Konschtat Highlands Monument
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Located at (G-7) in a cave on the Konschtat Highlands, this monument has words carved into the stone:
The wind that blows through this area is called "Odin's Wrath". Seeing it's potential use, some ingenious Bastokers decided to build the windmills here, a long time ago. Flour mills, to be exact. In this desolate land where nothing more than popotoes can grow, the wheat brought in from San d'Oria, was a true lifesaver to Bastokers. San d'Oria, in turn, relied on their consumption of its surplus wheat, and also on the flour that came back from Bastok's mills. The mills became the symbols of their mutual dependence. Even in times of war between the two, this trade continued. Both armies' brass were infuriated, but none tried to disrupt it lest the bread disappeared from their own tables! Ah the irony! A toast, to the merchants!.
