What to do
Description
I'm through with gyrocopters. Sure, they work, but when has that ever been good enough for a real gnome? I want real flight, with WINGS! I've been studying birds for years now, trying to unlock the final secret to building a machine that flies just like them. That elegant soaring and swooping, the rush of wind over the wings, ahh. You! You can help me. I need the finest flight feathers you can find. The golden eagles circling near the lodge would be a fine choice...
