    You cast your line into the waters of the Dragonhead latrines.

    Something bites!

    I uh... what? <Run away!>

    Point one: why are there THREE guys sitting in this?!?!

    Point two: Remind me never to accept any dinner party invites from House Fortemps... especially if fish is on the menu!

    Point three: why am I being asked to catch fish from a latrine?! What are you going to do wi- wait, don't answer that, I don't want to know!

    Seriously, no-one else find it a bit disgusting we're being told to go fishing in a latrine >_______>

    Edit - heh, should have finished the quest first, she does explain people stay away just because it's the name, it's not actually a giant potty at all. Pointless thread is pointless!

    Well they might be using the fish for something else. The Mor Dhona fisher quest had you catch fish because they could use them to make a medicine against the pox.

    As for why there's guys sitting in it, considering there's a drill sergeant-looking fellow in front and they're not wearing any shirt... cold-weather training?

    One of the Ixali quests actually explains this.

    It's not really a latrine, it's actually the most profitable fishing hole in Coerthas and some clever fisherman apparently spread a rumour that it was the latrine to deter competition.

    His plan backfired, now hundreds of adventurers actually use it as a latrine. Primarily due to the complete lack of such facilities elsewhere in Eorzea.

    You all do realize that a latrine is a bathroom right? Do you not have showers and bathtubs in your bathrooms? And if you really want to nitpick it... it comes from an older latin word meaning Bathhouse. The toilets were effectively added later.
