The Patron’s Whisper

You’ll gain access to a new type of currency or point system called Renown and access to a new ‘shop’ of sorts called The Patron’s Whisper once you reach The Gathering Storm Main Scenario Quest and return to the Hideaway.

The Patron’s Whisper is where Desiree collects all of the donations for wealthy and thankful patrons that are contributed to Clive’s cause. In other words, as you accumulate more and more Renown by completing quests and defeating Notorious Marks (through Hunts), you’ll be able to talk to Desiree to collect each of the rewards below:

Description	Renown	Crate Contents
Talk of the Teahouse
“Your merry band of outlaws and its dashing deeds of derring-do are all the talk amongst the ladies of the court. We have gathered together several items of worth, that you might continue your gallantry.” - Heartstruck Dowager	15	Valley Madder (x20) Bloody Hide (x20) Steelsilk (x20) 400 Ability Points
Respect
“Our order is one built on pride, but that does not mean we are too proud to give thanks where thanks is due. We may have failed Martha once, but never again.” - The Bloodaxes	45	Meteorite
Pillow Talk
“Such is the renown of Cid the Outlaw, that much of my clientele would rather spend their time prattling on about your endeavors than making any endeavors of their own. For that, I feel I owe you at least a portion of my earnings. A particularly enamored sort left this on the nightstand. May it serve you better than it did him.” - A Busy Courtesan	85	Berserker Ring
A Swelling Chorus
“It used to be I would step into a tavern only to find myself overwhelmed with requests to sing of Dion the Bold or the Coeurl and the Serving Girl. But now, all anyone wants to hear of is Cid the Outlaw. You have made me a very rich man, my friend.” - Merry Mummer	135	A Rose Is a Rose Orchestrion Roll Empty Shard
A Prayer for Safe Travels
“They say it is your men who keep the roads free of beast and bandit. As one whose livelihood is reliant on safe passage from market to market, my chocobos and I thank you.” - A Concerned Caravaneer	205	Cleric’s Medallion +1
Safe Passage
“Not long ago, I was accosted by footpads as I walked the Gilded Path, and would have perished alone in the desert had not the Cursebreakers come to my aid. I owe them my life. May this token serve them well.” - Traveling Terpsichorean	295	Dire Wolf Jess
A Token
“Many claim they wish to change the world. Few actually take it upon themselves to do. You are an inspiration to us all.” - A Nameless Patron	410	Briar Clam Shells (x25) Desert Rose (x15) 800 Ability Points
The Bearer’s Plight
“Few are those who would strive to lighten the burden borne by the crystals’ cursed, but if we are to survive the coming storm, we must stand together—Bearer and Brother—as you have shown us.” - A Friend in Northreach	550	Meteorite (x2)
A Light from the Heavens
“The goddess Greagor teaches us that to walk with the wretched is an act of greater good. If we are to accept this truth, them one could not rightly call he who follows this path an ‘outlaw.’ - A Humble Servant”	715	High Cleric’s Medallion
A Pall Lifted
“Hugo’s men are gone, and with them the fear in our hearts. Once more shall the markets echo with mirth and merriment. And it is you who we have to thank.” - Dalimil Spicer	905	Sharp Fang (x40) Bloody Hide (x30) Steelsilk (x30) 1,500 Ability Points
Newfound Purpose
“Since I can remember, I have served none but myself—turned my back on the world for a handful of silks and a heavy purse. But where has that left me? It is hard to keep joy in one’s heart when all those around you are without. Something must change. And that change must start with me.” - A Lonely Porter	1,120	No Risk, No Reward Orchestrion Roll Amber
A Gift
“Enclosed you will find an item of high and strange order—one for which I require neither thanks nor recompense. Consider it a reminder of where loyalties are best placed.” - The Chapman	1,360	Talisman of Priming
A Fitting Performance
“Natalie reports an unexpected surplus in Dalimil’s stores, and, as a means of showing the town’s gratitude for past assistance, has expressed her distinct wish that one… ‘Lord Underhill’ partake in their good fortune.” - Viktor	1,635	Clutchmine (x20) Wyrrite (x50) Magicked Ash (x50) 2,500 Ability Points
Faith Undying
“We are the shadows that quicken in the firebird’s wake, and from the shadows do serve our lord and those who would be His wings.” - The Undying	1,965	Ring of the Swiftshot
Continental Acclaim
“If the drunken galley captain I shared a table with last night is to be believed, word of your exploits has made its way across the seas to the Great Continent. What is more, she claims there are those who would see you flourish—herself being one such woman.” - Gerath	2,365	Genji Gloves
Unsigned
“Every epic starts with a single word. Every symphony, a single note. This is but the beginning, and fore’er shall be told. Fore’er shall your legacy be sung.”	2,850	To Sail Forbidden Seas Orchestrion Roll Fallen Enigma
