The following quests are only available when the market is at Cape West Fishing Village.

Seasick Horses Need Medicine!

ferdinand

Ah! My dear Rita! How wonderful that you’ve come to see us! You’re like a lovely little spring flower; it always cheers us up so much when you stop by. If you’re looking for something to do, maybe you could help me with a little errand? Ooh, wonderful Rita, that’s really nice of you!

It’s such a shame… Our lovely horses are feeling a little seasick after our journey here on the barge. They usually deal quite well with being at sea, but this time it seems to have been a bit too much for them. Thinking about it, our old friend Carin at Goldenleaf Stables could probably help us out. I seem to remember something happening last time they were seasick, but hey, my memory isn’t what it used to be, dear Rita. Hurry along to Carin and be sure to say hello to her from me!

Objectives: Ask Carin to help the horses get rid of their seasickness.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Carin should know of a helpful remedy for the horses.

carin

Hello there Rita. What can I do for you?

Quest completed

______________

An Herbal Remedy Against Seasickness

carin

Sooo… Ferdinand and Eddie’s horses are seasick again. Tsk, don’t they remember what happened last time? Ah well, of course I’ll help again, but Ferdinand really should know better by now!

The best thing for their seasickness is to give them fresh beach flowers to munch on, it usually makes the worst of the seasickness subside. These beach flowers grow all around the island, so take a look around and pick as many as you need then come back to me.

Rita, you must only pick green beach flowers. It’s important not to pick the red ones because they’re a protected species as you maybe know. Only green. No red. Understood? Great!

Off you go now!

Objectives: Gather green beach flowers and return to Carin. Don’t pick red ones, they’re a protected species!

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Ride out on the beach surrounding the stable, and pick only the green flowers. If you pick a red flower, you will fail the quest and have to start over.

When you have picked enough green flowers, return to Carin.

carin

Oh! I see you’ve got those lovely green beach flowers!

Quest competed

______________

Back to Seasick Horses

carin

Here you go, Rita! Your green beach flowers. Give them to Ferdinand and tell him that he needs to mix them in with their food and he should notice they’ll feel better almost straight away.

Say hi to Ferdinand and Eddie from me. See you soon!

Objectives: Ride back to Ferdinand.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Return to Ferdinand with the remedy for the sick horses.

ferdinand

Oh, the green flowers!

Quest completed

______________

Horses on the Loose in Cape West!

ferdinand

Oh, jumping jellyfish! Rita, I can’t believe it’s happened again! All the horses are loose!

Good grief, once they’d eaten up all their beach flowers, they really seemed to get much better. Seems as though they’re feeling a little bit too perky. The second I had my back turned, they just made a break for it This happens every time we come to Golden Hills Valley. I’m sure they were only play-acting when they looked so seasick; they knew they’d get some tasty beach flowers from me to fix them up so perhaps they were just planning to run away all along. 

Look, they’re dashing around here… You see them, but they don’t seem to be in a hurry to come back.

Could you round them up for us, Rita? It’s just a case of finding them; they’ll come right back afterwards. Sometimes their frolicking drives me crazy, but if these zesty little moments never happened then everything would get rather boring, don’t you think?

Good luck Rita, and be sure to have a good look; those horses really can fly when they feel like it!

Objectives: Find all the loose horses in Cape West Fishing Village.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Chase down all of the horses, and when you get close to them, they will stop. When you have caught all of the horses, return to Ferdinand.

ferdinand

Hoho, you did a great job Rita! All of the horses are finally back where they belong. Next time we’re here, we won’t fall for the same nonsense again!

Quest completed

Rent for the Horse Market at Golden Hills Valley

eddie

Hello Rita! Do you think you could help me with a little errand? I haven’t got time to leave the market just now, but the rent needs to be paid. You’re one of my most trustworthy friends, so I could certainly rely on you to get this envelope of Jorvik Shillings to Mayor Klaus in Cape West Fishing Village. It’ll be light work for a ride of your ability. 

You’ll do it? Oh, thank you Rita!

A Big Thank You from Ferdinand and Eddie

ferdinand

Dearest Rita, you’ve really been a huge help for us here in Golden Hills Valley. If you hadn’t helped us to find all the horses, we’d have been forced to search for them all night long. 

Eddie and I had a little chat earlier on, and we both decided that we wanted to give you a gift, you know, to say thanks for all you’ve done for us. Eddie has been fixing it up and I think she’s finished. You go talk to her and you’ll get a really lovely present from us, and nope, I’m saying nothing about what it is. That would only spoil the surprise! So long, dear Rita, see you soon.

Objectives: Talk with Eddie at the Horse Market.

Rewards: 150 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP, Loud and Colorful Hawaiian Shirt

Rewards: 500 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Hello Rita! Here, I’ve dug this out of the caravan for you. It’s a lovely little thing I got which Ferdinand wore on our wedding day. I’m certain it’ll suit you perfectly! Here you go. Until next time Rita.

The following quests are only available when the market is at Silverglade.

Hay’s Not the Only Thing for Horses

ferdinand

Oh, dearest Rita, it’s truly lovely that you’ve come up to see us. You’re a little ray of sunshine sent to brighten up our day, you mark my words! If you’ve got a little spare time, do you think you might help us out with a tiny errand? Ah, wonderful Rita! That’s really lovely of you.

You see, our horses are looking a little bit sad. They’ve been eating hay, hay and only hay for a while now, so clearly they could use a little variation. Couldn’t you ride on over to our old friend Barney who lives away over by the silos and ask him if he has any spare carrots? Our horses really love carrots and they’re always happiest when they’re munching on Barney’s vegetables! Hmm… I wonder what happened last time they’d eaten Barney’s vegetables? I’ve got it in the back of my mind that something weird happened. Meh, my memory isn’t what it used to be, dear Rita. Trot over to Barney and tell him I said hello!

Objectives: Ask Barney for some carrots to give to the horses at the market.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Yummy, yummy, veggies in my tummy.

Why hello there Rita! What luck you happened to stop by!

Quest completed

______________

The Vuvuzela is the Rodent’s Best Frenemy

barney

Oh, no, no, no, it’s horrific! There are little rodents all over my field! I need to get rid of them, but my approach doesn’t seem to be working.. The little beasties are too clever for old Barney. Can’t you give it a go, Rita? It’s not that tricky, but I guess you’d have to be quicker and more cunning than I am if you’re going to have a chance of getting close enough. 

Here, have a look at this: my vuvuzela! A ghastly instrument, but super effective when it comes to scaring the living daylights out of vermin. If you can get close enough to the little good-for-nothings before you blast on my vuvuzela, you’ll see that they run for their lives!

Objectives: Sneak up on the rodents and scare them away by blowing on the vuvuzela.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Approach the rodents from behind, for if they see you, they will jump back down in their holes. When you sneak up on them, use the horn on them to scare them away. When you have rid the field of the rodents, return to Barney.

barney

Haha! What a sight it was to see you sneaking up and blowing the vuvuzela on those little monsters! Thanks a lot Rita!

Quest completed

______________

Carrots to the Horses!

barney

So, was there something in particular you wanted? Carrots for Ferdinand and Eddie?

Why of course! Here’s a huge batch of my best carrots. Tell them I said hello; it’s been far too long since we saw each other!

Objectives: Take the carrots to Ferdinand.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Hopefully the horses will be happy with this.

ferdinand

Ooh, I see you’ve got some carrots with you! The horses are going to be in a much better mood now, that’s for sure.

Quest completed

______________

Horses on the Loose!

ferdinand

Darn it Rita, I can’t believe it’s happened again! All the horses are loose!

Oh goodness gracious, once they’d eaten the carrots they really seemed to lighten up, perhaps a little too much… After only eating hay for such a long time, they got really hyper after tasting such delicious carrots and just bolted away. How could I make the same mistake again!? This happens every time we come to Silverglade. I’m sure they were only play-acting when they looked so down in the dumps; they knew they’d get some tasty carrots from me to cheer them up so perhaps they were just planning to run away all along. 

Look, they’re dashing around here… You can see them, but they don’t seem to be a hurry to come back.

Could you round them up for us, Rita? It’s just a case of finding them; they’ll come right back afterwards. Sometimes their mischief drives me crazy, but if these spicy little moments never happened then everything would get rather boring, don’t you think? 

Good luck Rita, and be sure to have a good look; those horses really can gallop when they feel like it!

Objectives: Find all the horses that are running around Silverglade Village.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Chase after the horses, and when you get close to them, they will stop. When you have caught all of the horses, return to Ferdinand.

ferdinand

Hey! You did it Rita! All the horses are back in their rightful places. Next time we’re here I’ll see to it that this kind of nonsense doesn’t happen again, I can promise you.

The following quests are only available when the market is at Fort Pinta.

Bored Horses at the Market

ferdinand

Dearest Rita, it’s really lovely that you’ve come to visit us. You’re a little ray of sunshine sent to brighten up our day, believe me! If you have some time on your hands, maybe you could help me with a little errand? Oh, wonderful Rita, you’re too kind!

Y’know, our horses are a bit bored after travelling all the way here on the barge; there’s not really very much for them to do. I thought maybe if we could give them some sugar lumps it might improve their mood! The security guard here in Fort Pinta is an old friend of ours, perhaps you could ask him if he has a few sugar lumps spare for us? 

Thanks Rita, come back when you’ve got the sugar lumps and you’ll see that the horses will be in a much better mood!

Objectives: Ask the security guard at Fort Pinta for some sugar lumps.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Ride up to the entrance to the disco and speak with Security there.

security

WHAT?!

Sugar?! Sugar?!

Here, as Allied soldiers tumble down the cliffs like lemmings, you’re asking for sugar?

Quest completed

______________

Caution: Fall Hazard!

security

TEN-HUT!

Sugar… I hardly think you’d find any sugar here. In the middle of a terrible natural catastrophe we don’t exactly have the time for such civil frivolities! Right this second we’re in the midst of a disaster of apocalyptic proportions that frankly demands the total engagement and dedication of everybody involved!

What do you mean why am I so upset?! UPSET?!

Hmm? Calm down? Me?

Err…

Yes, well, yesterday as I was patrolling the base and inspecting the fortifications to ensure infiltrators couldn’t get in and that no tourists got lost in the fort, I almost walked right off the edge of the cliff! I was peering through my binoculars to check for enemies as I patrolled and didn’t exactly notice that I was so close to the edge. I was an inch from toppling right over into the sea, and it was only my superior commando training that saved me! What kind of training? Umm…

Yes! I was actually the Jorvik junior tap champion when I was younger… That’s actually really very much like commando training if you don’t mind!

ANYWAY! Now I’ve made these marvelous hazard signs that must be erected so that the same thing doesn’t happen to some standard civilian. Private Rita! ATTENTION! You’re hereby ordered to install these signs in appropriate locations along the fortifications. 

MOVE OUT! FORWAAARD MARCH!

Objectives: Put up the hazard signs around Fort Pinta and come back to talk to the security guard.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Ride around the fort and place the signs in the indicated locations, then return to Security when you are finished.

security

ATENNN-SHUN!

Are all the hazard signs in place?

Quest completed

______________

Report Back to Base

security

TEN-HUT! Don’t just stand here loitering, Private Rita. Here’s your sugar just as we agreed. Report back t General Ferdinand immediately. Between you and me, I’ll be recommending you for a medal for your heroic contribution here today.

Hmm…

MOVE OUT! FORWAAAARD MARCH!

Objectives: Ride to Ferdinand with the sugar lumps.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Return to Ferdinand with the sugar cubes.

ferdinand

Ooh, I see you’ve got sugar lumps with you! Now our horses are going to cheer right up, I’m sure.

Quest completed

______________

Horses on the Loose

ferdinand

Oh no Rita, not again! All the horses have gotten loose!

Dear, oh dear, when they got the sugar lumps they cheered right up… Maybe they got a bit too cheerful. After being stuck on the barge for so long, they all went bananas when they got the sugar and just ran away. 

Sure, they needed some activity but they can’t just bolt like that. This happens every time we come to Fort Pinta. I reckon they were just bluffing when they looked so down in the mouth earlier; they knew they’d get sugar from me and then they ran away. I could swear they’ve gone and hidden themselves in the fort, just as they always do.

Can you look for them Rita? If you find them, they’ll come back here afterwards. Sometimes it drives me crazy when they’re this naughty, but I suppose it would get awfully dull without a little drama, don’t you think? 

Good luck Rita, and don’t forget to have a really good look, they’re surprisingly good at hiding themselves, these nutty nags!

Objectives: Find all the horses that have hidden themselves in Fort Pinta.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Find all of the horses hiding in the fort. There are several places they could be, though it is different for each player. Some of the locations include: inside the disco (you will have to dismount to approach this horse), up on top of the fort, near the stable, near the fort statue, near the hairdresser, on the pony barge. Their locations will be indicated on your map, so they should not be too hard to find.

Simply approach the horse to ‘find’ it. When all of the horses have been found,  return to Ferdinand.

ferdinand

Haha, you did good Rita. All the horses have returned. We won’t be falling for their monkey business again next time we come here, let me tell you!

Quest completed

______________

Rent for the Horse Market in Fort Pinta

eddie

Hi Rita, do you think you can help me with an errand? I haven’t got time to leave the market right now, but I need to pay the rent. You’re someone I trust, so I can rely on you to deliver this envelope of Jorvik Shillings? It needs to get to James in Fort Pinta, which shouldn’t take long for an expert rider like you.

You’d do that for me? Thanks Rita!

Objectives: Give the envelope of Jorvik Shillings to James in Fort Pinta.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Ride up to James and deliver the envelope for Eddie.

eddie

Hi Rita! Now you get to see what I’ve fund for you in our caravan. It’s so lovely, it was embroidered by an old friend of ours and I wore it a lot when I was younger. It doesn’t really suit my beautiful body these days, hehe! But here, it’ll look perfect on you. Here you go! See you soon Rita.

Travel to Ferdinand’s Horse Market’s current location to begin these quests [the current location will be posted on the Horse Guide page].

Welcome to the Market

ferdinand

Good day to you! My name is Ferdinand, and this is Ferdinand’s Horse Market. Welcome! Who do I have the honor of addressing?

Rita? How nice. I hope you’ll find everything you seek, here at my most humble market. May I ask the name of your wonderful steed?

Summerblaze, what a lovely name! Horses are my life, you see. All the horses you see on this fare are raised on my family’s grounds, high up on Jorvik’s tallest mountain.

Every so often, my wife and I travel to the lowland to find new owners for our horses, but not whoever comes around! I would never let my horses be purchased by a careless individual, that would be unforgivable. I can see you are a decent and responsible human being, so if you see a horse you’d like to buy, it would pleasure me immensely to see you become its owner.

Anyhow, don’t let me take up any more of your valuable time, I’m going to… wait!

Someone is shouting. It sounds like my wife, and her voice is angry…

Rita. Uh… I have to remain on my spot here, would you be dear and see what’s befallen her?

Objectives: Speak to Ferdinand’s wife.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 25 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

You can find Ferdinand’s wife nearby in the market.

eddie

Good day to you! Pardon me… I must be looking hideous at the moment. Here I am, halfway down in the mud working, when visitors arrive! It’s so typical.

Who am I speaking to? Rita, nice to meet you. My name is Edvina, but you may call me Eddie, everyone I know does. We’ll have to speak later, I need to get my work done. Or, maybe you could help me?

Quest completed

______________

Broken Wheels

eddie

Oh, Rita. Every time, it’s the same. The trip down the mountain is fine, on its narrow and horrid paths winding their way down the steeps. Later, when we’ve made it to civilization, to nice flat roads, things starts falling apart. I have no idea why this is, but it’s like this every time. Today the wagon wheel broke. It’s not hard to repair, you only need hammer and nails, but it takes time.

Know what? If I fix this wheel, maybe you can fix the other broken wagons? You can? Thanks. Have a look at the wagons here and see if you can fix the broken wheels you come across.

Return to me when you’re done. See you later.

Objectives: Repair all broken wheels on the wagons in the market square.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP, Rye Sandwich

Reputation: 50 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Dismount your horse and use the nails in your inventory to fix all of the broken wagon wheels. Return to Eddie when you are finished.

eddie

There! This wheel is finally repaired. Phew!

How did it go for you, Rita? Wow! You’ve fixed all the other broken wheels on our wagons? Not bad! Thanks a lot!

I think it’s about time for lunch. Here you go, take one of my homemade sandwiches. Enjoy your meal!

Quest completed

Good day to you again, dear Rita. What is that incredible smell? Oho! A sandwich from my darling wife, how nice. So, could you help her with something?

You helped her fix the wagon wheels on our wagons? How noble of you. Let me give you this small trifle as reward.

I hope you’ll have a good time at our market. You are always welcome here.

Quest completed

No More Hay for the Horses

ferdinand

Dear Rita, how good of you to come visit us. You’re a ray of sunlight that brightens our day, mark my words. If you have some time to spare, could you help me with a small errand? Excellent, Rita, very kind of you.

You see, we need to replenish our stockpile of hay. Our latest trip took longer than anticipated, and we’ve almost run out. The Sunfield family are old friends of ours, could you ask Martina if she has some hay to spare?

Thanks, Rita. Return when you have the hay.

Objectives: Ride over to Martina Sunfield and ask for hay.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Speak to Martina on the Sunfield farm.

Shrimps for Hay

martina_sunfield

Ferdinand and Eddie needs hay for their horses? Why didn’t you say so in the first place? Of course they’ll get all the hay they need! But while I do that, you’ll have to help me around a little.

Take this bucket of old shrimp shells, and don’t wrinkle your nose now, and toss the contents in the sea. It might be smelly, but it’s like that sometimes. Everything can’t smell like roses and lilacs. Ride down to the docks north of our farm and toss the shrimp shells to the sea. Come back later, and I’ll give you your hay.

Objectives: Ride to the docks north of the Sunfield farm and toss the old shrimp shells in the sea.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Quest completed

______________

The Horses Have Escaped the Market

ferdinand

Woe and horror, Rita! Have you seen it? Our horses have gone nutty and torn loose!

Dear me, it must have been something in the hay that’s made them this wacky. I know they love that hay, but they never get this elated. I don’t know how long they can run around in this hijinks, but soon enough someone will get tired and hurt themselves, I just know it. Summerblaze seems to be a fast steed, maybe you can ride among them and stop them? You only need to get close to them, and you’ll see they quiet down.

Hurry up, Rita, and be careful. Good luck!

Objectives: Ride along all horses who have escaped the Horse Market and make them stop.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 100 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Hi, Rita. Could you help me with a small errand? I don’t have time to leave the market right now, but the rent is due.

You can? Thanks, Rita.

A Big Thank You from Ferdinand and Eddie

ferdinand

Dear Rita, you’ve truly been a great support to use here in the Harvest Counties. Imagine if you haven’t save the day and made those horses stop… I don’t want to think about it.

Eddie and I spoke earlier, and we both agreed that we want to give you a gift as a reward for everything you’ve done for us. Eddie was going to procure it, and I think she’s ready now. Go see her, and you’ll get a very nice present from us, and no, I don’t intend you what it is. That would ruin the surprise! See you later, dear Rita, see you later.

Objectives: Speak to Eddie at the Horse Market.

Rewards: 150 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP, Green Snugly Tights or Green Cardigan

Reputations: 500 with Ferdinand’s Horse Market

Go over and speak to Eddie.

Hi, Rita! Look what I’ve found in our wagon. It’s a small thing we received on our wedding day many years ago, and both Ferdinand and I thought it would suit you perfectly. Here you go! You’re a true friend, Rita, do come visit us soon. Bye now.
