The 25 quest steps

1. 1Talk to Emmy Nens-Grize

   Dialogue[4,-6] · Emmy Nens-Grize

   Emmy Nens-Grize is in the second room of the Amakna Castle. The kingdom's fields are rotting and farmers are disappearing: she sends you to assist the master of the Sadida temple to preserve the kingdom's food.

   Dialogue

   1. “Offer your services while mentioning the missions accomplished for the Foresters”

   

2. 2Go see Pol Dullbow

   Dialogue[-1,9] · Pol Dullbow

   At the Sadida temple, Pol Dullbow has entrusted protective charms to his disciples, but an invisible presence disrupts their rituals. He sends you to assist Simples, who has gone to protect the Ingalsses' fields.

   

3. 3Defend Simples in the pumpkwin field

   Combat[7,5] · Simples

   Simples buried his charm, but invisible spirits prevent him from finishing the ritual. Reassure him: a wave fight starts, solo with a companion, alongside Simples. If any enemies remain, Simples eliminates them all on turn 12.

   Dialogue

   1. “Reply that he has nothing more to fear and brandish your weapon”

   If Simples dies, the fight is lost.

4. 4Protect Simples in the barley field

   Combat[11,6] · Simples

   Talk to Simples again after the fight: he still has to protect two fields. Join him at the barley field and tell him you are ready. New wave fight, solo with a companion and Simples, who again eliminates all remaining monsters on turn 12.

   If Simples dies, the fight is lost.

   • Raging Scarecrowfight · level 200 · 7,400 HP · 12 AP · 6 MP

   

5. 5Accompany Simples to the vegetable patch

   [3,14] · Simples

   Talk to Simples again, then join him at the vegetable patch, at the edge of the forest, and get ready. No attacks this time. Once the ritual is done, Simples notices that the earth seems sacred: on his list, the place is called the Goblin Lady's vegetable patch.

   

6. 6Get a Fewmented Cawwot Juice

   Movement[0,6] · Neucky

   The next dialogue asks for a payment. Neucky sells the Fewmented Cawwot Juice for 1,000 kamas, in the basement of the companions' inn. Without this juice, you can pay 100,000 kamas instead.

   The purchase is only possible if you have recruited the companion Karotz at the inn.

   • 1,000 kamasto pay
   • Fewmented Cawwot Juicereceived

7. 7Find the owner of the vegetable patch

   Movement[3,13] · Gobergine

   Gobergine is just above the vegetable patch. Compliment her on how well she looks after her vegetable patch and ask her secret for keeping the spirits from ravaging it.

   Dialogue

   1. “Ask if she is the owner of the vegetable patch next door”

   

8. 8Pay for Gobergine's secret

   Items[3,13] · Gobergine

   Choose one of the two answers: the first costs 100,000 kamas, the second the Fewmented Cawwot Juice. Then talk to Gobergine again, turned into a Cawwot if you gave her the juice: her secret is a magic compost entrusted by her Goblifis cousin.

   Dialogue

   1. “Reply that she can make a donation to needy Goblins and offer 100,000 kamas”
   2. “Offer to trade this secret for the one about turning into a cawwot”

   • 1 × Fewmented Cawwot Juiceto give

9. 9Talk to Simples about the compost

   Dialogue

   Talk to Simples again to tell him this magic compost interests you: it could protect all the fields of the kingdom from evil spirits.

   Dialogue

   1. “Say that you would not mind a short trip to Nolifis Island”

   To continue, you must have completed Goblifis Gobduracy and By This Oath the World Is Written.

10. 10Meet the Goblifis Gardener

    Dialogue[34,-40] · Goblifis Gardener

    On Nolifis, tell the Goblifis Gardener that you come on behalf of Gobergine. His compost draws its magic from the six great spirits of Pandala, and only works on Nolifis or near goblins: since the Grunob academy is not far from the Amakna fields, he agrees to give you some.

    

11. 11Search the garden shack

    [34,-40] · Goblifis Gardener

    Click the wooden kennel at the top left: the compost has rotted. Talk to the Goblifis Gardener again, who runs to check, then talk to him once more: the compost has molded, surely because of the Yokai. A new one must be made, with 20 resources from each Pandala area.

12. 12Understand resource gathering

    Combat

    Each Pandala area has 5 fixed locations, with an NPC named after the area. Talk to them: either you directly get 1 to 2 resources, or a solo fight against a Pandalan Protector starts, which yields 2 to 4. The locations empty out and come back after 20 minutes: expect two or three passes.

    • [27,-29] Wapishikami's Pact
    • [25,-25] Tanu's Pact
    • [19,-24] Akwanokima's Pact
    • [16,-32] Akaitei's Pact
    • [21,-38] Tensojobo's Pact

    There is no need to talk to the Spirit Pacts to learn the locations: they are given below. A Pact only tells you whether a resource in its area has come back.

20. 20Have the Goblifis compost made

    Dialogue[34,-40] · Goblifis Gardener

    Give the 120 resources to the Goblifis Gardener. He is not ready: wait a little, then talk to him again. He mixes your resources with a booger, the secret ingredient. Then answer his three questions correctly, in that order.

    Dialogue

    1. “Give all or some of the ingredients requested for the compost”
    2. “Reply “not not not patient””
    3. “Reply that you are a reincarnated dead person”
    4. “Stay still”

    A wrong answer forces you to wait 5 minutes before trying again.

21. 21Spread the compost with Simples

    [7,5] · Simples

    Go back to the Ingalsses' field. Talk to Simples's Arbabra, who calls his master, then to Simples: show him the fertilizer. He sings the Chant des champs while you spread the compost, and footprints appear.

    

22. 22Make the Wicked Spirit visible

    Dialogue[7,5] · Wicked Spirit

    Talk to the Wicked Spirit, recognizable by its footprints in the compost: throw compost in its face, then recite the formula. A Garden Gnome appears.

    Dialogue

    1. “Throw a handful of compost toward the spirit”
    2. “Utter the formula “situ voapatu tupa” and cough”

23. 23Defeat the Garden Gnome

    Combat[7,5] · Garden Gnome

    The Gnome refuses to explain himself and nearly hits you with a rake. The fight is solo with a companion, alongside Simples, whom you control.

    Dialogue

    1. “Step back to show that you are not looking for a fight”
    2. “Shrug and let the weapons do the talking”

    • Garden Gnomefight · level 200 · 12,000 HP · 12 AP · 6 MP

24. 24Submit to Silvosse's judgement

    Dialogue[7,5] · Silvosse

    Silvosse appears. You tell him about Pandala, the Petrified Forest and Horseman Corruption, but he defends Corruption and accuses you. Talk to him again: Simples steps in, and Silvosse eliminates him with his Abra. Talk to Silvosse one last time, and he disappears after an exchange of glances.

    Dialogue

    1. “Stay stone-faced against such an accusation”
    2. “Look Silvosse straight in the eyes to show him you do not fear him”

25. 25Warn Pol Dullbow

    Dialogue[-1,9] · Pol Dullbow

    Tell Pol Dullbow what happened to Simples. In his view, Silvosse is most certainly influenced by Horseman Corruption. The quest ends.
