This quest can be accepted after completing the quests for crafting La Orzeca Helmet or Armor. Only the female versions of the La Orzeca Outfit can be exchanged. However, only the helmet can be exchanged for the Shai. The outfit pieces that are exchanged for in this quest cannot be returned to their previous look.
