Redolent Rose would like to assign you your first task as a weaver.

— In-game description


Rewards

Walkthrough

The game can never tell where you get your items from. NPC vendor or Market Board is fine. That said, some later crafts are UNTRADABLE, so you must make those yourself.

Steps

Journal

  • Redolent Rose would like to assign you your first task as a weaver.
  • Satisfied with your ability to hold the needle he gave you, Redolent Rose would now like to see if you can use it. He has tasked you with preparing a spindle of hempen yarn, for which you will require moko grass and lightning shards. While the grass can be purchased from the guild supplier, the shards must be obtained elsewhere. Craft a spindle of hempen yarn and deliver it to the guildmaster.
  • After a brief inspection, Redolent Rose acknowledges your ability to follow instructions. He bids you return for your next lesson once you have achieved basic proficiency.

Dialogue

Accepting the quest

Redolent Rose: Well, well...you look like you were born to hold one of those.
Redolent Rose: Even so, I suggest you keep it somewhere safe——especially when clambering over haystacks——as I shan't be issuing you another.
Redolent Rose: Now, you certainly look the part, but it remains to be seen if you can play it. I bid you craft me a spindle of hempen yarn.
Redolent Rose: A trifling task, yes? Well, I do hope you find it so.
Redolent Rose: ...Should it seem even remotely testing, you have no future at this guild.
Redolent Rose: To make hempen yarn, you will require moko grass and lightning shards. The former can be purchased from our own dear Gigima, the latter you will have to find for yourself.
Redolent Rose: That is all.

Delivering item to Redolent Rose

Redolent Rose: Gigima can provide the moko grass, but you must procure the lightning shards.
Redolent Rose: Or have you made your yarn already?

Cutscene

Redolent Rose: Well bless my soul! He/She can follow basic instructions!
Redolent Rose: It would seem you have grasped the fundamentals. Good boy/girl.
Redolent Rose: Yarn and cloth may be mere materials, but they must be crafted with no less care than a whole garment.
Redolent Rose: For though the finest garments are greater than the sum of their parts, their parts are invariably the finest.
Redolent Rose: Do remember this, [Player], as you continue your training.
Redolent Rose: Practice making yarn and other simple items, and return once you have attained a basic level of proficiency.
Redolent Rose: Tedious, I grant you, but necessary——and you did tell me you were ready to suffer.
