[b]Mages Required:[/b] 1 mage only
[b]Reward:[/b] 4000 Jewel
[b]Request description:[/b] I've got these very delicate, prize birds, see? They're renown everywhere for their feathers. I usually ship 'em in from far away without any hassles. But then, just before the carriage gets to Magnolia, a bunch of ne'er do wells always waylay my cargo and strip the birds of their feathers. That usually ends up killing the birds. Well, now, I've got some cargo for a very important client of mine, see? To host for the fair which comes up in the next two weeks. And I don't dare 'not deliver'. Your mission is to ensure that these thugs don't have their way, this time.
[b]Request details:[/b] Meet Dobbes outside his house, where he will give you details concerning the mission. You are then expected to head out of Magnolia and locate the 'cargo', and then escort it back into Magnolia. Watch out for the crooks. There's rumor they've got a mage in their ranks; he's a novice and can be easily cowed, but they say he's kind of tough.
