Dialogue Fussy Carlotta: "For such an impatient person, you certainly dawdled, . Incidentally, your eye twitches and your gait is wobbly, and you have a---"

You "Weird. I feel as though I could chat with you all day, Carlotta. Now then, would you be so kind as to please tell me about Dionte? At your leisure, of course."

Fussy Carlotta: "Such manners! I'd be delighted to. Dionte was in a peculiar mood. At first I thought he was perhaps mentally ill, what with all the whispering to himself he was doing and the way he kept slapping at his ear, but then I decided it must simply have been the result of love, which I understand can do funny things to folks. I wouldn't know, myself, since I've never--"

You "Aw, that's too bad, but meanwhile Dionte?"

Fussy Carlotta: "Yes, yes. Well, it must have been love because Dionte adamantly wanted to know what I could sell him that would be a suitable gift to give a female Treant. I told him the truth of course, that given how awful the Treants smell, a suitable gift would be a large can of Enchanted Odor Annihilator."

You "Seriously? You told him to woo a girl by giving her magical deodorant? That's what he bought from you?"

Fussy Carlotta: "No. He had another heated whispering argument with himself and more ear slapping, and then demanded that I sell him two things, which I did. A jar of rare Bog Slug Larvae, and a purple bonnet. He seemed more excited by the slug larvae than the bonnet, but told me I had better wrap the bonnet in a pretty package for him. So I did, and off he went!"

You "He went to where the Treants live?"

Fussy Carlotta: "No. That was the strange thing. He took off like a shot in the other direction, and went to The Dunes of the Dead, a vile place where no sane creature in the Coille would ever go. But Holger here is fearless, and followed Dionte. Holger said there's an old hermit who lives in the Dunes named Rasmus. You could try talking to him about what Dionte was doing there lugging around The Spade of Bones."

You "A spade made of bones? Thanks, Carlotta, I will!"

Fussy Carlotta: "Farewell, !"

Gained 250k experience!

You "No, thank you."

Fussy Carlotta: "See you around then."

Fussy Carlotta: "Well? Did you get them all? You didn't drop them, or anything, did you?"

You "Don't worry, I haven't lost my marbles. Ha! See what I did just there?"

Fussy Carlotta: "Yes, witty. How nice that you have time to make jokes when a poor old man's life is at stake. Now you must hurry and give this Rooting Spell potion to Rasmus!"

You "But where will I find him?"

Fussy Carlotta: "Try near the Carcass Tree. Hurry, hurry! Farewell, ."

'''You received Rooting Spell Potion! '''

You "Bye."
