Dialogue
So many beautiful fish!
But of course! The answer's obvious, Forename! I can call you Forename, can't I?
Pashenine doesn't need strong—he needs sharp!
To wit, the king puffer! Its bladelike spines are sure to deflate any toad like a defective dirigible.
I don't pretend to know how Pashenine's magicks work, but so long as the lad needs a fish, we'll deliver him a fish.
In fact, let's deliver him several! You can never have too many fish—that's the Fish Fancies Donuhanu motto. So on with you, lass/lad! Buy yourself some crimson lugworms from Bayside Bevy, and cast your line at High Tide Harbor.
As soon as you've reined in some kings, hurry back. We can't keep our friend waitin'!
You may now undertake deliveries for Fish Fancies Donuhanu. By delivering the requested items to Donuhanu and raising yourself in his esteem, you can help him turn a profit on his catch of choice.
Items with a higher collectability will result in greater rewards upon delivery. Speak to Donuhanu to view the deliveries list.
The waters of High Tide Harbor are teemin' with king puffers. And they all love crimson lugworms!
I came to Tuliyollal because I heard you can find anything here. I'm grateful for any help you might be able to provide!
Beautiful! Pashenine should be tickled to see such spindly spines.
Flawless! The spines of true monarchy. Pashenine'll no doubt puff with pleasure!
In making your first successful delivery, you have begun to earn Donuhanu's trust.
Deliver the fish Pashenine needs, and deliver them often to improve the prospects of Fish Fancies Donuhanu!
Behold the majesty of a king!
Though don't let his winsome roundness fool you—king puffers are notorious net-wreckers. A menace, dead or alive!
What an incredible specimen... I've never seen anything like it!
Then...may I partake?
Of course, lad! These are your fish, to use however you like. You said you're pullin' magicks out of them, right? How's that done, exactly?
By eating every piece of it—spines and all!
M-Meanin' no disrespect, but you'd best rethink that notion, lad. You try to eat that fish and it'll gut you from the inside!
It's the only way I can acquire my magicks. Rest assured, I've come prepared.
As I mentioned previously, my only grasp of Whalaqee magicks is upon the slippery and scaled. Where the rest of my brethren must master many techniques, I must master many fish.
The method is simple—I eat a fish in its entirety, and then I can call upon it at any time. Most Whalaqee can only summon a single species, you see.
The more I eat a particular fish, the stronger our spiritual affinity grows—so I am prepared to consume as much as necessary.
To this end, I have spent many a moon studying the culinary arts, that I might prepare any and all fish for complete and pleasurable consumption.
Any fish? Even fancy ones?
I sell the occasional anchovy for my customers to munch on while they browse my better beauties, but if folks are only lookin' for a feast...
...then we make them the fanciest feasts they've ever seen! Pashenine! You've got to teach me how to cook!
In exchange, me and Forename will find any fish you need for your rite of passage! You'll have more trials to overcome than one spongy old toad, eh?
Indeed I will! Thank you, Donuhanu—I couldn't ask for a happier arrangement.
Likewise, my lad! You'll be needin' a kitchen, won't you? Or did you have a place in mind?
No place in particular, I admit. My only aim was finding a suitable fish—the rest I assumed would fall into place.
Well, you're welcome to use old Donuhanu's kitchen in the Resplendent Quarter. Nothin' glamorous—but more glamorous than nothin'!
Your generosity is limitless. Then, without further ado, allow me to prepare these wonderful puffers you have caught me.
And there you have it! A king puffer soup garnished with deep-fried spines.
That was divine!
Y-You really ate those spines right up...
You caught some wonderful specimens. Already I can feel their energies taking root within me.
I must familiarize myself with new fish before I can use them in battle. If you'll excuse me, I will find some quiet corner in which to do so.
Of course, of course! May your kings serve you royally!
Now, I suppose we wait. ...Fancy a quick fish?
Donuhanu is pleased with your efforts. He now considers you a Friendly Fish Finder!
The next quest will be available from Donuhanu upon reaching level 93 as a fisher.
