== Walkthrough == | |||
Note: In order to receive this quest, the Strange Ox must have survived both [[Druid Grove|the Grove]] and [[Last Light Inn]], and must not have been attacked the party at Last Light Inn. | |||
The Strange Ox can be found in Rivington inside a stable near the [[Requisitioned Barn]] (X:41, Y:-143). An arcana check will indicate that the Ox is indeed the strange Ox from past encounters. Using [[Speak With Animals]] will allow its quest to be undertaken. The Ox will state it is delighted to see the party and say it is trying to get into the city proper. After this, the following options will appear: | |||
* Not until you tell me exactly what you are. | |||
* I suppose so. What form will you take? | |||
* Maybe some kind soul might. But not me. | |||
=== Smuggle the Ox === | |||
[[File:Devilish Ox Apple.jpg|thumb|The Strange Ox transforms into an apple.]] | |||
If "I suppose so. What form will you take?" is chosen, the Ox will transform into a [[Strange Apple]], which the party can pick up. The apple will remain until the party reaches the [[Lower City]]. After which, it will disappear, leaving behind a note. | |||
=== Attack the Strange Creature === | |||
[[File:Devilish Ox Ooze.jpg|thumb|The Strange Ox transforms into an ooze.]] | |||
If "Not until you tell me exactly what you are," the Ox will tell the party they do not want to go down that road. The following choices will appear: | |||
* I assure you I do. Tell me what you really are, or I'll strike you down myself. | |||
* Fine. I'll help you. Let us leave it at that. | |||
* Then you go your way, and I'll go mine. | |||
If "I assure you I do. Tell me what you really are, or I'll strike you down myself." is chosen, then the Ox will transform into a level 9 ooze. Once the ooze is defeated, it will drop a [[Hat of Fire Acuity]], [[Shapeshifter's Boon Ring]], [[Diamond]], and [[Jade]]. | |||
== Consequences == | |||
If the Ox is smuggled into the city, it will act as an ally in the final battle against the [[Elder Brain]]. As such, an entry is added to [[Gather Your Allies]] noting its support. | |||
