Tai Nurwin needs several exotic spices and ingredients to create delicacies for some sort of celebration. He seems so stressed that I offered to help him by getting the items he needs.
Stage 1
Some of these items are so exotic, I'm not sure I'll be able to find them locally. Then again, I'm a provisioner! I'm used to improvising. Let's see what I can scrounge up around the village and then "doctor" it up.
Start: | These must be the eggs of a rare salamander. I'm sure I can make do with regular fresh water salamander eggs. |
---|
Complete: | I've found a supply of salamander eggs. |
---|
Start: | I need to find some vegetable-based fabric dye to disguise the salamander eggs. Tai has probably never seen the 'rare' Maraian salamander's eggs anyway. |
---|
Complete: | I've found some dye and changed the color of the common salamander eggs. |
---|
Start: | I'm not sure what pickled pomegranate seeds are, but I am certain I'll find a container of pickles someplace in Shin. I'll be able to 'recreate' this delicacy somehow using pickles. |
---|
Complete: | I've found some pickles. |
---|
Start: | Pomegranate seeds might be difficult to locate, but I'll bet there's a container of dried fruit. Once I mix it with the pickles, who will know whether or not there's any pomegranate seeds in the mix? |
---|
Complete: | I've found some dried fruit and concocted a 'pomegranate' pickle mix. |
---|
Start: | Uruvanian black ant legs...from Ro?! Who can tell where an ant actually came from? I'll bet there are black ants in Shin -- possibly near the kitchen area off the Courtyard. |
---|
Complete: | I've found some black ants. |
---|
Start: | The Uruvanian ant legs are black, but these kitchen ants' legs are red. With some black ink, I could color them successfully. Better find me a container of ink! |
---|
Complete: | I've used the squids' ink to color the little ant legs black. |
---|
I gathered all the items Tai Nurwin requires. Well, sort of.Stage 2
I need to return to Tai Nurwin with these items.
Start: | Hopefully, Tai Nurwin won't notice anything peculiar with the exotic ingredients he requested for the feast he's preparing. |
---|
Complete: | I gave the ingredients to Tai Nurwin. |
---|
I gave Tai Nurwin the items for his feast. While I couldn't find everything Tai requested, exactly, I managed to improvise some of the items so that there'd be enough to go around.
