Xin-xu Augren has heard stories of a legendary paper is cream-colored and thinner than an onion's skin held to the light. I've never seen such such a thing, but Xin-xu's nephew, Ghil Ventur, is in Antonica searching for it. While she hasn't said so directly, I sense that Mrs. Augren is concerned about her nephew as much as she is wondering about the paper. The next time that I travel to Antonica, I will need to locate him.
Stage 1
There is likely no reason for me to rush back to Antonica, however I will need to remember to locate Ghil Ventur the next time I am there. I'll check near the Coldwind Lighthouse area as it seems to get a lot of traffic.
| Start: | I need to speak with Ghil Ventur in Antonica. |
|---|
| Complete: | I spoke with Ghil Ventur. |
|---|
Stage 2
Ghil Ventur gave me the recipe for a paper that apparently is similar to the one Xin-xu is seeking. Oddly enough, there are only two ingredients on the list and both are available on Mara Island.
| Start: | Before I speak with Spark Augren, I'll need to carefully gather some bark from a mulberry bush. There are several around the Village of Shin. |
|---|
| Complete: | I've gathered some mulberry bark. |
|---|
| Start: | The paper recipe calls for starch as a strengthening agent. Ghil's notes say that I should be able to obtain a couple of tubers from the Nurwin's storage shed beside the fields. |
|---|
| Complete: | I've obtained some tubers for starch. |
|---|
| Start: | Spark Augren should be able to create the paper with these simple ingredients. I hope Ghil's faith in his cousin is justified! |
|---|
| Complete: | I received the paper from Spark. |
|---|
Stage 3
Xin-xu will be pleased to know that her nephew Ghil is safe. She'll also appreciate this gift of handcrafted paper.
| Start: | Xin-xu Augren is in the House of Augren in the Village of Shin. |
|---|
| Complete: | I spoke with Xin-xu Augren. |
