I'm trying to do Sandy 2-3 Journey Abroad, windy starting. I went out to Giddius by mistake forgetting to talk to Kupipi first for the shield offering key item, now she and Mourices in the sandy consulate won't say anything when activated. I read the bastok start side had trouble with mythril sand, so i tossed my shields out in hopes it would work but nothing doing. My mission log reads Journey to Windurst with orders to bring the shield offering to Giddeus and claim two shields back for sandy.
