Quest dialogue
On acceptance
When I was young, I lost my brother to a plague.
Since then, I have taken up a career as a plague researcher.
Along the way, I've learned something interesting.
Rats are prevalent where a plague is starting to spread.
I've tried to find a relationship between rats and the plague,
but my colleagues just laughed at me.
I think I have to proceed with the research all by myself.
Could you do me a favor? I can't be away right now.
Go outside and catch a rat for research use.
No one in here has to know about this.
While in progress
Any news yet?
Rats in this city are bold, so if you see them, they're easy to catch.
On completion
Thank you. I'll do my best
not to squander your help.
