In the ARR they had shown them in the trailer like the adventurer's guild gives them to people looking for gil. Then in game there's tons of people across towns that just seem to hand these out willy nilly like the quest is depicted on the card.... How's that all work and function lore-wise?

(Because it's pretty, I'd say watch the whole thing, but leveplates are specifically around 0:45 in if the embedded link doesn't handle it.)
Gamerescape Wiki Page Wrote:Many encampments throughout Eorzea also have a Regional and/or a Grand Company levemete. Regional levemetes will first test an adventurer with a quest before offering leves. Regional levemetes offer all forms of levequest (battlecraft, tradescraft and fieldcraft) and will grant rewards of experience, items and gil. Grand Company Levequests are strictly battle levequests, and reward success with experience and Grand Company Seals.
