Donald the Pessimist Can Do It

donald

Hi Rita.

Surprisingly enough, I managed to finish it up, and the needles from the blacksmith were fantastic! I’m really shocked actually.

Here’s Loretta’s order, can you bring it to her? There’s probably a better chance that it will reach her if you’ll take it than if I’ll post it.

Thanks, now I’ll have to continue the work.

Objectives: Give the order to Loretta.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

Return to Loretta at Nilmer’s with her order from Donald.

loretta2

Wow!

This actually turned out really well. I have to thank Justin next time I see him. I was right about Donald being good. But Justin is always right, he is totally perfect. That’s why we fit so well together.

A Bit Better, A Bit Fancier

loretta2

I started thinking about the invitations while you were gone, Rita.

Why do you look so surprised? What kind of a loser party is it if there’s only two people? Of course it can’t just be me and Tan that’ll show up.

You know, the invitation says it all, what kind of party to expect. One for losers, or one for us Bobcats – a little bit better, a bit more fancy. I’d be seriously embarrassed if I didn’t have a proper invitation. It can’t be boring, like an old person wrote it, and it can’t be dorky or old-fashioned either.

It’s actually pretty hard to be cool, even if there are few people that really get it. You should be happy to get the chance to help me with this, there’s not that many people that get a chance like this in life.

Can you help me fix up the envelopes for the invitations so they’ll be as cool as the actual invitations? 

Thank you so much!

Objectives: Help Loretta get the invitations in order.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Dismount your horse and use the pen from your inventory on the envelopes Loretta placed out on the barrels nearby. Speak to her again when you’ve prettied up all of the envelopes.

loretta2

Wow! Awesome Rita. It seems I underestimated you. This turned out really well.

Quest completed

______________

Invitation for People With Style

loretta2

We’re getting there Rita, there’s not a lot of time left until the party gets started.

Now we just have to hand out these invitations and make sure they get into the right hands. We don’t want any lame people at the party after all, duh! That would like, ruin EVERYTHING. Gosh, how embarrassing if some lame-o would hear about the party and show up. Tan would like, think I hated her.

Can you take these invitations and hand them out? And Rita, I’m counting on you only inviting cool people.

Objectives: Hand out the invitations to people in Moorland. Be careful who you hand them out to.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

Cool People Only Club.

Choose wisely, if you hand an invitation to someone who isn’t cool by Loretta’s standards, you will have to start over, and like, imagine how embarrassing that will be!

Soooo Fetch [cool people]
– Josh
– Any Bobcat Girls (standing outside the stable and near each of the stable gates)
– May

Soooo Not Fetch [ew old people]
– Conrad
– Mr Moorland
– Mrs Holdsworth

When you have handed out all the invitations, return to Loretta.

loretta2

Awesome! Thanks for the help. What a great team we make, Rita!

Quest completed

______________

Best Decorations Ever!

loretta2

Now that all the invitations have been handed out, we have to get everything ready for the party.

Seriously, you’ll never guess but I’ve found the best decorations EVER! I mean, what’s a party without the decorations? Especially since we’re trying to scare Tan.

The decorations are laying in the boxes I’ve already taken out. It would be awesome if you could help me put them up?

Thank you so much! Just be careful, I’ve found some super scary decorations. Make sure you don’t get scared to death!

Objectives: Decorate the farm, then talk to Loretta.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Click on each of the three boxes Loretta has left out near each building on the farm. When all the decorations have been put up, return to Loretta.

loretta2

Thank you so much! So, what do you think? Best decorations ever or what?

Quest completed

______________

Creepy Lights

loretta2

Have you seen the nice cressets I found? Can you take them outside?

Thank you so much. Seriously, those cressets outside will create a really scary atmosphere. Just let me know if you start getting scared. Haha.

Objectives: Bring the cressets outside, then talk to Loretta.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Place the lanterns on the ground near the entrance to the farm, then return to Loretta.

loretta2

Thanks! So nice of you to offer to help me with this! It’s almost worth an invitation to the party.

Quest completed

______________

Present Panic

loretta2

Oh no! Seriously Rita! This is a total disaster!

What should I do?!

I have one word for you: Panic!

I’ve forgotten Tan’s present down by the stables. She’s gonna show up any minute now so I won’t have time to ride down there to get it. How could I have forgotten the present? I’m like the worst friend ever.

You think you can get it? Are you sure?

Oh, so nice of you. If you do this you can definitely stay for the party, you’ve earned that… But only if you manage to bring the present here in time!

Objectives: Ride down to the stables and get Tan’s present.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

Race the timer down to the stable, pick up the present, and run back to Nilmer’s, all before Tan makes her way there to the party.

loretta2

You found it! You’re the BEST! Now you can definitely stay for the party.

Quest completed

______________

Best Party Ever!

loretta2

Woohoo!

CONGRATULATIONS TAN!

Haha, you wanna stick around, Rita? Of course you will, it’s gonna be super fun! Now you can relax and have fun.

______________

Just the Fun Clean Up Left

loretta2

You have to agree that the party was a total success. I don’t know if I managed to scare Tan exactly, but maybe a little? Haha, she seemed really happy and pleased, so thanks for all the help Rita.

Now it’s just the fun part left… Or not. We have to clean up everything now. Sigh.

Can you be so nice to stay behind and help me?

Great! If you start taking down the decorations and the cressets, I’ll do the rest.

Objectives: Clean up after the party, then talk to Loretta.

Thanks for all the help Rita! I wouldn’t have managed without you.

Quest completed

______________

A Thank You Present? Or Leftovers?

loretta2

As a thanks for all the help, I’ve gotten you a little present. Actually, I think it should’ve been enough that you got to stay for the party, but anyway, I had this riding helmet I didn’t want to keep. I got it when I ordered a new pair of shoes, but I already had one like it at home, so you can have it. 

I have it down by the stables, ride down there and meet me there so you can get it. 

Objectives: Talk to Loretta.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP, Pink Bobcat Helmet

Reputation: 10 with Bobcats

Ride down to the stables and meet Loretta by her usual spot.

loretta2

There you go!

Thanks for all the help and I hope you had as much fun at the party as I did. If you want to have as pretty clothes as I have, you can buy them in our cool Bobcat shop next door. 

Before I forget, talk to the other girls in Bobcats if you want. They probably have stuff they need help with. 

Quest completed

Help the other Bobcat girls to unlock their quests as daily tasks with which you can begin to build reputation with their faction.

Racing for Racing’s Elite

sophia

Hey! I never found time to introduce myself, but I saw you at Tan’s party. My name’s Sophia, and you’re Rita, right?

I talked to Tan and Loretta, and they both agreed with me that you should be allowed to try our new all-terrain track, as a thank you for all your help with the party. Since you got an awesome helmet from Loretta AND got to come to our exclusive party, I think you should feel pretty honored.

Objectives: Get to the finish as quickly as you can.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP, 125 Horse XP

Reputation: 50 with Bobcats

This new track is the original Bobcats’ track in reverse, with lots of more obstacles that you can either jump over or run around.

Speak to Sophia when you complete the race.

sophia

Wow! You’re pretty good! Not as amazing as me, of course. Duh. But yeah, not bad. Just say if you wanna try again because this track is perfect for all-terrain training!

Quest completed

______________

You Scratch My Back, I’ll Scratch Yours

tan2

Hey Rita!

Thanks for the party! Loretta told me you helped out, it was amazing!

It was pretty bad timing though. Sigh.

We’re gonna have a competition against another club soon, and it’s really important we win.

Oh yeah, like when I say “we,” I don’t mean you, no offence. It’s not like you’re not a Bobcat, but you’re only a novice.

Yeah, like, don’t take it the wrong way or anything. Sure, you’re a Bobcat and sure you got to come to our party, but you’re still just a little amateur. Plus you’re not as cool or as awesome at riding as I am.

I totally like you though, you’re like nice and stuff. If you carry on helping me and the others like you do, you might get to climb up the ladder someday, maybe you’ll even be club champion… Hahahahahaha!

Anyway, back to reality, I need some help taking photos of the route the racetrack takes for one of the competitions we’ll be riding in. We. Not you. Yeah, so we’re gonna use the pictures to check out the course and see which parts are the hardest, so we can do extra training on those bits. Wanna help with that?

Sweet! Thanks for helping!

Objectives: Photograph the race course for Tan.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 25 with Bobcats

Follow the route of the racetrack and use the camera on the indicated locations. When you have enough photos, return to Tan.

tan2

Are these the pictures? They’re perfect!

My thoughts about you aren’t totally wrong… You belong here in the Bobcats.

Climbing Up the Bobcat Ladder!

julie

Hey!

You’re the one who helped Loretta with Tan’s party, right? What was your name again?

Rita? Cool name. I’m Julie.

Listen, I heard that you help a lot of people around here. Do you fancy doing me a really big favor?

Nice! It’s not really that big a deal, I just need you to groom all the horses in Moorland Stables, it’ll go like super fast, don’t stress.

Why can’t I groom them? Umm, hello? Why do you think? Duhh…

You blind? You can’t see my awesome new trousers? Anyway, I’ve got more important things to do. Daddy’s in town and has promised me a whole new wardrobe so we’re going to Jorvik City Plaza to shop. All my clothes are like, so last year. Can hardly bring myself to leave the house wearing some of that stuff. Probably should make him get my nails done as well, they need looking after… So you’ll groom the horses, Rita?

Pleeeeease? Super cute awesome beautiful Rita?

Thanks!

Objectives: Groom the horses in Moorland Stables, then return to talk to Julie.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 25 with Bobcats

If sitting at the top of the ladder means being a total spoiled brat, then I’m not sure that’s a ladder I want to climb….

Dismount your horse to use the brush on each of the stable horses, then return to spoiled bitch Julie.

julie

Oh nice! Thanks so much! We’re gonna be good friends, you and me!

I’ll put in a good word for you with the girls. If you keep this up, you’ll just keep climbing the Bobcat ladder, haha!

a disappearing horse, all fabric and no needles, can you scare someone nicely, conrad, derek, donald, dont say a word, i could eat up my own tools, invisible like a ghost, is he eating needles, lethargy which can destroy everything, loretta, lorettas ghost story, may, no marks or holes as far as the eye can see, on the trail of lynx, rent a ghost, tan, the race to return to moorland, the waiting game, tracking the tracks

Speak to May to see if she got Lynx back from the blacksmith.

A Disappearing Horse

may

Rita!!

Honest to goodness, this is a total disaster!!

Aaaaaagggghhh!!

A mega catastrophe! I knew Lynx was a character, but I never thought this would happen…

Sorry, Rita, you’ve got no idea what’s happened… Lynx has disappeared!!

Lynx wasn’t very calm when he got back with his new shoes, so I left him on his own for a while to relax. But then one of the stable girls needed my help with something and I swear I couldn’t have been away for more than like a minute but then he’d disappeared…

He was gone… Totally without a trace.

Aaaaahhh, how am I ever gonna find him? He could have run off absolutely anywhere! What am I gonna do?! What’ll I tell my cousin?! “Hey cuz, listen, just so you know, I’ve lost your horse…” NO! I can’t say that! Seriously, she’d lose her bananas and never talk to me again.

Ohhhhh my gosh…

What? You would? You would help me find him?!

OH MY DAYS, you’re like the best! Any idea where we should start looking?

Great idea! Let’s ask around! Someone must’ve seen something. We’ll split up and I’ll see you back here in a while.

Objectives: Ask around Moorland Stables if anyone’s seen Lynx and then return to May.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

Ride around the stable area and speak to the various people standing around. Maybe someone saw something? Report back to May when you have investigated enough.

may

Okay, so nobody saw anything?

Not exactly helpful…

Quest completed

______________

Tracking the Tracks

may

What do we do now? Nobody seems to have seen anything. How can you not notice a runaway horse?

Or, well, I supposed I missed it, but seriously though. Someone should’ve seen him!

You have an idea, you say?

That’s great, Rita! Can’t believe I didn’t think of it myself. Let’s see if we can find Lynx’s hoof prints. Since he’s got new shoes, his tracks should look different from all the others around here.

Objectives: Look on the ground around Moorland Stables to see if you can find Lynx’s hoof prints.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

Search the areas around the stables until you pick up on Lynx’s track.

self

You find hoof prints on the ground…

They seem different from the others… Could they belong to Lynx?

Quest completed

______________

On the Trail of Lynx

self

You’re not completely sure, but following the tracks feels like it’s worth a try. Like May said, they differ from the others.

Objectives: Follow the tracks and see if you can find Lynx.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Where could this trail lead?

self

You found Lynx!

He stares at you and doesn’t look particularly interested in following you back…

Quest completed

______________

The Race to Return to Moorland

self

Just as everyone says, Lynx seems like a stubborn, cheeky, and lively horse. No way is a little bit of sugar going to lure him back.

What are you going to do?

His eyes meet yours and you suddenly realize: to get Lynx back to the stable, you need to challenge him to a race. A horse like Lynx loves competition, and would never back down from a chance to win.

You and Summerblaze start to limber up. Who’s the fastest? You and Summerblaze or Lynx? Who can get back to the stable first?

Lynx snorts eagerly. He’s ready for the challenge.

…But are you?

Objectives: Compete against Lynx. Who’ll be the fastest back to Moorland Stables?

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP, Black Spring Shoes

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Quick as the wind, my trusty steed!

may

Wow, that was fast! I felt the breeze whoosh past when you flew in through the gates. 

Thanks for finding Lynx and bringing him back.

Now I just need to make sure I keep an eye on him! As a thanks for all your help, you can have this little present from which I got from my cousin for looking after Lynx, but you deserve it more. Now I need to carry on working, I’ll chat to you later!

Quest completed

Tan seems to be a bit jittery, let’s go see what is up with her.

Loretta’s Ghost Story

tan2

Hi Rita! Hey, I have to ask you something.

Has Loretta talked to you about a ghost that haunts the abandoned farm?

Exactly! The one up in Nilmer’s Highland. Did you know about that already?

Okay, maybe she just hasn’t had time to talk to you yet.

But you see… The reason I ask is that Loretta and I talked about the ghost before, and she told me that place was haunted.

Ha. Ha. Yeah, but like not because I believe in ghosts or anything. I mean, who does? Maybe a five-year-old. Ha. Ha…

But like, not because I believe in ghosts or anything, duh! But Loretta said she’d lost her warm riding gloves at the farm and I promised to get them. Since I don’t believe in that kind of stuff.

But jeez. It just feels so silly, why should I ride up there just because she believes in ghosts? Boy.

You don’t look like you have that much to do, Rita, can’t you ride up there and see if you’ll find something?

Ha, let me know if you see any ghosts.

Objectives: Ride up to the abandoned farm in Nilmer’s Highland to see if you can find anything.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Poke around Nilmer’s and see what you can find. Let’s hope you aren’t too afraid!

Return to Tan when you have found something.

tan2

Wait! Those are Loretta’s gloves! You found them at the farm, you said?

Then she was telling the truth…

Quest completed

______________

Invisible, Like a Ghost

tan2

Sorry Rita, I was just thinking out loud…

But like seriously, I don’t know what to think. Loretta said she’d lost them here, because she was running away from a ghost. I thought she was kidding at first, like she was trying to scare me or something. Like I’d fall for something like that, duh.

But at the same time, would Loretta leave her clothes behind? I mean nobody in their right mind would abandon an item of clothing… As long as it wasn’t outdated, dorky, or just generally ugly of course.

Seriously, promise not to tell anyone but Loretta has been behaving strange lately. I don’t know how to explain it, she’s just been strange. Like all that talk about a ghost, or that she didn’t want to tag along to Jorvik City yesterday!

Rita!

Quiet!

Loretta is coming! Can’t you follow her and try to find out what’s going on?

Awesome, I knew I could count on you.

Objectives: Follow Loretta without being noticed.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stables

Follow Loretta; don’t get to close so that she’ll see you following and don’t get to far behind so that you lose sight of her. Let’s see what this sneaky girl is up to…

loretta2

And what exactly are you doing? Do you think I’m stupid or something? You don’t think I noticed you followed me the whole way here?!

Quest completed

______________

Can You Scare Someone Nicely?

loretta2

You’ve talked to Tan, right? Admit it, Rita!

HA! I knew it!

Seriously, you can’t tell Tan anything, promise me that! I can only tell you if you promise not to say anything.

Thanks!

Tan’s birthday is coming up soon and I, as her BFF, was thinking about planning a surprise party for her.

I got the idea a few days ago when Tan and I were watching a scary movie. It was really unpleasant actually… But Tan just thought it was silly and was like, dying of laughter because I thought it was scary. I was like, HELLO, mature much? Like I can help being easily frightened.

But anyway, I thought I’d have a bit of fun with this. Call it revenge, but it’s a pretty sweet revenge if you ask me.

I thought I’d trick her into thinking the farm up here was haunted.

Oh, did she tell you about that? Did she seem to believe that?

She just needs a bit more convincing. I thought we’d decorate and make it seem creepy and ghostly up here.

When everything’s ready we just need to trick Tan and come up here and get her to believe it’s haunted so we can finally start the party.

I think it’ll be awesome, or what do you think?

Sooo, you want to help me or do you want to help me?

Objectives: Talk to Loretta.

Rent-A-Ghost

loretta2

So nice of you to help me!

I’ve done tons of shopping for the party and everything is nearly ready now. We’re just missing a ghost that Tailor Donald was gonna sew.

I probably would’ve bought something online instead, feels safer. But Justin has talked about how great he is, and if Justin says so it MUST be true. 

Donald promised he’d post my order when he was finished, but I haven’t gotten any package yet. I hope it hasn’t gotten stuck somewhere on the way.

Can you ride to Silverglade Village and ask Derek if he has the package over there? Then I don’t have to wait for the post.

Awesome!

Objectives: Talk to Derek.

Quest completed

______________

Don’t Say a Word!

derek

Whew!

How luck it was you who came Rita. I’m guessing you’re here to pick up Loretta’s order. Ugh, imagine her reaction if she was here now…

You have to promise not to tell her anything, but there’s been a ton of problems. First the delivery guy was delayed, then he had an accident on the way here. One of his wheels came off and most of the goods in the car fell out.

You don’t have to worry, Rita, nobody got hurt, but the delivery guy had to take the car to get it fixed. The fabric Donald was going to use for Loretta’s order is presumably lying somewhere along the road.

I would’ve gladly gathered up all the parcels, but I couldn’t leave the post office unattended. I managed to gather up quite a few, but not all of them.

Would you be able to help me gather up the parcels?

Thanks! If we get it done quickly nobody needs to know anything.

Objectives: Pick up the package, then talk to Derek.

There we go! I had to wrap the fabric up into a new parcel, as the old one picked up a pretty big hole.

Just gotta keep our fingers crossed that the fabric wasn’t damaged!

Could you take this package to Donald?

Thanks! Hope he’s not too upset that it’s late…

______________

All Fabric and No Needles

donald

Thanks!

I thought my light fabric order was gone forever. Could barely manage to think about all the sad and disappointed customers I’d get.

Sigh.

But the fabric is here now so it doesn’t matter anyway. I had needles before but no fabric. And now when I have the fabric, I can’t seem for find my needles…

The blacksmith? Like he has time to help me fix new needles. I think he has a lot more important things to do than to help me. And how would I even get there? I can barely be outside without getting a sunstroke, break my legs, or get lost.

Sigh.

It’s not like I can forbid you asking him, but you know the road to Moorland is very dangerous, right?

It’s a wonder anyone survives, without tripping over all the stones and falling to their death.

Objectives: Talk to the Blacksmith.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stables

Ride to Conrad Marsdeen and ask him about making new needles for Donald.

Good day to you Rita! How’s my favorite rider today?

Sewing needles for Donald, you say?

Quest completed

______________

The Waiting Game

conrad_marsdeen

Of course I can make sewing needles! You know I can Rita, it’s just the pessimist Donald who thinks the world is against him.

Before I can help you, I have to finish another task. Would you mind gathering some wood for me in the meantime? We need to heat the fire properly to be able to make the best sewing needles.

Thank you so much Rita.

Objectives: Gather firewood then talk to the blacksmith.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Gather firewood from around the forge, then return to Conrad.

conrad_marsdeen

Thanks for gathering firewood for me! Now we’ve got enough to get down to business.

Quest completed

______________

Is He Eating Needles?!

conrad_marsdeen

Now I’m ready. Donald needed new needles, you said?

What does that man actually do with his needles? Does he eat them or what? He needs new ones like every five minutes! Hmm…

In order to make sewing needles of the highest quality, I would need your help. Can you help me?

Thanks! Can you ride down to the beach and see if you can find any dark Jorvegian amber? If I melt that together with the ore I have, I can create one of the most durable material there is.

Objectives: Gather dark Jorvegian amber from the beach and then talk to the blacksmith.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Ride to the beach behind Mrs Holdsworth’s house and collect the amber pieces you find. When you have enough, return to Conrad.

Quest completed

______________

Lethargy Which Can Destroy Everything

conrad_marsdeen

Here we go! Now we have everything and we can start with the sewing needles.

Mixing ore with amber is a very difficult and time-consuming task. It’s enough to lose concentration for just a moment and you have to start all over again. I’ll have to have complete focus when forging the needles so they’ll be perfect, so it would be great if you could assist me?

Thank you so much!

I’ll tell you what you have to do. If you just listen carefully, everything’s going to turn out great. Are you ready?

Objectives: Assist the blacksmith with the manufacturing of sewing needles.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

Dismount your horse to be able to start this quest.

You must be quick with your actions; if you leave Conrad wait too long, he will lose concentration and you will have to start the quest over.

Keep your inventory screen open so that you can quickly access items when you pick them up to hand them to Conrad.

When you have successfully forged the needles, speak to Conrad again.

conrad_marsdeen

Thank you so much for helping, Rita! Look at how beautifully the needles turned out! I couldn’t have done it without your help.

______________

I Could Eat Up My Own Tools

conrad_marsdeen

There! Have you ever seen such well-made needles? I wouldn’t think so. If Donald isn’t satisfied with this, I’ll eat up my own tools.

Haha, you don’t have to look so horrified, Rita. Of course I’m only kidding around. Could you take these to Donald, so that he can continue with his orders?

Thanks! Hope you’ll have a nice day!

Objectives: Give the needles to Donald in Silverglade Village.

Oh my! New needles? Who would’ve thought. Thank you so much. Just as well I’ll get started, not that I’ll ever get finished…

Come back tomorrow and we can see if I’m finished then.

Visit Mr Bucket, at his spot in North Link, to discuss arranging a horse trailer to North Link.

Full Speed to North Link!

mr_bucket

Good day to you Rita! So nice of you to visit this remote backwater, it’s certainly not every day we have such lovely visitors!

It is fairly time-consuming to get here. One might not exactly say it was a terribly exciting journey. What if it was somehow possible to shorten the path to Silverglade Village?

Hmm, now that I say it…

Ha! An idea!

Say, Rita, would you be interested in changing the current situation? A so called trailer to North Link could well be a good idea… What do you say? 

As you know, I myself must continue in my efforts to poke out any irregularities here at North Link, but you are, shall we say, more mobile than I… I dare say you might well be able to tackle this matter with tremendous enthusiasm! Are you interested?

Good Rita, very good indeed! Then I suggest you begin by consulting the Baroness. Most of the land around here is under her ownership you see. It’s also common knowledge that she’s in possession of the necessary funds for the acquisition of such a vehicle. 

Right then! I look forward to, in the not too distant future, a faster and more efficient transportation method for Silverglade Village than hitherto offered. The very best of luck to you, young Rita. Please present the radiant honorable lady Baroness with the very best of my regards. 

Objectives: Ask the Baroness about the possibilities for a horse trailer to North Link.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 5 with Silverglade Village

Ride to the Winery and speak to the Baroness there.

baroness

Good day to you, dearest Rita. How can I be of assistance this fine day?

Financing the Trailer

baroness

Mr Bucket wants me to organize and pay for a horse trailer to North Link?

I’m afraid I don’t see the use of such a trailer, and I have no grasp of quite why it should be me who should finance such a misadventure. No, Rita, you’ll have to let him know that I’m not interested.

Hmm? What did you say my dear? 

It would help you, too?

Hmm…

Well well, I certainly shan’t provide funds, but if you can find someone else who will, then you have my permission to place the trailer on my land next to the racetrack. My view is that if anybody should pay for it, it should be Silverglade Council. A horse trailer to the northern side of the Everwind Fields could well be of benefit to the entire community. 

I rather think you should discuss this with the Council Man in Silverglade Village. Bye bye Rita!

Objectives: Ask the Council Man in Silverglade Village about the horse trailer idea.

The Council Man’s Disappearing Clothes

council_man

Do please excuse my outfit, Rita; I’m having to wear my ‘backup’ suit today. You don’t see a difference? What luck. What can I do for you today?

A horse trailer to North Link? You’ve already got permission from the Baroness to place it at the Racetrack?

It all sounds rather interesting, but I dare say our budget won’t allow for it right now. Listen, how about you help me with a little problem I’m having and in return, I’ll look over the books and see if there aren’t a few pennies to be pinched here and there from the Council budget. What do you say?

Ah, magnificent! So here’s the thing: this morning, there was a very unfortunate incident that I can’t say I wish to speak of. Anyway… Somebody stole my clothes! Right there from under my nose! Stolen! I do believe however that the cheeky thief threw the clothes away as he or she escaped. Perhaps you could take a look around and see if you could find my jacket, my handkerchief, and my tie. I’d be very grateful indeed. They’ll be here in the village somewhere.

And listen, not a word about this to anyone. Please promise me that!

Objectives: Find the Council Man’s jacket, handkerchief, and tie, which have gone missing around Silverglade Village

Jacket Adjustment

council_man

Oh, good gracious!

My loveliest jacket. All busted and broken!

Oh, Rita. Do you think you could run this over to the tailor for me? He’s right here in the village of course, and it would be a wonder if you could ask him to repair it.

I promise after all of these little favors, I’ll definitely look into whether I can help you with this trailer idea of yours.

Objectives: Take the Council Man’s jacket to the tailor in Silverglade Village.

Ride to Donald, around the corner, behind Town Hall.

No problem!

Well, actually… Yes, problem.

Finding a Needle in Lots of Hay Stacks

donald

Right now, I’m unable to sew anything at all. Sigh.

I was over at Steve’s Farm, looking for stuffing for a chair I’m upholstering for Barney. He wanted a more rustic feel, so I went to Steve’s and looked through all the hay bales there so that I might find the comfiest hay. 

During my search, I must have lost my needle… As the old saying goes, something that’s impossible to do is like finding a needle in a haystack, but my needle may well be there amongst any number of haystacks, not just one! How impossible is it going to be to find it?! Sigh. Without my special sewing needle, I quite simply don’t have the desire to work at all.

You’ll take a look for it? Oh my, how lovely! There’s probably not much point, but feel free to try.

If losing my needle wasn’t quite so tragic for me, I’d have had a really good laugh at the irony…

Oh well, good luck. If you find my needle, I promise I’ll mend the Council Man’s jacket right away.

Objectives: Find the tailor’s sewing needle in amongst the bales of hay at Steve’s farm.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Tangle with the Town Hall Trash

council_man

Well, one other thing, my dear. It seems that someone has dumped an extraordinary amount of litter all around the Town Hall. All kinds of papers are flying around all over the place. Could you help me clean up? I have been able to grab most of the papers but there are some swirling so horrifically fast that I just can’t get my hands on them.

Now Rita, don’t throw the papers away once you catch them. They might give a clue as to who might have done the littering in the first place. Or something…

Objectives: Catch all the papers flying around Silverglade Village and return them to the Council Man.

Rewards: 30 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 15 with Silverglade Village.

Ride around and catch the swirling papers. They don’t move very quickly so they should be easy to catch. They are all inside the village walls. When you have caught all of them, return to the Council Man.

council_man

You’ve caught up with all the papers flying around the place? Handsome work!

My signature was on them? You should have read them, I said… Hmm, okay.  suppose I should tell you what’s happened.

Quest completed

______________

The Tower of Trousers

council_man

Okay, okay. The papers were all mine, and there wasn’t really a thief who made off with my clothes. It’s all rather embarrassing. I’m certainly no slacker, but this morning I was so very tired that I snuck away to take a little snooze. It’s honestly not something I’d usually do, but somehow this morning I was sleepy enough to have it be the first time. I crept up into the clock tower where there isn’t usually anybody around. I laid down right in front of the clock face so I could have a nice view, and as I was getting comfortable, I noticed that the minute hand was a little off. Not by much, but when you’re right next to it, you may as well do something to try and fix it. I opened up the little hatch next to the clock face and climbed out to set the minute hand straight. I’ve seen Big Bonny do it a hundred times and it looked like a piece of cake, but I can tell you it most certainly was not!

As I reached out, I slipped and fell out of the hatch! I just about managed to grab hold of the minute hand and stopped myself falling to a certain death in the town square.

So there I am, alive at least, but how would I get back up again? I tried to swing my legs to get some kind of grip so that I might lift myself up but it didn’t quite work. The only thing I managed to do was to kick a nest of wasps, and my good gracious, they buzzed out of that nest as quick as a flash!

When I saw them, I of course panicked and somehow managed to get in through the hatch again, but my trousers were still out there on the clock…

I fled down the stairs and through the village and that’s when I lost all the papers along with the rest of my clothes. Up to the castle I ran, and it was only when I got all the way up there that I noticed the wasps had stopped following me. So, now you know the truth. Promise not to tell anyone!

If you could just retrieve my trousers from up in the clock tower, I promise I’ll get that horse trailer on the road for you. Do we have a deal?

Thanks Rita, I can always rely on you! Since you’re much younger and stronger than me, you’ll probably have no problem getting out through the hatch up there and retrieving my trousers.

Thanks again, and good luck!

Objectives: Go up into the clock tower and see if you can find the Council Man’s trousers.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 5 with Silverglade Village

Dismount your horse to enter the small door to the clock tower, near the stairs that go down into the main village square.

(You’re under attack by furious wasps! Get out of here as quickly as you can! They’re furious!)

Objectives: Hot-foot it out of the Clock Tower before you’re stung by the wasps.

Rewards: 50 Jorvik Shillings, 35 XP

Reputation: 25 with Silverglade Village

This quest will take several tries to complete as it is a little difficult without practice!

You have five seconds to run down the stairs and make it to the exit of the clock tower. If you do not reach the exit in time, you will be stung and have to start over.

My advice:

Stop your character as far away from the wasps as you can while still being able to initiate the dialogue. Also, turn your character towards the stairs as much as you can. If you use the keyboard to move, keep your cursor on the screen, about your character’s head (to be able to quickly click on the exit when you reach it). When you are running down the stairs, stay on the opposite side of the next stairwell (i.e. on the far left with the first stairs, then on the far right with the next stairs) so that you can make the wide turn needed to keep the running pace.

I completed it in three or four tries. It is not extremely difficult but will need some preparation and a bit of practice to be able to do it quickly.

When you reach the outside, the wasps will stop chasing you. Speak to the Council Man when you escape.

council_man

Oh! You’ve got my trousers! No? Oh.

You were attacked by wasps you say? Furious you say? I’d have though they’d have flown away by now. What on earth should we do then?

Help From the Wasp Whisperer

council_man

 Here, I wonder if Big Bonny could help us? What do you reckon? It’s her clock to all intents and purposes, so I rather think she should step up and help us with this! Rita, be a darling and ask Big Bonny for help, but hurry! These backup trousers aren’t anywhere near as warm as my regular ones, and even though I’m wearing my extra-cozy pink underpants, I’m still freezing my buttons off! Umm… Forget the bit about the pink… Whatever. Yes. Bye.

Ahem! So, Miss Rita, go and ask Big Bonny and I’ll wait here. 

Objectives: Ask Big Bonny for help with the wasp issue.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with Silverglade Village

Speak to Big Bonny in front of her house behind the clocktower.

big_bonny

Hello there, Rita, my little dazzling jewel of the skies!

What I’m doing? Well. I just returned from my usual stroll around the village so that I might absorb the love and joy and gratitude so freely beamed towards me by the residents of this breathtaking paradise. It’s almost a touch on the awkward side, you know, having to put up with how much they all look up to me, but it’s a burden I carry with pride. So, what brings you to me on this day? Some kind of heroic deed that you need me to heroically deedify? Some heroically heroic deedification? Hmm?

The Council Man’s trousers are stuck in the clock. In the clock in the Clock Tower.

…

Rita! Who exactly do you think I am? It’s straight up-and-down shameful that you come to me, ME, with this kind of filthy suggestion. I’m not some kind of filth wizard, you know. His filthy old pants, that he’s hung in my clock tower, and you think I’m some washer woman who’ll just come and take them to him all neatly folded and pressed like I’m some sort of dry cleaning clockmaker?

It’s not laundry? He was about to fall from the tower?! Hmph! Well then, if he’s silly enough to be up there unsupervised in the first place, then his tacky old trousers can very well stay up there. I’ll not for a second be taking them down.

What? Wasps? There were some furious wasps in the tower that scared him so much so that he lost his trousers? Haha! Well, this story just gets more and more ridiculous, Rita, and I think I might very well stop listening before I puncture a lung from laughing so much.

Hang on.

Wait.

STOP! REWIND! REWIND THE TAPE! REWIND, REWIND, REWIND!

WASPS?!!!

WASPS??!!! IN MY CLOCK?!?!?!?!

WHY DOES ALL THIS WICKEDNESS AND ATROCITY ALWAYS VISIT ME?!

WHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY???!!!

WHY ALL THIS EEEVVVIILLLLLLLL…. Cough… Cough…

(You give Bonny a firm whack on the back.)

Oh, thanks, excuse me. Wasps. Bzzzz… Waspy, waspo, waspy, wasps…

Some Sidetracking Shenanigans

big_bonny

Stand yourself there my little diamond and allow me to tell you something. This clockmaker is in no way a friend of the wasp. We’ve been mortal enemies since the beginning of time.

If there are two things I hate, it’s broken clocks, wasps, and broccoli. And shampoo…

WASPS!!!

WAAAAAASPS!! OH MY GOATS!! I can barely breathe with the rage of simply thinking about them. Those little beasts are in MY clock, and everyone knows Big Bonny’s rhyme: whippety whipple, whippety wok, ain’t nobody got time for wasps up in their clock. 

So yeah, I swear to get back the Council Man’s trousers if it’s the last thing I do! I promise here and now that those trousers will be back on his beautiful legs even if it costs me my life! My life! I HEREBY SACRIFICE MY LIFE FOR THE COUNCIL MAN’S TROUSERS!! DO YOU HEAR ME??!!

…

Mm! I think everyone heard that. It wouldn’t do to die in service and have nobody know about my heroic sacrifice.

So, Rita, here’s the plan. Listen carefully, I shall say this only once!

I’ll sneak into the clock tower, creep up the hugely dangerous stairs, unfold myself out of that deadly hatch and onto that dismal clock face, protected only by the very safe safety cord attaching me safely to the tower. Then, very carefully, very slowly, yet incredibly heroically I shall reach out and PLUCK the trousers from the clock face and remove myself from the death trap that is the clock tower without losing my balance or the trousers. It’s incredibly, uncommonly, astonishingly, FABULOUSLY DANGEROUS, so it’s not something I’m comfortable leaving up to you, Rita.

But fear not, my little pumpkin, you can also be a part of this heroic act of heroism. I have a very simple and entirely danger-free task for you. Not especially packed with honor or prestige, but just by helping me, people will certainly come to see you as some kind of shadow-dwelling semi-hero anyway! Some kind of sidekick to the main legend perhaps? 

So! The only thing you need to do is climb up into the clock tower and make the wasps so extraordinarily furious that they come after you and try to sting seven shades of Sunday out of you… When they’re screamingly furious, all that you need to do is run out of there and let them chase you a bit while I get the trousers. Shouldn’t take more than about a quarter of an hour. Piece of cake!

If it’s dangerous? Unfortunately, we don’t have time for questions. Get going! Up in the tower with you, and make those wasps’ blood boil! Don’t worry, I’m right behind you the whole time!

Good luck!

Objectives: Go up into the clock tower and enrage those wasps! Make them angry!

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with Silverglade Village

Approach the wasps again to make them angry. You will need to do your run out of the clock tower again, so make sure to position yourself to be ready for it.

When you have evaded the wasps, speak to Big Bonny again.

big_bonny

I made it, Rita! I did it! Ooooh yes, the feeling of accomplishment from having done this task makes my heart frizzle with delight!

Of course you should also receive a little thank you, because even if your contribution isn’t really as big as mine, you did in fact make a little effort in sharing part of the work.

If I’m not exaggerating? Haha! I’m only going so far over the top because I’m so flippin’ lovely! Your contribution to this mammoth task was basically zero, but people are going to talk about how you were part of it all anyway, so I suppose I may as well talk up your role a tiny bit. But that’s just Bonny y’know! A great old girl with a heart of gold!

Another Heroic Deed Complete

Naahh, y’know what? I need to get myself home and take it easy for a while before all the reporters come running, demanding an interview with me!

See you soon!

Now, I’m going to get to work on keeping my promise and start looking for some spare money for a horse trailer by the Racetrack! It might take a while, but I’m sure I’ll come up with something if you’re patient!

Hi there, Rita! Indeed, I’ve heard of you. You have really been of aid on the farms around here, and for that, Angus and Idun wanted me to show you the Greendale Race.

Thanks Rita, you’re truly a great help. You can find my relative, Karl Franz of Silver Fork, somewhere close by. Ride to him and put yourself to his disposal. What he wants? I believe he wanted to open a restaurant here if I’m not mistaken. You’ll have to ask him yourself, Rita. See you later.

I’m going to start a restaurant here, you understand. Why?

If I may have a copy on my computer? Unfortunately, no. I don’t trust modern appliances, and writing on a keyboard is so inelegant. No. Give me an old-fashioned fountain pen and proper paper! If I’ve copied my notes some time? No, I don’t trust modern appliances, I told you. What if the copy machine swalled my notes?! Then they’d be gone forever!

Expensive Isn’t Always Best

james

Let’s have a look at this list. Hmm…

That I don’t have. Nor that. No. Not that either.

Actually, I don’t have anything of what he’s written down in his list, but I can procure chinaware and decorations just as good. No problem, you can trust me!

It’s gonna be expensive. But if your name is Karl Franz, I take it that money isn’t an issue, I get that.

Let’s see… It says here, “One hundred crystal glasses from Paris’s best glass maker.” I’ll borrow some water glasses from the disco, that’ll do.

“Ten antique vases from the Ming dynasty.” I’ll just take a few buckets from the stable. He won’t notice the difference.

Oh, you’re still here, Rita? I have to work, but tell him I’ll make the delivery tomorrow. 

Objectives: Ride back to Karl Franz and tell him the delivery of chinaware and decorations will arrive in the morning.

Return to Karl and tell him about the decorations.

karl_franz

How did it go, Rita? Could he procure everything on the list?

No? Oh. But he said he was going to get items of equal quality? That’s lovely to hear. This James sounds like an honest person, it seems I did the right thing in giving him the order. You look doubtful, Rita. Do I need to worry? Oh, this is making me nervous…

Let’s go help Ydris set up the tent.

It is Not So Good… Not Quite Right…

ydris

Let’s see here… Good that you have a horse. It is heavy work to stretch up the tent material so we need your horsepower. Should we get started?

…

That didn’t turn out quite right. I think we didn’t manage to stretch out the ropes correctly… Or maybe the tent is upside down… What do you think?

You think we should tighten the outer ropes? You are welcome to try as we definitely can’t have it looking like this. It is better if the Fool and I stay out of the way if you have a plan.

Objectives: Tighten the ropes of the tent.

Rewards: 30 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 5 with Moorland Stable

Go around to each of the ropes to tighten it,  then return to Ydris.

ydris

You were right, Rita! Now the tent looks as it should. But what is this?? There are lost of holes in the tent?! You have to be kidding me!

Quest completed

______________

Does the Tailor Have Any Patches of Material Left?

ydris

These holes in the tent are a catastrophe! It doesn’t matter how they got there. Holes are holes and we have them in our tent. We have to fix them!

Can you speak with the tailor in town? He might have some patches we can use to fix the tent. Ride to the tailor in Silverglade Village and ask him. Bring back the whole tailor if you have to!

Objectives: Ride to the tailor in Silverglade Village and ask about patches for the tent.

Rewards: 30 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Patches Ready

I have lots of extra pieces of cloth and you are welcome to them. Can you sew? Good! Then you can go ahead and take this pile of patches! Good luck!

Quest completed

______________

Patch the Tent

ydris

Can you sew? Fantastic! You are so talented. A jack of all trades. Take the patches and fix the holes in the tent. I’m sorry the Fool and I don’t know how to sew. I could barely get the needle through the thread. Or was it get the thread through the needle? Eye of the needle? Hole of the thread?

Objectives: Patch all the holes.

Rewards: 30 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 5 with Moorland Stable

Ride around the tent to patch up the holes. Make sure to get the holes that are high up towards the top of the tent. When you are done with the patches, return to Ydris.

ydris

Thirteen holes fixed! That should be all of them! You say that there are fourteen holes?

Aha. The entrance is also a hole. You are such a little joker. Good that you didn’t sew that shut though.

Quest completed

______________

More Decorating

ydris

There are a lot of patches left over that we can use as flags! What do you think?

Try and hang up a few of these in the ropes around the tent. I don’t think we should let the Fool anywhere near the ropes again… Flags are fantastic things to have and they look great on a carnival.

Objectives: Put up the flags on the circus tent ropes.

Rewards: 30 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Dotting the “I”

ydris

The Last Place You Look

tan

Yes, I remembered that I was at the lighthouse! You know, the large green and white lighthouse east of Moorland Stable, south of Jasper’s barn. I was there and looked at the view. The money has to be there! Could you be the nicest person ever and ride there and look? I think you’ll have to search all around the lighthouse.

Have the Bees Moved?

mrs_holdsworth

Dear Rita! It worked They are buzzing a lot over there and my garden is free from bees. But I’m a bit worried that they will move back into their old home so I think it’s best to destroy it. Can’t you, who are sitting on a horse, examine the old nest and see to that no bees are still in there? That would be so sad!

Quest completed

______________

To Stay Calm

Rewards: 120 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP, A Bee Top

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

There’s trouble up in Silverglade Village. Go see Felix about it.

Something Missing

Quest completed

______________

Ducks on the Run, Has Will Seen Anything?

felix

Every spring around this time, the fountain ducks come to stay all summer and swim in the cool fountain. They haven’t returned from their winter migration so I have a feeling that something has happened to them.

Hi there. What’s that? The ducks haven’t returned from their winter migration? That’s not good. All villagers like to look at the ducks during the summer as they bathe and swim in the fountain. It would be a shame if they disappeared.

Quest completed

______________

Examine the Stopover

will

I haven’t seen the ducks yet this year, but what I’ve seen in previous years is that they land one last time on Everwind Fields and rest before they head into the village and receive the people’s cheers.

Return to Will when you have found a clue.

A Shipment of Cabbage is on Its Way

steve

You know what? The cabbage has arrived! Take this pile of cabbage and put them into the holes in the field, as the vet said. Then we’ll see if the small creatures will act friendly towards you.

Objectives: Place the cabbage into the holes the chipmunks have dug on Steve’s field, to the east of his farm.

So they peeked up from the holes and seemed happy? Great!

A New Home for the Chipmunks

steve

What do you think about letting them live behind the barn? In the corner of the old wall where the race starts. Then we won’t have to walk very far when it’s time to give them cabbage.

Here, take these signs and put them up around here so no one walks or rides into this area and gets hurt. We don’t want any tourists to get stuck either.

Objectives: Put up signs behind the barn at Steve’s farm.

______________

A Bathtub for the Chipmunks

steve

What? You think we should give them a bathtub? Aha, the vet said that they like to take baths because they get so dirty when they dig. Yes, that sounds fair. Barney at the silo has some old water troughs and I’m sure he’ll give one to us.

Barney used to be outside his silo to the east of us, not far away. Oh, that’s right, you’ve met him before.

Hunt for the Perfect Bathtub!

barney

Of course you can take an old water trough. I think there’s one behind the silo. If you can find one and it’s not broken you can take it.

Quest completed

Advice From the Vet

vet

I’m back now, sorry that you had to wait. I did some thinking while I was away and I think that the best approach is to befriend the chipmunks. Yes, befriend. They love cabbage. If you put down cabbage in the holes and I guarantee that they will love you. After that you can build a place where they are allowed to dig. You can mark the place with signs so people know it has holes. If you give the chipmunks some cabbage now and then they’ll stay. They also like to take baths because they get so dirty when they dig. Tell Steve this.

Objectives: Tell Steve what the vet said. He’s at Steve’s farm outside Silverglade Village.

Tractor Out of Gas

barney

My tractor is out of gas and I had a breakdown out on the road. My diesel tank is also empty! I forgot to refill my own tank. When this happens I usually borrow some diesel from Steve – he owes me some so it’s ok for him. Take this can and ride to the tank next to Steve’s farm and fill it up. After that you can refuel my tractor, it’s standing out on the road. Return to me when you are done.

Objectives: Ride to the tank on Steve’s farm, fill the can with diesel and then refuel the tractor standing on the road beside Barney’s silo. Talk to Barney again after that.

A Very Busy Stargazer

I have time for you now. So, Steve thought that you could use the telescope to see who is digging the holes on his field. That’s completely nuts… but I do want to help you. I’ve very busy watching the sky as I’ve received some reports about mysterious light phenomena, but I haven’t seen any yet.

I have been so busy with that I haven’t had time to eat. Tell you what, if you can ride down to Elizabeth in Valedale and get some cupcakes for me I can let you borrow the telescope while I’m eating.

Head over to Derek to see what the news is on the gondola lift.

Gondola Lift is Delivered

derek

Answer to the order? Didn’t you see the helicopter?

They flew in a huge helicopter loaded down with all the parts for the gondola lift yesterday.They must have flown all night back and forth to get it all done. They were flying in the direction of North Link so I imagine it has all been delivered directly there.

Ride over there and check it out.

Quest completed

______________

We Are Missing an Excavator

buildmaster_olaf

The gondola lift was the most important thing, but of course we need a few more things too. This is the first time I’ve worked in Jorvik so I don’t know all the local builders here yet. I’ve spoken a bit with the guys digging the tunnel down there and we might be able to borrow the equipment we need from them.

The first thing we need is an excavator so we can level the ground where the new station will be built. Ride over and see if we can borrow their excavator.

Objectives: Speak with the builders at North Link and see if they will lend us an excavator.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Zombie Horses vs Excavators

crew_lead

Excavator… I only have one you know… but you can borrow my excavator if you help me with something. We have a lot of free time up here so I have a lot of time to spend on my favorite hobby, video games! Right now I don’t have any good games… but there is a game I really, really want to play right now… it might be the best horse game EVER! The problem is I can’t seem to find it here on the island.

Somebody has to have it! Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse is what it is called. Find me a copy of that game and you can borrow my excavator.

Like I said, I have no idea who might have a copy of it. Maybe someone who is interested in Pole Bending?

Objectives: Find someone who is interested in Pole Bending and see if they have a copy of Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse.

Quest completed

______________

Lost Zombies Horses

josh

It was a really great game, but much too scary for me. The pole bending tracks were so scare they gave me nightmares. But I couldn’t seem to stop playing the game. So I threw it away. The problem was I couldn’t find a single garbage can in all of Silverglade, not a single one. Eventually I sneaked up behind Jasper’s old house and hid it in the old stuff in his attic.

He has moved away so I thought it wouldn’t matter… I’m a little embarrassed about it now so you don’t need to give me a hard time about it The game is probably still there anyways…

Objectives: Ride to Jasper’s old house and look in the attic for the Zombie Horse Bending Apocalypse video game.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

james

Hello Rita! Hey, that’s my hat! I lost it a few days ago, where did you find it? At Jasper’s old house? It’s good that I sell those hats so I never have to be without one. But it was nice of you to ride all the way back here to return it.

Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse? I have that… or I used to have it.

Quest completed

______________

Video Game All Day

james

I remember now. I thought I would start a used-goods market, which would work great here in Fort Pinta, and I needed things to sell. I thought maybe Jasper had left some stuff behind that might be good enough to sell. But the only thing I found was that game, Zombie Pole Bending Apocalypse.

That must be the best game ever! It was so much fun to play… I played all night, and all day then all night again. I forgot to take care of my customers, it was THAT good! You understand I couldn’t keep doing that so I had to sell it.

The person who bought it was an older lady from Firgrove. I think her name was Ms Morse. She said she had never played games before but wondered what it was like. So I sold her the game and my old game console. I’m sure she is in Firgrove if you want to speak with her.

Pole Bending Apocalypse

Woohoo! What a game! Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse!!! I’ve been up playing all night and when the sun came up I knew I had to make a proper Pole Bending Apocalypse race… just like in the game!

But now I’m non sure it is a good idea… Now that the course is done, and I’ve calmed down a little, the course actually looks… Well it looks really dangerous actually. I don’t think I would be able to ride it myself.

You want to have the game? Oh… I don’t know… it was so much fun. Tell you what, if you can manage to ride my pole bending course I’ll give you the game as a reward.

Ride up to the western part of Nilmer’s Highlands. You know, the area to the west of the abandoned farm where I think you used to compete with the Bobcat girls. Ride to the rocky knolls to the far west of that area. If you’re lucky you can find some Lapis Lazuli there. Return to me when you’ve found three stones.
