The 23 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Daimya Hikomi

   Dialogue[22,-29] · Daimya Hikomi

   The quest starts right after the previous one, once the Wood Claw has been collected. For the next claw, Daimya Hikomi sends you to Terrdala, the domain of the Roc Spirit: the Pandawa forge tankards that prevent hangovers, but their deliveries are seriously late.

   

2. 2Talk to Anatakwa in the forge

   Dialogue[24,-22] · Anatakwa

   Enter the forge and talk to Anatakwa. Her ore supplier is running late himself. Offer her something to work with: she refuses, because she needs Terrdala ore, the best there is.

   Dialogue

   1. “Say that you come on behalf of the Daimya”

   

3. 3Talk to Mira Hagata

   Dialogue[24,-22] · Mira Hagata

   Leave the workshop and talk to Mira Hagata. The Tanukis steal the harvested ore to put it back in front of the vein: according to them, mining damages the great painting of the Roc Spirit. The miners used to quietly retrieve it at night, but for the past few days it has been disappearing before they come by.

4. 4Question the Tanukis

   Dialogue

   Question two Tanukis to trace the thieves.

   • [24,-24] Tanuha Ping: it's not theft to him. It's the Kaskouïs, elite artists, who put the ore back in its place.
   • [26,-25] Tanutoki doesn't personally know any Kaskouï, but a certain Tanukas Trates is said to be one, with a bad temper.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask it questions about the ore stolen from the Pandawa”

   

   

5. 5Anger Tanukas Trates

   [24,-23] · Tanukas Trates

   He is criticizing an artwork. Pretend to agree with him, then apologize: he looks down on you. You have to push him until he gets angry: without knowing it, you utter a code specific to the Kizmias, and he thinks you were chosen by Tanukouï San. He advises you to go see him.

   

6. 6Defeat Tanukouï San

   Combat[26,-24]

   Go to the Tanukouï San's Workshop dungeon, whose entrance is at [26,-24], and defeat Tanukouï San in a single fight.

7. 7Talk to Tanukouï San

   Dialogue[26,-24] · Tanukouï San

   After the fight, talk to the boss. He denies the thefts and considers the Pandawa incapable of reading a geoglyph code: that is how he gives his orders to the Kaskouïs.

   Dialogue

   1. “Tell him about the Kizmias and the ore thefts committed against the Pandawa”

8. 8Talk to Tanukai Kiyay

   Dialogue[23,-26] · Tanukai Kiyay

   Leave the dungeon and ask him for information about the geoglyph code. He is in pain and will only talk once relieved by a Balloch Balm. He gives you the recipe: check it in your quest inventory.

    Craft the balm in an alchemist workshop, with the alchemist profession at level 1 or higher. Recipe: 1 Rice Oil, 3 Magic Tanuki Hairs, 1 Alcool à 99% and 2 Rock Dust.

    [23,-26] · Tanukai Kiyay

    Give him the balm. Relieved, he lets slip that he draws the new geoglyphs that give the Kaskouïs their instructions. He can't teach them to you, but a Pandawa wrote a book about it.

12. 12Buy the geoglyph book

    Items[21,-27] · Dick Kerboo Brandtawa

    • Geoglyphs for Ninniesreceived

    

13. 13Decipher the geoglyphs

    Click the circle drawn on the ground at each geoglyph, in this order. The message announces meetings tonight in front of ore veins, to pray to the Roc Spirit.

    • [24,-27] first geoglyph
    • [24,-22] second geoglyph
    • [24,-25] last geoglyph

    The circle is hard to click: aim carefully at the circle, and use highlighting to help (shortcut “y”).

    

    

14. 14Attack the first meeting

    Combat[27,-28] · In-Service Kizmias

    Talk to the In-Service Kizmias, who is urging the Roc Spirit to take back the iron mined by the Pandawa. He refuses to give the ore back: a fight starts, and you can do it with a group.

16. 16Catch the last meeting by surprise

    [25,-22]

    The last location is in the last room of the mine. Listen to Tanuwang Yuanzhong, then Whaska, then Tanuwang Yuanzhong again, before stopping them from leaving. The Roc Spirit commissioned a replica of himself in precious alloy; since the Kaskouïs forbade them from seeing each other, they stole tools and ore.

    

17. 17Defeat Tanuki Bonurki

    Combat[26,-27] · Tanuki Bonurki

    Tanuwang's master refuses to lend his tools to the Pandawa: if the Roc Spirit supported them, they would have the strength to defeat him. Defeat him yourself; the fight is solo. Talk to him again afterward: he grudgingly agrees to let Whaska use his workshop.

    • Tanuki Bonurkifight · level 130 · 3,500 HP · 10 AP · 4 MP

    

18. 18Talk to Tanuwang Yuanzhong

    Dialogue[26,-27] · Tanuwang Yuanzhong

    He thanks you: the Roc Spirit will soon come to the art exhibition at Market Square. While they work, he asks you to reserve an exhibition booth there.

19. 19Reserve the exhibition booth

    Dialogue[25,-26] · Tanugui Met

    The desired booth is already taken, but Tanugui Met is open to an arrangement. Three choices are available: the quick solution costs 5,000 kamas, “Go for the peaceful solution and try to find a compromise” 7,500 kamas, “Go for the forceful solution and try to reserve the booth by force” 10,000 kamas.

    Dialogue

    1. “Go for the quick solution and offer 5000 kamas”

20. 20Assemble the statue

    Dialogue[26,-27] · Tanuwang Yuanzhong

    Dialogue

    1. “Wait without moving”
    2. “Feel your arms start to go numb but don't move”
    3. “Rotate the base to the left”
    4. “Grab the blue metal bar and swiftly drive it into the block held in place by the two apprentices”

21. 21Meet the Roc Spirit

    Dialogue[25,-26] · Rock Spirit
