Blm0j4 "The Voidgate Breathes Gloomy" (Black Mage job quest 4/6): implement from scratch (no script exists yet)

[swstegall]

Summary

Quest Blm0j4 (id 111264), rank 15, is quest 4/6 of the Black Mage job line — the arc that awards the Black Mage Soul Crystal (Soul of the Black Mage, reward credited via #61). It belongs to the Black Mage job (derived from the Thaumaturge class). Per the Mirke transcript, the quest is driven by the Ixal ally Dozol Meloc (with Kazagg Chah and Da Za present at the western-Thanalan cave): he tests the player's readiness, then sends them deep into the Black Shroud (West Shroud), near the Turning Leaf stone stela northwest of Knights' Round, to slay a lurking beast and raise the Gem of Shatotto before a mossy stone stela. Reading the inscription revealed by the gem's light unlocks a new black magic (Sleepga). There is NO script yet — implement from scratch.

Reachability

Gated to active Thaumaturge/Black Mage at the required rank, enforced via #60 (cross-class unlock for the line: Thaumaturge Lv30 + Pugilist Lv15). Follows #152 (Blm0j3, "International Relations") as the immediate within-line prerequisite.

What's needed

• Create scripts/lua/quests/blm/blm0j4.lua with the standard hooks (onStart/onStateChange/onTalk/onPush/onNotice/getJournalMapMarkerList/onFinish).
• SEQ_ACCEPT offer from Dozol Meloc at the western-Thanalan cave (with the ready/not-ready dialogue branch from the transcript).
• Sequence: travel into the West Shroud near Turning Leaf (northwest of Knights' Round); slay the lurking beast that the Gloom draws out (IncCounter/SetCounter milestone).
• Stela leg: at the mossy stone stela, trigger the raise-the-Gem-of-Shatotto push/interact event that reveals the inscription and grants the new black magic.
• onNotice/linkpearl follow-up from Kazagg Chah/Da Za, then advance toward completion.
• getJournalMapMarkerList markers for Dozol Meloc and the Turning Leaf stela objective.
• Reward/CompleteQuest finale via Class/job quest enablement: credit class/job rewards on CompleteQuest (skill points/rank, Soul Crystal, gil/items) #61.
• Derive exact beast actor class id, the stela push-trigger actor, dialogue event ids, and West Shroud coords from the Mirke/Gamerescape transcript during impl.

Reference material

• Template: scripts/lua/quests/pgl/pgl200.lua
• Transcript: grep mirke-menagerie-context.md under the "BLACK MAGE" section + ffxiv_gamerescape_1x_context.md for Loremonger:The Voidgate Breathes Gloomy
• ids/zones/items: ffxiv_classic_wiki_context.md, ffxiv_mozk_tabetai_context.md
• Content/duty pattern (if needed): man0g0 SEQ_005 (Gridania opener (Man0g0 Sundered Skies) SEQ_005 combat tutorial softlocks: active-mode toggle (F / sword) is never dispatched to ActivateCommand, so the director blocks on waitForSignal(playerActive); allies stay knocked-out #28), enablement Class/job quest enablement: reusable duty victory/objective-resolution helper (all-enemies-dead -> advance SEQ) #62

Acceptance criteria

• file exists; quest offerable by Dozol Meloc and completable start to finish by a Thaumaturge/Black Mage of the right rank
• reward credited on completion (Class/job quest enablement: credit class/job rewards on CompleteQuest (skill points/rank, Soul Crystal, gil/items) #61)
• no unregistered push triggers / placeholder 0 actor ids / undefined journal globals
• all four CI gates green
