Description

I told you earlier, my pigs are picky eaters. They need to eat meat to grow strong, but they don't like mutton, they don't like yak, and I'm not about to feed them any pig meat.

They do, however, eat meat off of the mushan beasts, and they're also quite partial to turtle. Both creatures can be found in abundance to the west.

My skills as a hunter are admittedly quite weak. Can you help out a young rancher and his pigs?

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Fabulous Miss FannyValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35

    Most of these vegetables will be sold, but I'd like to keep some for my family. Specifically, my nephew Liang needs some to feed to his pigs. Unfortunately, the pathway to Liang's farm is currently swarming with Snagtooth virmen. We're going to have to ask Miss Fanny to help us out.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Back to the StyValley of the Four Winds · Level 15-35

    I try to keep an eye on my stock, but every once in a while some of them sneak away. With all the confusion these virmen are causing, I may have let my guard down for a few moments, and some of my pigs escaped. Care to look for them? I'd start by looking down the hill, to the west.
