'${PLAYER}! Welcome, welcome. There are many enjoyable activities with which to celebrate the arrival of springtime, and many of them can be found right here at the Festival Grounds. I know you will have a good time.

'But if I might steal your ear for just a moment, could I ask you to help me with something? It is a small matter, a trifle really, but I am a bit concerned about a number of recent arrivals here at the Grounds. There are three of them, and they have been on the road for a long while. I am to understand they have made the journey all the way from Gondor? They call themselves herbalists, and while I would not turn anyone away, they have made themselves something of a nuisance here already. Could you make sure they are happy, and more importantly, that they do not bother my patrons with any more of their strange questions?

'I really appreciate this, ${PLAYER}! I'll see that you get some extra Spring Leaves for helping me out!'
