Ruby's Rainbow Location: Book of Lore -> March of the Slimes!, Location: March of the Slimes! -> To the War! -> Ruby's Rainbow Requirements: None Release Date: March 13th, 2026 Objective: Ruby's cooking up something strange. Stranger than usual, even! Objective completed: The slimes are raining all over Falconreach! While not particularly threatening, it's still up to you to clean them up... Experience rewarded: 0 Gold rewarded: 0 Monsters None NPCs Ruby Rudy Twilly Rewards None Dialogue *In Falconreach, Ruby is holding a shamrock near her pot as a part of her mysterious recipe; Ruby's water on pot is filled with rainbow color as she talks to herself despite hearing voices near the pot.* Ruby: What are you talking about? That's not the same at all! *Ruby puts a horseshoe on the pot.* Ruby: No, no, it's fundamentally different! What it's made of has no relevance! *Ruby puts a pot of gold on the pot.* Ruby: And who's the chef here? You're the one who needs my help, right? *Ruby puts a shooting star on the pot.* Ruby: Exactly! So make yourself useful or get out of the way! *Scene shifts right to focus on you, Twilly, and Rudy, who are watching Ruby.* Rudy: She's been like that for a few days now... <Character>: I mean... It is Ruby... Rudy: I know, I know, but trust me on this one! I have brotherly intuition! <Character>: Have you tried talking to her yourself? Rudy: You know how that goes. I care about her well-being, but not enough to be turned into her latest wacky culinary experiment. <Character>: Right... I understand your concern, Rudy, but I'm just not sure if this is something to be... more concerned about than usual. <Character>: What do you think, Twilly? Twilly: Hmm... Something is making the fur on my tail all prickly. Twilly: And if Rudy's moglin senses are tingling too, I think this might be something you should look into! <Character>: ...Something I should look into, huh? Twilly: Uh, I mean, we! I'll help too, outside of stir-frying range, of course. Rudy: Thank you so much, <Character>, Twilly! <Character>: No problem. I'll fetch <Dragon> and we can talk to Ruby for you. *You invite your dragon and Twilly as they talk to Ruby, who is pouring brown water on her pot from a barrel.* <Character>: Uh, hey there, Ruby, whatcha cookin'? Ruby: Oh! <Character>! Perfect timing! <Character>: Oh no. Ruby: Oh yes! You're just in time to help... <Character>: This was a bad idea, let's go, Twilly, <Dragon>. I think Rudy will have to figure this one out on his own. Ruby: ...help taste my latest creation! <Character>: ...Just taste? No fetching strange ingredients from halfway across Lore? Ruby: Just taste! Ruby: Shhh, it's going to be fine! <Dragon>: ? Twilly: Ruby, who are you talking to? Ruby: My latest culinary creation! *Interested in Ruby's current creation, you decided to ask more about it.* <Character>: ...Please, elaborate. I'm uh, dying to know more. Before I help taste it. Maybe. Ruby: Of course! Recently, I've been trying to taste all sorts of lucky things! Ruby: I've had clovers, horseshoes, pots of gold, shooting stars, and more! Ruby: But not the most ephemeral of all... The rainbow! <Character>: Rainbows are pretty, but I'm pretty sure they're just made of water. Ruby: No no no no! Rainbows are so colorful! Even if they're just water, that water has to taste like something! Ruby: Just imagine... each layer with its own unique flavor, blending into a delicious treasure... Ruby: Anyway, I'm just about done. My Supreme Rainbow Jelly just needs one last special ingredient! <Character>: I knew it! Ruby: ...That I just happen to have right here! Stand back, everyone! *Ruby puts her last ingredient—a crimson red droplet from her potion—on her pot; however, her recipe is acting strange.* Ruby: Hm. That's strange. Ruby: I expected something a— *Ruby's pot explodes, causing Falconreach to be invaded with slimes.* Ruby: Ah., <Character>, Twilly, <Dragon> (in unison): ... <Character>: Okay, <Dragon> and I are going to clean this up, but you owe us, Ruby. You owe us. Ruby: Of course, of course. Just try not to tenderize them too much! I can tell they're all still bursting with flavor! <Character>: You. <Character>: Owe. <Character>: Us. *You and your dragon leave the scene as they prepare to defend Falconreach.* Ruby: ... *A crimson red presence appears near Ruby's pot and the voices appears from it again as Ruby turns around to face her pot.* Ruby: Yes, yes, it's a promising start, but I still have to taste it before I make up my mind! *Scene cuts to black.* Complete Quest Other information After first completion, Book of Lore access points no longer directs you to this quest, but March of the Slimes! instead.
