[F01][First Lessons Quest] For Freaking Finally

Luke was about to go looking for more animals to slaughter, but he saw someone else walking through the area. Intrigued, he waved and went to chat. 

“Hey, what’s going on, old man,” Luke said, forgetting his manners. The man didn’t seem offended, if anything he seemed to want some favors done. Having nothing better to do, Luke shrugged and figured he might as well help. He was trying to take it easy so if he could get some chores done while he waited for his body to get over how much he’d pushed it recently, then perhaps he would be able to walk home with some extra money.  

“Alright, I’ll help ya,” he said, shrugging and accepting this list of chores. 

The first on the list was to go help gather some herbs. It was a quick trip to get to the shop where Luke ran into the man who ran it. “Listen, I don’t know anything about gathering herbs but if you give me a detailed list of them and what they look like, I’ll give it a go.” 

The man tried to offer him some food for his troubles, but Luke didn’t accept. After killing that boar he wasn’t all that hungry, surprisingly. 

“Why the hell am I even doing this,” Luke thought as he walked away from the shop and down the path that led out into the forests. The list had plant names he’d never even heard of, though the descriptions were fairly useful. Unfortunately, his first loop around the outskirts of the forest yielded nothing.

Luke yawned as he kept circling around, widening out his search radius. The most important thing on the list seemed to be a blue looking flower, and it was supposed to be pretty common. Luke supposed he didn’t have a good eye for this sort of thing, which was why he typically didn’t spend his time frolicking in meadows. Perhaps that’s what he needed to do… climb up somewhere high and get a good vantage point of the forest so that he could spot any meadows. 

He was just about to rise up when he noticed a patch of blue flowers that seemed to match the description. “Well, hello there,” he said, scooping down to pick them up. “Imagine my luck…” he looked over them several times to make sure that they matched perfectly. If they told him they were wrong then he’d have to punch them in the face.

Luke put them away then looked for the next thing on the list. The next most common thing was a kind of mushroom, but no matter how much he looked he didn’t find it. He gave up thirty minutes later, figuring that this was going nowhere. No sudden strokes of inspiration or luck managed to grant him any sort of success. He went back to town to hand over the flowers to the man who didn’t look all that pleased, but hey it was more or less free labor since it wasn’t like Luke was charging for his services. 

“Alright, cya, I gotta help a blacksmith next, I think,” Luke said to the shopkeeper. This one was located not too far away either, just down the street in fact. It was the very one that he got his sword from, he thought. He couldn’t really remember since he wasn’t too familiar with this area yet.

The smith didn’t have much to say. He basically told Luke to fuck off, which was quite rude. Luke persisted, bringing up the chore list, and he eventually handed him a bag of food to go feed to some boars in the forest. Luke felt like he was just giving him something to do in order to get him out of the shop.

“I just dealt with a boar earlier today,” Luke sighed. He was so close to saying fuck it to this chore list, but he had literally nothing better to do with his time so he accepted the bag of food and went out in the forest. 

Supposedly these were poisonous foods that would kill the boarlets. It was easier than slaying them with a sword, probably. Luke went over to where he’d seen the boars earlier and sprinkled some food around, wondering if this was a solid strategy or not. 

Surprisingly, the boards were attracted to the food. It did give off an ominously pleasing smell, and one boar ran up to a spot and started digging in. The death was rather violent – Luke turned away.

Luke was sick to his stomach as the boar died. It felt wrong. What purpose did it serve? He had nothing against killing beast or man, but this was a weird way of doing it… just poisoning the local food supply. He wondered if the other villagers knew about what was going on in their back yards. Well, he could just point to the blacksmith if anyone caught him doing this. He went on to sprinkle some more food elsewhere which in turn killed another boar. It was almost too easy. Strangely the large boars didn’t come near. Perhaps they had grown to avoid that kind of food. 

“Yeah, you’re probably too smart to fall for this kind of trick,” he said to one particular large boar that gave him an angry look that said ‘fuck off’. Luke gave a nervous smile and backed off, choosing to jog a ways into another area.

The smith had only asked for three boars, so he just needed to poison one more. He was supposed to deliver all the bodies to the smith, so that he could harvest them. Not for meat, obviously, but perhaps their tusks would be of some use. He found yet another boarling to poison, but he had to wait ten minutes for it to take the bait. It was just on the edge of being too old to die to that sort of poison, but it ended up taking the bait just like the others. 

With all three boars in tow, he made it back to the smith to drop off his ill gotten gains. “Here you go, now let’s see if I can complete another chore before I take a break…”  

He looked down at his list and saw that there was a fisherman by a nearby river that he was supposed to check up on.

The fisherman was the last one on the list. He had a rod in hand and waved at Luke as he approached. “You must be the help I sent for,” he said.

“Uh, I don’t know about that,” Luke replied. “I agreed to help with some chores, and you’re the last stop. What do you need?” 

“I just need you to help me sift through some nets. My fingers tire, you see.” 

“Alright then,” Luke said, as he started grabbing nets and pulling their contents out. It was messy work, but it didn’t take all that long. There was something strange among the contents, some kind of metal prize of sorts. It was like a locked box that was begging to be opened.  

“What the hell is this,” Luke asked the fisherman who shrugged. 

“I don’t know, but it’s mine. You think you can get it open? I would, but I don’t know how.”

“Yeah, sure,” he said, trying to pry it open. It wasn’t difficult, and it opened with a small click once he played with it a little. The lock must have been rusted or something. He didn’t bother looking inside, knowing that it didn’t matter since it wasn’t his to keep. 

He yawned, then said, “I guess I should go tell that old man that I finished his chores.” 

“Take this letter with you,” the fisherman told him.

“Alright, I will,” Luke replied, taking the letter in his hand. He’d such a long day that he didn’t know whether or not he wanted to deliver the letter but he supposed reporting back to the old man couldn’t wait until tomorrow.  

He felt like he had just gone through the step needed to reach a new level of status with the locals in this area. But did he want to get a reputation for doing a bunch of shitty jobs? He thought about this as he walked back into the forest, finding the old man right where they’d met. He handed over the letter and said, “I finished everything. If you need anything else, just let me know!” but he hurried away before he could be given any more chores.
