[npc=174324], in Aid the Covenant:
I hear amazing things about the realm beyond this garden, but honestly I am too old to wish to place myself in danger.
What?
This fae hasn't been anywhere outside of this garden?
JFC that's like being a 90 year old human who has never left their own very small neighborhood.
Or perhaps it's more resemblant to not having left one's own small farm, I suppose.
That's really sad. :(
Though they certainly could have ventured out when they weren't "too old to wish to place [themself] in danger"...
{Then we complete the quest objective, which is simply to "do a World Quest in Arddenweald".}
And then when the quest is complete and you go to turn it in, they say:
I find it helpful to have you do these things for me.
?
[npc=174324] finds it helpful for us to... tell them stories about the realms zone (not even the "realms", since the objective is to do a WQ in Ardenweald) outside their garden?
How the hell is that "helpful"? To anything? Are they... trying to write a book? About the world outside their garden that they know nothing about because they've never seen it? The f***?
This one line makes me think the writer of this quest just... got lazy... and either forgot what the quest was "supposed" to be anyway (bringing back stories of adventure); or they thought we would forget.
I didn't. I mean, I get it's a trivially minor quest, but still... why bother to go through the effort of starting a narrative (faerie too old to venture out, so they want stories from us) if they're not going to finish it?
This is so bizarre...
