Linuhanu is a non-playable character in Final Fantasy XIV. Linuhanu is charge of the Ihih'hana harvest festival.
History
Linuhanu was in charge of the Ihih'hana harvest festival this year. Due to the float being exposed during the storm that hit Kozama'uka, it was damaged. This, coupled with the houses being destroyed and the reed crops failing, made it impossible to hold the festival. During the rite of succession, while Wuk Lamat was investigating how to solve the reed problem, she proposed repairing the float so that they could hold the Ihih'hana and bring joy to the people in their time of need. Upon hearing about the materials, Alphinaud Leveilleur believed that the float was a magical artifact created unintentionally and the festival was a ritual to ensure good harvests. Linuhanu was not convinced by this theory, but accepted help in repairing the float. Linuhanu then introduced the carpenter Wuk Evu, who had been taking care of the float for the past few years and could help obtain some of the materials needed for the repair.[1]
After Wuk Evu agreed to assist, the party split up to gather the materials needed for the repair. Linuhanu, the Warrior of Light, and Krile ventured to the Cave Kikitola to gather raw abokixa, a vital material for the repairs. Despite the dangers, the group succeeded in collecting the necessary resources.[2]
Linuhanu defending the float.
With the float ready, Wuk Lamat's party set out to eliminate any monsters in the way of the festival. Meanwhile, Bakool Ja Ja went to the location to steal the float. Linuhanu stepped in front of Bakool Ja Ja to protect the float and Wuk Evo. Thanks to Erenville who quickly warned his companions via linkpearl, just as Bakool Ja Ja drew his blades to attack Linuhanu, Wuk Lamat arrived to stop him. Before the situation got out of hand, one of Bakool Ja Ja's henchmen appeared saying that it would be more advantageous to try to go after another candidate with a better chance of completing the trial.[3]
The Ihih'hana festival being held.
With Bakool Ja Ja's attempt to steal the float thwarted, Wuk Evu asked the party to inform the Ok'hanu villagers that the Ihih'hana festival would proceed as planned. As the festival began, the collective energy of the participants revitalized the fields in a spectacular display of aether. Although the festival did not completely cure the reeds, Koana appeared with an alchemical concoction he had prepared with the help of his Archon allies. His unexpected contribution further rejuvenated the remaining crops, completing the restoration efforts.[4]
