So... I have this daily. I have my weapon, and I have a torch. The torch is on fire. There's a rope in front of me. What do I do? I've tried cutting the rope, undoing the rope, stealing the rope. Nothing works. The torch is really, really hot. Like, fire hot. And the rope is really dry. What am I supposed to do? The quest name is so confusing and the dialogue isn't much help. Can someone tell me what I need to do to complete this daily?
Congratulations
you managed to kill that boss you see
the Grinning Colossus
you're the hero we all wish we could be
You made it through the tunnel
then you grabbed that fire on the wall
you jumped up above
then you burned the rope and saved us all(No downvoting just because you don't get it)

Description
I, umm... well... Oh, never mind. It was a stupid idea. It's just that, I was thinking that maybe we can stop the Kunzen hozen from attacking us without having to, you know... KILL anything. I noticed a few ropes on the side of the mountain. I think they're using them to climb down to our farms and... No, forget it. It was a silly idea anyways.
