Find Sir Windawood

You might know this already, but Talking Island is part of Gludio's lands. Currently, the person officially in charge of administration and order on the island is Sir Collin Windawood. The lord himself appointed Sir Windawood governor of this island. Now the lord has called for an official meeting. Not that it's any concern of ordinary folk like us -- it's a meeting only for aristocrats who have royal titles.

The problem is, a message has arrived for Sir Windawood to attend the meeting, but I haven't been able to deliver it, as he hasn't been seen for the last few days. He is a great and honorable man, but it worries me that he has no interest in government. Sometimes, he'll take a walk into the forest and it may be days before he returns. Last time, he spent a week at the Marius farm, on the northern shores of the island. An odd person indeed...

Anyway, in order for him to reach the mainland in time for the meeting, someone must deliver this official summons to Sir Windawood. I wonder where he is... how 'bout it, if you're not too busy... do you think you could help me?

Say you will help

Well, I shouldn't be saying this... Sir Windawood is popular among the island folk and is a skilled leader, but he's not interested in public duties at all. Sometimes, he'll take a walk into the forest and it may be days before he returns. Last time, he spent a week at the Marius farm, on the northern shores of the island. Quite an odd person, really.

But, seeing how he always appears in desperate or critical moments to quietly and skillfully manage things, I can't help but think that he's really an able the leader. I mean, isn't that why the lord entrusted him with this duty in the first place?

(This quest may only be undertaken by a character of level 3 and above.)

If you find Sir Windawood, please give him this letter. I don't know precisely where he may be... According to the captain of the guards, he left the village two days ago, muttering something about wanting to see the relics and the Obelisk of Victory...

So, you haven't been able to find Sir Windawood yet? I think he may be somewhere near the Obelisk of Victory. That would be a good place to start searching.

Hmm... something urgent?

Ah, a message from our lord. Another meeting? If he wants to hold a meeting every ten days, what are people living in remote island such as myself supposed to do... it takes a few days just to travel back and forth by ship... plus I'm not interested in sitting in a meeting with the empty-headed nobles.

Well, my apologies to our lord, but I am just going to skip this meeting. I'm sure he will understand if I send a reply explaining the reason. Anyway, thanks for the letter. I guess the guards are busy, asking someone like you to do such a task and all. Oh here, take this. It's not much, but it's in appreciation for coming all the way here to seek me out.

Take a look around, while you're here. I don't know if you are interested in history, but there are many historic relics of ancient Talking Island in this area. This memorial tower right here was built a thousand years ago. Also, the remains of the ancient Elven magic school lie just to the west.

Ask about the Obelisk of Victory Ask about the Elven Ruins

This tower was erected 514 years before the empire was formed, as a memorial to the Elven victory over the Orcs. The Elves won because they had allied with the Humans and taught them magic as they fought together.

However, in the end, the Elves were also betrayed by the Humans and, like the defeated Orcs, they were chased to the outskirts of the continent... The noble Elves, who had ruled the land after the giants' era, were ultimately pushed aside by the Humans whom they had considered worthless... Don't you think history is, ultimately, just a cruel joke?

This island was originally the sacred ground of the Elves of Light. I heard they were powerful enchanters, who communed with spirits. At the time when the Elves began the war with the Orcs, they also began to teach Humans magic to increase their army's strength. Thus, they built the School of Wizardry here, and selected and trained magically talented Humans.

However, after the Humans betrayed the Elves, the Elves all returned to the forest and the School of Wizardry was abandoned. Now it is infested with dangerous monsters. I, too, do not know what to do now...
