2. 'Say Help' to open the goal.

Task 1: Dread or Alive
1. Complete tasks 1 - 10.

Task 2: Seek And Find
1. This task requires two players and involves taking turns moving your way through a puzzle. Assign one player as player 1
and the other as player 2. Player 1 is the one who needs the task done. If both need it, you will need to switch roles and
do the puzzle again for the second person. Do not follow each other. Begin at repop and try to move quickly, as repop will
reset the puzzle. As you will be in different rooms for most of the task, you might also find it useful to make an alias
that sends 'pull chain;gtell Chain pulled.' or similar, to more easily communicate when steps are being taken. Pacify or
banish/disintegrate can help you move more quickly if you have the stats for them.
A. Both start in 'Entering the Gates' (40150).

*You can collect various types of seeds by killing the birds (thrasher, quail, finch, sparrow, etc.) throughout the outdoor
sections of the area. They are random drop.

*You will need to plant (drop) these seeds in the grove to grow fruits. However, the aggressive mobs around that section
(ants, termites, lumberjacks, etc.) will ruin the plants if they enter the room while the plants are growing.

*Thus, the basic steps needed to make the food items are these:
A. Collect seeds by killing birds.
B. Go to the grove and quickly clear all mobs. Banish staves might prove useful here.
C. Drop seeds in each empty room.
D. While you wait for fruits to grow over the next tick or two, be careful to watch out for any more mobs that might
wander in and clear them quickly.
E. Collect fruits off the ground. One plant will sometimes produce multiple sets of fruit before wilting. Also note: to
make raisins, grow grapes and let them lie on the ground for an extra tick or two.
F. Go to an old groundskeeper in 'An Old Work Shed' (40302) with the necessary fruits in inventory and say which item he
should make (e.g., to make olive oil, have 20 olives in inventory and 'say Olive oil').

Rewards:
1. You will no longer need to buy/maintain the torch to get through the area.
