Quests: Even More Gullible's Travels

Kiki was in Kazham this weekend, and dropped in to see Magriffon at the bed and breakfast there. He once again spent all his money helping others in need (this time a maiden in distress), and needed some help to keep from getting kicked out of his lodgings before his "top-secret" mission has been completed. Kiki's a bit suspicious of him, since she's given him quite a lot of money in the past, but he's such a charming young Elvaan that he's difficult to resist. So Kiki forked over 20,000 gil, and Magriffon gave her a treasure map in return.

Kiki took the map and headed into Yuhtunga Jungle and found the 3 locations marked on the map, but instead of treasure, she only found giant Blue Rafflesia flowers. She got three jars of Rafflesia Nectar from these, and got covered with pollen in the process. The third one made her quite dizzy as well.

She headed back to town, and Magriffon had already forgotten about the treasure map, but told her she could sell the nectar to a shop. All of the Mithra in town seemed quite repulsed by her scent from the pollen, but the Opo-Opo seemed to adore her now. A nice Mithra Beastmaster, Vuih Stecoppah, explained that the Opo-Opo thought Kiki smelled like the jungle, and Kiki should be able to give them presents and they would reward her. Vuih also said that Kiki had to be careful to observe the strict heirarchy of the Opo-Opo tribe, and make sure to give the presents in the proper order. The first Opo-Opo wants a Broken Mithran Rod, so Kiki will have to return to Kazham later, after she's able to break one.
