History

     Tadir was born in Gridania to James and Oak West, the owners of the Westward Map Company. Originally concieved as a cover for an illegal smuggling trade, making and selling maps gave them the perfect excuse to travel everywhere to sell their wares. The Westward Map Company never traded goods directly, instead they would sell a map showing where the illicit goods were securely stored. If anyone else came across the map, it was just a map. This worked well for many years and was very lucrative. When Tadir was born they decided to go legit...more or less. 

Tadir moved to Limsa Lominsa as soon as he was able and attempted to pursue his passion of the time, journalism. After reviving the Tonberry's Lantern news sheet, he played the part as long as he was able. Unfortunately, his father fell ill and he was forced to return to Gridania to care for his parents and take over the running of their now (mostly) legit cartography company. 

While there he married his long time companion and bodyguard, Kimiji Mur'zunni (now West) and has spent the past five years learning the cartography trade and preparing to start his journey with his wife to update the company's cartographical reference materials.
