The Baubbleshire
Good day to you! How are you, friend?
You're here to learn? That's good! We tend
To thrive on thrills of new things learned,
And junk into inventions turned.
But don't lose sight of what's around
When building with the things you've found:
The target model, the ideal,
Keep it in mind to make it real.
A clockwork gnoll? Observe the brute.
A wolf? Then wolves. If clockwork fruit -
But anyway, I have a need,
The price of metal's high indeed.
And I enjoy life's finer things:
Especially free cogs and springs.
Scrap metal fills the Baubbleshire
So bring me bits and bobs and wire.
Excellent! A job well done!
And from this I have learned a ton!
My clockwork gnomes were lacking, see,
A certain gullibility.
But I've another project planned,
It's something really rather grand.
My breakthrough will leave quite a mark,
Bigger even than Nogginspark!
Who's he? It's good that you don't know
That means he's managed to lay low.
He studied rats from tail to snout
But everyone was quite creeped out
He disappeared from his detractors
But he still sends me his Reactors.
If it needs power and is small,
A Nogginspark Reactor's all
You need. But now he hides below
And made the population grow
Of rodents - yet they're really not.
His clockwork rats are how they're brought.
So go bring seven back for me
I'll be here, pond'ring patiently.
Well done! Don't think of halflings, quick.
I'll show you now my latest trick.
With this technique I will obtain
The foremost thoughts upon the brain.
Your thoughts I'll read most easily:
Halflings there are what I see.
Go ask around these questions five
And from this data I'll derive
What they have upon their mind
From just the first word that you find.
What's the way you'd calibrate
A Fizzo Torque Wrench in the state
You'd do some work in Lavastorm
And same in Everfrost perform?
What's the measurement from Keen
On a Druther-Nest, to Preen?
To vote for Queen, if you'd a voice,
Would nut or bolt obtain your choice?
Although it isn't proven yet,
What theory is most widely set
How thermoparticles decide
The flow of metaphysic tides?
Isn't Neezer Grund amazing,
Shouldn't you his mind be praising?
The Banton particle's amounts
Of what are high, by most accounts?
First to Drundo - he seems drunk.
It's likely that he's going to flunk.
Erm, he says, and nothing other.
What was that about my mother?
I don't understand at all,
And, Thermo-what? I don't recall.
Neezer Grund's amazing! Who?
And, I don't understand - part two.
To Remo Zigg - Now go away!
But just hear what I have to say!
Leave me be! The answer's nine,
A nut! Now leave!, I can't opine.
Neezer Grund's amazing! Who?
Is it tension? Tension! Shoo!
And last, not least, to Fillzer Fuzzle.
Maybe he can solve this puzzle.
Variable from hot to ice:
It's 0.034, precise.
In bolts, it's twenty over fifty,
Going to abstain - he's shifty!
No idea, then Neezer - Who?
I think it's tension. Is it? Oo!
Erm, leave, variable - the first.
What, the, in's what they conversed.
The third! I need more data! More!
I, nut, going. Now for four.
Theramwatt is right! I, no.
Who, who, who. Oh, ouch! How low!
I, is, I. Tautology!
Exciting stuff to busy me!
Analysis will take a while
All this data to compile.
You should go visit Poko Zing
And take this Tickerdoodle thing.
What do you want? A random task?
There's hostiles here. You shouldn't ask.
Help with that? I don't know you.
But here's some random work to do.
Go find assorted metal parts
I'll use them in my tink'ring arts.
You've brought them back - wait, this one's
     new
And this is bad - Freeportian, too.
Go and tell the guard Germain
What these ruins now contain.
What is it, citizen? I've news.
I found things Poko Zing could use,
But this one's from across the sea -
Freeportian's what it seems to be.
The bad news, it just doesn't cease,
With one more thing to break the peace.
I thank you for defending, gnome,
All those who call fair Qeynos home.

The Baubbleshire
Hello! Good day, my friendly friend!
We're matched just right, I do contend.
You offered me a mug of ale,
So welcome, friend of Rivervale!
We halflings need to stick together
Both in fair and fouler weather.
My friend Maela, she's been down
Would you see about her frown?
She's over by the waterfall.
It's calming here. Life gets us all.
That's all she'd say. She won't say more.
She's helped too much to just ignore.
I know what will bring her cheer:
The shadebloom flowers growing here!
Oh, Shadebloom. Thank you, I suppose.
Rondo said to give you those.
That ruffian! That little tease.
My husband used to give me these.
The call of home has its demands,
He's off in the Enchanted Lands.
I miss him oh so terribly
And I don't want my friends to see
Me be a burden and complain.
But you help them without disdain.
Oh, I suppose you're probably right,
And thank you, friend, for this delight.
So how'd it go? I knew she'd share.
Her husband's absence shows its wear.
And now that she has let it out
Her friends can help her; there's no doubt.
It's good to help - and good to joke.
Not Maela, she's too sweet to poke.
Pranks! Our gift from Bristlebane
Although of late I must abstain
My reputation, well, they'd know,
So I'll send you and watch the show.
This kit of prank preparedness
Has all you need for your success.
Inside are pies and Remmy's note,
And the instructions Rondo wrote.
First Drundo. He replaced my brew
And turned my lips a purple hue
A walnut pie all topped with cream
Will seem to him the halfling's dream
But he's allergic to the nut
He'll swell up like a lush's gut!
Wherever shall I set this pie?
For one just like it I did buy
I couldn't help but eat it whole
And then I had to take a stroll -
Twin pies, you say? Pies need a home.
I wouldn't want a pie to roam.
A berry pie? Just leave it here.
It might go rather well with beer.
Let my second prank unfold:
Jayla charmed me from my gold.
And third, well, Bolo's getting old
With his opinion of himself.
So give him pie from on my shelf.
You bring to me dear Remmy's note?
I want to meet you's what he wrote!
And it says he'll bring some pie
He's interested! I'll soon be by!
That Bolo keeps on asking me,
But Remmy's who I want to see.
Now Bolo's getting quite the news,
An offer that he won't refuse.
Jayla wants to meet with him.
No, I don't think so. I'm not dim.
Well, in case you turned her down
There's someone else from here in town -
Wait! You said she wants a pie?
She's there in Oakmyst? off I fly!
An hour, though? That's rather quick.
Your berry pie would do the trick!
It was for a delivery,
I'll get another. Take it, free.
Rondo will be quite amused
With all the mischief he's diffused.
He'll tell them what he shouldn't know
The looks upon their face will grow
It's priceless, but it's also dear
To spread around such halfling cheer.
A baker who's a friend of mine
Made for me these pies so fine.
Bees are something we don't lack.
Their honey's what I'll pay her back.
This honey's good. You've really grown.
It's time for pranking of your own.
The guard thinks Remmy stole some pies
It might be true, it might be lies.
So with him in this little jam
Go and call him Pie Man Sam.
Hello! Nice day! That's why I'm here.
You're Pie Man Sam, that's very clear.
They weren't for me! They had no food,
This family and their little brood -
Here! I'll pay you any fine!
Seven, eight, and here is nine!
You dare to offer me a bribe?
Your punishment I will describe:
A fine's not all we had in store,
Days and nights with every chore
Within the kitchen where you stole
I can't do that! I'll make it whole!
But maybe you'll avoid the charge
If my pocket's filled up large
With silver. I'll do anything!
No, wait! Before, that was a sting.
Just take me now! I cannot bear
To stay within this endless snare!
Rondo knew you'd fall for this!
You got me good! But it's amiss.
I didn't make those pies go poof
But I can't find them any proof.
Something got into the shed
Please go search for clues instead.
This barrel's smashed, there's bits of wood,
But what is this? Oh, this is good!
It's very coarse, this patch of fur,
Looks like from some gnollish cur.
Remmy's not who they'll accuse:
Germain appreciates this news.
He's glad to hear, but must beware
Could this be big, or something rare?
Without more proof, the guard stays short -
Erm, no offense. None taken, sport.

Castleview Hamlet
Greetings to ye, noble one!
Every breath, Marr's will be done.
Marr hath often aided us
Let us now our tale discuss.
Overwhelmed, we fled to Guk
The Rallosians had us stuck
But our valour made him proud
He unleashed the Greenmist cloud.
Gukta we could then reclaim
But slavery and the Shattering came.
Again Marr's blessing with us dwelt
We won, but many wrongs were dealt.
I'm parched with telling you this tale -
Wouldst thou fetch a pint of ale?
A sweet bog spirit to drink down
Thou wilt find within this town.
Here's a coin; I must wait here
For a message to appear.
Ah! This drink is what I crave
But, alas! The news is grave.
An ogre in the Down Below!
Inquiry Rrak if this is so!
Mine eyes have struck me to the quick
I desired to fight and kick
But bats and spiders he'd assail,
So I returned to tell the tale,
What hast thou learned and brought from
     Rrak?
Will this beast emerge? Attack?
Go below and search for clues,
Something that can bring us news.
Thou hast returned! What didst thou find?
Did he leave anything behind?
This satchel's ogrish in design,
But on it is a Qeynos sign.
By the truth of Marr he's swayed,
Freeport's overlord betrayed!
It seems he's good. May Marr be praised!
But many here will be amazed.
We're duty-bound to help in need
So now within these walls proceed
To spread these tenets to the elves
They share honour with ourselves.
To elf and froglok news must spread
Lest they both be filled with dread.
The word is shared. They will not fret.
The ogre poseth not a threat.
Graac Justheart needeth now thy hands
Above the stairs with tads she stands.
What service dost thou now desire?
Water do the tads require.
Procure from Carpenter Goroop
A barrel for my taddish troupe.
Then fill it from the fountain here
Although the water's far too clear.
I come from Graac. A barrel, sir.
My services belong to her!
I'll part with one, she need but ask,
Made tight and sturdy for her task.
The barrel's filled, but froak! Alas!
The tads are now upon the grass!
What hath happened, dearest lady?
Who hath done this deed so shady?
An ogre ran within the walls!
'Twas he who caused these dreadful falls?
Nay, I hurried to protect
But my speed could not be checked.
Instead my haste did tip a barrel
Help me save them from this peril.
Ye found them all amongst the weeds!
Marr's name is praised through noble deeds.
Thou aidedst them without a yelp
Lost were they without thy help.
Kwa requesteth all details:
Please, regale me with thy tales.
No harm did on the tads befall.
Thou bringst Marr's blessing to us all.
One more favour I would ask,
If thou hast no other task:
In Oakmyst Charlin needs thine aid
He serveth in the Queen's brigade.
With faith in Marr, please go assist
And do his will within our midst.

Castleview Hamlet
The Koada'Dal have need of you -
Who are they? What are you, new?
If it should be Tunare's will
Koada'Dal will die, or kill
A high elf's not among our peers,
That's human with some pointy ears.
We've fought in wars both small and great
And we would never hesitate.
Now we're here as refugees
Our time has gone without reprise.
To help our people's what I do
These tasks must be attended to.
In Felwithe were the Green Wisp plants
At night they glowed; their light would dance
I wish those here in Castleview
Could see what all of us once knew.
Fill this flask with water, blessed,
The soil in that barrel's best,
Around the fountain are the seeds:
These three satisfy our needs.
Excellent! They have been found.
See those planters all around?
Plant the wisp beside the tree
Their beauty everyone shall see.
The blessed water, seed, and soil
Make this work an easy toil.
The plants grow at a stunning rate
Seven done, but what is eight?
An agitated wisp attacks!
But soon is slain within its tracks.
Have you planted all the bushes?
You're planting one and something pushes
Out from deep within the plant?
This evil must be fixed. I can't
Cleanse this taint all by myself
But I know another elf.
Seek Shae'Ahla by the gate.
Learn from her the green wisp's fate.
All the sentients follow pain.
What does that mean? Please explain.
Elves and humans, gnomes and trolls,
All of Norrath's sentient souls,
Without intent, do yet embark
Upon the paths of chaos dark.
Worlds in strife produce no glee
What has brought you here to me?
The green wisp gave you quite the scare?
You see? Corruption's everywhere!
But I can help. Please, give your hand.
Take this blessing to the land.
Rub your fingers on the leaf,
Then this plant shall have relief.
The blessing worked, but then a sprite
Emerged and it began to fight.
A sprite had this corruption's breath?
I'm sorry that we've caused its death.
We only wanted to bring growth,
But seek its spirit for us both.
The spirit will remain nearby
And maybe even tell us why.
Tell me, sprite, what have you sown?
For what I've done, I can't atone.
This day is sad, for I did fall
Corruption has me in its thrall.
I just remember one green thread
But I must go. I'll tend this bed.
What did she say? Her thread is strong
She yet may to Tunare belong.
Now go to Oakmyst, tell this tale
To Adalin Emerael.
What this corrupted sprite might mean
He knows, for Oakmyst, too, has seen
Unpleasant things of unknown source.
While I was upon my course
To cleanse the trees and make then clear
A gnoll did suddenly appear.
Fighting skills I've not achieved,
And, sadly, I was not believed
When I escaped and told the guard.
Please cleanse these trees which have been
     marred.
While you're out on this patrol,
If indeed you find a gnoll,
Find some proof and bring it back.
Evidence we must not lack.
The trees are cleansed, for this I saw,
And you have a gnollish paw?
If their plan we would avert,
The Qeynos guard we must alert.
Lieutenant Charlin's not enthused:
You're the second one confused
By what you saw - a gnoll, right here?
A paw? Now this is cause for fear.
You have some proof. I'll send the word,
Now that this is not absurd,
On up the chain, to my command.
Our people thank you, and our land.

Good to see you! We've not met.
We've things in common, though, I bet.
Sometimes we don't know who we are,
Which, for our kind, is quite bizarre.
Who are you, if you're so in touch?
The answer doesn't matter much
If it's something you believe,
It can change, but to achieve,
Keep present whate'er it may be,
Now go remind another three.
The young learn who they are through war,
The old reminded what they're for,
Go around and spread this light,
Find these three, and start a fight.
The guards are used to such a thing,
The way we are, and what we bring.
First is Marus, at the bar,
And second Angus, not too far
From the armoury, near the dock,
And Dunda, third, would quickly knock
Your head and punch and take a whack,
But lately she's been holding back.
There sits Marus, drinking beer -
Is someone making cheese in here?
What did you say? Now closer, well,
It is your feet that cause that smell.
Oh, that's good - he takes a swing,
But soon he's down. That has to sting.
Angus, standing by the wall
Needs to have a healthy brawl.
Did someone put a lighthouse in?
Oh, just your forehead, all that skin.
Did I hear what you said to me?
It's shiny! That's B-A-L-D!
He lunges - You are going down!
We'll see! He charges with a frown.
The struggle's brief. He soon is beat.
Just one more to go complete.
What d'ya need in Dunda's place?
Mav was right about your face.
Don't mention her! Now you'll regret
The thrashing you're about to get!
Maybe so, or maybe not -
She's down in just a single shot.
Hah hah! You're back! Those fights remind
One of his place - that's what you'll find.
I like you. I won't send you off quite yet.
This problem has me quite upset.
My package isn't in my grip.
I hope that it survived the trip.
Take this manifest from me,
It's shipment GG4QC.
I hope I'm not a worrier -
Should I fight the courier?
No, don't do that. Just go and ask.
This should be a simple task.
GG4QC is here,
But on the list does not appear.
I'm working through the overflow,
Outside of that, I wouldn't know.
The coordinator's at the pier,
Now are we done? I'm working here.
You're here for Burk about a crate?
Its arrival's very late?
All new shipments we receive
Are unloaded, and we leave
Them on the dock until they're moved.
Go and check them. You're approved.
Was it there? In the thirteen
Crates and barrels that you've seen?
No? Ask the loader of the dock -
Marus'll know about this stock.
You're back. Still looking for a fight?
Sometimes, yes, but not tonight.
A shipment that you helped unload
Should be here, but never showed.
I've been following its path -
Oh, that one! That one took a bath.
He said it fell and floated down?
I hope you're not afraid to drown.
Put these buoys on each crate,
We'll pull them out and save this freight.
You found my package! Another, too,
That must be a gift for you.
I'm glad this package wasn't lost,
A weaving found in Everfrost.
It details my family's past,
Our whole story we've amassed,
It's very educational,
Important, inspirational.
This must immediately adorn
Our house. I'll send you now to Jorn.
In Oakmyst, where I'm sure he will
Have a task you can fulfil.
What duty might Jorn soon require?
That little blasted, jerk-faced liar!
Burk sent me - did he not speak true?
Oh, no, not Burk. This gnome is who
Has got me steamed, for he's a cheat
At high-stakes cards, and he'll get beat.
He fled out here. I was too drunk
To smash his face, the gnomish punk.
I've been out here for several days,
The guards would tell me if he strays.
But I could really use some rest,
I saw him heading to the west.
He can't get out, but he could sneak.
The docks are where you need to seek.
There you are, and now you'll pay!
Oops, I'll go the other way!
We need to talk. What's this about?
Jorn wants his money, cheating lout!
Oh, no, you don't! I won't go down!
You don't run this stupid town!
But to the ground he quickly sags.
I had to kill him. Here's his bags.
I'm glad you got my money back,
But what is this within his sack?
A book in the Lucanic tongue?
Looks like our gnomish friend had sprung
From Freeport - this is not for me.
This is something guards should see.
Go to Charlin, tell the tale.
He can follow up this trail.
I have some news. I found a tome
Brought here by a cheating gnome.
You found this here, among the oaks?
With my luck, it's a book of jokes.
I'll send it to be studied well,
And see what secrets it may tell.
I thank you for this loyal deed,
It may to something bigger lead.

Well, hello! You're sort of new?
I could use some help from you.
My husband's been out for a while,
The shop is starting to compile
Many tasks that must be done,
But, right now, I'm only one.
Here's what I need you to do:
Right here is my fermenting brew!
I found a family recipe,
And got the mix to all agree.
Ingredients for my next batch
Are here, but sadly, this dispatch
Is sitting here - it's unassigned.
The shipping company's behind.
My honey, cherries, and my yeast
Have been here two whole days, at least.
I have an overflow manifest
Which will help upon this quest.
Here are 4QGCG's
Barrels - spices - some old cheese -
Under that, the frozen cherries!
Wow, this barrel really varies.
Inside 2DF0F's hid
The yeast right underneath the lid,
And lastly, for the dwarven chef,
Is barrel QGC4F.
Packed in 'gnomish misc.' and coal,
The honey jar remains quite whole.
You found them all, and just in time!
This batch is done, and in its prime.
It's been so long that all must think
That I made up my family drink.
I must stay here and tend my shop,
So would you go and give a drop
To several friends? Collect the jug
And take my brew for them to chug.
Gnor and Gurna in the inn
Will love to give this brew a spin
And Dunda Frostgrip gets a share
She's by the scribe shop, over there.
Gnor thinks it keeps you warm at night,
And Gurna says it's got some bite.
But Dunda's not so fond of Mav -
What great, big, new thing does she have?
Twice in a row, can't be one-upped -
Retaliation must erupt.
She brewed her family's recipe.
She didn't! Trouble! Where is she?
I'll pound that brew - it's aley bliss!
Delicious - but don't tell her this!
Your brew is shared all over town,
It actually knocked Gnor right down.
Gurna loved it, Dunda, too,
Although she said to not tell you.
I knew she'd love it! She had thought
The recipe would ne'er be wrought.
Although she teased about my booze,
Today is filled with such good news!
And there's more! A package from
My cousin's here. It's finally come!
But the shipping's all a mess,
It certainly is not express.
It's on the docks, so would you go
Before it's dropped in overflow?
Mav's new shipment's what you need?
She has a backlog. But proceed
Down on the dock. It's at the end.
Go retrieve it for your friend.
You got my package from the dock!
For months I've waited for this rock!
From Kaladim is whence it came -
You surely know that dwarven name.
To visit it one day's my dream,
Impossible as that may seem.
But here we also have a stone,
A monument to halls unknown.
Please take it there. It might react.
Perhaps our home remains intact.
The stone is cold, and rather rough
For building, though, it's just the stuff.
The stones together give a sense
Both audible and quite intense.
Hammers, chisels, very strong,
Moving carts, a dwarven song.
What happened with what I had asked?
Sounds and visions from our past.
It's strong with you, Kaladim's spirit.
My husband, too, would love to hear it.
He's very late; he's been delayed
Probably from the shipping trade.
But if his drunkenness is rife,
Come back - that job will need a wife.
But without or with a mug,
I really miss him, that old lug.
In Oakmyst Forest he awaits,
Surprisingly, quite near the gates.
There you are! You must be Marv.
I'm glad you're not about to starve
Mav sent you here, and on the double,
She thinks I'm drunk, or else in trouble.
But I'm fine. I'm waiting here.
The courier lost half my beer.
If I ship this half, extra fees,
And if I leave, then theft's a breeze.
He dropped my kegs right in the drink.
Would you retrieve what he let sink?
You've found them all! Ah, this is great!
But wait - I didn't order eight.
Someone else has been about.
This one says Blackburrow Stout.
Don't take it back - the guard will know
Just where that keg will need to go.
You found a keg of gnollish ale?
You're not the first to come and hail
Me with some news about a gnoll
Here in the forest, on patrol.
Things are getting rather strange.
That they are. May they soon change.

May the gods bring you their blessing!
Erm, if you're the sort who is professing -
You used to tell just by one's race
Which god it is he would embrace
But a human might maintain
Faith in Tunare or Bristlebane.
All you can assume's we strive,
No matter what, that we'll survive.
The only thing that's constant's change,
We adjust, adapt, and rearrange.
Although other cities fell,
Here in Qeynos, all may dwell.
I follow Quellious and her peace,
Which, of late, seems to decrease.
If we knew ourselves and neighbours,
We'd have no war, nor all its labours.
Oh! Andret said that I could borrow,
Yesterday, some books tomorrow!
Would you pick them up for me?
He should have two, or maybe three.
Here's the books for her to start.
The one on Brell, though, came apart.
Hmm - 'Age of Blood, Age of Glory',
The Combine Empire's violent story.
Human power was at its heights.
'Humans, Barbarians, and Erudites'
All related, did you know?
This understanding helps us grow.
Although the Combine Empire fell,
That's not to say we did, as well.
Our time has not come and gone,
Our city adapts and carries on,
Our queen's admired - another book?
And it's ancient, by the look.
It's called 'Followers of Brell
Serilis', but some pages fell.
Too bad this knowledge now has flown,
Scattered, and the wind has blown
Them who-knows-where in Nettleville.
I dropped them, so I shall refill
Your tome that's filled with ancient lore.
They're here. Have you another chore?
You've fit in quite well 'round here,
Where we help, not rule by fear.
I don't have another task
My four friends, though, you could ask.
Amazu, if I might obtain
Some work - I'm from your friend Helain -
My friend, you say? I'll run you through!
Aaaah, I'm sorry! Just teasing you!
For that, I should have you declawed!
Ha! I like you! I applaud!
I've nothing, though, to fetch or shovel.
Then others wait within the Hovel!
You're back! Don't say she finished those!
Not yet! Her interest really shows.
Might you, though, have a task for me?
Not today? To number three!
Bahati Linnxar's by her stall,
But, sadly, has no work at all.
She says Helain is sweet, but odd,
With talk of Quellious, her god.
On my hunting she has frowned,
My hunt is where my peace is found!
And last, Laudine. You're new here, friend?
Yes, but I've run from end to end
Of Nettleville, sent by Helain,
So its knowledge I might obtain.
Helain? I like her. You'd excel
If you take a page from her book well.
No thanks, those take forever to find.
What was that? Oh, never mind.
She had sent you here because -
For work? I've none, but Johfrit does.
Sounds good. He's not a stable boy?
Ha ha! No, that's not his employ.
You're here for work? See, I procure
Goods that are a bit obscure.
My suppliers made my shipment shrink:
They dropped two items in the drink.
And they decided not to dive
To make my life hard, I contrive.
They didn't finish; they weren't paid.
Now get them and complete my trade.
You found my barrel and my crate.
Well done. My customers await.
You're all slimy and smell like fish.
But you've retrieved the goods they wish,
You sure that this is honest work?
Of course! But let the guards not lurk
Till of these goods you've gotten rid -
Take Amazu his imported squid,
And Laudine her ale. That's how she knew
To send me to find work from you!
Be sure they pay, else I cannot
Pay you for the goods you got.
You brought my squid! You smell so tasty!
All the Kerra will follow, hasty!
Here's your ale, but for a price.
More than willing for drink this nice.
Here's the money that they paid
For the goods I have conveyed.
Here's your cut. An item, too.
Don't go! I have no more to do,
But I know others who can use
Some help. I know you won't refuse.
Lieutenant Dawson needs a hand
It's honest work that she has planned.
She's in the Bog, right through the gate
Thank you. Hmm. I'll head there straight.
A question? My mind's occupied.
With what? Not sure. Things coincide.
Strange things are happening in the Bog.
The ecology just took a jog
We need a stronger presence here,
But Qeynos says that isn't clear.
I'm still working on my plan,
But I know you'll help as soon as you can.

Nettleville Hovel
Is direction what you seek?
Purpose, meaning, when it's bleak?
Of words and friendship I can boast,
With rituals I help the most.
We hold to them, for that's their aim,
And know that others do the same.
You will not have far to roam:
This one acquaints you with your home.
The Ritual of Hearth you'll learn.
Gather soil, then return.
Gather it from places three:
By the market's western tree,
By tree that's near the bog of peat,
By Qeynos' gate will this complete.
Now take these soils, let them fall
Through your fingers. That is all.
Nettleville will now know you,
And, perhaps, you'll know it, too.
Wait - this soil's from each site?
The smell and colour isn't right.
Something might be very wrong,
There's elements that don't belong
Someone's conducting a Pa'Rok,
This mystery we must unlock.
Take this to the Spiritist.
Laharn's his name. He can assist.
This soil causes some concern?
Let us see what we can learn,
But it's quicker to enlist
The help of a human alchemist
Ask Gunta to identify
What's here. She's with the scribe, nearby.
You say it's an important task?
I don't have time for what you ask.
I must label; I must sort,
So I must cut our meeting short.
I won't, if I don't tend the store,
Be his assistant any more.
And leave the alchemist alone,
For he has problems of his own.
To help us, sadly, she refused.
Not surprising is this news,
For we are often all alone.
This makes us stronger. We have grown.
Three things I need if they won't stop:
Reactive Kesmith from his shop,
A Litsuth bag the tailor sells,
And Selkie mushrooms by the bells.
Lakosha asked you for this test?
She thought the compounds might suggest
The ceremony was corrupt,
And something bad might soon erupt.
Pa'Rok's a way we mourn our dead,
But it's too long, or old, some said:
It helps not those who think such things,
For others, closure's what it brings.
If this corruption does not cease,
The ceremony brings no peace.
It threatens the link with the soul
Another may come, or not the whole,
This study we have not employed,
It's something that we must avoid.
Tell Lakosha what I've said.
We must stop the stage ahead.
The performer's in great danger here,
And we don't know what might appear.
Return to where the soil was,
And tell him what corruption does.
By the Peat Bog! He's the one!
Don't interrupt! This must be done!
Contaminants are in the soil.
This has made the ritual spoil.
The final offering's been made -
She appears - Ja'neth's shade.
Because of the corrupted stage,
She's not at peace, but in a rage.
What have I done? Instead of bliss,
I've poisoned her because of this.
She fights, but soon is put to rest -
Now must my penance be addressed.
Ralkesh, Ja'neth will be just fine.
Do you believe that, with this sign?
I'll tell Lakosha of her fate:
It was completed, I was late,
But he'll prepare and try again,
And now we'll find whence comes this stain.
The botanist will run some tests
To find exactly what infests
The soil. So I need some clues
From the sludges and the ooze.
They eat the mud in which they slink,
I'll need that, too, to find this link.
The samples found, the tests will run
Just a moment... now they're done
This mineral is not found here,
But in the Caves it does appear.
Lieutenant Dawson needs to know
The results my tests all show.
What is this about the dirt?
Alone, no need for an alert,
But other things are going on.
This worries me, who might be drawn
With these changes in the land -
But I thank you for your hand.

Starcrest Commune
To seek the truth's the greatest quest,
And next enlightenment is best.
Will you achieve this goal you seek?
You do not know? That's not unique.
Enlightenment, though, of our race
I will achieve, but now the pace
Is rather slow. Those who are here
And those in Freeport don't adhere
To the same compassionate views.
I'll show them something else to choose.
Their views, though, I can tolerate,
Their evil action's what I hate.
A heretical relic has been brought
Into Qeynos. This must be fought.
Its ideals are adverse
To Qeynos. It may have a curse
Or just attract those who promote
Keeping those ideals afloat.
Go see a human behind the shop,
Climb the bench, for he's up top.
Cayan's friends can help us find
The package that I have in mind.
It was brought to Oolium,
His path has kept our agent from
Following, for he'd be seen,
So learn what Cayan's friends can glean.
He'll want some payment - not in coin -
A favour's what he will rejoin
For information flows his way
Through favours and his friends' array.
Oolium's package is what you seek?
I will need some time to speak
With friends, but I'll get what you ask.
In the meantime, here's my task:
Red sun berries grow around
Starcrest Commune, near the ground.
I get them, then I'd be accused
Of having things assassins used.
An Erudite, well, say that you're
Looking for an ancient cure.
But their malicious properties
Are not what I intend for these.
They're at the bush's heart to take
So reach on in and give a shake.
You've got them? Good. A statue, small
And bronze is sold at Zinun's stall
No one who's in their right mind
Would purchase such a useless find.
To you it has a certain charm.
Go buy it. Really. What's the harm?
The statuette has lost its sheen,
But there's a tiny seam between
The upper and the lower part
A minor twist, and it's apart.
Inside, a note: We found your grey
But he threw the box away.
He must have thought we're on to him
He made the package take a swim.
It landed with a heavy thud
And likely in three feet of mud.
It could be in the Peat Bog, deep,
Or eaten by the beasts that creep.
This note is bad. Now we won't know
To whom the package was to go.
Who knows who could find it now?
That we simply can't allow.
We were so close! Wait... there's a grate
That might have stopped our precious crate.
In the water, there's debris,
Or is that the box I see?
It was pushed here by the tide,
It's far too large, but what's inside
The package which I just have seen
Can easily be pulled between
The bars. Inside, a metal box,
And soggy note beneath the docks.
There's arcane symbols all in black,
I should get these quickly back.
The ink has run, but I sense more:
Velderoth is who it's for.
That's the box? These runes... oh, dear.
A Soul Spike is what's found in here.
A weapon of the heretic,
He must be out of Qeynos, quick.
We must make this Soul Spike known.
Once it's destroyed, he will have flown.
Go to Cayan, get the stand,
Then tap it with this stone in hand.
The stand is up. A magic sting -
No! How could you do this thing?
Heretic, you should now flee.
Your insults will just anger me.
This knowledge should not be destroyed!
For power it can be employed.
If this isn't what you seek,
You're not an Erudite. You're weak.
He's gone. We should not share this news.
To keep the peace, the truth must lose.
He could cause, indirectly, harm
If this gets out. There'd be alarm.
All this, illusions, strictly play,
Is how this must be explained away.
Go to the Peat Bog, seek a friend,
He'll help put this to an end.
Maareona sent me here
With news of heretics, I fear.
He and his Soul Spike are now gone,
No one else knows what went on.
So you've been Maareona's aide?
Not long? Then you can help here in the
     shade.
My contact doesn't know my face,
So I can send you in my place.
Take the path to near the tree
My contact's waiting there for me.
The dark figure says, "Ist neelum"
The reply, "Ret katha est al inum"
Which means that 'it all cancels out',
You're the one, without a doubt.
To the south, a sunken log,
Where you'll find Pale here in the Bog.
"An ambiguous reflection"
Is what you'll say for his direction.
The password worked. Go to the north,
And veh'ra will quite soon come forth.
Say it's by the "light of the moon"
You'll have what you seek very soon.
Veh'ra gives the envelope.
Then back. No trouble, then, I hope?
Not really. Good. Exciting news!
Lieutenant Dawson, she can use
The information you retrieved.
Here's the note that I received.
From Rujiarmo? A bit suspect.
But still, my thanks. I'll have this checked.

The Willow Wood
Well met, Ayr'Dal. That much is clear.
Worry not, you'll find friends here.
Your mother's side? Sentimental, then.
Or father's, a more practical ken.
Such patterns I have come to see,
And others, well, you'll soon agree.
Go talk to Gar, behind the inn,
See how he treats one of our kin.
Then Lia, by the Elddar's gates,
And see what attitude awaits.
You want some work? For coin, no doubt.
You just thought that you'd help me out?
Good deal for me, for I've a task,
But I know coin is why you ask.
Some kids moved all my labels 'round
So that my goods cannot be found.
Check each box and take a peek
And find where are the things I seek.
Clay figures, raisins, carving wood
Bottles, herbs - your work is good.
That was quick, and thorough, too.
I'm sorry that I snapped at you.
Lia, you've a troubled look.
What can I do? A strong wind shook
The birds who nest among the trees,
Not that you care for things like these.
A half elf wouldn't understand
Silly concerns about the land
That's not an insult, simply true -
So you don't want my help, do you?
I'm sorry to come off as such,
I didn't think you'd care too much.
Very well. Go check each nest.
If eggs are fallen and distressed,
Bring them back. I'll give them care.
How will I know which bird goes where?
Just like an Ayr'Dal to ask that.
I know where every bird is at.
The northeast corner of the inn
Is where your search should go begin,
Then to the north, there grows a tree,
And by the Ruins will make three.
You found them all! They've been retrieved
With greatest care. I'm most relieved.
It looks like all three can be saved.
You've returned. Were they behaved?
Assuming, rude, but thanked my aid.
Unfortunate this was displayed.
But not surprising, and here's why
I showed you what is here nearby.
We're often judged, but we're well-versed
In tending to assume the worst.
We think look down is what they'll do
And see it when it isn't true.
It's hard to deal with, but there's more.
Go see Milo, in the store.
Ask of Lyssia, seek her out,
Ask her what Milo's all about.
Milo, you're quite chipper, sir.
Lyssia? You'll marry her?
I'm very lucky, I confess,
That she to this plain guy said yes.
She's beautiful, with wit and grace,
And wisdom from the elven race.
When I mess up - which is a lot,
An even temper's what she's got.
It sounds like you're a lucky man.
I'll be as lucky as I ever can.
Lyssia! You must be she.
Milo's delightful, isn't he?
I spoke with him. He says you're great.
But he is of a plainer state.
Well, how embarrassing is that!
He thinks his own worth's rather flat.
But his modesty appeals to me,
He's careful, strong, don't you agree?
Love comes to all of us in time,
He doesn't see it, though, but I'm
Able to tell he's quite the man,
And share this joy as oft I can.
You're back, but something has occurred.
Milo's story must be deferred.
The essay that I had to write
Has pages which just took a flight.
I took a break, forgot a stone,
When I got back, the wind had blown
Them all around the Willow Wood.
Will you find them, if you could?
I have to now rewrite a bunch
Of pages a dog had for lunch.
You found all five! Now, where were we?
Milo and Lyssia - what did you see?
He loves her beauty, wisdom, wit,
She thinks he's strong, compassionate.
Their races' strengths are what they love,
Just as before, we'd spoken of
What's weak in elves and humankind,
But also keep these strengths in mind.
We're not better or worse than each,
Though that conclusion others reach.
This can be hard, but has rewards,
My essay's on what this affords.
It's now complete, so would you take
A copy over to the lake?
In the Ruins, west of here,
My friend Elvic will appear.
I thank you, friend, for Daelyn's work.
But something has begun to lurk.
Something's off - I know not what -
I've found abandoned camps here, but
It's mostly junk, though sometimes clues.
Would you help, and find out who's
Causing all the mystery here.
See if something makes this clear.
An old, worn brush, a mouldy doll,
A mug that's cracked. Could this be all?
Finally! I found a note!
This clue, it was a gnoll that wrote.
The guard must see this right away,
You found this here? This means that they
Could likely have some plans in store,
And Qeynos isn't sending any more
Guards out here for quite some time.
Unfortunate. At least though, I'm
On this, if but only one,
And grateful, friend, for all you've done.

The Willow Wood
Welcome to the Willow Wood!
An eager learner, that is good.
Speak with Davyn, he's the same,
And learn Feir'Dal's not just a name.
Offer help - he's just ahead -
And then return with what is said.
Good day to you. And you, as well.
I'm busy, though. My thoughts propel
Me everywhere. I'm quite distracted,
And my focus is impacted.
It must be from some inner distress,
But my dear friend's tribute can't progress.
Your help I most appreciate,
See Aelis. She will help create.
I knew that he'd accept your aid.
Do you know why a tribute's made?
You will learn. It will grow clear.
Reverence for something dear,
Friends or family, nature, too,
Crafting tributes is what I do.
I help the one who comes to ask
Make something worthy for his task.
We'll build not just a physical shell,
But metaphysical as well.
It's strange that he does not desire
To take more part or to acquire
The things we need. But as he please.
First Dewdrop leaves. You'll gather these.
The quality can be great or scant,
Each must be from a different plant.
Here are the leaves. What's next to do?
The tribute needs a task from you.
It's Davyn's tribute, after all,
So do it for him - grand or small.
Is my tribute finished yet?
A task for you must now be met.
That's funny, since you're doing one.
What sort of task must now be done?
It could be anything you need.
I've one, though dangerous, indeed.
I'll try. A wolf was seen last night,
And gave the citizens a fright.
The first report's from Taval Zane.
Go speak to him and find this bane.
And if you haven't yet gone in,
There's one-room lodging at the inn.
Good day. The wolf report was yours?
You've chosen, too, to stay indoors
Where it's safe. Yes, that was me
Who saw the wolf out by the tree.
I ran inside and closed the door
Before the wolf could do much more.
Later, when I dared peek out,
Towards the scribe it went about.
Jana's usually there, but I've
Doubts that she is still alive.
Last night, a rabid wolf was here
Jana, did you see it near?
I did not, but you should check
JUst to the north, that wooden wreck.
When I arrived, I saw that cart
Looked like it was torn apart.
Aha! Some tracks lead to the east
And soon I've found the rabid beast.
It growls and charges from ahead,
But very soon, the wolf is dead.
To Davyn, with some news for him:
You've helped, although the task was grim.
Aelis then asks what you did.
I tracked a wolf and then got rid
Of it. No, no, with more detail,
Or else the ritual will fail.
He asked me how his tribute was,
And sought a task. He said he does
Have a task he'd give to me:
Put the wolf out of its misery.
And how did this task make you feel?
Sad? Or scared? With eager steel?
All these feelings began to dawn.
Interesting. Please carry on.
He then sent me to the inn
Where Taval was afraid within.
Did you comfort Mr Zane?
Yes, I helped his fear to wane.
Then Jana's often by the shop,
So she became my second stop.
She hadn't seen it, wasn't worried,
But pointed out a cart. I hurried
Over to see goods and sacks
Rummaged through, and found some tracks.
Were you nervous or on edge?
A bit. Continue. On the ledge,
In the hills I found the beast
It leapt at me - then was deceased.
Now that it's done, have you regret?
Nature kills when there's a threat.
Most interesting. I'm now inspired
To write the tribute that's required.
The last component's all around:
Woodsun flowers must be found.
You got the flowers? Here they are.
Take it to Davyn. It's come far.
How goes your tribute? It's not mine.
You and Aelis made this sign.
It would show great disrespect
To Ulinir if I elect
To place this tribute on his grave.
I would not wish to so behave.
He was worthy, though you didn't know
Ulinir. Yes, I will go.
The Forest Ruins have a river,
Its end is where you will deliver
This tribute which you have acquired.
May others also be inspired
By the friendship you have shown,
And may see how much you've grown.
The grave is found, the tribute placed:
May his memory never be erased.
Ilaen Lilac stands nearby
And speaks about the earth and sky.
If we don't work to save this land,
No one else will raise a hand.
With what problems are you so in tune?
If you've not felt it, you will, soon.
The movement, interest, deaths quite strange,
There's been a most alarming change.
Though there are signs of this new threat,
The Guard has not shown interest yet.
Deer are slain at such a rate,
Some say it's wolves that just predate.
A few, but most, definitely not
For these deer are left to rot.
Their wounds seem like from arrow fire,
But no clues I could acquire.
You've returned from your patrol
This arrow was made by a gnoll.
Take this arrow to Germain,
Maybe now it will be plain.
Citizen, what have you brought?
I hope that isn't what I thought.
The gnolls are likely on the move,
Although one arrow doesn't prove
Enough to spur the city. I'm
Sure the proof will come, in time.
I'm sure this problem will be won,
Thank you again for all you've done.

1. In Butcherblock there is a game
But elsewhere's one that is the same
Those who lived there left behind
The colours you will need to find.









2. Distracted by their noisy yap
You ran into their hidden trap
And fell straight down, right in their lap
Where all you'll find is naught but scrap.








3. When keeping watch upon the plain
They need some shelter from the rain
Inside, the furnishings are stark
But there's a place to leave your mark
Whether brawler, cleric, bard,
Or summoner - go see the guard!






4. Near the city, home to man,
Her enemies prepare their plan.
Though dangerous, they are the least,
But with them lies an ancient beast.
It rises up, as to appear
About to strike - but do not fear!
Wander right into its head
It cannot eat, for it lies dead.
But in case you can't be sure,
Its weapons you should go secure.







5. In Stonebrunt Highlands, way upstairs
You'll find Soren, with his wares
But they are also down below
And that is where you need to go.
Then once you have what can be worn
Bring back, too, a globe of corn
But careful not to lose your breath
When hurrying from Life to Death.









6. Beneath the trees you'll find a shop
With what you'll need to bring.
So hurry there and make a stop
It holds most anything.









7. Hungry, wubbly cubes
I must not harm you at all
So I will hug you.









8. It used to go into the tea
Till Ironforge said no.
So when this treasure's now obtained
To vendors it must go.







9. They lost their home and lost their king
But some is left - there's still one thing
Though it's in danger from the fight
And so it must be moved tonight.
But an enchantment keeps it there
Except for one - Stormhammer's heir.
Once the magic has been broken
This replica will be your token.

THE CLUES
------------------








1. After working in the mine
They head below so they can dine
Do their recipes taste right,
Or would they give the biggest fright?
Bring a jug straight back to town
Of what they use to wash it down.









2. When helping out the dancing queen
Bright, shiny things will make her seen
New dresses, though, have all been sold
But this might keep away the cold.







3. At first, there's never any glamour
But if you only had a hammer
You'd craft things powerful and grand,
The best goods found in any land
Yet here is where you must begin,
Stuck with only lead and tin
Before book, chair, sword, cake, or jewel
You need to grab a sack of fuel.








4. All help celebrate our feast,
Whether fighter, mage, or priest
Decorations they helped raise,
Far above our city's ways
Take one and place it your pack.
(Afterwards we'll put it back.)









5. Those who keep their Lady's book
Most likely do not want to look
At what their faces now display
So take it, take it far away!





6. An erudite with riddles four
Once stood nearby the Coldwind shore
And after listening to his voice
Of calling points I'd have a choice
When fire, water, earth, and air
Had been combined in graven ware.
Those without reason are alarmed
But have no fear, you won't be harmed
A place you've seen, yet experienced not
Rise above and strike while the iron is hot!
When you've the answer to these two,
You'll know just what you need to do.









7. The Qeynos Guard, with gnollish plans,
Was sent out on alerts:
Go take away their piled junk
And hit them where it hurts.







8. Though Foster's home they did erase
He's still tending to his face
But getting what he wants is hard
It seems there has sprung up a guard
You'll need to go see them removed
So Foster's skin may be improved.
(But not the ones in metal, mind,
You need to bring another kind.)








9. I bid you welcome! Come, sit down!
Enjoy a pint! Don't mind the frown
On the one who pours the drink
He's harmless, and he'll sell, I think.
But once you've drunk up all the beer,
You might need this to help you steer.









10. Careful when this one you seek
Don't place your hand within its beak
And though it's really made of bone,
It sounds like it's as hard as stone.









11. Friendly, wubbly cubes
You're here with us once again!
Have a great big hug!

THE CLUES
------------------









1. Friendly wubbly cubes
Below in your tiny room
You're so cute to hug.







2. A tale was told, by one unknown,
Who fought against our king.
Into prison she was thrown,
To await the gallows' sting
But unafraid, for she believed
She'd rise with leader Kane.
For this tale to be retrieved,
Find what must last be slain.








3. Sometimes you'll need to take a stroll
To help those who are on patrol
But if you cannot find the route
Any thought of aid is moot
I've got it! For this seems quite smart
Perhaps his locker's where to start.






4. He gave his life in sacrifice
But now, well, things are not so nice
His fortune has been much reversed
When those he swore to serve were cursed
The one who ordered his employ
Is now the one he must destroy
But, perhaps, before you can
You should first draw up a plan
You'll find an implement nearby
So that these schemes won't go awry.








5. It seems some creatures have been shipped
But soon got loose within the crypt
Should they be, perhaps, destroyed?
No! The rules say MUST AVOID!
Besides, they're really much too cute
So go and take their box for loot.








6. Who would be helping those who hunt?
I must seek, and then confront
The ones who are providing aid
Qeynos must not be betrayed.
But before I can accuse
Perhaps the goods will hold some clues.








7. Your group's survival oft depends
On being made of trusty friends
And if a hall might be your goal
You'll need to stop by and enrol
You might sign up, but what needs down?
A lovely portrait of the town.






8. 'Twas the night before Frostfell, and out on      the ice
All the elves were preparing, with goblins      (they're nice).
To Freeport! To Haven! To Kelethin's trees!
To Neriak! Gorowyn, over the seas!
We fly into Qeynos, we fly to the dock,
We fly to the Harbor and take down...
Well, not anymore. But you need to.









9. Hungry wubbly cubes
I know you don't eat your friends
So I will hug you.






10. There was a story of a clown
Who meddled in the ways of town
And when his time had come at last,
Together were his bones amassed
But he was treated with disdain,
For there his bones did not remain
Defiled like this isn't right,
He and his home must reunite
But I'll not carry skull and limb
Instead I'll bring his home to him.









11. Festive wubbly cubes
Keeeping nasty owlbears out
We shall come hug you.

Three clues for adventures in Qeynos Hills,
Four within the city standing bright,
Two where novices may hone their skills,
Three where lie those fallen from life's light.
Go begin your searching where amusement
    fills.
One clue in gnollish halls, one clue where
    bones creep,
One clue where thunder calls, and one clue
    in the knights' keep.
Then return your treasures where
    amusement fills.







1. I yearn for figs and sycamore,
Black walnut and raw thyme,
But I have searched wood, plain and shore
And they no longer climb
As once they did, in days of yore,
When they were in their prime.
So gather what, from grassy floor,
I'll eat, but cannot rhyme.








2. One den of treasure, one of food
Some seek among the canine brood.
The third is where they rest their head
Don't wake them, or your face they'll shred
If you don't quickly flee aloft
Right after you get something soft.









3. The cubes down here must not be harmed
The rats, that is less so.
Their queen lurks here, don't be alarmed
Just bring one from below.








4. They work away (I know not why)
For homes for refugees
That Qeynos guards no longer pry,
A-drifting, from the seas.
Get one of what, with sweat and cry,
They from the hill did ease.









5. The Qeynos Guard, with gnollish plans,
Was sent out on alerts:
Go take away their piled junk
And hit them where it hurts.









6. Outside their hive they lurk, over the stair
Don't mind the smell of undead in the air
One deadly shell get (or two, I don't care)









7. O sweet, wubbly cubes!
Friendliest in all Norrath!
I shall come hug you!








8. A shard of bone I came to own
In days gone by
From ones like these near bluish seas
That scurry, spry,
Where charter torn that lies forlorn
A rogue might spy.









9. It's neat what else that you can do
With Foster's slimy haul.
Instead of cutting out their glands
Just stick them on the wall!









10. We used to get from Saberteeth
The spit we'd use to brew.
Alas! those days, they are no more
But now there's purple stew!









11. Wubbly and hungry!
I better bring some cookies
When I come hug you.









12. A fight! A fight has broken out!
We should be safe here from the guard.
But no, I hear the soldiers shout
I'll leave my drink (but take a card).









13. Although the Overlord we spurn,
About his city we should learn
And what is found inside the tome
That's given to whom Freeport's home.









14. O woe! the stone! it sqwisheth not!
The water's far too clean!
So when thou takest some of it
It lesseneth the sheen.








15. If one might sit and smoosh a cube
(WHICH YOU SHOULD NEVER DO!)
It might look quite a bit like these
That slide along and through
The paths where undead creatures lurk
From whence you'll carry two.




16. An erudite with riddles four
Once stood nearby the Coldwind shore
And after listening to his voice
Of calling points I'd have a choice
When fire, water, earth, and air
Had been combined in graven ware.
Essential to all those who live
Is what you must collect and give.
Clear, dark, or weak, or strong
Is what you'll need to take along.
It gives the land its shape and form
Both slowly and by sudden storm.
Near where once worked a small brass key
You'll find the answer to these three.

THE CLUES
------------------








1. Beneath the city, they're a pest:
At killing stuffs, you are the best!
Make dead gone these horrid beasts
In Norrathland they must decrease!
Bring one back - oh, one more thing,
Be sure to also splat their king.




2. Long ago, a mysterious mage
Lived within the Combine Age
Today we know about his tale
From scrolls found in a keg for ale.
Solving conundrums was his aim,
He mastered next the Yellow Flame
Not telling much of later acts,
The scrolls describe his artefacts:
Wondrous stories in that keg,
Of crystal rabbit, cup, and egg.
But now, it seems, this story's lost,
Around the land its pages tossed
Seek out where they've been dispersed
Go bring back what has the first.





3. Many rescued on the seas
Have come ashore as refugees
But many are not seen again:
They hide within, and then are slain
Their journey should not be so hard
And so this task falls to the guard
Slay their killers, option one -
Or another plan which could be done:
Perhaps they wouldn't want to be
Within a place where they can't see
Maybe we'll avert this plight
If the halls were not so bright.






4. Many creatures lurk below
My studies have a problem, though.
I'm studying the ones about,
How they compare to those without.
All my specimens have fled
Much easier if they were dead.
But I am not the fighting sort,
For you this work would be quite short.
Today, though, that is not your role
What you need is the control.






5. Above the shop, there is an elf
Who'll cut your hair for fees
But long ago, in former times,
His other goods held keys.
Without the washes, resins, oils
And tempers made from these
There was nothing to be made
All crafting would just freeze.
For this task, choose carefully:
You need the wax of bees.







6. If you need the finest hops
They won't be found in any shops
You will have to take a trip
And once you're there, will give a tip.
Except today, she isn't here
Since it is not that time of year
No farmer's there who will impede
Your task to bring back where they feed.









7. Those who have the expertise
Build what's needed for the seas
There you'll find upon the wall
What might help you not to fall.






8. An erudite with riddles four
Once stood nearby the Coldwind shore
And after listening to his voice
Of calling points I'd have a choice
When fire, water, earth, and air
Had been combined in graven ware.
Examine what surrounds us all,
Aloft, hold up the vessel, tall
Where there is more, it seems like less
Revel in its nothingness.









9. Festive wubbly cubes
Keeping us safe from owlbears
We shall give you hugs.

1. There are those out spreading hate
And they've been busy, as of late
We've tracked them down, found out their
   plan
But they're not here. It seems they ran.
Yet nearby there is a jar.
Is this a clue? It seems bizarre.








2. Though not the answer to this clue,
In their camp is purple stew.
But getting there could be quite hard
Since they have towers for their guard.
It's not a place they need to be
Go take this so they cannot see.








3. For those who turned to ways of good,
Through bats and owlbears in the wood
They set their sights, in days of old,
On one that many called the Cold.
But now he's gone. He is no more.
So grab the food that's there in store.









4. Hug the friendly cubes!
This would make a great guildhall
They'd have their own room.








5. On this, perhaps, you'd wipe your feet
When scribing scrolls or cooking meat.
They once were found in every town
Now all but one have been closed down
Still fully stocked, no need to roam -
But empty - everyone's at home.





6. The erudites and kerra fought,
But now they work as one.
And if they're injured in their fight,
For potions they might run.
It's fortunate there is a shop
That's just outside the gate
And there is where you'll need to go,
There items do await.
But potions you cannot bring back,
The guards won't let you in.
Instead, take both from on the floor
If you would like to win.
7. From the sea they fished us out,
Adventurers, then mage or scout,
Or fighter, or not in the least,
Some became a healing priest.
We, now back upon dry land,
Chose the Queen or Lucan's band,
Having learned to swing a sword,
Cast a spell, and craft a board,
We fought some goblins with the guards,
Not yet crusaders, shamans, bards,
Put undead back in the grave,
And evil scheming in a cave.
Explored dark woods and undersea,
Found the gnome his whatsits three,
(Later giant hawk or ooze,
Merchants selling special booze,
Goblin tree and mole rat's bark,
Vicious octopus or shark)
Finally aboard their boat,
To Freeport walls or Qeynos moat
Though not allowed within the gate,
For one more quest did then await.
The guards would not yet let us in
Since we were not a citizen.
Off to the sunken city street,
Or to the caves or bog of peat,
Then back, now having passed the test
For these two cities, Norrath's best.
Some would adventure on the plain
With orcs as foes, an endless bane,
While others fought the gnolls for good,
By Fippy's Hill and Archer Wood.
And as they travelled all around
They found that notes with tasks abound
For snakes and lizards, mites and rats,
Manta rays and sonic bats.
Then once fulfilled, now feeling bold,
They turned the order in for gold,
So stop on by and choose a task
From in between the crate and cask
As thanks for all the skills they taught,
And did it in the way they ought.








8. It seems that someone tried to steal,
Perhaps foul magic needs them real?
But I don't see the thief about
And yet, they almost made it out
(Later we'll bring back the chest
And return them to their rest.)








9. If you come and take a peek
Be very careful when you sneak.
One who failed is now quite dead -
You'll see the axe atop his head.
In and out you'll have to slink
But if you make it, take a drink.








10. First (or last?) there was the wine
And then some goggles, next in line
A deck of cards, marked for the cheat
But hat does not make this complete.
For what you need, here last of all:
The vase nearby that's on the wall.









11. It's neat what else that you can do
With Foster's slimy haul.
Instead of cutting out their glands
Just stick them on the wall!

1. From northern lands to Qeynos Hills
A traveller made the trek
But on one journey, written down,
He met with naught but wreck
Absent were the usual guards
His wolf chased for a lark,
No sound was heard within the pits
Then rumbling in the dark
Thrown to the ground, the wolf ran off
And this time not for sport,
Her terror echoed, then a roar -
Her whimpers were cut short
Our traveller knew not where to turn
For gone was solid ground
But for a ledge up near the roof
He, too, would have been drowned
His tale survives, but not intact
Did it come to this age
To make it whole, I must go hunt
I'll start with the first page.









2. A tragic tale of an attack
I shall avenge, and pay them back
All remaining from this strife
Is this engraving of his life.









3. There were likely those who came
To watch some win, or lose a game
Where they were, there's still a trace
To be found within this space.







4. Twelve times a year the leaves are here
But that won't be today
You need not to search a lot
For they aren't far away
Though leaves are gone, to gaze upon
Them, they can still be seen
Moving round, they do abound
Though looking rather green.








5. When every letter had been found,
Some above, some underground
When you return, it will be clear
What is this? He isn't here?
But wherever could he hide?
Perhaps he could be trapped inside?









6. Crafting's what you're here to learn
So careful not to let them burn
When you've made the things to eat
You can have a tasty treat.









7. Once those on the other side
Had an extra tax applied
Anything could be in here,
From furniture to books or gear.









8. Festive wubbly cubes
We have great big hugs for you
Wubbaing above.

1. You can train, or you can fight
(Or meditate outside at night)
But win or lose, you'll be their guest
Find something that will give you rest.









2. They trap the ones that live in here
And other things, as well.
Bring back an egg before they hatch
Try not to mind the smell.






3. Above the shop, there is an elf
Who'll cut your hair for fees
But long ago, in former times,
His other goods held keys.
Without the washes, resins, oils
And tempers made from these
There was nothing to be made
All crafting would just freeze.
For this task, choose carefully:
You need the wax of bees.









4. Although long dead, they still create
Those who patrol and those who wait.
They enchant what can be found
Stored within the broken ground.








5. There was a ship that sailed the sea
It once was one, but now is three.
(But not the ship that brought us here:
It still is one, but gone, I fear.)
I think you should go take a look
For there could be a long-lost book.







6. A tale was told, by one unknown,
Who fought against our king.
Into prison she was thrown,
To await the gallows' sting
But unafraid, for she believed
She'd rise with leader Kane.
For this tale to be retrieved,
Find what must first be slain.









7. Friendly, wubbly cubes
Wubbaing inside your room
I must hug you all!









8. We used to put their spit in tea
This we no longer do.
Instead, their camp that's near the gate
Will give us purple stew.

THE CLUES
------------------





1. This mage is in a nasty mood
Does he have to be so rude?
There are rumours he has heard
So into action he was spurred
His associate, at any rate,
In the hills is where he'll wait
Magic knowledge has been found
Many books and tomes abound
You could go in, and might not die
Perhaps you'll show it's not a lie
He'll pay if you can find the place
I'll show him and bring a whole case!








2. While travelling away from home
I met a curious assistant gnome
He asked me for a jug of brew
And I wondered if it's true
Are they really making beer?
Could a brewery be here?







3. It used to be, when paid in change
Something happened that was strange
You'd find yourself so loaded down
That you could barely crawl to town
If you sold your things next door
A surprise might be in store
Perhaps I'll keep a faster gait
If I could only check the weight.






4. Many others live within,
From places such as Kelethin
But not all visitors are kind
Some are here with evil mind
A threat from an assassin looms
Perhaps he'll be lured out with blooms
But in supply these will be short
If you are not the winged sort
If this plot was not for you,
Instead of blooms, a vine will do.








5. After you've arrived by ship
There are things you must equip
Things for your adventure need,
To store, and see, and drink, and feed
But if one flask is much too small,
Behind is one that's standing tall.








6. In Starcrest Commune was a treat
Although it doesn't sound so sweet
Everyone just loved them here
But ingredients are gone, I fear
You could get what we need. You're strong.
I haven't had them in so long.






7. Here is where you'd make the trek
To travel to the isle of Zek
But though the old routes are no more
There are still ways to leave this shore
While awaiting Butcherblock
I thought I'd rest here, and take stock
But what's nearby is much too loud
And it's looking much too proud
I must stop its incessant whine
Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine! Mine!









8. Festive wubbly cubes
Guarding us from up above
Here are hugs for you.

1. Once the plants were all around,
Nearby, a few can still be found.
The next you'll find might not have squid,
Near one of three is where it's hid.
The other sunken ale, of course,
Tastes much better from the source.
Instead of water far too clean,
Find some with a much lesser sheen.
Retrieve what once was gathered twice,
Free stuff's always really nice.
Your team want Festival acclaim?
Find remnants of the cheated game.
And if you do not want to lose,
Bring back, alive, what ate the clues.
'Twas thought the first, it was the third,
Don't eat it, for it's most absurd.
Though rare, it once was melted down,
To hide the box to curse the town.
Lots of junk - at last, a note!
Could there be something else they wrote?
Before the hunt today may cease,
You'll need to find the final piece.

The Willow Wood
Welcome to the Willow Wood!
An eager learner, that is good.
Speak with Davyn, he's the same,
And learn Feir'Dal's not just a name.
Offer help - he's just ahead -
And then return with what is said.
Good day to you. And you, as well.
I'm busy, though. My thoughts propel
Me everywhere. I'm quite distracted,
And my focus is impacted.
It must be from some inner distress,
But my dear friend's tribute can't progress.
Your help I most appreciate,
See Aelis. She will help create.
I knew that he'd accept your aid.
Do you know why a tribute's made?
You will learn. It will grow clear.
Reverence for something dear,
Friends or family, nature, too,
Crafting tributes is what I do.
I help the one who comes to ask
Make something worthy for his task.
We'll build not just a physical shell,
But metaphysical as well.
It's strange that he does not desire
To take more part or to acquire
The things we need. But as he please.
First Dewdrop leaves. You'll gather these.
The quality can be great or scant,
Each must be from a different plant.
Here are the leaves. What's next to do?
The tribute needs a task from you.
It's Davyn's tribute, after all,
So do it for him - grand or small.
Is my tribute finished yet?
A task for you must now be met.
That's funny, since you're doing one.
What sort of task must now be done?
It could be anything you need.
I've one, though dangerous, indeed.
I'll try. A wolf was seen last night,
And gave the citizens a fright.
The first report's from Taval Zane.
Go speak to him and find this bane.
And if you haven't yet gone in,
There's one-room lodging at the inn.
Good day. The wolf report was yours?
You've chosen, too, to stay indoors
Where it's safe. Yes, that was me
Who saw the wolf out by the tree.
I ran inside and closed the door
Before the wolf could do much more.
Later, when I dared peek out,
Towards the scribe it went about.
Jana's usually there, but I've
Doubts that she is still alive.
Last night, a rabid wolf was here
Jana, did you see it near?
I did not, but you should check
JUst to the north, that wooden wreck.
When I arrived, I saw that cart
Looked like it was torn apart.
Aha! Some tracks lead to the east
And soon I've found the rabid beast.
It growls and charges from ahead,
But very soon, the wolf is dead.
To Davyn, with some news for him:
You've helped, although the task was grim.
Aelis then asks what you did.
I tracked a wolf and then got rid
Of it. No, no, with more detail,
Or else the ritual will fail.
He asked me how his tribute was,
And sought a task. He said he does
Have a task he'd give to me:
Put the wolf out of its misery.
And how did this task make you feel?
Sad? Or scared? With eager steel?
All these feelings began to dawn.
Interesting. Please carry on.
He then sent me to the inn
Where Taval was afraid within.
Did you comfort Mr Zane?
Yes, I helped his fear to wane.
Then Jana's often by the shop,
So she became my second stop.
She hadn't seen it, wasn't worried,
But pointed out a cart. I hurried
Over to see goods and sacks
Rummaged through, and found some tracks.
Were you nervous or on edge?
A bit. Continue. On the ledge,
In the hills I found the beast
It leapt at me - then was deceased.
Now that it's done, have you regret?
Nature kills when there's a threat.
Most interesting. I'm now inspired
To write the tribute that's required.
The last component's all around:
Woodsun flowers must be found.
You got the flowers? Here they are.
Take it to Davyn. It's come far.
How goes your tribute? It's not mine.
You and Aelis made this sign.
It would show great disrespect
To Ulinir if I elect
To place this tribute on his grave.
I would not wish to so behave.
He was worthy, though you didn't know
Ulinir. Yes, I will go.
The Forest Ruins have a river,
Its end is where you will deliver
This tribute which you have acquired.
May others also be inspired
By the friendship you have shown,
And may see how much you've grown.
The grave is found, the tribute placed:
May his memory never be erased.
Ilaen Lilac stands nearby
And speaks about the earth and sky.
If we don't work to save this land,
No one else will raise a hand.
With what problems are you so in tune?
If you've not felt it, you will, soon.
The movement, interest, deaths quite strange,
There's been a most alarming change.
Though there are signs of this new threat,
The Guard has not shown interest yet.
Deer are slain at such a rate,
Some say it's wolves that just predate.
A few, but most, definitely not
For these deer are left to rot.
Their wounds seem like from arrow fire,
But no clues I could acquire.
You've returned from your patrol
This arrow was made by a gnoll.
Take this arrow to Germain,
Maybe now it will be plain.
Citizen, what have you brought?
I hope that isn't what I thought.
The gnolls are likely on the move,
Although one arrow doesn't prove
Enough to spur the city. I'm
Sure the proof will come, in time.
I'm sure this problem will be won,
Thank you again for all you've done.

Adventurers, then mage or scout,
Or fighter, or not in the least,
Some became a healing priest.
We, now back upon dry land,
Chose the Queen or Lucan's band,
Having learned to swing a sword,
Cast a spell, and craft a board,
We fought some goblins with the guards,
Not yet crusaders, shamans, bards,
Put undead back in the grave,
And evil scheming in a cave.
Explored dark woods and undersea,
Found the gnome his whatsits three,
(Later giant hawk or ooze,
Merchants selling special booze,
Goblin tree and mole rat's bark,
Vicious octopus or shark)
Finally aboard their boat,

To Freeport walls or Qeynos moat
Though not allowed within the gate,
For one more quest did then await.
The guards would not yet let us in
Since we were not a citizen.
Off to the sunken city street,
Or to the caves or bog of peat,
Then back, now having passed the test
For these two cities, Norrath's best.
Some would adventure on the plain
With orcs as foes, an endless bane,
While others fought the gnolls for good,
By Fippy's Hill and Archer Wood.
And as they travelled all around
They found that notes with tasks abound
For snakes and lizards, mites and rats,
Manta rays and sonic bats.
Then once fulfilled, now feeling bold,
They turned the order in for gold,

So stop on by and choose a task
From in between the crate and cask
As thanks for all the skills they taught,
And did it in the way they ought.

THE CLUES
------------------








1. Hope they they don't eat your head
While guarding tombs that hold the dead
And keep an eye out for the seer,
Who may, or who may not, be here
But either way, you must be smart
To dodge the guards and get the art.









2. Friendly, wubbly cubes
Wubbaing down in your room
Waiting to hug us.








3. Try catching these, if that's your wish,
To make a very tasty dish
You'll see them, while you are about,
Delicious, scrumptious, yummy trout
A pole, though, isn't needed here
Use axe, or sword, or mace, or spear.







4. In Stonebrunt Highlands, way upstairs
You'll find Soren, with his wares
But they are also down below
And that is where you need to go.
Then once you have what can be worn
Bring back, too, a globe of corn
But careful not to lose your breath
When hurrying from Life to Death.





5. An erudite with riddles four
Once stood nearby the Coldwind shore
And after listening to his voice
Of calling points I'd have a choice
When fire, water, earth, and air
Had been combined in graven ware.
With what the vessel must be filled,
Take care that none of it is spilled
With it, someday, you will be one
Collect it, and your task is done
Carefully you need to tread,
For home is where this road has led.








6. The perfect, pointy, rocky shard
Must be a shape that isn't marred
But seeking one to make a knife
Brings tears, frustration, lots of strife
Will you find the one today?
Perhaps the next one that you slay...









7. For a frog or for a toad
These might make a leafy road
But bigger folks, like elves or men
Would sink before they could begin.





8. Inside a shop there is a gnome
Who's seeking one to share his home
And when he had been interviewed:
He likes to tinker, and good food
But where would one begin to look,
For his match who likes to cook?
Where is it that she might lurk?
Perhaps where she can do this work.
Once there, you'll find that she's away,
Since now is not that holiday.
She's likely made him many treats,
While here, retrieve yourself some eats.









9. Festive, wubbly cubes
Keeping owlbears far away
Hugs for ones so cute!

1. Outside the city home to man
Enemies prepare their plan
Clues discovered here and there
Eventually lead to their lair
Within await the Qeynos guard
With yet more tasks (but not too hard)
Of which, completed, or cut short
They still must file their report
But if you take this on the run
Their reports cannot be done.








2. Long ago, upon the plain
Where shrubs and fungus used to reign
Nothing else would be around
Except these, crawling on the ground
Retrieve a shimmery, verdant shell
(The entire thing will do, as well.)








3. Not Faydwer, nor the Great Divide
Is where this answer will abide
Although the place that has this clue
Sounds like it's named for both these two
And though it does not show the lands
It still will spin beneath your hands.







4. If you lived among the good
In Commune, Hamlet, Yard, or Wood,
You might have been left unaware
That your room was no longer there!
You had to run all over town
Before you finally tracked it down
All that looking made you think,
So go downstairs and grab a drink!









5. These don't belong upon my hat!
Don't listen to Kardell.
What used to hear, instead bring back.
They're flying near the bell.







6. If this answer's what you wish,
You might need to find a fish
And then with your newfound key
You'll know where you need to be
Travel there, and take a look
At the model, and the book
But since it isn't very bright
While you're there, pick up a light.









7. Festive, wubbly cubes
Here to celebrate with us
Have some great big hugs!
