Level/Quest/Items required: Completion of The Great Guber Release Date: October 7th, 2016 Objective: Head over to Croft and see what the sisters have in store for you this time! Objective completed: Time to get the necessary ingredients! Scaled Yes/No: No Experience rewarded: 0 Gold rewarded: 0 Monsters None NPCs Bubble (Cat/Witch) Verlyrus Rewards None Dialogue *You take a hike in the forests of Doomwood to travel to Croft once again during the Mogloween festivities, feeling more optimistic about the year.* <Character>: With everything fixed last year, time to get to the trick-or-treating! I can't wait to try on the new masks! *You reach a portion of the woods where Croft should be, but all you see up ahead this time is a large, empty clearing.* <Character>: Hmm... *You look around the clearing and even the empty farmland in an attempt to search for any sign of Croft with your optimism slowly starting to drop.* <Character>: Huh... <Character>: Am I too early? *You walk over to a cliffside and take a seat to contemplate and wait for Croft's arrival.* <Character>: This is odd. <Character>: I must be too early... *A few hours later (yes, you have waited for THAT long). Upon realizing that Croft isn't arriving, your suspicions then kick in.* <Character>: Something is definitely wrong here. *You make your way to Amityvale and you enter Verlyrus's cabin. There, you catch he and Bubble staring at a wide-eyed mouse, ready to pounce should it emerge.* <Character>: Umm... <Character>: Am I interrupting? Bubble: Oh! *Bubble stands up to greet you with a warm smile on her face.* Bubble: <Character>! Hi! Verlyrus: Meow! Bubble: We were just... Bubble: ... chasing... Bubble: Nevermind... Bubble: What brings you here? <Character>: It's Mogloween. Bubble: Yes, I know, but... Bubble: I still haven't found a cure for the Moglins. I was going to visit Croft in a few weeks- I'm this close to figuring it out, I swear! Bubble: I just didn't want to let them down... and my sisters too... <Character>: Well, here is the thing- Bubble: Yes, of course, you are right... I didn't accomplish much this year, but I should still visit them as soon as possible. Bubble: We can all figure this out! <Character>: No, there's- Bubble: I said I'd go, okay?! Why are you- <Character>: Bubble! *Bubble looks at you sternly as your impatience surfaces.* <Character>: Croft didn't appear! *Bubble turns to shock when she realizes what you are here for.* Bubble: W-what? <Character>: I went there, as usual, and it wasn't... there. I've waited and waited, and nothing. Bubble: It should be there, today's the 1st of Mogtober... <Character>: Well, it isn't there this year. Bubble: I need to see for myself. Verly, come on. Verlyrus: Nyan! Bubble: Don't nyan me! Let's go! *The three of you leave Amityvale and walk through the Doomwood forests again and arrive at the clearing where Croft should materialize onto the physical world.* Bubble: Hmm. Bubble: Why would... ? Bubble: No. They couldn't have... ? <Character>: What? What is going on? Are your sisters in trouble? Talk to me! Bubble: If Croft didn't appear on this plane... then it is still in Apsaydaaun. As are my siblings. But... why?! <Character>: Upside... down? Bubble: My home. Our home. A dark realm existing parallel to this one. Think of it like the Void... but different. Bubble: It occupies the same spatial dimensions as countless other planes, but while there is nothing in the Void... Bubble: ... in Apsaydaaun there's a reflection of all of this. Just more... umm... sweet. Bubble: In Mogtober, when the veil between that plane and this one is thin, a portion of Apsaydaaun materializes itself in this very place. Bubble: Which could either be via natural reasons or... they are allowing it to appear. Bubble: It's a realm full of terror, <Character>, let me tell you that... *shudders* <Character>: I get the impression you don't like it there. Isn't it your home though? Bubble: I like this place more, <Character>. <Character>: Alright... then why is Croft still there? Bubble: I think... they are preventing it from materializing. <Character>: They, they, they! Who are THEY?! Bubble: No point in explaining. <Character>: Why?! Bubble: Because you are going to find out. <Character>: Huh? Bubble: I am going to send you over. To Apsaydaaun. Bubble: Two can play at this game. If they are keeping it from getting here... then I will help you get there! Bubble: To do that, I'll need to make the most powerful treat in existence. A treat...with 999% of sugar! The Plaguenog! Bubble: The timing is absolutely perfect, it's a full moon! I'll just need you to gather the ingredients for me. <Character>: Of course you do. Bubble: Goremel, fearmint, chuckielate, trickorice and gutterscotch. Once you've obtained all five, you'll need a passage circle to get there. Bubble: I can draw one for you, but I'll need a Sinnomen Stick to do it-so you'll have to get one of those as well. <Character>: Right... Bubble: And finally, the most important condition of all. For any of this to work... you'll need to be on the verge of death. <Character>: Huh? Bubble: Unless you aren't, drinking the Plaguenog and activating the passage circle won't do anything. Bubble: Only when all conditions are met can you cross over to Apsaydaaun. <Character>: Oh... Bubble: Yeah. <Character>: "On the verge of death"... meaning I need- Bubble: I mean, like, 10-20% HP left on your health bar. <Character>: ... my what? Bubble: Please, <Character>, you need to hurry! <Character>: Yes, right away! *You set foot off the empty clearing to look for the ingredients for the Plaguenog needed for the ritual to transport you to Apsaydaaun.* Complete Quest
