Master Barnsmill: Oh, hello there traveler. Sorry about the commotion, been trying to fix this damn machine for days now. So what brings you to Barnsy Barnsmill the IV? Let me guess, whiskey?

› That's right, looking for a bottle of the famous Mistywood Dew. →

Master Barnsmill: Or infamous, depending on how you look at it. This machine of mine churns out tons of the stuff, but it's... an acquired taste. The locals have grown to love it though.

› Continue →

Master Barnsmill: But if you're looking for a bottle now, I have some bad news for you, mate. I've sold my stock and the distiller's broken. I tried to optimize the pressure, improve on the product you know? Got a bit too confident and blew this tank instead.

› But I really need that whiskey... →

› So can you fix it? →

Master Barnsmill: Need it? I hope you aren't one of those poor drunks addicted to the stuff. In any case, there isn't more until I get the machine running again. If you're really that keen, maybe you could help.

› What can I do? →

Master Barnsmill: It's simple actually. All we need is to bang the chamber wall back into place, but for that we need a tool that's not gonna break on us. If there's someone around with something like that, it'll be Forvan.

› Continue →

Master Barnsmill: Forvan's the blacksmith in Haywind, best smith around these parts for sure, so he'll know what to do. Look for his forge outside the northern gates of Haywind and let him know I owe him a case of whiskey. That ought to do the trick.

› Okay, I'll see what I can do. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› What's the quickest way to get there? →

› What's the story behind the whisky anyway? →

› How does the distiller contraption work? →

Master Barnsmill: You'll probably have to go west and through the city; head north from Haywind marketplace and you shouldn't have trouble finding him.

› Okay, I'll see what I can do. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› Okay, I'll see what I can do. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Ooh well it all started with with my great-great-grandfather Barnsy Barnsmill the second. He was a bit of a tinker you see and he loved whiskey. Now, it was during the time of the Great Whiskey Shortage of the last century...

› How exciting. →

› Let's get back to the distiller. How does it work exactly? →

› Actually, tell me how to get to Forvan's forge. →

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Oh yeah! So whiskey prices were really high in Imberthale, while in neighboring Melloria they were pretty low. So people were traveling all the way across the border to buy whiskey! Let me tell you, whiskey prices... it's crazy stuff.

› What happened then? I'm on the edge of my seat here with these whiskey prices. →

› Let's get back to the distiller. How does it work exactly? →

› Actually, tell me how to get to Forvan's forge. →

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Well, good olde Barnsy Barnsmill got sick of it all and decided to make his own whiskey. Being the inventor that he was, he came up with this very special distiller. It could churn out such quantities of whiskey so fast that we were able to cart it off to Melloria and undercut our competition! Can you imagine?

› Your family must have made a fortune. →

› Let's get back to the distiller. How does it work exactly? →

› Actually, tell me how to get to Forvan's forge. →

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› Enlightening, but I should get on with the task at hand. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Aye but we're simple whiskey people, don't need too much in the way of luxuries. Granted, some of our family have used the whiskey fortunes to build impressive estates elsewhere. But I prefer to stay right here where it all started, making the very same whiskey my great-great-grandfather made.

Master Barnsmill: Now that's a family secret! But I can tell you it's powered by the massive windmill outside. It houses an intricate system of pipes that make their way down here to the distiller and provide it with all the water and pressure and stuff it needs.

› What...? →

› Um. So what's the story behind the whiskey then? →

› Okay, so what's the best way to get to Forvan's forge. →

› Never mind, I should get on with the task at hand. (Whiskey Pressures: starts the quest) (end)

› Never mind, I should get on with the task at hand. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Try not to think about it too much. To laymen it all seems like magic anyway. The important thing to understand is that it just works.

› Um, so what's the story behind the whiskey then? →

› Okay, so what's the best way to get to Forvan's forge. →

Master Barnsmill: It's not like I haven't tried but the chamber walls are cast from hardened Imbersteel. The idea is that Imbersteel wouldn't break, basically ever, but once it gives... Well, it's really hard to shape back together. You can ask my hammers all about it.

› But I really need that whiskey... →

Master Barnsmill: Pressure's still tanking, something must be wrong with the pipes. Check on the windmill outside while I fix things down here, would you?

› Continue →

Master Barnsmill: If you see any broken pipes up there, you can try to fix them with the spare parts from crates at the base of the windmill. Pull the lever at the top once you get everything in order and it should get the machine running again.

› Alright. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Flipping egg mate, you did it! The whiskey taps are running again and you've certainly earned your bottle. Tell you what, take this too...

› Continue →

Master Barnsmill: It's the recipe for an experiment I did a while back. Tried to come up with a new kind of liquor, but the stuff ended up tasting like a horse urinated in it. It's incredibly flammable though, so maybe an adventurer like you can find an alternative use for it.

› Alright, thanks. →

› Hold on, shouldn't the whiskey age before it's ready? →

Master Barnsmill: No, thank you. And remember friend; if you ever run out of whiskey, you're welcome here any time.

Whiskey Pressures: completes the quest

› I'll keep that in mind. Take care, Barns. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Nah, not the way this machine does it. Trust me, Mistywood Dew is perfect as it is.

› I'm beginning to wonder if this can be whiskey at all... →

› Um, if you say so... thanks anyway. →

Master Barnsmill: Heh, you wouldn't be the only one mate. But for most people, it does the trick.

› Alright, thanks. →

Master Barnsmill: Greetings, friend! Whiskey machine's churning better than ever before, thanks to you. Now, how can I help?

› I was hoping to buy whiskey. (opens Barnsy's Distillery) (end)

› Nothing for now, take care Barns. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Yes?

› Got back from Forvan's forge. He came up with a special hammer that should do the trick. →

› What should I do again? →

› Just curious, what's the story behind the whiskey anyway? →

› Wondering how a machine like this can possibly produce whiskey. →

› Nothing right now. (end)

Master Barnsmill: That's terrific news! Let's see if it will get the plating back to place. Want to have the honors?

› Sure. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Find the smith Forvan in northern Haywind and ask him for a tool that will help us fix this chamber wall that blew loose. Tell him I'll owe him a case of whiskey, that ought to soften him up.

› And how do I get to his forge, exactly? →

› What's the story behind the whiskey anyway? →

› So how does this distiller work? →

› Alright. (end)

Master Barnsmill: Oh, what now?! Pressure's tanking? Something's wrong with the pipes... Check on the windmill outside while I fix things down here, would you?

› Continue →

Master Barnsmill: If you see any broken pipes up there, try to fix them with the spare parts from crates at the base of the windmill. Pull the lever at the top once you get everything in order and it should get the machine running again.

› Alright. (Whiskey Pressures: advances to phase 4) (end)

Master Barnsmill: You fix the chamber wall and I'll get the machine ready.
