FFXIV Money, FFXIV Gil

Here there is a hidden skill trainer that has some very valuable FFXIV Gil spells teach. From Ascalon Settlement, head westward and you’ll find the zone wall for Nebo Terrace.

Once through, head northeast and stick along the north border; you will eventually come across the zone wall for Beetletun. Yet another skill trainer can be found here. 

From the Lion’s Arch zone wall, head across the little bridge and to the fork again, but this time go right. This will lead you into the swamp area and if you roam around out here killing skales and such, you will find an NPC standing on a little altar-type platform. He offers a quest in which you have to protect him. 

Complete the quest and you get a couple more skills. This swamp area is a good place to kill large amounts of skales which drop, well, skales; and the skales can be salvaged into scales ¨C quite a bit of work to change one letter. 

So this is a good place to stock up on those for armor or whatnot if you need to. Now regarding the quest First watch Sergio gives you called The Villainy of Galrath, I suggest not doing this quest until a little later in the game.
