[Quest] Is Stolen Child 1 Broken?

I'd completely forgotten about this quest chain until I accidentally clicked on the Recommended button - the green part - and it popped up. So...I'm supposed to buy a hat or something with the Black Wings logo on it so I can get into the mine, right? I've talked to every NPC and vendor in Edelstein, but none of them is selling the item I need.

Am I crazy and just missing something totally obvious, or is the NPC really not there?

    Speak with NPC Stephan in Road to the Mine 1, he'll sell you his hat for 100,000 mesos.

    Also check your lightbulb quests just in case there's a quest from him. But it most certainly is Stephan that you buy the hat from.

    You don't have to buy the hat; there's a secret elevator to the mines located in the fox map.

    You have to activate that elevator from the inside before you can use it, if I'm not mistaken.

    You don't.
    There's just a level requirement to use it. I don't remember the exact level, but it's higher than 60, since I couldn't use the elevator to get in the mine for the Resistance 3rd job advancement quest.

    Found it, thanks! However, the gatekeeper at the mine (Bunny Large?) wouldn't let me in, even with the hat, so I just teleported directly to Le Tierre. Problem solved. :)

    That's odd. Did you wear the hat, or just have it in inventory?

    Both.
