Quest

Fire is the lifeblood of a blacksmith. I need a hotter fire to make this high quality weapon. I'm gathering flames from Forge of the Gods. You don't want to get burned, do you?

(This quest may only be undertaken by a character of level 74 and above.)

Very well! Let me ask you a favor! Bring me 1000 Flames from the monsters inside the Forge of the Gods. I'll give you a S-grade weapon recipe that I have.

Oh, I just remembered than my younger brother, Rooney, also collects Flames in the Forge of the Gods. He's a wanderer, that boy! I've heard that he gives a S-grade weapon recipe to anyone who brings him 1200 Flames, but he probably won't be easy to find!

You brought me one thousand flames as I asked! So, do you want to exchange them for a Grade S weapon recipe?

"I don't want to trade now." "Yes, I'll trade now."

You don't have 1000 flames yet. Get them from monsters in Forge of the Gods. Bring me 1000 flames and I'll give you a grade S weapon recipe.

"I'll keep at it." "I want to quit."

Continue gathering flames from monsters in Forge of the Gods.

Sorry if this isn't for the weapon you wanted, but a grade S weapon recipe is hard to get and very valuable!

Come back anytime if you change your mind, I'll be here.

I have a story for you. Have you heard tell of Vulcan, the blacksmith? Now, all us blacksmiths have much to say about fire � we depend on it for our livelihood. Vulcan, though, he spoke of nothing else, and his talk was the marvel of all who heard it. He said that the fire was the actual life of the blacksmith, and could think of nothing but ways to make his fire hotter and fiercer.

Eventually, he followed his notions right into the deeps of the Forge of the Gods, where he said he could collect and use all the fire he would want. It's a horribly dangerous place, and he's looking for those who can accompany him, adventurers who are not shy of danger and who can help him collect the flames. Do you reckon to be interested?

Express interest in the venture.

Ho, there! I'm Hilda the Blacksmith, and if you want good, solid work done, there's none better here.

Don't pay any attention to the claims of that crackpot Vulcan. He's mad through and through. Fire is his obsession � he's forever searching for ways to make fire hotter and fiercer. I care for my fire, as does any competent blacksmith, but there are limits. Anyway, he won't live long enough to help you with anything; he's in the habit of venturing into the Forge of the Gods, and one day its dangers will claim him - and his eternal fire too!

I've heard he is looking for adventurers to help him collect flames, but take my advice: leave that job to tougher adventurers, or wait until you are tougher. If you accompany him now, you'll die right alongside him.

Very well, then. Defeat the monsters in the Forge of the Gods, collect the flames you find there, and bring them to Vulcan. He's mad, but he's a canny blacksmith; he'll give you an S-grade weapon recipe if you can bring him 1000 flames.

You may have heard tell of Vulcan's younger brother Rooney. No? Well, he's as mad as his brother is, and perhaps even cannier as a blacksmith. He's a wandering lad, but he has a lot of different S-grade weapon recipes. Give Rooney 1200 flames, and he'll reward you with an S-grade weapon recipe. If you can find him in his wanderings, it might be a good idea for you to meet with him too.

So you met with Vulcan, did you? Did he give you an earful of his madness? Well, he's mad about flame, but the rewards he offers are real. Defeat the monsters in the Forge of the Gods, collect the flames you find, and go to him; he will give you an S-grade weapon recipe if you bring him 1000 flames.

If you gather even more flames, you might see about meeting Vulcan's younger brother Rooney. He's as mad as his brother, and he's engaged in the same quest. Bring him 1200 flames and he will give you an S-grade weapon recipe. Rooney wanders from here to there, so he's not easy to find...but it might be worth your while to deal with him.

You brought 1200 flames! Choose your recipe from the list:

"Forgotten Blade" "Basalt Battlehammer" "Imperial Staff" "Angel Slayer" "Dragon Hunter Axe" "Saint Spear" "Demon Splinter" "Heavens Divider" "Arcana Mace" "Draconic Bow"

You don't have 1200 flames yet. Get them from monsters in Forge of the Gods. Bring me 1200 flames and I'll give you an S-grade weapon recipe.

Here it is, I hope you will enjoy it! That sort of recipe is really rare to find.

Thanks again for the flames!
