Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue

'We'll need to sneak inside and steal back the gift before Angelica is able to open it. It's not "stealing," <name>, not exactly! It isn't really her property until she opens it, is it? No, of course not. Anyone would say so! And it's only barely burglary. It's for the best, trust me!

'Now go see if there's a window we might use to get inside without being seen.'

Background

Dinodas has come up with a plan to fix his mistake.

Objective 1

Scout a side window to 8 Honeymead Lane

Dinodas has his eye set on a side window through which you might be able to secretly gain access to 8 Honeymead Lane in order to steal back the gift.

Dinodas Boffin: 'Go see if there's a window we might use to get inside without being seen.'

If you are to use this window, you will need to block the view of it with a stack of crates

Objective 2

Take a crate from the stack outside the Fox and Fiddle, in Nobottle

There are so many nosey hobbits around that you will need to stack crates outside the side entrance if you are to hide your caper from their view.

Dinodas Boffin: 'That entrance will work, but we'll need a stack of crates to block the view of it from all the nosey hobbits hereabout. I saw a stack of crates outside the Fox and Fiddle tavern, here in Nobottle. That should work!'

You and Dinodas both set down a crate, but you will need some more

You set the crate down atop the first one, and Dinodas contributes another as well

Success! This should block the view of nosey hobbits!

Objective 3

Talk to Dinodas Boffin on Honeymead Lane and conduct his risky caper

Dinodas Boffin is ready to begin the risky caper.

Dinodas Boffin: 'No time to waste, <name>! Let's get that present back!'

Objective 4

Celebrate your successful caper?

Dinodas is beaming with pride and relief after the successful execution of the caper.

Dinodas Boffin: 'Perfect, <name>, well-done! That could not have gone more smoothly! Now Angelica need never discover the tiny mistake I made concerning her housewarming present. Never has there been a more finely-executed caper!'

Camellia coughs meaningfully. You have been discovered!

Objective 5

Talk to Camellia Boffin beside 8 Honeymead Lane

Camellia Boffin has discovered you! How much does she know about the recently-concluded caper?

Dinodas Boffin: 'Oh no!'

Camellia Boffin: 'Dinodas! What are you whispering about? Why have you stolen back our housewarming present for Angelica? You were so proud of that painting of her new home!'

Camellia gasps, and her expression turns scandalous.

'You had that Elf paint the wrong house! And now you've embroiled me in your silly conspiracy too! Dinodas! How could you?'
