The Nutty Merchants

Hello! Are you looking for a job?

We're the Dashing Family - newly arrived from Lightwood. We're good at turning a profit! So it's a chance for you to earn some coin. Just stick with us!

Now, let's get down to business. Majestic cedars grow in Lightwood with cones full of pine nuts! Those nuts are what we're after. They are delicious!

We're planning on opening a business here in Siveria. We'll harvest, process, and sell the nuts. It's a great idea but there's a bit of a problem - there are no cedars here! We suppose firs could do, but we'll need to taste their nuts first.

We'll give you a stick to knock the cones from the trees. Bring us four. We're the only nut experts around here! So we'll sample the goods!

Oh, I forgot to tell you about the sabertooth squirrels, there are lots of them over there. But we don't need any squirrels, just the fir cones, please.

You brought the cones! Let's get those pine nuts out! Hm, why are they so small? Well, size isn't everything. Let's have a little nibble... Ugh, they taste awful! Maybe this wasn't such a good idea after all. Thanks for your help.
