Clam Trouble
Level requirement: 60
Part 1
This quest is started by [Ferrel Guild Staff] Robin.
Robin is the captain of the ship that travels between Kenji Beach and Junon Polis. Robin has a sister who has a very nice aquarium, but it is lacking of clams. She asked Robin to bring her some clams from his travels, but Robin is too busy that he can't go away from the ship to the beach to collect clams.
Fortunately a visitor happens to pass by who would gladly help him collect those clams.
The beach of Kenji Beach is literally swarmed by those clams. Robin asks the visitor to bring him at least 30 Kenji Clams just in case some of them would not survive. Well... Robin's sister got a large aquarium...
So the visitor does as Robin says, goes to the beach and picks up 30 Kenji Clams... But then a big surprise comes... The moment the visitor picks up the 30th clam, he/she notices shomething shiny inside the clam's armor.
It is a beautiful pearl! The visitor has completed his/her job, so he/she heads back to Robin.
Robin is very grateful for the visitor's help. He rewards the visitor with some experience points and 80 000 Zulie.
However at this point the visitor gets to chose... He/she either tells about the pearl to Robin, or simply keeps it to himself/herself.
The quest continues in different ways based on the visitor's choice.
Part 2
Option 1:
If the visitor tells Robin about the pearl, then Robin tells a story about his grandmother having a similar pearl and blah, blah, blah... Well... the story ends with the death of his grandmother, but nevertheless it is said that Kenji Pearls can lead their owner to a lost treasure that once belonged to the pirates of the Kenji Sea.
Robin could never try this, because his grandmother's pearl disappeared after her death.
Robin does not know how can the pearl show the way to this treasure, but he knows someone who can help. This someone is [Vicious Captain] Ruven who usually hangs around in the Junon Polis Harbor.
So the visitor goes to Ruven...
Option 2
The visitor decided to not tell about the peart to Robin, but the moment the visitor says "Good Bye!" the visitor hears a mysterious voice...
The visitor looks around... Nobody's there...
The mysterious voice came back... It says: "You... must... tell... to Jones!".
Wow, creepy... Better talk to Jones. -Says the visitor.
(Jones is the guy at the lighthouse in Junon Polis.)
Part 3
Option 1:
The visitor visits (see what I did there?) Ruven the Vicious Captain and asks him about the Kenji Pearl.
After a big laugh, Ruven says:
"Of course I know how can the pearl show the way to the treasure... afterall, it was me who hidden the treasure. If you give me that pearl I'd gladly tell you where to find my treasure!"
Ruven tells the visitor that it was him who spreaded the stories about the Kenji Pearl, just to get his hand on one of them... He tells that the Kenji Pearls are extremely rare... only one clam creates one pearl ONCE every 10 000 years.
Ruven asks: "So it's a deal, or not?"
The visitor can't say no to Ruven's offer, so he/she hands the pearl to Ruven.
Ruven tells that the hidden treasure can be found on a small island south of Kenji Beach.
Option 2
The mysterious voice leads our visitor to Jones the historian of Junon Polis.
Jones explains the story behind the Kenji Beach... He tells that the does exists, but it is not the pearl that shows the way to it's location, but the man who spreaded this story about the Kenji Pearls just to get his dirty hands on one of them. The man who wants this pearl so much is a pirate who since then became the greatest pirate of the seven planets of ROSE.
Fortunately Jones knows where the treasure is hidden, as back in the day he was the member of Ruven's crew.
Jones tells that the treasure is hidden on a small island south of Kenji Beach.
Part 4
Both options lead the visitor to the treasure, the only difference is that with Ruven's option the visitor don't have the pearl, while with Jones' option he/she has it...
The visitor finds a small box on the island... When he/she opens it he finds some zulie and a necklace. It has the symbol of the Akram Kingdom on it, so better show it to someone from the Akrams.
Luce is the closest Akram Kingdom member. He lives in Kenji Beach, so better show the necklace to him.
Part 5
Luce explains that this necklace once belonged to the Queen of the Akram Kingdom, but it was stolen by a bunch of pirates when the Queen visited Kenji Beach two years ago.
Luce ensures that the necklace will find it's way to it's owner and rewards the visitor. This reward depends on the path the visitor found the treasure.
Option 1
Luce allows the visitor to keep the 197 000 Zulie that was in the treasure chest.
Option 2
The visitor tells Luce how he found the treasure and shows him the pearl.
As a reward he gives our visitor a letter which he/she has to take to Bellia.
Luce tells the visitor that Bellia will turn this pearl into the part of a beatiful jewel that will belong to our visitor.
The visitor will be able to pick from:
-Kenji Pearl Ring (20 AP -10% MP Consumption)
-Kenji Pearl Necklace (30 DEF -10% MP Consumption)
-Kenji Pearl Earring (30 Accuracy -10% MP Consumption)
Both options also reward a bunch of experience.
Just a side note: The first part is similar to the Xita Flowers quest in Sikuku Ruins, the visitor one shots a clam and it's added to the inventory.
