Journal
- The Vath keeneye is sniffing at a plant with silver leaves.
- ※The difficulty of this quest will be synced to your current level.
- Silver dew, known to ward off dragons with its distinctive scent, has become one of the guild's most popular commodities. Sales have continued to soar and to prevent exhausting their limited supply, the Vath have begun cultivating their own. While their fields have grown thick with these herbs, most of their plants do not have as potent a smell as those found in the wild. Sending an inferior product to their customers would tarnish the guild's good name, so it is decided each bundle must pass a test. The Vath keeneye hands you a bunch of these herbs and asks that you help them evaluate the quality of their plants. Take the silver dew and speak with the Vath kintamer.
- ※Please note that the difficulty of this quest has been synced to your current level. Furthermore, you may not proceed with a class or job that is different from when you accepted this quest.
- The Vath kintamer mumbles and grumbles about the current state of their crops as he helps you climb onto a kongamato and load it with your silver dew. While he is clearly disraught, he seems hopeful that you will bring back good news. Now that you are securely mounted, fly to the Smoldering Wastes and find a dragon to test your dew on.
- ※Simply by speaking with the Vath kintamer you will be able to mount the kongamato.
- The wyvern is disgusted by the silver dew and hurries to escape, but your job is still far from over. Follow him.
- You once again shower the defenseless dragon in silver dew spray. Upset that you have not only attacked him for a second time, but that the putrid stench has also invaded his mouth and eyes, he takes flight and disappears from sight. Pursue him to test your dew for the last time.
- As you douse him with the silver dew spray for a final time, the wyvern gasps for breath. In between fits of coughing he makes it very clear that should you follow him again, he will not hesitate to dismember you. Return to Loth ast Vath and report your success to the Vath keeneye.
- The Vath keeneye is very pleased to add another batch of silver dew to the crates being delivered to the Convictory. He tells you that he has high hopes for the future, believing that with time and effort they should one day be able to fill a majority of their orders with silver dew from their own fields.
Dialogue
Adventurer, our guild's silver dew is popular. So popular. <click> <click> Demand grows daily and our stores grow thin. Soon we will not have enough to light our censers, let alone send to the Convictors.
This worry has spurred us to cultivate our own. The fleshlings of Tailfeather have helped us to do so, but our plants are lacking in their most vital property: the scent which drives the dragons away!
If our incense is ineffective, our reputation will suffer! All our silver dew must be tested. There is much to be done. Mighty hunter, please take these bundles and evaluate their quality for us.
The best test subjects are dragons. There are many in the Smoldering Wastes. If you find one, use the kongamato to spray them with our silver dew. Please be sure to repeat this three times. If they are repelled by the smell, we will know our customers will be satisfied!
<click> <click> The kintamer can help you load a kongamato with your silver dew, so you should go and speak with him.
Troubling news. Very troubling. Much of our crop is substandard. We hope this bundle is not. <click> <click> There, this kongamato is ready. She is now equipped with the silver dew. Bring back good news, hunter!
You fell off? <click> <click> Yes, we remember when we first learned to ride a kongamato. It is difficult. Very difficult. We will help you back on, great hunter! Maybe you will have better luck this time.
<cough> <cough> What is this? The smell...it is unbearable!
How dare you spray this offensive smoke in my face for a second time! <sneeze> It will be hours before my eyes stop watering and I can rid myself of the rancid taste!
This shall not be forgotten! <wheeze> Lest you should do so again, be warned—I will tear you—<cough>—tear you apart!
My stomach growls with hunger, and yet there is no food in sight...
The gaunt wyvern's piercing eyes rake the lands below in search of food. Ride forth on the mount supplied to you by the Vath kintamer and use its Fumigate ability to blast the creature with silver dew scent.
The silver dew was effective in driving off dragons? This is very reassuring to hear! <click> <click> We will include it in today's shipment!
While the supply of silver dew we cultivate is meager, we hope to one day grow enough to fill all our commissions!
We think that things will at least go more smoothly than the time we tried to plant our own tasty greens. <click> <click> We should have realized sooner this was not a good idea. The delightful crunchy plant is too delicious for us to resist!
