Quest text[edit]

Oh, hello <player>, I didn't see you standing there. You're not here for the Savory Desserts class, are you? It's not for a few hours yet and I'm not quite ready... Oh, you're not. Well, that's a bit of a relief. What did you need, then?

Mmm, licorice root! You can make some nice candies with that. In fact, I have a terrific taffy recipe I could give you, if you wouldn't mind doing me a quick favor. The recipe I'm making today calls for ruxus meat and I'm not sure I have enough for the whole class. If you could get me about 30 slabs of fresh ruxus meat, I'd really appreciate it.


I got the recipe from my friend Rashgalaveck, and I think it's actually a variation on a traditional Sslik dessert. I'll give you a copy of it too when you get back. Please hurry though, I need the ruxus meat before my class starts!.


Thank goodness you're back, <player>! I was starting to get worried. Oh, excellent, these cuts will be perfect. Sorry I can't chat, but I have to finish preparing my mise en place for the class. Here is the processing recipe for the licorice root you found, as well as the recipe for this raspberry ruxus dish I'm doing.

Since savory desserts can be something of an acquired taste, I also made a copy of that taffy recipe I mentioned. My good friend Vandellia Stormdaughter gave it to me a few years ago, not long after she earned her Grandmaster Crafter rank. Oh, my, I have to get busy. Thank you again for all your help!
