Text

• First Visit
  • You have much to learn, young one. Go ye hence, and adventure. I'd suggest a few runs at Cobb's Knob, and the Haunted Pantry. Come back to me when you're marginally more experienced. Be sure and equip your starting items (from the inventory screen) before you do.
• Second Visit
  • Welcome back, young one. Now that you've gotten your feet wet with the whole adventuring thing, I have an assignment for you.
    
    Return to me once you have amassed 30 Meat.
• Third Visit
  • In the Kingdom of Loathing, Meat is used to purchase things. Go to the market, and purchase some chewing gum on a string. Bring it back to me.
  • Chewing gum on a string can be purchased at the market. Get some, and bring it back to me.
  • Excellent work, young one. Chewing gum on a string can be used to fish things out of the sewer near the market. Give it a shot when you're back in town. In the meantime, please accept this headdress as a reward for your progress.
    

    You acquire an item: oriole-feather headdress

    
    Come back to me when you are more powerful. I will have more work for you to do.
• Fourth Visit
  • Welcome back, my disciple. It is good that you have returned, for these are trying times -- I have broken my favorite action figure. Make some meat paste (in your inventory) and fix it for me -- you are my only hope.
    

    You acquire an item: action figure body

    You acquire an item: action figure head

  • My action figure is still broken. Make some meat paste, [use] the paste, and combine the body and head of the figure. Please hurry -- it's my favorite action figure.
• Fifth Visit
  • Joy of joys, my disciple! Thank you for repairing my precious Mighty Bjorn. Meat paste can be used to combine other items, as well. Spend some time playing with it, and see what you can make.
    
    And now, for your last assignment, go fetch me a nice-looking twig for my nest. The Hermit probably has one. Buy a Hermit Permit in the market, and visit him in his mountain abode.
    
    Give him this, in trade.
    

    You acquire an item: worthless trinket

  • Please, my disciple. Bring me a nice-looking twig for my nest. Buy a Hermit Permit in the market, and visit the Hermit in the Big Mountains. If you've lost the worthless item I gave you to trade for the twig, you can probably find another one by fishing around in the sewer.
• Sixth Visit
  • Ah. This golden twig will do wonderfully.
    
    With that, I bid you a fond farewell -- you no longer need my guidance.
    
    Take this certificate, and visit the Council of Loathing, in the Seaside Town. They will instruct you further.
