Description
Stage 1

'Hullo! I see that you are a person who knows your way around the wilder parts of the world, and so the offer I have for you will surely make your heart leap! I represent Adso Haybank, an enterprising fellow from Buckland with a grand vision. A vision of building an inn along the Great East Road. He dispatched myself and these Men beside me in search of willing folk to assist him with his dream.

'I seek mushrooms found along the banks of the Brandywine River to the north, mushrooms to fill and satisfy the belly with a bit of Shire hospitality.

'Be wary if you go, though, for I have heard tell of slimy slugs and nasty vermin in the area. Would you collect some mushrooms for me?'

Wild mushrooms can be found along the eastern banks of the Brandywine River, north of Bucklebury.

Trumric Ragwort has asked you to gather wild mushrooms from the banks of the Brandywine River. He informed you that the mushrooms are to be used to help build a menu worthy of the Shire at Adso Haybank's inn.
