Quest 1: “LOST MY MARBLES”
[START OF QUEST]
[Quest Info Dialog]
HOD MINDSEEKER
I can’t remember whoody-hoo is me! A spell was cast on who-hoody?
I had a box of marbles… they kept me free! Of spells and curses and grim malady!
Talk to Ulthir the Wise and please plead my case! Perhaps he’s seen my marbles someplace?
[Player Goals]
[Goal 1 – Talk to Ulthir the Wise]
ULTHIR THE WISE
Hod sent you, didn’t he? He’s always been a bit off, but without his box of marbles he’s gone mad.
I don’t know why the marbles calm him down, but if you want to help Hod, you’ll get them back for him.
He scuffled with some Razortusk Warriors a while ago… perhaps they have his box of marbles?
[Goal 2 – Defeat Razortusk Warriors and Collect Marbles]
NARRATOR
(dialog displays after goal completion)
You find a wooden box, but there are no marbles inside! You should tell Hod the bad news…
[Quest End Dialog]
HOD MINDSEEKER
Hoo-hoo! You bring naught but ill news! Will you still help me? I ask you to choose!
[END OF QUEST}
Quest 2: “KILL THE MESSENGER”
[START OF QUEST]
[Quest Info Dialog]
HOD MINDSEEKER
I cannot believe the words I have heard. There must be a way to help save the day!
Ragna Heartmender is the one you must seek! Our people she’ll help every day of the week!
Seek her to the north, close by you will find! Ragna can help mend my poor shattered mind!
[Player Goals]
[Goal 1 – Talk to Ragna Heartmender]
RAGNA HEARTMENDER
Hod Mindseeker sent you? That poor dear. He was one of our greatest hunters, but he’s now got a peg loose!
He’s wandering out in the wild and keeps speaking in verse, seeking some colored stones to help him!
It won’t work. What he needs is the rush of battle to restore his thoughts, to bring him back to who he was.
If you wish to help Hod, you must go and challenge him to duel. A good scuffle will set him right as rain!
[Goal 2 – Find Hod Mindseeker]
HOD MINDSEEKER
It cannot be, these things you say! I’ll set you right and send you on your way!
NARRATOR
A mad look crosses Hod’s face, and he begins to growl at you.
[Goal 3 – Defeat Hod Mindseeker]
[Quest End Dialog]
HOD MINDSEEKER
What have I done? The madness has passed … my thoughts are clear as ice now. I am in your debt!
