Quest text

I hear that Winston the archeologist is searching for something in the Rocky Mountains on the east side of Perion...
Winston, an archaeologist I ran into in the Rocky Mountains east of Perion, has lost the fossils he's meticulously been collecting in the region. He asked me to bring back 12 Animal Fossils and 12 Plant Fossils, which have been stolen by Green Mushrooms and Axe Stumps. How could he lose such important things? He's more careless than he looks...
I found the fossils that Winston lost.

  1. Hello, there, nice to meet you. I'm Winston the archeologist, and I'm looking for fossils of prehistoric life.

  2. Perion may be a land of dry, rocky mountains today, but it used to be a fertile land full of tall trees and lots of creatures, much like Ellinia. Can you believe that? I'm looking for evidence from that era. If you are not busy and all, can you help me out?

Branch 1

  1. Thank you. I ran into something odd yesterday. I went to Perion for some food, and when I came back, I found my tent raided by monsters. They took my fossils and ran away.

  2. Looking at the footprints, it seems like the culprits are Green Mushrooms and Axe Stumps. Please go take care of them and gather up 12 Animal Fossils and 12 Plant Fossils for me. Thanks, and good luck!

Branch 2

  1. Kids these days are so selfish, saying no to an old man's favor. Fine, please leave.
