use a cheer or two from our humble masters, kupo!

                    Mog: And if this is your army, why does it go?
                    Soldier: We didn't come here to fight for them.
                    Second Soldier: Home, the treants are too many!
                    Mog: Sons of moogletown! I am Mog.
                    Second Soldier: Mog is two feet tall!
                    Mog: Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if HE were here, he'd consume the treants with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse.
                    [Moogle army laughs]
                    Mog: I AM Mog! And I see a whole army of my country men, here, in defiance of tyranny. You've come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do with that freedom? Will you fight?
                    Soldier: Against that? No, we'll run, and we'll live.
                    Mog: Aye, fight and you may die, run, and you'll live... at least for a while. And dying in your beds, many years from now, would you be willin' to trade ALL the days, from this day to that, for one chance, just one chance, to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our wives, but they'll never take... OUR FREEDOM!
