Description

Hey! Since you helped Cesi I thought maybe you might do a favor for me. Well, uh, y'see Miss Sweetflower over there? Sweet as honey, sharp as a tack, and cooks like a goddess. I'm not much to look at, but the lady might think kindly on me if I could surprise her with a gift. A really great gift! But I can't leave m'post or these red-coated jerks might run off with the merchandise. This is where you come in. Find out what Miss Sweetflower wants, get it and bring it back to me.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

    Hey! Wanna make some quick gold? See, I had a mishap a few weeks ago with a shipment. Too much grog, dark seas, sudden rocks. You know, that old story. Anyway, my cargo's been floating out there and no one will get it back for me. Can you believe it?

  • She's Got it Where it CountsDrustvar · Level 20-60

    Word is you're looking to drum up support for Loosecannon. Well I'll buy in if you help me. They took my poor Miranda! Boss Tornsail says I had too much to drink and bet her in cards. I don't really remember what happened last night, but I can hold my liquor and I'd never bet my bird!
