Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'It seems that the unintentional idiocy of Kaj and your meddling have had a happy result: the wedding will be soon. I need two things for my marriage dress: white furs for the trim and the cape, and snowdrops for the bouquet. Also, please deliver this invitation personally to Ella in Pynti-peldot; she raised me after my mother died, and since she moved back into the village, we have not seen as much of each other as I would like. 'The highest concentration of kilpa-kita is at Leijona-kotin, a wooded area just south of here. Their fur is the softest and the whitest, and I want the best for my marriage dress! 'Snowdrops can also be found in and around Leijona-kotin, as there they can grow in the shelter of the evergreens.' Background You have played an important part in the courtship of Kaj and Pinja. Objective 1 Collect white furs (0/10) Pick snowdrops (0/10) Deliver the invitation to Ella at Pynti-peldot Snowdrops and white furs can be collected at Leijona-kotin, south of Pinja's homestead, which is south-west of Pynti-peldot in Itä-ma. Ella is at Pynti-peldot. Pinja has asked that you gather the winter-blooming snowdrops and white furs for her marriage dress, and that you hand-deliver an important invitation to Ella in Pynti-peldot. Pinja: 'Bring me the things I asked...I have a wedding to prepare for!' Ella: 'Oh, my little Pinja is getting married? How lovely! Tell her that of course I will be there. 'I had my doubts that any suitor would ever even get near her, with those brothers of hers. Overprotective to a fault. 'I am somehow not surprised that it took the bravest warrior of the tribe to brave them. Ora must be so pleased!' Objective 2 Return to Pinja with the furs and flowers Pinja is at her homestead, south-west of Pynti-peldot. You should return to Pinja with the snowdrops and furs. Ella: 'You will find Pinja at Lumi-talletta, her home. Follow the road south-west.' Pinja: 'Blessings of the ice-spirits upon you, Sivullinen. It is in part thanks to your efforts that Pynti-peldot will host a happy union.' You have earned the trust of the Lossoth-chieftain's son and his bride!
