Dialogue

Accepting the quest

Varpasa: Damn... Who could have done this?
Varpasa: It wasn't you, was it? ...No, it couldn't have been. Besides, an upstanding adventurer like yourself wouldn't be so cruel as to steal my wares... You wouldn't be willing to lend a hand in getting them back, would you?
Varpasa: Oh thank you, thank you!
Varpasa: He looked to be male, about this tall, and dressed in all black alchemist's garb. That's all I can tell you. I didn't get a good look at him before he ran off toward Akyaali.
Varpasa: I can't trust anyone here... Who knows how many accomplices he has lurking about? But you're not from here, so you're in the clear. I know I can trust you to track down that thieving lowlife!
(Optional)
Varpasa: The thief ran off toward Akyaali. Suspicious fellow dressed all in black alchemist's garb.

Speak with the suspicious alchemist near Akyaali

Suspicious Alchemist: Heheh! That fool left herself wide open to get robbed! She didn't even notice me following her from the port. Now all I have to do is sell off this fancy metal and I'll never have to work another day in my life! Or for a few weeks at least...
Suspicious Alchemist: What are you looking at, huh? Scram! You think you're some kind of defender of justice?

Investigate the stolen box

(Obtained Stolen Sheet Metal)

Speak with Varpasa

Varpasa: How did it go?
(Hand over Stolen Sheet Metal)
Varpasa: My sheet metal! You got it back! Nothing stopping me from fixing up that busted old furnace now. So what can you tell me about the culprit?
Varpasa: One of the Elezen folk? Rare to see them around these parts... He must have traveled here from somewhere else.
Varpasa: All sorts of people come to Radz-at-Han, not all of them respectable. The freedom of the city calls people from all lands and walks of life.
Varpasa: He must have been aboard the same vessel as me, seeing as he knew I was transporting valuables and tailed me from the port. I'll need to be more careful of my surroundings from now on. If only everyone were as trustworthy as you!
Varpasa: In any case, I'm almost glad this was a clear-cut robbery. If it had been one of my comrades, that stole from me, I... Well, I won't dwell on it. Here. Take this as thanks for hunting down the thief and returning my goods.

(Optional)
Varpasa: Living as we do in such sweltering climes, we have to check on the ingredients often to make sure the heat and humidity haven't caused anything to spoil.
