789th Order Dustman Bo Zu fears that not all of his peers share an appreciation for slopwork and subterfuge.

Steps

Journal

  • Showing once again that he will spare no effort in shirking honest work, 789th Order Dustman Bo Zu has padded his sack with rubbish and refuse to meet his daily mining quota. None the wiser, the 411th Order plans to smelt the 789th's yield in their furnace, and Bo Zu fears that his ingenuity will not be well received. At Bo Zu's request, consult with acolyte Ba Go, that you might lay waste to the furnace before the dustman's duplicity comes to light.
  • Ever eager to see destruction and disorder arise around him, Ba Go furnishes you with a bomb of considerable explosive power, along with instructions to carry it to your target-- the 411th Order's furnace in the vicinity of Iron Lake-- with all haste.
  • Fail to complete your object in the alloted span of time, and the limpet bomb will detonate, causing damage to you in the process.
  • The 411th's furnace is no more, and Bo Zu's secret remains safe for another day. Search the embers that you might return the bomb core to its creator, though you have a suspicion the spirited fireball will not come quietly...
  • You have successfully quelled the limpet bomb's temper and extracted its core. Return it to Ba Go at the 789th Order Dig, with the futile hope that his future creations will not prove so hot to handle.
  • Delighted to hear that his prized creation was every ilm as destructive as he had foreseen, Ba Go resolves to redouble his efforts in building bombs of even greater destructive power. For better or for worse, share the news of your success with Bo Zu.
  • Bo Zu breathes a sigh of relief, your efforts having ensured that his chicanery will go undetected and unpunished. Convinced that any effort to extol the virtues of honest labor would fall upon deaf ears, you take your leave, hoping against hope that the dawdling dustman's next imposition on your services will be a more constructive one...

Dialogue

Accepting the quest

789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: Shiny metals are not easy to find─no, no, hide from Bo Zu's pick, they do. When I tire of working, I fill my sack with rocks and rubble instead. Does inspector notice? Not until Bo Zu is far away─far, far in the distance. Yes, Bo Zu is sharp like that─smart, quick, sharp.
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: 411th Order metalworkers are not so sharp. No, no, they are dull indeed. They would smelt my ore in their furnace. Do they not realize the perils of such an action─the dangers, the risks, the perils?
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: No, no, their recklessness must be stopped─halted, disrupted, stopped─and now. Fortunately, Bo Zu knows exactly what must be done─precisely, specifically, exactly.
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: We must use Ba Go's beauties to make furnace go boom. That will teach the futility of expecting real work from Bo Zu─the pointlessness, the fruitlessness, the futility. Yes, yes, that will teach them to let Bo Zu be Bo Zu.

Speaking with 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go

789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Bo Zu would make furnace go boom, hide his trickery? Ba Go cares not for the dustman's fate─no, no, cares not at all─but needs no excuse for fiery fulminations. Yes, yes, Ba Go will help you.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Ba Go will introduce you to his most buxom beauty. Beautiful indeed she is, yes, if a bit testy─ill-tempered, irascible, testy.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: You would be wise to escort her to your destination with speed─haste, quickness, speed. Yes, yes─you will be wise, or you will be the one to go boom. Haha! Heaheaheahehahaha!
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: And your task does not end when the furnace blows its top─no, no, it has only begun. You must bring Ba Go's beauty back, bring back what remains of her─her essence, her soul, her core.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: But be forewarned─advised, cautioned, forewarned─Ba Go's beauties often have a mind of their own. Yes, yes, they do...
(System message) Transport the limpet bomb to the specified location at Iron Lake before it detonates.
(System message) You will have sixty seconds to complete the task. Should you fail, return to the starting location and begin anew.
(System message) Be wary of attacks from enemies, which will sap your strength. Should you fail to complete the task in time, the bomb will explode and you will suffer damage.
(Optional)
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Adventurer returns empty-handed? Yes, yes, he does? Adventurer would suffer same fate as Bo Zu? No, no, he would not? Then adventurer should retrace his steps─retread, repeat, retrace─and return with Ba Go's beauty.
(If another bomb is needed)
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Adventurer is looking ashen─dusty, smoldery, ashen. Ba Go's beauty went boom on adventurer? Yes, yes, she did? Haha! Heahehaheaehahaha! Ba Go will give adventurer another beauty, if adventurer would make more booms. Yes, yes, more booms!
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: You must bring Ba Go's beauty to your destination with speed─haste, quickness, speed. Yes, yes─you will go quickly, or you will go boom. Haha! Heaheaheahehahaha! 
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: But your task does not end when the furnace blows its top─no, no, it has only begun. You must bring Ba Go's beauty back, bring back what remains of her─her essence, her soul, her core. But be forewarned: she has a mind of her own. Yes, yes, she does.

Returning to 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go

789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Where is she? Yes, where is Ba Go's beauty?
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Ba Go's beauty returns─yes, yes, she does. Many booms were had, yes? Many shouts, many cries, many screams? 
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: And who are you again? You are who? Bo Zu's friend? Go back to Bo Zu, and tell him next time he bothers me, he will be the one to go boom. Heahehahehaehahaha!

Returning to 789th Order Dustman Bo Zu

789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: The 411th's furnace is no more? Bo Zu thanks you for your aid. You are a friend to slugs and slubbers everywhere─an ally, a patron, a friend. 
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: Yes, yes, Bo Zu can look forward to many, many days of rest─rest and relaxation. You will linger close by, yes─stay, sojourn, linger? Today is a happy day, happy indeed!
