The 20 quest steps

1. 1Talk to the Hearty Ankamian

   Dialogue[0,0] · Hearty Ankamian

   In the cafeteria of the Ankama offices, the Hearty Ankamian explains that the artists are lacking inspiration. His idea: put items from the World of Twelve in the offices. He gives you a scroll, Origin of the Wishing Well, to use.

   Each crafted item must be placed in a room of the offices. It is better to craft everything before going back so you can place it all at once.
