The name of the quest is a reference to Shakespeare's play, Romeo and Juliet, where Juliet's love for Romeo is forbidden due to only the fact that he is a Montague, whereas she is a Capulet. This makes Juliet ponder over "what's in a name" that makes something the way it is. How this is relevant to the quest, I don't know. I think it might have something to do with the fact that the Hozen attack the Jinyu merely because they are, well, Jinyu. Also, the fact that the title "What's In A Name Name?" has the word "name" repeated is a reference to how most Hozen have double names (such as Kah Kah, Eekle Eekle, Chi Chi, to name a few).

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Boom BaitThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    There. I've plastered your bird guts over my explosives. I call 'em Gut Bombs, patent pending. Since you made friends with these fellas, how about you do the honors? Just light the fuse and throw 'em down by the shoreline!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Scouting Report: Hostile NativesThe Jade Forest · Level 10-35

    I bet I know your first question: "What the ook happened to Sergeant Gorrok?" Don't worry, don't worry. He's totally alive. Not dead or anything. <Riko shuffles uncomfortably.> Well, we THINK he's alive, but he ALSO might be very, very dead. <Riko looks into your eyes for approval.> Fine!
