As you ride through New Hillcrest, a young woman stops and asks for your help.

Robbed and Abandoned in Mirror Marshes!

frida_greenhill

Please! Wait!

Please could you help me find my friend Isabel? She was in Crescent Moon Village to pick up a delivery of Jorvikroot and she should’ve been back yesterday.

I’ve been looking for her like crazy but she could be anywhere along the way and the area is so big that I just cannot cover it all by myself.

Please, please would you consider helping me find her?

That’s so kind of you, thank you so much! I really do need all the help I can get!

Ever since the bridge to Old Ridgecaster broke, we’ve always taken the route through the Mirror Marshes to get to Crescent Moon Village. If you look down in the Mirror Marshes, I’ll carry on looking up here around New Hillcrest.

Objectives: Look for Isabel in the Mirror Marshes down below New Hillcrest.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Follow the road through the marsh until you find a toppled over wagon with a woman stuck underneath.

Dismount your horse and right the cart to free Isabel. Remember, lift with your knees!

OWW! My whole body hurts.

What luck that you found me. I don’t know how much longer I could’ve coped with the pain under there.

Thanks for helping…

Quest completed

______________

Bring Isabel to New Hillcrest

isabel_stonefield

Ouch, ouch, ouch! Owww!

You really did just save my life. How can I ever thank you?

Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Isabel and I live up in New Hillcrest.

Hmm…

How I got here?

Where’s Atlas?! My poor horse!

And where’s all my Jorvikroot that was in the cart?!

Wait a second! Now my memory is coming back a little…

We came from Crescent Moon Village which is where I usually sell the clothes I make by hand. While we’re there, I usually shop around for food and other bits and pieces that you can’t get up in New Hillcrest. This time I got hold of loads of Jorvikroot which is usually unbelievably hard to find. I bought all they had, then we rode through the Mirror Marshes on the way home…

The mist was so thick that morning that we couldn’t even see that a woman suddenly jumped out in front of us. Atlas was scared and he broke off from the cart, causing me to go flying but somehow getting stuck by my sweater to the side. Then the cart tipped over me and I saw the woman getting away with my valuable Jorvikroot.

Ouch, my back is killing me…

I suppose I can fix up the cart and everything another time, because now I just want to get home. How am I going to do that without Atlas?

You’ll take me home?

That’s so kind! I live in a row of houses up in New Hillcrest.

Objectives: Take Isabel home to New Hillcrest.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Get back on your horse and ride to Isabel’s house in New Hillcrest.

isabel_stonefield

Thanks for all your help. It sure feels nice to be home again.

Isabel’s Missing Horse

isabel_stonefield

I wonder where Atlas has got to now…

My lovely horse…

He ran away when that woman frightened him. She came from absolutely nowhere and Atlas is easily spooked when something unexpected happens. I should go out looking for him but I can’t when I’m in this amount of pain…

Would you maybe consider going to look for Atlas? You’re so very thoughtful, thank you!

I really hope you find him. He’s the apple of my eye! There’s a chance he ran home to his stable just outside New Hillcrest. Maybe you could ask Nathalie if she’s seen Atlas?

Objectives: Ask Nathalie Moonriver at the New Hillcrest stables if she happens to know where Atlas is.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Maybe she has seen the poor horse?

nathalie_moonriver

Hey Rita!

Yeah, I’ve seen Atlas!

Quest completed

______________

Searching for Atlas

nathalie_moonriver

I was up in the main square in New Hillcrest to buy some breakfast when Atlas came racing past, quick as a flash. I tried to ride after him to catch up but he was too fast. 

He looked completely terrified. He ran towards the bridge to Old Ridgecaster. If you ride out that way, you might find him.

Objectives: Look for Isabel’s horse in Old Ridgecaster.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 20 with Crescent Moon Village

Ride up to Old Ridgecaster bridge and you’ll find that Scott Buttergood has gotten hold of Atlas.

scott_buttergood

Hey Rita.

I haven’t got time right now.

I’m busy.

______________

Scott Buttergood and Isabel’s Horse

scott_buttergood

What? You’ve got something to do with that idiot horse?

That maniac horse came racing like a mad thing towards the bridge and of course I tried to stop it. I couldn’t get any contact with it until it was too late. He took a huge leap over the gap in the bridge but missed the landing and crashed straight through the planks he landed on. The only thing stopping him from falling down into the abyss was his saddle and his head which both got stuck in the bridge.

It took four men to get that dumb beast back up on the road again.

Now I’m a good few days behind on my work because of that darned horse.

What? You seriously mean I should just hand the horse over without a word?

No chance!

I hear what you’re saying, of course I understand that it’s somebody else’s horse, but if she wants it back, she can compensate me for the damage it’s caused. Until then, I’ll be keeping him here.

You’re wondering if there’s anything you can do to get the horse back?

Maybe. I’ll think about it for a while, but in the meantime you can fetch my tools. I need them to put all this mess right again. They’re in front of the house down there, the one on the left on the other side of the bridge. 

Objectives: Find Scott’s tools that he needs to repairing the bridge. They’re outside the house a short trot away from where Scott is standing.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with Crescent Moon Village

The house is on the lower terrace from the bridge. Go down towards Crescent Moon Village, then turn left to find the house at the end of the short trail. Return to Scott with his tool box.

scott_buttergood

Good job on finding them.

Quest completed

______________

Beat Scott in the Race!

scott_buttergood

Great that you came with the tools. Now I can repair the damage that horse did.

I’ve thought a little about what you could do to get that horse back for when you leave here, and there’s only one way to resolve this…

The same way all us Buttergoods solve our issues when we argue…

We compete for it.

You need to beat me in a race to get the horse back. If you lose, I keep him.

Challenge accepted?

Right then. Let’s go!

Objectives: Get Scott to give back Isabel’s horse by beating him in a race.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP, 80 Horse XP

Reputation: 15 with Crescent Moon Village

This race may be difficult to complete on the first try. Scott is pretty fast but he doesn’t jump, so get ahead of him by jumping over the hay bale obstacles.

scott_buttergood

You won but don’t think it’s because you’re better than I am!

I’m a man of my word, so here’s your friend’s horse back. Now get out of here!

Thank you Rita! You found Atlas! I started to wonder whether I’d ever see him again. I’m so eternally grateful! Thank you!

Take this dress as a thank you for helping. It’s one of the very finest dresses in my collection. It’s the least I can do since you came back with the apple of my eye!

Who Stole Isabel’s Jorvikroot

isabel_stonefield

Ouch! My back is so sore!

Who was that woman who stole all my expensive Jorvikroot?

I remember how she stared me right in the eyes while I was laying helpless under the cart.

She had a real sadness in her eyes…

It felt like I knew her…

Now I know who it is!

It’s the baker’s daughter from here in New Hillcrest! I know her name is Lisa and we don’t know each other well, but why would she do something so horrible to me?

Oh I don’t know, I can’t deal with this. I can’t confront her right now in any case. There’s too much going on all at once.

You say you’ll confront her about it, Rita?

Thanks ever so much! She lives in a pretty big house out towards the edge of town, next to the square.

Good luck! Come back and let me know how it went…

Objectives: Try to discover who’s responsible for stealing the Jorvikroot in New Hillcrest.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 20 with New Hillcrest

Lisa’s house is the last on the right before you go down the hill to the stable. She can be found near the back door behind the house.

lisa_rockwell

Who are you?

Quest completed

______________

Why Steal Jorvikroot?

lisa_rockwell

Yes, I’m the baker’s daughter. Lisa is my name.

How can I help you?

What?

How can you be sure it was me who scared Isabel in the Mirror Marshes?

She recognized me?

Oh no, what have I done?!

It really wasn’t my intention to hurt her. Is she okay?

No, I really can’t give back the Jorvikroot… It’s to do with my husband Thomas and his life. I’ll explain.

A few weeks ago, Thomas was off on a business trip somewhere past Cauldron Swamp through the Iron Gate, to deliver exotic herbs to Pi the witch. On his way out of there, he fell into the swamp, which is where Pi the witch dumps all her poisonous, toxic waste without a second thought for the environment or the swamp’s animal life. Now Thomas has all that poison in his body!

Objectives: Find out why Lisa stole the Jorvikroot from Isabel.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Interesting, interesting…

lisa_rockwell

I really need to help my husband, otherwise I’ll lose him forever.

Quest completed

______________

Thomas’ Destiny

lisa_rockwell

No, please! Listen!

I need to keep the Jorvikroot because it’s the only cure for the poison that’s making Thomas so sick. His life is in the balance here, you have to believe me…

If he doesn’t eat the Jorvikroot, the poisons will take over his entire body. It’ll turn him into a man with no soul, an empty being that you can’t get close to. Not even me or our son Edward.

I’ve tried giving him the Jorvikroot but the poison has already started to take over and stop him from eating the cure. I don’t know what I’m going to do…

Sniffle…

Thomas won’t dare to even be around anyone other than me anymore. He’s afraid that he’ll hurt someone or injure them because he doesn’t recognize his own feelings anymore. He’s even told me to keep Edward away.

Sniffle… Sniff…

He comes here every night, so I can see how the poison is slowly changing his appearance. His cheeks have become hollow and his skin is so pale.

One night, I was brave enough to kiss him goodbye. He kissed me back and since then we’ve always parted with a goodbye kiss. For that one moment at least, we’re happy.

Objectives: Listen to Lisa as she tells you the awful story of her husband.

That’s a sad story, but did you really have to steal?

What am I going to do?

______________

A Horse in Need of Care

lisa_rockwell

I know I’ve done wrong but how can I make everything right again?

All of this has made me so unbelievably tired that I don’t have the energy to take care of anything else right now. Least of all the things Thomas used to do at home when he was healthy.

But, Rocky…

How can I have been so stupid as to forget Rocky?!

Rocky is Thomas’ horse and best friend. Rocky’s more like a member of the family than a horse for Thomas. He needs to be taken care of right away.

How could I forget?

What? You’d take care of Rocky for me Rita? Really?

That’s the nicest thing anybody’s done for me in a long time, thank you so much.

My best friend Nathalie is down at the New Hillcrest stables and she’ll show you where Rocky is.

It’s fine if you want to tell Nathalie what’s happened to Thomas.

Objectives: Ride down to the stable in New Hillcrest and talk to Nathalie. She can tell you which horse belongs to Thomas.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Taking Care of Rocky

nathalie_moonriver

What is it you’re even saying?

Thomas has been poisoned? How serious is it?

Oh no! Now I understand why Lisa hasn’t been answering my messages.

Poor Lisa…

…

Where Rocky is?

I’ve given him food so that he doesn’t go hungry, but I’m more worried about how he’s feeling in his mind. He’s a horse who really loves company and loves being made a fuss of, but I just haven’t had time to give him that kind of attention. I have too many other horses to look after.

Maybe that’s why he’s been so worried and restless at night. He’s been whinnying a lot at night but most of the time it calms down after a little while so I haven’t been worried until now.

It’s really nice of you to come down and give him a little love. Here’s Thomas’ brush that you can groom Rocky with.

Rocky’s in the pasture behind the stable.

Objectives: Groom Rocky, who you’ll find in the pasture behind the stables.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

______________

Spoiling Rocky

nathalie_moonriver

Rocky loves being groomed.

You could always really see how much he enjoyed it when Thomas was brushing him.

Oh, if only we could find a way to help Thomas…

…

I’m sure Rocky would like to have his hooves cleaned out, since you’re already here looking after him, I mean… Here’s Thomas’ hoof pick.

Objectives: Go to the pasture behind the stable and clean Rocky’s hooves.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 20 with New Hillcrest

Return to Rocky and pamper him some good hoof cleaning.

rocky

Rocky’s Okay

nathalie_moonriver

You’ve really got a good way with horses. I saw how much he was enjoying all your attention.

Lisa will probably want to know that Rocky’s okay. Go to her house up in New Hillcrest and let her know.

Objectives: Tell Lisa that Rocky’s doing just fine.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Find Lisa behind her house and tell not to worry about Rocky.

lisa_rockwell

Is Rocky alright?

Quest completed

______________

Why Did Thomas Drink the Water?

lisa_rockwell

Thank you Rita for taking care of Rocky.

I can’t actually believe I forgot about him like that.

Sometimes I get the feeling that Thomas has been to see Rocky before he comes home in the evenings because I can smell the stables on him…

I miss the old Thomas so much, we had so much fun together…

Sniffle…

If only we wasn’t tricked into that swamp!

Yeah, it’s not his fault he is how he is. It was one of those evil little Will-o-the-wisps that cast a spell on him and dragged him down into the swamp.

Your parents must’ve read you the tales of Will-o-the-wisp’s spells and curses when you were little?

They didn’t?

My parents did but I never believed the stories were true. Until now.

The tales tell of how people become hypnotized by little lights on the water and then are tricked into heading down into the swamps and bogs. There, they’re kept prisoner against their will for all eternity so that the evil little Will-o-the-wisps can feed off their good-heartedness. Thomas described the hypnosis as though he was sleeping but somehow still aware of everything around him.

Imagine what that must have been like for my poor Thomas to have gone through that for real!

How did he break the spell?

It broke when he was on his way down into the swamp. He slipped on a wet stone that was sticking up through the water and hit his head. In the very same moment, the hypnosis broke so that he gasped and swallowed the toxic water.

What have we done to deserve this?

Objectives: Lisa explains how Thomas came to drink the swamp water.

Rewards: 10 with Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

What a sad tale indeed.

lisa_rockwell

If I only knew where he was during the day so that we could try to fix this together…

Where Did the Family Photo Go?

lisa_rockwell

Bad luck has been after us ever since Thomas was poisoned.

Just a couple of days ago, I noticed that our family portrait has disappeared. I’ve looked all over the whole house, but it’s gone.

Thomas swore that it wasn’t him who took it, so did Edward, and I believe them both.

You can absolutely have a look for it if you want. That photo means everything to me.

Have a look around the house to begin with. Perhaps it’s managed to find it’s way outside somehow?

Objectives: Find the family photo.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

Search around the house and ask Edward if he knows anything about the photo’s whereabouts.

edward_rockwell

My name is Edward and I live here. You are not allowed here in my garden.

I don’t care who you are.

Go now please.

Quest completed

______________

Edward Took It After All!

edward_rockwell

Can’t you just get lost?

I can speak to you however I like, you’re not my dad.

Pff.

Why are you looking for our family photo?

…

Okay, okay, I didn’t know my mother cared so much about that picture.

Why did I take it?

I took it because me and dad always went camping at the place on the picture. We always had so much fun together when we went there.

The bunker on the picture was our secret hideout, and we were the only ones who knew about it. Now he’s gone so I’ll never get to go there with him again.

That’s why I took the stupid photo!

If my mom really wants it back, then I suppose you can give it back to her yourself. I don’t want her to be mad at me.

The photo is in a box in the middle of the sunflower patch on the other side of the house.

Objectives: Look for the family photo and give it back to Lisa who’s waiting at the rear side of her house in New Hillcrest.

______________

A Meaningful Place

lisa_rockwell

Was it Edward who took the picture?

Then that means he lied to me. We taught him better than that!

I understand why he took it though. He doesn’t need to worry that I’ll be angry with him, it’s fine.

What’s happening to his dad is really hitting Edward hard. He seems to have changed…

My little Edward…

The bunker on the picture was a very special place for them both. They’ve had so much fun there. Hey, perhaps you’re right! Maybe Thomas is at the bunker during the day so that he gets to avoid bothering people…

Hmm? You’ll ride to the bunker, Rita? Fantastic! Go as fast as you can and see if he’s there. We need to get him to eat the Jorvikroot.

Take the photo with you and show Thomas what he stands to lose if he doesn’t come back and eat the Jorvikroot.

The bunker is on the Shipwreck Shores, a little bit outside Crescent Moon Village.

Be careful!

And, please hurry…

Objectives: Look for Thomas in the bunker on the Shipwreck Shores, just outside Crescent Moon Village.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Has Lisa sent you here to get me to eat Jorvikroot?

I wish I could but the poison is controlling what I do. I just can’t do it, it won’t let me…

I miss my family.. Not a second goes by when I don’t think of them.

If only I had the courage to see my son again, but I don’t want to let him see me like this.

Grant a Wish for Thomas

poison_zombie_thomas

I can feel the poison making me weaker and weaker every day. Soon enough I won’t even be able to visit Lisa in the evenings.

If only I hadn’t been tricked by that darned Will-o-the-wisp. 

(Thomas’ stomach is growling from hunger.)

If I could maybe just find something to eat. I haven’t had a proper meal in days. 

When Edward and I used to come camping here, we always stopped by my friend Pamela’s place in Crescent Moon Village. She always used to make us the best meatballs in the whole world. It was Edward’s favorite thing to eat.

Hmm? You’d ride over and get some for me? Oh wow, Rita, that’s so nice! Ride to Crescent Moon Village and ask Pamela if she’d make her old friend a portion of meatballs…

Go now! I don’t think I can control my temper for much longer…

Edward and Thomas always stop by and say hello when they’re camping in this neck of the woods!

Of course I can make some meatballs for Thomas, but I’m all out of onions.

I’ve ordered some from the village greengrocer but I haven’t had time to pick them up yet.

Oh! How lovely of you to offer to pick them up for me, Rita! Ride to the greengrocer which is just a little bit before the water mill you can see from here. They always leave the orders on a bench just outside, so you can easily pick it up whenever you want.

Food to Bring Back Memories

poison_zombie_thomas

FINALLY!

Stay away until I’ve had my food. I need the energy to be able to even try fighting the poison. 

Chompchompchomp…

Wow, this is delicious!

Omnomnomnom…

That hit the spot! Now I feel a little better at least.

…

Edward wouldn’t have wanted to miss this. He always thought it was so exciting to explore all the corridors and rooms of the bunker. We always had a picnic right here and it was always Pamela’s delicious meatballs.

It feels really nice to think about the things Edward and I used to do together. I wonder if I’ll ever get to do any of this with Edward again?

Usually, we’d come camping at this time of year. I promised him we’d do it every year, but it feels like this is the first time I’ll be breaking a promise to him. This has to be really hard for him…

Ouch! Ow ow ow!

…

The poison is trying to tear away my good memories.

Thanks so much for the food, but it’s probably best you go now. Don’t come back.

Aaaaaarrrrggghhhhh…!!

Take care of my family, they’ll need all the help they can get…

GO NOW!!

He’s in the bunker?

He’s feeling so bad that he attacked you?

He’s clearly not told me the whole truth about how bad his condition is. I need to help him get better, but I’ve been looking for Edward. He’s been gone since yesterday. He didn’t say where he was going but his sleeping bag and fishing rod are gone too.

Where could he have gone?

Jorvik’s Leaders in the Resistance

pamela_moonriver

Hello there Rita. I’ve spoken to a few of my contacts, and you seem as though you’re pretty trustworthy, so I’ll help you as much as I can. You want to actually MEET Mrs X if I understood you correctly?

Do you even know who Mrs X is?

Not many people do, but Mrs X is the leader of CHILL. CHILL are Jorvik’s leaders in the resistance against G.E.D. I support them in as many ways as I can, but they’re incredibly secretive, so my contributions to their fight are only ever rather small. Whenever they need my help, I always step up.

I’ve only ever met Mrs X once before, and we only exchanged a few words. She knocked on my door in the middle of the night one time… She was being chased by G.E.D.’s guards and she needed somewhere to lay low. I offered her a bed and didn’t ask questions. When I woke up the next morning, she was on her way out of my front door. She told me that if I ever I needed CHILL’s help anytime that I should go to New Hillcrest and ask for…

Wait. What was that? Did you hear that? Someone’s coming…

Ugh, dash it! It’s Junior Buttergood. Not a single word to him about Mrs X or CHILL, Rita. Not a peep!

Hrmm.

Morning Junior! How lovely you’ve dropped by! This is my friend Rita, have you two met before?

Objectives: Talk to Junior Buttergood.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP

Reputation: 10 with Crescent Moon Village

In stomps Mr Grumpypants, hello to you too.

junior_buttergood

Rita?! What kind of name is that?!

Listen Rita, we don’t much like outsiders here in Epona, so I reckon you’d better buzz off back to wherever you came from. And be quick about it!

Snort!

Pamela, where’s my honey? If I don’t get it today, then I’m not going to make your life easy.

The Best Honey in Epona

junior_buttergood

Now, Pamela. The honey. Where is it?!

You know fine well that the only thing that makes my daddy happy is to drink tea with your honey stirred in. Your honey is the best in all Epona, and that’s the only reason I buy it from you.

That said, if you can’t deliver the honey, then I just won’t buy it from you anymore, I’ll take my money elsewhere. It doesn’t matter what daddy says, I say you’ve got to shape up and get me my honey.

I’ll expect a delivery of honey to Butter Hill today.

Snort.

Objectives: Talk to Pamela Moonriver.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP

Reputation: 10 with Crescent Moon Village

Well then, entitled bastard much, are we?

pamela_moonriver

Sigh.

That was Junior Buttergood, the head of the Buttergood family. An absolute cretin, but he’s the most powerful man in the region and he knows how to throw his weight around.

Everyone around here is scared of him, even me. He’s best buddies with all those G.E.D. types as well.

Ah well, I make my honey to make people happy, and if it can give someone a tiny bit of extra joy, then I guess I’ve done a good thing. Even if that person is Valdemar Buttergood. 

Who’s Valdemar? He’s the eldest of the Buttergoods, he must be over a hundred now… A more evil soul you couldn’t hope to find, but since he suffered a stroke ten years ago, Junior’s been running the family. It might be hard to believe, but compared to Valdemar, Junior’s a real little ray of sunshine.

Good People in a Bad Family

pamela_moonriver

Rita, might you be able to help me get some honey to Junior Buttergood? I think we can use this delivery as an opportunity to get closer to Mrs X.

Let me explain.

A lot of the Buttergood family are absolutely wretched, I mean you’ve met Junior, but honestly… In comparison to the rest of his family, he’s an absolute angel. Luckily there are some good people in that bad family. Robert Buttergood is one of the best people I’ve ever met. Decent and respectable, friendly, brave, and a member of CHILL.

Exactly! Junior’s little brother is on our side. Just think if Junior found out, Rita, he’d be pretty surprised to say the least! Haha!

But of course it’s a secret. You mustn’t tell a soul, you understand that, right? Good!

You need to talk to Robert Buttergood. It was him that Mrs X told me to get in touch with if I ever needed CHILL’s help, so it’ll be perfect if you deliver the honey to Butter Hill.

Get the honey from the beehives and I’ll get some jars together in the meantime.

Objectives: Collect honey from the beehives next to Pamela Moonriver’s house.

Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 15 with Crescent Moon Village

Dismount your horse to use the jar. Return to Pamela when you have collected honey from each of the beehives.

pamela_moonriver

You got some honey, Rita? 

Ah, perfect! The bees didn’t sting you, did they?

Quest completed

______________

A Meeting on Butter Hill

pamela_moonriver

There we are, here are some honey jars. Now you have a good reason to visit Butter Hill, where the whole Buttergood family lives. Do you know Butter Hill, by the way?

You don’t? It’s probably best I tell you a little bit about it before you go.

Here’s how it is: Butter Hill is the actual estate on which the Buttergood family lives. It’s built around the ruins of an ancient fort known as Old Ridgecaster. Nobody knows who built the old fort but from what I’ve heard, the latest theory is that the Romans settled there around two thousand years ago.

The big fort behind Old Ridgecaster? You certainly seem to be interested in history, Rita! I’m not the right person to talk to, really, but you can certainly find someone who knows more about Epona’s history in New Hillcrest. Anyway, I can tell you what little I do know about the fort.

It’s called Fort Maria. It’s quite a lot like Fort Pinta, did you think about that? They were both built at the same time, but Fort Maria’s been closed off to the public for as long as anyone can remember. It’s probably just an old wive’s tale, but apparently nobody who ever made it over the wall has ever come back… Haha! Standard stories that parents tell their children to stop them doing stupid stuff.

Anyway, while I’m telling you about Epona, I might as well tell you about The Great Thunder. It’s a huge ravine right in between Old Ridgecaster and New Hillcrest, that splits Epona in two. The Great Thunder was created when a gunpowder factory in that spot exploded a couple of hundred years ago.

Now I think we’ve had enough history chat, because you’ve got an important task to get done!

Take these jars of honey and give them to Junior up on Butter Hill. He knows where Robert will be, but you have to come up with a crafty reason as to why you’d need to meet him.

Hmm… I have an idea, actually. Tell Junior that I need help to repair one of the beehives. Let him know that there’ll be no more honey until it’s fixed, and he’ll definitely need Robert’s help to do it.

Good luck, and say hello to Robert from me.

Objectives: Take the jars of honey to Junior Buttergood on Butter Hill.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 20 with Crescent Moon Village

Junior can be found angrily pacing in front of the Buttergood mansion, located at the top of Butter Hill.

junior_buttergood

You again? Didn’t I tell you to get lost?

You’ve got daddy’s honey with you? Pamela too afraid to face me, or could she just not be bothered coming up here? Haha, oh well at least I don’t have to look at her which is always something.

Quest completed

______________

Report from The Great Thunder

junior_buttergood

Why are you still here? If you want a tip, you can forget it!

You need to meet my brother Robert? One of Pamela’s beehives is broken and she needs Robert’s help to fix it, you say?

Snort.

Yeah, well, it’s not a big job and daddy certainly needs a steady supply of his honey. You can do me a favor first though, otherwise I shan’t tell you where you’ll find Robert. Ha.

Hehe, you think that the honey is more important than running around on errands for me? Well, yes, you’d be right but I can see that you’re in a hurry and I’ve got time to wait but you don’t, am I right?

So there we go. It’s just a small favor, and it’ll be done in no time on that horse of yours. Hehe.

Ride over to The Great Thunder and see how it’s going with the bridge repairs. My brother Scott is taking care of it, and he should have a report to give me about how it’s progressing. I should’ve had the report this morning, but he hasn’t been here yet. Scott didn’t exactly inherit daddy’s intelligence, so you can ride over there and fetch the report for me. If he hasn’t written it, you can tell him from me that he’ll be sleeping in the tool shed tonight.

Hahaha!

Snort.

Now get going. Now.

Objectives: Ride to The Great Thunder and ask Scott Buttergood for a report for Junior.

Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 25 with Crescent Moon Village

Ride along the road on the hill below the mansion and you will get to a broken bridge (which you can easily jump over to get across to New Hillcrest). Scott can be found supervising work on the bridge, while he walks around like he thinks he’s a badass cowboy but just looks like he might have a wedgie….

scott_buttergood

Uh?

Who are you? This is a forbidden area, don’t you get that?

Quest completed

______________

Bridge-Building Has Its Problems

scott_buttergood

You’d like a report to take to Junior?

Grr… He knows exactly how much trouble I’m having with the bridge. Of course I haven’t had time to write a report for him. Bah!

Do you have any idea how hard it is to build a bridge over The Great Thunder? People have been trying to build something here for generations, but it always collapses…

Why it always collapses? Don’t ask me, it’s probably some kind of werewolf or vampire or other ghoulish goblin that makes all the trouble. 

If there are vampires and werewolves here? Well yeah, of course!

If I’ve ever seen any? Of course not, nobody has. Do you think you’d have read about it in the papers if somebody had? Think about it. Everyone knows there are monsters here in Epona, though. At least the people with half a brain know they exist, but you don’t seem to be one of those kinds of people… Hehe.

Anyway, enough joking, time for you to get started on writing a report for Junior, because I’ve got to get one with building this bridge.

Why should you write the report? Easy. If you want a report to take to Junior then you can write it yourself. I haven’t got time to waste and I’d rather sleep in the tool shed than let Junior boss me around like he does.

Sigh. Right, I’ll help you. You’ll have to excuse me if I sound a bit mean, this is stressful work and it seems Junior’s bad mood is contagious. 

Don’t worry though, this kind of report is easy. Here’s a form you can fill out, it’s already printed out what you should do. Just ride round to the places on the form, and check off whether they look like they’re in good shape or bad shape. Not so advanced.

Come back when you’re done so I can take a look at it before you ride back to Junior.

Objectives: Ride round to the spots around the bridge and fill in the form to say whether it looks good or bad, then return to Scott Buttergood when you’re done.

Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 15 XP

Reputation: 20 with Crescent Moon Village

Inspect the three areas on the bridge to complete your report, then speak to Scott.

scott_buttergood

You’ve written the report? Let me see.

Looks okay. Junior will probably be satisfied.

The Short Straw

scott_buttergood

I suppose I should thank you. What’s your name, by the way?

My name’s Scott Buttergood, it’s nice to meet you Rita. I suppose I can take a little break to chat to you, especially since this job is going to go on forever anyway!

So you’ve had the pleasure of meeting Junior. What do you think of him?

Haha! No need to answer Rita, he’s not very nice, I know.

It runs in the family, sadly. Our dad Valdemar is the least pleasant man you could ever hope to meet. Luckily, we didn’t have to see him much as kids since it was our mother who raised us for the most part. When she died, I thought our family was going to fall apart, but the brothers have kept it all together in spite of everything.

Didn’t our father take over our upbringing, you ask? Haha, no chance. He just expected us to take care of ourselves, he’s only ever been interested in Junior and never had time for me and Robert. Haha, don’t look so sad, it was Junior who drew the short straw; if you want to feel sorry for someone, it should be him.

Meh, enough now with the mushy family stuff, I need to get on with this thankless task. It’s not finished and I can’t guarantee it won’t collapse. But yeah, you get up to whatever you want now. 

Seeya!

Objectives: Ride back to Junior Buttergood with the report from Scott Buttergood.

Rewards: 5 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 25 with Crescent Moon Village

Now Junior can know how the bridge is coming along.

junior_buttergood

You’ve got the report?

Good. I need to be able to light the fire this evening, I’m fresh out of paper.

You think I should read it?

Haha! I’d never read it, I just like bossing Scott around. He needs reminding every now and then that it’s me who’s in charge around here.

A Brother You Can Never Rely On

junior_buttergood

You shouldn’t be hanging around someone like Pamela, she’s bad news, don’t you know. She hasn’t got a clue about the three most important things in life: money, money, and MONEY!

It’s only G.E.D. who’ve got half an idea on this island, but everyone else is gonna see! I’ve got BIG plans!

You’re looking for Robert? My brother Robert? Why would you be looking for that moron? Pamela needs help to repair a beehive? Nah, forget it, listen I don’t like uninvited guests on my land, so GET LOST.

Hmm? I promised to help you if you brought me the report? I promised, did I?

Snort.

I don’t think I promised at all, I’m sure I’d remember. But I feel rather friendly today so I suppose I’ll help. Robert’s down working in the cotton fields.

NOW DISAPPEAR!!

Objectives: Talk to Bobby Buttergood.

Rewards: 25 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Reputation: 10 with Crescent Moon Village

How rude?! He is the one that demanded the honey and wanted the report, how dare he say I was uninvited. Let alone not help me after. Jerk…

Robert can be found by following the road to the bottom of the hill.

robert_buttergood

Hi there, I’m Bobby Buttergood! Who might you be?

Rita, nice to meet you. How can I help?

Pamela said I could help you meet Mrs X?

Umm… That’s not a very small favor! I suppose if you want to meet Mrs X, then you must also want to stop G.E.D. here in the Harvest Counties…

Maybe you could help me with something first if you wouldn’t mind?

Quest completed

______________

A Little Bit of Sabotage in Old Ridgecaster

robert_buttergood

If I’m a member of CHILL? Well yeah, but I’m not in their inner circle. I don’t know anything more than is absolutely necessary about the organization — safety first as Mrs X usually says! I know almost nothing about who else is a member or what plans they might have on the go.

How come I joined CHILL?

Well, Rita, it’s a long story. I can try and give you the short version though, we’ve got time for that…

Behind me is the bridge to Bear Point. The gate on the bridge has been locked up so that you can’t get past it, and as you can see, it’s a wasteland with nothing growing there. The land was destroyed when Junior started drilling for oil there, and then G.E.D. really finished it off when they started looking for… Whatever it is they’re looking for here in the Harvest Counties.

That G.E.D. left Bear Point behind is CHILL’s doing. It’s a really exciting story, but we can go over it another time when we’re not in such a hurry. It was at that time that I realized what G.E.D. and my brother had done to Bear Point and I decided to join CHILL.

Now we’ve got to get to work, Rita. We’re going to start off a little bit of sabotage in Old Ridgecaster. Nothing dangerous, but every little helps when it comes to stopping G.E.D.

They keep a bunch of their materials here on our estate. There’s barrels with dangerous chemicals and a whole range of machinery. Machinery that we’re going to sabotage! Sand in the gas tank — a classic! Haha!

I’ve messed up G.E.D.’s machines before, but JR started suspecting that it was me behind all the broken equipment. He’s had his eye on me for ages now so I never get the chance to sabotage anything. The plan is for me to go up to see Junior so that he sees it can’t be me that breaking the machines while you fill up the gas tanks of every machine you can find with sand. A perfect alibi for me which is definitely going to be a bit of a head-scratcher for Junior. Haha!

If you do this, I’ll tell you how you can get hold of Mrs X.

Objectives: Pour sand into the petrol tanks of G.E.D.’s machines around Old Ridgecaster.

Rewards: 35 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP

Reputation: 40 with Crescent Moon Village

You can find several machines scattered up and down the hill. Dismount your horse and use the sand from your inventory to wreck the machines. When you are finished with your sabotage, return to Robert.

robert_buttergood

Haha! Nice work Rita!

This’ll give G.E.D. something to think about, and Junior’s going to go crazy over how this could’ve happened. It’s probably not the worst thing that’s happened to G.E.D., but every little bit helps.

Quest completed

______________

Epona’s Getting Colder

robert_buttergood

I promised I’d help you find Mrs X, and that’s exactly what I’ll do.

I don’t know who she is, but maybe you already guessed that…? Even if I did know who she is, I probably wouldn’t say anything because — even though you seem trustworthy — Mrs X herself would always say ‘safety first!’…

I can tell you how to get hold of my contact in New Hillcrest, a person who’s very much in the inner circle of CHILL. If anyone can arrange a meeting with Mrs X, it’s this person.

I’m not going to say a word about who it is, you never know who might be listening, but I’ll teach you a secret phrase that I use to be able to find my contact. Talk to the residents of New Hillcrest and say the phrase “Epona’s getting colder.” If someone responds by saying “but it’ll soon be warm again,” you’ll know you’re talking to the right person.

To be able to get to New Hillcrest, you’ll have to ride round The Great Thunder, the ravine that splits Epona in two. You’ll maybe find a spot where you could get over the ravine, but I wouldn’t hold out much hope…

Ride back to Crescent Moon Village, then head east through the Mirror Marshes. Stay on the roads and you’ll eventually find a road that takes you south. Once you’re on that road, it won’t be long until you’re at New Hillcrest.

I’m sure I’ll see you again soon Rita. Good luck!

Objectives: Find Robert Buttergood’s contact in CHILL at New Hillcrest.

Rewards: 40 Jorvik Shillings, 80 XP

Reputation: 10 with New Hillcrest

You can return to Crescent Moon Village and ride through Mirror Marshes. The quicker route is back up Butter Hill and jump over the gap in the broken bridge, the road will take you directly to New Hillcrest.

Enter the old looking town square part of the town, and speak your secret phrase to the citizens until you find someone who replies with the correct response.

Heehee! What do you want anyway?

CHILL can help you save Herman if it’s at all possible, but we need to give it a try. And fast. Before they’ve got time to move him from the area near Old Hillcrest.

La la…

One of my friends — Jupiter Peacebloom — is near Old Hillcrest and keeps an eye on G.E.D. He watches them from a cliff over Stormgarden… Ride to Jupiter and tell him you need his help to free Herman from G.E.D.’s clutches. Dum dee dum…

Greet him with the phrase “seems it’ll be a damp summer” and then tell him that the situation is Code Snowdrop. Hum dee dum…

La la la…

Come back to me when you’ve seen him, since I probably don’t have time to show you the flowers right this minute… Heehee!

Objectives: Ride to the cliff over Stormgarden and talk to Jupiter Peacebloom.

Rewards: 35 Jorvik Shillings, 25 XP

Ride back to Stormgarden, and at the gate between Stormgarden and Crescent Moon Village, turn right and ride up the hill towards the G.E.D. site. Jupiter can be found behind some trees, surveying the site.

jupiter_peacebloom

Seems it’ll be a damp summer…

That means you’re a friend, even if I’ve never seen you before.

What? Code Snowdrop? That means I’ve got to drop whatever I’m doing and help you immediately in every way that I can.

This must be important. What’s happened?
