Quest chain

It's difficult to maintain equipment. One must oil metal equipment to prevent it from rusting, not to mention carrying the oil around all the time. But there's a handy item for oiling. It's the oily hide of Hornboars. It is so saturated with oil, one can rub a suit of armor dozens of times and still find their hands soaked with oil. The only inconvenient part of it is the smell of Hornboar oil. Haha. What? Oh no, I don't have any. I just heard of them while I was in the city last time. They think Rageboar oil is better than Hornboar oil. Can you hunt **Rageboars** and collect **Smelly Hides** to take them to **Panteon** ? Panteon is at Rupert Village, by the lake over the southern hill. They’re going to treat the hides there before sending them to Mirod.

## Dialogue

**Open**

Are these the fat skins of rabid wild boars? A terrible smell. I don't want my stuff to stink like that... Perhaps I should think about how to get rid of the smell.
