I have not removed the quests from the original days, and I did not separate them ahead of time, because I did not originally plan to have this quest story arc on its own. I am putting them all together in one post so I can link it the Helpful Posts sidebar. I am still getting a lot of questions with these quests specifically. The original posts will still include these quests, this post just has them all pulled into one post.

Enjoy!

Day 12

Snowed in Once Too Often

mario

Hello Rita. Mon Dieu, the winters are terrible! Every year I get snowed in here and I sit in the observatory for months without seeing a single other living thing. Well… maybe  lemming or two but that isn’t really the same thing. Sigh… The whole route up here gets covered in snow and ice and avalanches fall almost every day. It is a life threatening trip to get up and down this mountain. Enough! I’m not doing this anymore!

I’ve written to the council in Silverglade to see if they can do anything about this. Yesterday I actually got an answer and the council man in Silverglade wants to speak with me. Can you ride down and see what he has to say? Just imagine if he has a solution to this problem!

Au Revoir Rita! Come see me when you find out what he has to say.

Objectives: Ride down to the councilman in Silverglade and speak with him about Mario.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

Ride back down the trail, back to Silverglade and speak with the councilman.

council_man

Good day! Yes, I have been working hard on finding a solution to Mario’s problem. Both on finding a solution and finding a way around the paperwork problems with it. It hasn’t been easy!

I wrote to Mario to let him know that the boss of the construction company we hired to solve the problem is now here in Silverglade. He is waiting in the town square for Mario to come and show him the observatory.

Now that you are here maybe you can help him instead? Go and speak with him Rita, he is standing by the fountain in the town square.

Quest completed

Speak with Buildmaster Olaf, who is standing in front of the fountain, facing the north gate to the village.

Meet the Head of the Construction Company

buildmaster_olaf

Are you Mario? Nah… of course you are not. You are Rita. Nice to meet you! I am master-builder Olaf. Such a nice village here… It must be terrible to leave here to go to work. But such is life!

The first thing we need to do is inspect the site to see what we need to do… should we build a tunnel… or a new road… we need to look for the best solution. Take this camera and ride up to North Link where they are digging a tunnel. Find a place to take some pictures where we can see the observatory clearly. While you take some pictures I’ll get a ride up there. We’ll look at your pictures up there and talk about it. I’ll meet you at North Link later.

Objectives: Ride up to North Link and find a good pace to take pictures of the observatory. Take some pictures of the observatory and speak with Olaf again later at North Link.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 15  XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

You can reach North Link by following the West Jorvik Highway north all the way up to the construction site. It is on the east side of the road.

Once you take the pictures, Olaf can be found on the little side road going off to the west of the main road, by the Baroness’ racing track.

buildmaster_olaf

There you are! Now we’ll have a look. Nice pictures!

Quest completed

______________

Foundation for Foundations

buildmaster_olaf

I see. Now that I’ve had a chance to think about it I think I know what to do. The mountain is too steep to build and a tunnel would be very expensive. The best choice, in my opinion and I am an engineer so I am right, would be to build a new gondola lift! If we are lucky we can use the foundations from the old line to build a new one. There must be more locations than we see in your pictures. Look for all the old foundations and place GPS locators on them. Once you have put out the GPS locators I can see them on my device here. When I can see the locations we can tell if we can use them or not.

Objectives: Find the old foundations for the old gondola lift and place GPS locators there. Ride back to master builder Olaf when you are done.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

The first foundation is across the road. The others are behind the first, north up towards the observatory. There are five of them in total.

buildmaster_olaf

Great. Now we’ll check my machine here…

Quest completed

______________

Fire in the Hole!

buildmaster_olaf

Hrmmm… The old foundations are no good to us to use. They re too badly built and too damaged to be safe. We need to build new foundations but first we need to get rid of the old ones.

Have you used dynamite before? No? Really? It isn’t hard. Just read this brochure…

“Instructions for Dynamite Use

1. Place the dynamite on what you want to get rid of.

2. Light the dynamite.

3. RUN!!!”

There… now you know as much about dynamite as I do. Blast away all the old broken foundations and we will build new ones. Good luck and be careful!

Objectives: Dynamite away all the old foundations. Speak with Buildmaster Olaf when you are done.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

Once you light the dynamite, you’ll have about ten seconds to run like hell. You’ll be safe by the next foundation.

And do not blow yourself up. If you do, you will have to restart the game, as the quest doesn’t reset correctly when you start it over.

buildmaster_olaf

Boom boom boom! What a fantastic bunch of explosions! They must have heard that all the way in Firgrove.

Quest completed

______________

Used is Best

buildmaster_olaf

I planned, thought some more, then planned some more while you were gone. We need a gondola lift to put up, so I searched and found one from the Alps that we are thinking of buying. It is solid and complete and best of all, cheap!

I’ve written up a purchase order letter. Please ride over to Derek at the post office and ask him to send it.

Objectives: Ask Derek in the Silverglade post office to mail the order for the Gondola Lift.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 30 XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

The post office is in the main square next to the town hall.

derek

Hiya Rita. A letter to the Alps? You are lucky, I was just going to send out all the international mail with the helicopter. Come back tomorrow and maybe you’ll have your answer. These things usually go quickly.

Quest completed

Return to Derek tomorrow.

______________

Day 13

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.

Objectives: Ride and see if you can see where the helicopter landed. It was flying in the direction of North Link.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

Ride up to Olaf and see the gondola delivered.

buildmaster_olaf

Yes! It has gone really smoothly Rita. The gondola lift has been delivered. Fantastic!

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

Reputation: 10 with Silverglade Village

Speak with the Crew Lead, back by the tunnel.

crew_lead

An excavator?

Quest completed

______________

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.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

There is one person in Moorland who likes Pole Bending, a lot. Josh. He’s at the track behind the Bobcat Girls paddock.

josh

Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse? I have that… or at least I used to have a copy.

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

Reputation: 10 with Moorland Stable

At Jasper’s house, dismount your horse and click on the door, and you’ll go up into the attic. Search for the game there.

Reputation: 10 with Fort Pinta

The hat looks strangely like James’ hat…

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.

Objectives: Speak with Ms Morse about Zombie Horse Pole Bending Apocalypse.

Pole Bending Apocalypse

ms_morse

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.

Objectives: Ride the Pole Bending Apocalypse race.

Now the trees are gone. Now it is time to build the foundations. Finally! Concrete is what we need! Pick up the concrete bags over there. What? Oops.

Quest completed

With that done, let’s go see how Marley is doing with his new shop.

A Last Inspection

marley

Guess what Rita, we’re almost done. It’s taken a long time but my paddock is finally ready to open! We only have one last thing to do, my brother has to come and do a final inspection of the paddock. Can you please ride to the vineyard and tell him? Thanks again Rita, I couldn’t have managed without you.

Objectives: Ride to the vineyard and talk to Carney again.

Carney is still outside the stables at the winery. Speak with him about inspecting Marley’s paddock again.

So, you want me to do another inspection? I hope you’re prepared, I won’t give you any special treatment just because Marley’s my brother! He should show me some respect, I’m his big brother. If I find even the tiniest problem with his paddock I’ll close it for good!

Quest completed

Go back to Marley and see how his inspection turned out.

Jorvik’s New Miracle

Rita, come check it out! What do you think? We’re now officially open! My brother examined the whole paddock with a magnifying glass but couldn’t find any problems! I want you to have the honor of riding the official initiation round in the paddock. Take Summerblaze around it and test the track! Good luck, you’re the best!

Will You Get Purple Color From Grapes?

donald

Hello Rita! Now we only need one more color, then I can start making your vest! What I need is a special tint of purple and I’ve heard that the Baroness herself has started using purple grapes to dye the fabric of her beautiful dresses. It’s only a rumor but I think you should ride to the vineyard and ask her! I can mix red and blue but I think your vest deserves the perfect purple tint.

Objectives: Ask the Baroness at the winery about how to make the finest purple color.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 45 XP

Reputation: 45 with Silverglade Village

Go and see the Baroness at the winery. She stands outside the Manor.

baroness

Where did you hear that, young lady? The tailor… Yes, it’s true. My grapes are so rich in pigment that if you do it the right way you can get a really nice purple color, which I like to use myself. But I don’t want everyone in Jorvik to know about this and then come here and take my valuable grapes so I keep it to myself.

Quest completed

Harvest

baroness

Well, now that you already know about it, I’ll help you. You’ve been so helpful around here. If you can help me with today’s grape harvest you can take some of them and make dye. Pick grapes from the vines on the right and left side of the parkway, which is the entrance to the vineyard.

Objectives: Harvest grapes at the vineyard. Look for grapes on the vines to the right and left side of the parkway which leads to the main building of the estate.

Quest completed

Purple Dye is Ready

baroness

There, Rita, the purple color is ready now. It’s as good as it can be when made from my grapes. I suggest you ride to the tailor and give him the dye, I’m sure he’ll be impressed. And ask him not to tell anyone else that you can make dye from my grapes.

Objectives: Ride to the tailor in Silverglade Village and give him the purple dye.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 90 XP

Rita, you’re back! Oh, so it’s true that she dyes her fabric with grapes! Such a beautiful tint. This will be great. I promise not to tell anyone else that you can make dye from her grapes.

Rita, I have all the colors I need now! You’ve done excellent work, the colors are all so pretty. I’ll start making your vest now!

Quest completed

Return to Donald tomorrow.

Oh Yes, Silverglade Village Too!

tan

I’ve been thinking some more and I remembered that I was in the Silverglade Village. Could you help me look there? It would be really kind! I was at the post office to pick up a package, after that I talked to the vet and finally I filled up some water from the well inside the village.

Objectives: Ride to Silverglade Village and look for Tan’s money at the post office, the vet’s house and by the well. When it’s done, return to Tan.

Buzzy Trouble at Mrs Holdsworth’s

Mrs Holdsworth’s Plan

mrs_holdsworth

I have a wonderful idea for how to solve this. But I need your young strong arms to be able to do it.Can you help me build a beehive? That will not only take them away from my garden, I will also get honeyfor my tea. I have already prepared wood for the construction so maybe you can be an angel and build it for me. Here is a hammer.

Objectives: Build the beehives with the hammer.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 15 with Moorland Stable

The pile of wood is across the walkway from the picnic table. You have to be dismounted to use the hammer. When you’re finished, speak with Mrs Holdsworth.

mrs_holdsworth

What an amazing job, dear child! Now we have to hope that the bees want to move in. I assume we have to give them one day. I will put some sugar there so they will get curious and hopefully move in.

Quest completed

Return to Mrs Holdsworth tomorrow.
