[Donovan]

Hello.

You're one of the adventurers from the mainland, right?

My name is Donovan,

sewer system manager.

There are so many problems

the Buffalo Bandits, the mine, just to name a couple?

that no one else cares about their own sewer system right now.

The Buffalo Bandits

need to be taken care of first.

The pipes are

clear of sea anemones at this moment.

Why don't you

come back later?

Ah, welcome back!

I've been thinking

it's time to

get rid of sea anemones again.

Oh, I see.

I understand.

But come back if you change your mind.

You know how to enter the basement, right?

Thank you for your help.

Oh, so you're

the adventurer who took care of the Buffalo Bandits!

Nice to meet you!

So, you're strong enough to

take care of the bandits.

Would you be so kind

as to help me with something?

[

- Alright, what can I do for you?

Oh, where are my manners?

I manage the underground water pump

and sewage system.

Groundwater keeps welling up

from the basement of the village,

and it has to be pumped out into the sea

to prevent flooding.

My job is to make sure

the pumps and sewage system are

in working order

at all times,

and it's not a job for just one man.

There are so many things to do

that I need help.

The work itself isn't complicated.

Could you help me?

Wow, thank you!

All you have to do is

go down to the basement

and get rid of sea anemones

on the pipes and water pump.

You can go down to the basement

by talking to

Joe, who's a bit east of here.

He'll let you

go down to the basement.

We call him Quiet Joe.

Go east,

and you'll see Joe.

if you tell him I sent you.

Ah, Adventurer, welcome back.

How was it, getting rid of sea anemones?

It wasn't too difficult, was it?

- No, it wasn't.

- It was boring, though.

Hah hah, it's a boring job, sure.

But it must not be boring to those sea anemones

because they spring up every day,

no matter how hard I try

to keep them in check.

Getting rid of them

takes up a lot of my time.

I could always use help getting rid of sea anemones.

Please come again.
