What to prepare

Nothing to gather. The quest is reserved for Huppermages, and its two fights can be done in a group.

The 11 quest steps

  1. 1Talk to Hazel Ementree

    Dialogue · Hazel Ementree

    Hazel ordered cauldrons and was delivered anvils. She asks you to find out why the order is wrong.

    Dialogue

    1. “Introduce yourself”
    2. “Accept and head to the forge”
    Hazel Ementree, at [6,-17] (Astrub City)
    Hazel Ementree · [6,-17]
  2. 2Talk to the apprentice blacksmith

    Dialogue · Latem Sa

    Tell Latem Sa that Hazel didn't order any anvils. He claims otherwise: the tofu that delivered the order is still there. Talk to the Drowsy Tofu, which does repeat the message with anvils, then take it with you.

    Dialogue

    1. “Take the drowsy tofu back to Hazel”

  3. 3Show the tofu to Hazel Ementree

    Items · Hazel Ementree

    It's definitely her voice, but she never said that. She suspects Abrazelon of giving her a faulty tofu, and worries: she sent another tofu to the Council tower.

    Dialogue

    1. “Show the drowsy tofu”

  4. 4Avoid a diplomatic incident

    Combat · Adviser Arky

    Adviser Arky starts listening to the message: interrupt the tofu before it says something wrong. A fight against a Carrier Tofu starts, doable in a group.

    Dialogue

    1. “Ask her if she listened to the traveling tofu's message”
    Council Tower, at [4,-19] (Astrub City)

  5. 5Make up the end of the message

    Dialogue · Adviser Arky

    Talk to Adviser Arky again to come up with a more fitting ending for the message. Whatever you choose, the quest moves forward; for example:

    Dialogue

    1. “Archie, you're a good sort, how do you manage to be so beautiful and smart?”
  6. 6Question Abrazelon Sixgriffe

    Dialogue · Abrazelon Sixgriffe

    The tofu trainer refuses to admit that his tofus distort messages. By studying his bird, he discovers that someone recorded a second message over Hazel's: a Whisperer.

    Dialogue

    1. “Talk to him about his tofus”
    Abrazelon Sixgriffe, in [2,-15] (Astrub City)

  7. 7Report the investigation to Hazel Ementree

    Items · Hazel Ementree

    To Hazel, it's surely the work of Whudas, her former messenger, offended at having been replaced. She gives you a bubble pipe to flush him out, and asks you to hand it to him so he'll stop his childish behavior.

    Dialogue

    1. “Report your conversation with Abrazelon”

  9. 9Defeat Rockette
