The Leprechaun

If you haven't talked to the campers yet

• Warrior: We're looking for Zanaris...GAH! I mean we're not here for any particular reason at all.
• Option 1: Who's Zanaris?
  • Player: Who's Zanaris?
  • Warrior: Ahahahaha! Zanaris isn't a person! It's a magical hidden city filled with treasures and rich... uh, nothing, it's nothing.
  • Option 1: If it's hidden, how are you planning to find it?
    • Player: If it's hidden, how are you planning to find it?
    • Warrior: Well, we don't want to tell anyone else about that, because we don't want anyone else sharing in all the glory and treasure.
    • Option 1: Please tell me.
      • Same as above
    • Option 1: Looks like you don't know either.
      • Player: Well, it looks to me like YOU don't know EITHER seeing as you're all just sat around here.
        • Warrior: Of course we know! We just haven't figured out which tree the stupid leprechaun's hiding in yet!
        • Warrior: GAH! I didn't mean to tell you that! Look, just forget I said anything okay?
        • Player: So a leprechaun knows where Zanaris is, eh?
        • Warrior: Ye... uh, no. No, not at all. And even if he did - which he doesn't - he DEFINETLY ISN'T hiding in some tree around here. Nope, definitely not. Honestly.
        • Player: Thanks for the help!
        • Warrior: Help, What help? I didn't help! Please don't say I did, I'll get in trouble!
  • Option 2: There's no such thing.
    • Player: There's no such thing!
    • Warrior: When we've found Zanaris, you'll... GAH! I mean, we're not here for any particular reason at all.

  • Player: What makes you think it's out here?

  • Skip to "If it's hidden..."

Secret Spoiled

The Monk

• Player: Have you found the tree with the leprechaun yet?
• Monk: No, we've looked for ages but haven't... Hey! Wait a minute! How did you know about that?
• Player: Thanks for the information!
• Monk: ...You tricked me. I'm not talking to you anymore.

The Archer

• Player: So I hear theres a leprechaun around here who can show me the way to Zanaris?
• Archer: ... W-what? How did you...?
• Archer: No. You're wrong. Now go away.

The Wizard

• Player: Found that leprechaun yet?
• Wizard: Hahaha! Go away, amateur! You're not worthy of joining our great group!
• Player: ...Right.

The Warrior

• Player: So let me get this straight. I need to search the trees around here for a leprechaun. Then, when I find him, he will tell me where this 'Zanaris' is?
• Warrior: What? How did you know that? Uh... I mean, no, no you're very wrong. Very wrong, and not right at all, and I definitely didn't tell you about that at all.

The Leprechaun

• Shamus: Hey! Yer big elephant! Don't go choppin' down me house, now!
• Shamus: Ah, yer big elephant! Yer've caught me! What would an elephant like yer be wanting wid ol' Shamus, then?
• Player: I want to find Zanaris.
• Shamus: Zanaris, is it now? Well, well, well... You'll be needing that funny little shed out there in the swamp, so you will.
• Player: Shed? I thought Zanaris was a city.
• Shamus: Aye, that it is!
• Option 1: How does it fit in a shed, then?
  • Player:How does it fit in a shed, then?
  • Shamus: Ah, yer stupid elephant! The city isn't IN the shed! The doorway to the shed is a portal to Zanaris, so it is.
  • Player: So, I just walk into the shed and end up in Zanaris?
  • Skip to below
• Option 2: I've been in that shed and I didn't see a city.
  • Player: I've been in that shed and I didn't see a city.
  • Continuing
  • Shamus: Oh, was I forgetting to say? Ya need to be carrying a dramen staff to be getting there! Otherwise, yer'll just be ending up in the shed.
  • Player: Where could I get such a staff?
  • Shamus: Dramen staves are crafted from branches of the dramen tree, so they are. I hear there's a dramen tree in a cave over on the island of Entrana.
  • Shamus: There would probably be a good place for an elephant like yer to look, I reckon.
  • Shamus: The monks are running a ship from Port Sarim to Entrana, so I hear. Did yer need a teleport over to Port Sarim?
  • Option 1: Yes, please, a teleport would be useful.
    • Player: Yes, please, a teleport would be useful.
    • Shamus: Right yer are. Hold on! Avach Sarimporto!
  • Option 2: No thanks, I'll get there on my own.
    • Player: No thanks, I'll get there on my own.
    • Shamus: Fine, have it yer way. I'm off!
    • The leprechaun magically disappears.

Further Dialogue

The Monk

• Monk: I already told you. I'm not talking to you anymore.

The Archer

• Player: So you didn't find the entrance to Zanaris yet, huh?
• Archer: Don't tell me a novice like YOU has found it!
• Player: Yep. Found it REALLY easily too.
• Archer: ...I cannot believe that someone like you could find the portal when experienced adventurers such as ourselves could not.
• Player: Believe what you want. Enjoy your little camp fire.

The Wizard

• Wizard: Hahaha, you're such an amateur!
• Wizard: Go and play with some cabbage, amateur!
• Player: ...Right.

The Warrior

• Player: Have you found anything yet?
• Warrior: We're still searching for Zanaris... GAH! I mean we're not doing anything here at all.
• Player: I haven't found it yet either.

Entrana

• Cave Monk: Be carefull going in there! You are unarmed, and there is much evilness lurking down there! The evilness seems to block off our contact with our gods.
• Cave Monk: so our prayers seem to have less effect down there. Oh, also, you won't be able to come back this way - This ladder only goes one way!
• Cave Monk: The only exit from the cave below is a portal which is guarded by greater demons!
• Option 1: I don't think I'm strong enough to enter then.
  • Player: I don't think I'm strong enough to enter then.
• Option 2: Well, that is a risk I will have to take.
  • Player: Well, that is a risk I will have to take.
  • You climb down the ladder.

Tree spirit

• Tree spirit: You must defeat me before touching the tree!
• With the Tree Spirit defeated, you can now chop the tree.

If you have the requirements

• You cut a branch from the Dramen tree.
• You carve the branch into a staff.

If you skipped parts of the quest

• The tree seems to have a ominous aura to it. You do not feel like chopping it down.

If you talked to the leprechaun before you enter Zanaris

• Shamus: Hey! Yer big elephant! Don't go choppin' down me house, now!
• Shamus: Ah, yer big elephant! Yer've caught me! What would an elephant like yer be wanting wid ol' Shamus, then?
• Option 1: I'm not sure.
  • Player: I'm not sure.
  • Shamus: Ha! Look at yer! Look at the stupid elephant who tries to go catching a leprechaun when he don't even be knowing what he wants!
  • The leprechaun magically disappears
• Option 2: How do I get to Zanaris again?
  • Player: How do I get to Zanaris again?
  • Shamus: Yer stupid elephant! I'll tell yer again! Yer need to be entering the shed in the middle of the swamp while holding a dramen staff. Yer can make the dramen staff
  • Shamus: from a dramen tree branch, and there's a dramen tree on Entrana. now leave me alone, yer great elephant.
  • The leprechaun magically disappears

Entering the toolshed

• The world starts to shimmer...
• Congratulations! Quest complete!

Postquest

• Player: Hey, thanks for all the information. It REALLY helped me out in finding the lost city of Zanaris and all.
• Warrior: Oh, please don't say that anymore! If the rest of my party knew I'd helped you, they'd probably throw me out and make me walk home by myself!
• Warrior: So anyway, what have you found out? Where is the fabled Zanaris? Is it all the legends say it is?
• Player: You know...I think I'll keep that to myself.
