You must fight one with a hard scale to learn more about the nature of resilience. Zebeginia has sent you to assist a farmer in the Bristugo area with a problem he's been having with Ruxus. The Holcomb Farmstead is on the Dalimond Peninsula near Bristugo.


Quest text[edit]

Kill twelve (12) Small Ruxus, Zebeginia was specific about the size. They can be found around the Holcomb Farmstead near Bristugo.

Resilience. Armor. Protection. All something every adventurer, Dragon or naka, desires. I see the naka scurrying to and fro every day creating new weapons and armor. We Dragons do not have need of physical accoutrements such as they. But you can learn to survive in battle longer.

It is simply a matter of hardening one's scales, <player>. An easy thing to learn, but first you must prove to me that you can fight and can show these naka how to truly do battle. There is one in particular, a farmer by the name of Holcomb, who has set up his farm near Bristugo. He complains frequently of the Small Ruxus which keep "invading" it. Go there, kill them, and show me how natural it can be to protect one's self.

Game Feedback: You have done as asked. Return for your reward.
