Lore & Dialog
Micon Stuvis the Barkeep tells you, "Say what you will about the invaders, but they do have fascinating tales to tell."
Micon Stuvis the Barkeep tells you, "It's ironic... I advised Bachus to move here for her safety, and then this happened."
Bachus Flufens tells you, "Woe is me! As if it were not bad enough that I was driven out of my farm to the west by the Hea, now Varicci has taken over my town! Fortunately Micon and I are safe, but I must say that it has made it very difficult to continue my work."
Bachus Flufens tells you, "Have you heard of my work? I am researching rumors of a Tumerok artifact, of which the few hints I have discovered are quite unbelievable. They must hold that relic in high esteem indeed. A most fanciful folk, I must say! I heard that it is a legendary spear that they dismantled and enshrined in two separate caverns on the island. It once belonged to a warrior from an opposite faction, I believe. He tried to persuade them back to traditional ways, but they would have none of it. Somehow they dispatched him but retained his spear...which is supposed to have some sort of magical, "living" properties to it. I'm not quite sure what to believe."
Bachus Flufens tells you, "Perhaps the answer could be found in the caverns to the northwest along the shore. Try the area around 40.2N 84.7W --at least that's where I saw the Tumeroks heading last. Beware, friend--it's quite likely to be well guarded. I'd go myself, but I must catch up on my journal today. If you would like to read it, here are a few pages that I wrote the other day."
Bachus Flufens gives you Bachus Flufen's Journal.
You give Bachus Flufens Tumerok Spear.
Bachus Flufens examines the spear intensely.
Bachus Flufens tells you, "Ah, so there was something to their story after all...what an interesting find! But look here...don't these slots along this side suggest that it is missing a part? I wonder if it lies over in the caves directly to the northeast? For the past season I've been able to watch many Tumerok comings and goings here from my front porch. If you were to bring me back the object in its entirety, I'm sure I could reward you."
Bachus Flufens gives you Tumerok Spear.
You give Bachus Flufens Wooden Tumerok Figurine.
Bachus squints carefully at the figurine.
Bachus Flufens tells you, "I have never seen an artifact such as this before...some sort of Tumerok figurine? Ah...but it seems as if it is not in its entirety? Perhaps it should be married to another piece? If you bring me back the completed artifact, I will surely reward you!"
Bachus Flufens gives you Wooden Tumerok Figurine.
The figurine and the spear fit together perfectly.
You give Bachus Flufens Aun Tanua's War Taiaha.
Bachus gingerly lifts the weapon from your grasp and weighs it in her hands.
Bachus Flufens tells you, "A Tumerok War Taiaha! One of the first examples of Tumerok war craft I have ever seen. I must send this on to Aliester--he will be delighted to further his research on Tumerok culture. I thank you!"
You've earned 411,000 experience.
Bachus Flufens gives you Peerless Healing Kit.
Bachus Flufens gives you 2 Copper Peas.
Bachus tells you, "So you're back, [Character Name]. It's good to see that you haven't been dragged off like some of the folks who live here on the island. Things have been so trying of late, I haven't had the chance to do any work. Come back in a week and I may have some work for you."
Retired Text
Lark Grifanna the Barkeep tells you, "Take care as you travel in this area. Bachus tells me that the Tumeroks
seem to be engaged in some strange feud, and it'd probably be best if you didn't get yourself tangled up in it."
Lark Grifanna the Barkeep tells you, "These are interesting times indeed...if only Brachus were here to embroider a pretty tale for us! Too bad she's off on another wild goose chase again -- tracking down a spear, she says. She might be down by the western shore... that's where her house is, in any case."
Micon Stuvis the Barkeep tells you, "With all the adventurers coming through Redspire, I've certainly heard a lot of interesting tales."
Micon Stuvis the Barkeep tells you, "Come back whenever you have the time, traveler. I'm always up for a bit of gossip. Why, even the other day Bachus Flufens, came by and told me quite the tall tale about some Tumerok Warrior and his 'living' spear... I know I should have cut her off sooner, but you know... she probably doesn't have too many amusements over there on the western shore..."
Bachus Flufens tells you, "A visitor! I do not often get many visitors to my modest homestead. Did Micon or Lark tell you that I've been spending time with the Tumeroks? A most fanciful folk, I must say! Why, just the other day one of the Hea told me about a legendary spear they dismantled and enshrined in two separate parts of the island. It once belonged to a warrior from an opposite faction, I believe. He tried to persuade them back to traditional ways, but they would have none of it. Somehow they dispatched him but retained his spear... which is supposed to have some sort of magical, 'living' properties to it. I'm not quite sure what to believe."
Bachus Flufens tells you, "Perhaps the answer could be found in the caverns to the northwest along the shore. Try the area around 44 North, 87 West -- at least that's where I saw my new Tumerok aquaintances heading last. Beware, friend -- it sounds as if they held this artifact in high esteem, and it's quite likely to be well guarded. I'd go myself, but I must catch up on my journal today."
