Story
The offer
Kentari are cantankerous beasts, but for all their faults the smarter ones are excellent cooks.
Surprising, isn't it? I've discovered that the secret ingredient in their cooking is a special spice. I tried to replicate it, but it's impossible. The Kentari keep the ingredients a secret.
Since producing the spice is impossible, I've now succumbed to stealing it. Don't judge me, Daeva! You don't know real flavour until you've tasted stew made with Kentari spices.
- "You're an odd one."
I don't want to harm the Kentari--I wouldn't want them to stop making the spices after all. However, I managed to steal a bag of the spices when I donned some cumbersome armour and waded into their camp.
It might sound stupid and reckless...but it worked great!
The armour was a fantastic idea, but then it started to wear out after being bludgeoned, bashed and slashed a few hundred times as I left the camp. Now I need materials to make another set of armour. Do you think you can help, Daeva?
- Accept.
- Decline.
Just bring me the skins of Lazy Ksellids and Ironback Snufflers. Balaur skin would be ideal...but the skins of those animals will work. Well, at least for a few minutes.
The creatures should be right around here. Please get the skins as soon as possible...I'm running low on spices!
- "On my way."
Journal
Jorund needs Ksellid and Snuffler hides to make armour.
Along the way
It's true, I should focus more on my duties than my personal interests...but I just can't get those Kentari spices out of my head!
Well, Daeva? I'm shaking with anticipation! Did you bring the skins for the armour?
- "Here are the skins."
The armour wears out fast with a few dozen Kentari on me...I need more materials. Please bring the exact number of Lazy Ksellid and Iron Armoured Snuffler hides I requested.
Don't keep me waiting, Daeva!
- "I'll be back."
Reward
Yes, yes! This is it! This should be enough materials for more than a few suits of armor. I can almost taste those spices....
Take this, and please come back later.... I'm thinking of starting a little enterprise as a Kentari spice merchant.
Completion
Jorund said he needs durable armor to steal the secret cooking spices from the Kentari.
You brought him the hides of Lazy Ksellids and Ironback Snufflers, for which he was overjoyed. He said to come back later if you're interested in helping again.
