- "My family's been weaving carpets and cloth here for generations. But these days no one in this town sees much cause to visit our humble shop." —
The Weaver's Predicament is a side story in Octopath Traveler. The tale begins by speaking to Gendy at his merchant stall near the entrance to Quarrycrest.
Travel to Noblecourt. Use the Inquire or Scrutinize Path Action to glean A Use for Textiles from the Fashionable Traveler, located South of the save point.
The tale ends once A Use for Textiles is shared with Gendy.
Pantaloons made of Gendy's fine fabrics have amassed great popularity within the mining community.
Alternate:
Use the Purchase or Steal Path Action to obtain Gendy's Footcloth from Gendy.
Travel to Flamesgrace. Find the Shivering Townsperson in the house to the far East, right outside the Path to the Cave of Origin.
The tale ends once Gendy's Footcloth is given to the Shivering Townsperson.
So sturdy was Gendy's footcloth that it became the fashion in colder climates to create rugs with the textile.
