A Finished Trap

nice_pi

Hello Rita! Now I’ve spent the whole night magicking the scuba tank and the vacuum into a Shadow Seeker trap you brought me.

Look at my masterwork!

I have used the strongest magic on this… So now you have the strongest possible Shadow Seeker trap that you can use to capture and hold an entire Shadow Seeker army.

The only thing left to do is connect the vacuum and the scuba tank. As the person who is going to use it, you should connect the two. Like this… Pretty easy.

Objectives: Connect the vacuum and the scuba tank.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

And presto! A Shadow Seeker trap!

nice_pi

Good. WAIT… One more little spell here. Just to be on the safe side.

Hocus Pocus! Abracadabra! Piff and poof!

There! Now it is perfect!

Quest completed

______________

Catch a Shadow Seeker

nice_pi

There we go Rita. Now we are ready. Now we need to see if it works. I call it “Pi’s Amazing Shadow Sucker.”

Put the Shadow Sucker on the ground and wait for a Shadow Seeker to fly over the trap. If you have done everything right it should make a loud “BANG” noise and the Seeker should be trapped before it knows what is happening. Bang! Bang! Bang! Hah!

Catch a Shadow Seeker and then come back to me. BANG! Haha!

Objectives: Place the Shadow Sucker on the ground and catch a Shadow Seeker. Pickup the trap when you have caught one and take it to Pi.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 10 with The Goldenleaves

Go into the valley and place the trap on the ground. Wait a few seconds for the Shadow Seeker to be captured, then pick up the trap and return to Pi.

nice_pi

Wow… It sounds angry. I hope my spells hold.

Quest completed

______________

Captured Shadows Don’t Make Anyone Happy

nice_pi

Aha Rita. What should we do with this awful Shadow Seeker we have caught in our amazing trap? We can’t really let him sit in that scuba tank forever… Not even this little thing deserves that.

The Druids? Are you sure about that? I’m not exactly great friends with them at the moment…

You can do it? Okay. Ask someone there about what we should do with this little shadow monster. Be sure to take the whole trap with you there.

Objectives: Speak with one of the wise druids in Valedale about what to do with the trapped Shadow Seeker in the scuba tank.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with Keepers of Aideen

Avalon is wise, and he’s a druid. Maybe he can help.

Welcome Rita. You want to show me something?

faceless_druid

A Shadow Seeker in a tank? Very interesting concept, Rita.

Quest completed

Return to Avalon tomorrow.

We haven’t seen our smuggler buddies in a while. Let’s go see what they are up to.

After a Night of Smuggling

smuggler_rob

Stomach growling… Rob hungry. Need to eat cake.

Bob?

Objectives: Speak with Bob.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with The Goldenleaves

Bob is outside the cave in the little rowboat.

smuggler_bob

Filthy landlubbers! Hello Rita! Great to see you! Rob just ran off and forgot to tie up the boat, so I can’t get off the boat.

Quest completed

______________

Mooring the Boat

smuggler_bob

Here, take the rope.

Nice catch!

Tie it around that stump there Rita, so the boat doesn’t float away. Hurry up, I’ve been out smuggling all night so I am really, really hungry. I need to get off this ship quick so Rob doesn’t have the time to eat everything we have before I manage to get anything for myself.

Objectives: Tie the rope to the stump.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with The Goldenleaves

Tie the rope to the stump so Bob can disembark….

…Into the water.

smuggler_bob

Sigh…

This is typical…

It isn’t your fault Rita, it is this cursed wooden leg that I’ve never really been able to balance well on.

Quest completed

______________

No Current

smuggler_bob

Rita, can you help me up? Good, just reach out your hand…

Wait… The current has got me… I can’t swim against the current with this wooden leg… HEEELLLPPP!

I’m being washed out to sea! ROB! HELP ME!

Objectives: Tell Rob what has happened.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with The Goldenleaves

Go and tell Rob the bad news.

smuggler_rob

Mmmm… Good.

Good… Good cake.

Rob likes cake.

Quest completed

______________

Rob Find Bob

smuggler_rob

Bob in the water? 

Floated away like a little cork?

Rob not eat cake now! Dumb cake!

Rob find Bob! Where is Bob?

Objectives: Look for Bob out by the Labyrinth Coast.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 25 with The Goldenleaves

More like, Rita find Bob…

smuggler_bob

-Wheeze- Rita, the current was trying to drag me out to sea but I managed to use my last strength to swim here.

Gasp… I am completely exhausted.

Quest completed

______________

The Ugliest of Fish

smuggler_bob

Thank you, just give me your hand here. It is going to be so nice to be up on dry land again! I’m going to sit by my fire in the smuggler cave and warm up and drink tea… For at least a week! I hope Rob didn’t mange to eat up all the cake.

Hehe.

HA HA HA! Stop tickling, Rita!

What? That isn’t you? 

HELP! SHARK! There is a shark, Rita! Help! It is biting my wooden leg! OH NO! IT IS PULLING ME OUT TO SEA!! SAVE ME!

Objectives: Find Bob who floated away from the fishing village.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 25 with The Goldenleaves

Bob is on the little dock across from the village boardwalk. Watch out for the shark!

smuggler_bob

I managed to hide over here under this little dock, but the shark won’t go away! Help me, quick!

Quest completed

______________

A New Way to Fish

smuggler_bob

Help me Rita!

The shark is going to figure out that leg is wood soon, Rita!

Here, catch, Rita! Hit the shark on the nose with my wooden leg! Use it like a club! The worst thing for a shark is to be hit on the nose!

Here he comes again!! SAVE ME!!

Objectives: Hit the shark on the nose with Bob’s wooden leg.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 25 with The Goldenleaves

Gee, now animal abuse. What next? Spying on people’s personal information for the government? Oh wait…

Have the peg leg ready and wait for the shark to swim past. Hit it on the nose a couple of times until it swims away, then see if Bob is okay.

smuggler_bob

Whew…

You did it Rita! The shark is swimming back out to sea with a red nose! It feels so wonderful to be back on dry land again!

Quest completed

______________

A Car in Goldenhills Valley?

smuggler_bob

Oh… It is going to be so nice to be up on dry land again… FINALLY!

Wait…

Do you hear that Rita… It sounds like a little car or something… Hmmm… There are no cars here in Goldenhills Valley…

Oh no!! NOT AGAIN!!

Objectives: Find Captain Brus and ask him where Bob has gone.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 25 with The Goldenleaves

Now look what you did…

Speak with Captain Brus along Longbridge.

captain_brus

Smuggler? Bah, that is the worst thing ever!

Quest completed

______________

No Stowaways, Thank You

captain_brus

Smuggler Bob? Yes, he tried to sneak on to my boat a little while ago, but I wasn’t having any of that! I smacked him with a boat hook until he let go. “HELP HELP” he kept saying. Ha! Like I was falling for that one! I know how that would have ended up! No stowaways on my boat!

He wanted help? Bah! I’ll believe that when shrimps grow wings! Keep away fro those rotten smugglers, Rita!

Yes, yes… If you really have to know he swam away towards Goldenleaf Stables island. You could look along the beaches there for that old, stinky walrus.

Objectives: Keep looking for Bob. He has to be somewhere along the cost of Goldenleaf Stables island.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with The Goldenleaves

Bob can be found near the little dock on the west side of the island.

smuggler_bob

Oh, wonderful! Excellent! Finally!

Here I am with one foot, and one wooden leg, on dry land again! Thank you Rita!

Rob.. You are also here… You better not have eaten up all the cake… The only thing I want to do now is sit and drink tea and eat cake.

Quest completed

______________

Smuggler on Goldenleaf Beach

smuggler_rob

Bob! Rob happy! Rob very happy!

Objectives: Speak with Bob

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 25 with The Goldenleaves

Tell Bob how happy Rob is to see him.

smuggler_bob

Rob, you dummy! If it hadn’t been for Rita, I might have been eaten up by that shark!

But I forgive you. Just don’t let your stomach control you in the future.

Now, let’s go back to our smuggler cave and play games, drink tea, and eat some cake. No more adventures for me!

Quest completed

This really isn’t my day…

Quest completed

______________

Shark or Octopus?

smuggler_bob

Sigh… What is going to happen this time?

COME GET ME! GIVE ME YOUR WORST!

No sharks?

No octopus?

No wicked currents?

Aha… A common underwater current that is taking me out again… It could have been worse, Rita. This feels almost like a vacation.

We’ll see you soon again if you have time to come rescue me one more time.

Objectives: Speak with Rob.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 5 with The Goldenleaves

Just be glad it wasn’t a sharktopus. Or the Loch Ness monster…
