Preview

Tasim and the player meet up at the edge of the Nivla Woods; however, a sketchy traveler appears and asks the duo to get a medicinal herb from a spider cave in the Nivla Woods.

Stage 1

» Meet up with Tasim at the entrance to Nivla Woods at [-424, 71, -1595].

• Tasim: Oh, <playername>! There you are. It's good to see you. Are you ready to continue on towards Detlas?
• Tasim: It seems we'll need to pass through the Nivla Woods first. I've heard the forest is crawling with spiders... But between you and me, we should be-
• ???: H-hey! You two! You're soldiers, right? I can tell from your weird fashion sense. You folk are supposed to help people! So. Help!
• Tasim: Huh? Oh- yes, of course! What's your name? What do you need help with?
• Ope: I'm Ope! I was recently... uh... bit by a spider! And now I need your help to get a rare medicinal herb to heal me!
• Ope: It only grows in an infested cave filled with creepy crawlies. And I'm clearly in no condition to go get it myself!
• Tasim: Well, alright! We're here to help, after all, so... We'll get you that herb!
• Ope: Perfect. I'll bring you to the cave, and you can do the rest from there. Follow me, soldiers!

Stage 2

» Follow Ope to the cave at [-322, 71, -1565].

• Ope: Well, here we are! The cave's right over there - just climb up the rocks and jump into it.
• Ope: Hm... There's two of you. Good! One of your can climb up into that cave, and the other can protect me from the crawly spiders down here!
• Tasim: Alright! <playername>, you can go into the cave, and I can defend Ope here while you do that.
• Ope: Good, good. Well, good luck up there! Try not to get bitten too much by the spiders!

Stage 3

» Locate the medicine in the spider cave behind Ope at [-322, 75, -1565].

The Spider Mother Grove
Cave has to be completed in order to resolve this stage.

Stage 4

» Exit the cave at [-322, 71, -1565] with the medicinal herb.

Right-click the Saccharum Plant to harvest it and then exit the cave.

• Ope: There you are! It feels like we've been waiting for hours.
• Tasim: It... really hasn't been that long. Maybe ten minutes at most.
• Ope: Well-... Anyway! Do you have the herb? It's very- uh, important! To cure me. Yep.
• [-1 Saccharum Plant]
• Ope: There it is! Eheh. Thank you kindly for your work, soldiers! Now, about your payment...Let's see, what do I have...
• Ope: Oh. I seem to be out of emeralds. Well- I can, uh, offer some advice! There's lots to find in this forest. Plenty of caves with valuables to explore! Might be worth your time.
• Tasim: Wait, are you seriously not going to-
• Ope: It has been a time, soldiers, but I truly must be going! We're near Alekin Village, you should stop on by! Just keep going east down the main road! Go and speak to the mayor! He can cover my expenses!
• Ope: Well. Goodbye!
• Tasim: ...
• Tasim: That's... frustrating. He seemed shady from the start, I should have-... Well. What's done is done. Let's go speak to that mayor.

Stage 5

» Speak to Mayor Alvin in Alekin Village at [-181, 71, -1615].

• Mayor Alvin: Ah, travelers... welcome to our humble forest town. Have you come to stay, or are you simply passing through?
• Tasim: Probably the latter. Though, we ran into a man named Ope, who directed us to speak with you.
• Mayor Alvin: Oh, Ope... I take it your meeting with him went poorly? I must apologize for him, he is... a tough man to deal with.
• Mayor Alvin: Here, I may offer you a small sum of emeralds as an apology. I hope he has not soured your opinion of our small town, here...
• Tasim: Oh... Thank you. That's very kind of you. We'll probably stay for a while, before we continue towards Detlas.
• Mayor Alvin: Then feel free to make yourselves at home! We welcome all travelers here, no matter how long their stay is.
