Jumble, Tumble, Diamond Fuss

I can't ask an honored guest of another race who has visited our Dwarven town to run an errand for me! Take your time looking around, and enjoy!

(This quest may only be undertaken by a Dwarven character.)

Hey, young friend! Have you ever heard of the jewel called the Star Diamond? It's a very rare gem of which only twelve exist on the entire continent. Due to a recent stroke of luck, I've managed to obtain one of those Star Diamonds ... It will be delivered here in few days ... I am so excited ...! Hoo Hoo Hoo ...

Hey, young friend. Have you ever heard of a jewel called the Star Diamond? It's a very rare gem of which only twelve exist on the entire continent. Due to a recent stroke of luck, I've managed to obtain one of those Star Diamonds ...

But, it's been more than three days since it was supposed to be delivered ... Hmmph ... What's going on?

Hey! Are you interested in some work? Go and find out why the delivery is taking so long. Don't worry about the reward, I'll pay you more than enough! Those who work for me are all satisfied with their pay. You won't regret it!

Say you will take the task

Good! Do you know Trader Reep of the weapons shop? He got the Star Diamond for me as my agent in Giran. That fellow is a master of bargaining, and so he got me a really nice price for the jewel. Go see him and ask him what's going on. If you show him this Contract, that scoundrel can't play innocent!

And tell him this ... if that no-good crook is planning to cheat me, I will not let him get away with it!

Have you met Reep? Not yet? What in the world are you doing? If you've made up your mind to do this job, you'd better be responsible and get to it! Go and meet Trader Reep at the weapon shop and ask him where my diamond is, right now. If you show him this Contract, he can't pretend that he doesn't know anything!

What did Reep say? Where is my jewel? Hey, youngster, hurry up and find my jewel! You should be more responsible when you're hired to do a job!

Oooh! You've finally brought me my jewel. My precious Star Diamond ... Heh, heh, heh ... Let me see ... my baby ...

What in the world is this? A lump of Coal? Look, young friend, what is the meaning of this? Can't you do a simple job right? Why have you brought me the wrong box? Take this dirty Coal Piece back immediately!

Are you still running around with that lump of Coal? When are you going to bring me my jewel? Can't you do this job right! Look, youngster, don't disappoint me!

Oooh! You've finally found it! My Star Diamond ...! Heh, heh, heh ... Give it to me now! Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

You've done well, young friend. As promised, I will give you a reward. Here, take this weapon. This hammer was used by silversmiths from the Elmoreden period. I got it from Gracia a few days ago, and what do you know, they say that someone stole it from the personal vaults of Count Boldstone and smuggled it here ... As I hold a public position as one of the leaders of the guild, it is not good for me to have smuggled goods in my possession ... So feel free to take it! You can use it or sell it. It's up to you!

... This dice ...? Where did you get this? Thanks anyway. Is there anything else you want to tell me about?

Star Diamond? Oh, you mean the fool's jewel that I won from gambling yesterday! I don't care about you people, but I won that jewel through a fair dice game. The jewel is mine now! No matter what you say, I will not give it back to him! You shouldn't ignore the sacred rules of gambling!

But, it seems like you are in some kind of trouble ... Then, how about this? If you do me a favor ... I will give you the jewel.

Say you will take the task

All right. I will explain this quest to you, so listen carefully. This happened few weeks ago ...

... When I was delivering jewels that I got at the Mithril Mines, I was attacked by goblin brigands ... I barely got out alive, but they took all the jewels I was delivering ... I fired those guards, but ... Anyway, I didn't get the jewels back yet ... I think the Goblin Brigand Lieutenant split the jewels ...

Please go to the west of the Spine Mines, defeat them, and bring the jewels back. They are ten Aquamarines and ten Chrysoberyls. Should you return all of them, I shall give you the jewel your friend had lost from me. You have my word. I consider our agreement to be a binding Contract and I hope it will satisfy you. Please concentrate on finding my precious jewels.

Have you recovered all my jewels? Not yet? Have you forgotten about our contract? I promised that if you restore all my jewels that the Goblin Brigand Lieutenant took from me, I would give you the diamond back that I won from your friend, Torocco. You have to find my ten Aquamarines and ten Chrysoberyls.

Good job! You found all my jewels! Thank you! Now, as we agreed, I will give your friend's diamond back. Take this Gem Box! You don't need to worry about anything. I've never opened it ever since I got it from your friend.

Why have you come back? You got the Gem Box. What else do you need from me? Hurry up and give the diamond back to the owner.

What? Isn't that Murdoc's lucky Coal Piece? Why do you have it?

Oh my! I gave you the wrong Gem Box! How on earth...? Look, I didn't mean to deceive you. This sounds terrible, but I thought the Gem Box that Warehouse Keeper Murdoc entrusted to me was the Gem Box with the diamond in it. Ha ha ha... I didn't mean this to happen, so please forgive me.

I'm very sorry. I will write a letter explaining this situation, so take this to Warehouse Keeper Murdoc. Then you will be able to get your Gem Box back.

Look! I didn't mean it! I was not trying to deceive you! Take the letter I wrote to Warehouse Keeper Murphy. Then, you will be able to get your Gem Box back.

... Look. I am very busy now ... I don't know what you are up to, but can we talk about this later?

Blast... What should I do? What should I do? How can I ever get that diamond back? I am in so much trouble... Gouph will kill me... What should I do?

...What the?! Who are you? How long have you been there? Did Gouph sent you?? Agghh... I'm sorry! Please forgive me....!!! I don't know what to do!!! I lost the legendary Star Diamond, that was my responsibility!!! I dishonored the Carriers, who are famous for their competence... My guild will excommunicate me... I won't be able to pay off the expensive fines even if I worked for the rest of my life? My colleagues and my family will laugh at me... Aghh... This is the end of my life!

Ask what happened.

I received the Star Diamond at Giran ... .and drew a Contract with Reep ... I told him that I would be responsible for delivery ... Everything was great when I was traveling ... And I got here, Kingdom of the Dwarves, last night ... I drank with my old friend, Miner Maron ... We have been friends ever since we were very young ... When we meet once in awhile, we have the bad habit of drinking until we pass out ...

... and we had quite a bit to drink last night ... But when I woke up in the morning, I found that my weapons, equipment, travel money, and the box where I put the Star Diamond were missing ...! I don't know what could have happened ... Agghhhhh ...! However ... Perhaps my friend Maron remembers something about last night ...

But he paid for the drinks last night, as well as for the tables and chairs I broke ... I'm too ashamed to meet him ... Why don't you go to the strip mine and ask him? Give this wine to Maron for me ... This is a rare wine I brought for him from Giran as a present ...

Have you found the Star Diamond ...? Not yet ... Oh no, oh no ... What should I do ...

But you ... Didn't you say that you would meet my friend, Miner Maron, and ask him about the jewel? Hurry up and go to the strip mine and meet Maron!

This is ...? Oh wow! The Treasure Chest I was delivering ...! You've found the Star Diamond!!! Thank you. Thank you. How can I ever repay you ... But first, please take this Treasure Chest to Collector Gouph ... He must be waiting ...

... What should I do ... What should I do ... How can I ever get the diamond back ... I am in so much trouble ... Gouph will kill me ... What should I do ... What should I do ... Disqualification and excommunication from the guild ... ... Expensive fines that I can never pay back in this lifetime ... The mocking laughter of my colleagues and my family ... Aghh ... This is the end of my life ...

Berry Tart ...? Wow ... My favorite ... Is that for me? Wow! Thank you very much!

It's from Murphy? Humph! I hate Murphy! He harassed my lovely Kurupuru ... It was just a stupid jewel ... He didn't have to run after Kurupuru with a knife ... Kurupuru got scared and flew away!!!

Find my Kurupuru! I've had that lovely blade bat for one year! Look at this drawing! Kurupuru looks like this! What do you think? You can find him, right? You can find the jewel if you bring Kurupuru, right ...? Right? Right? So please find him ...!

You haven't found Kurupuru yet? I even gave you a drawing!!! He's a very cute blade bat! Kurupuru swallowed that Star Diamond or whatever it is you are looking for, and flew away ... He must be somewhere outside the village, all cold and dark ... trembling ... My poor Kurupuru ... You must find him!

That diamond is ...? It's the jewel Kurupuru swallowed, right ...? Right? Then, have you found Kurupuru? What? What?

Wait ...! What is this blood on the jewel ... It can't be ... Kurupuru? Kurupuru!!!

Ugh ... Poor Kurupuru ... He must be cold and hungry ... trembling in some cave ... Ughh ... Please come back ...

Has Brunon sent you? Ah ha! You came to the right place! I was going to visit him regarding the same matter! I opened the treasure chest I got from Brunon, and was very surprised to find a jewel in it! I then realized that the treasure chests must have been switched.

But then, something happened! My friend Warehouse Keeper Airy's pet bat all of a sudden swooped in and swallowed the jewel. I was trying to catch the bat and make it spit the jewel out, but it flew out the window ... Airy is very upset that I made her lovely Kurupuru fly away, and she won't talk to me!

This Berry Tart is Airy's favorite dessert. Please give this to her. Her anger will be alleviated somewhat. I need to find that stupid bat as soon as possible ...

Hey, you! Don't be shy, and give those pastries to Warehouse Keeper Airy! Also, tell her that I'm very sorry ...

... My colleague Airy is very upset ... Whew ... Well, it's all my fault ... What should I do ...

Elven Wine ...? A gift from Torocco? Oh my ... This gift is great, but ... he's going to have to fix that bad drinking habit of his ... I'm always worried that Torocco might start trouble while drinking ...

Whew ... I am worried about him ... My friend, Torocco, is a fine, steady lad, but ... He has two bad habits ... One is drinking ... . And the other is gambling ...

... We were drinking together last night ... Then, Blacksmith Brunon suggested we gamble with dice ... I told him not to ... but Torocco just couldn't resist the temptation, and started to roll the dice ... These exact dice here ... He was very drunk and lost everything he had ... Whew ... He may be my friend, but I'm very ashamed of him ...

Ah! You again ... Are you an investigator of the Bronze Key Guild? I told you everything I know ... I don't know about the Star Diamond ... But what I know for sure is that my friend lost everything he had while gambling ... to Blacksmith Brunon.

Whew ... I am very worried about my friend, Torocco ... He is a nice fellow ... Except for his terrible drinking and gambling habits ... I don't know when he will cause another problem, so I can't let down my guard ... Whew ...

Star Diamond? I went on a business trip to Giran expressly for Gouph, and acquired the Star Diamond, that is a fact. I was going to bring it here myself... But Gouph insisted that one of his guild members, Carrier Torocco, be in charge of delivery... So, I gave the jewel to Torocco as he asked. I don't know what happened afterwards.

As our Contract states, I acquired the Star Diamond for him. It was Gouph who insisted that someone else should deliver it. This Contract was drawn up when requesting the delivery. It may be of aid, so take it. I have nothing to do with this anymore.

Ah! And when you see Gouph again, tell him that Trader Reep wants the rest of the payment for the jewel. And!!! If he's trying to cheat me, tell him I won't let him get away with it!!!

Why have you come back? Didn't I tell you? I don't have the Star Diamond!!! The last person who had the jewel was Carrier Torocco. If you find him, show him the Contract I gave you and ask him why the delivery is taking so long. I have nothing to do with this anymore, so don't come back to me again.
