The Long Quest to Get Into the Bull Tribe
Before fighting the boss, you can explore to find a village of bulls, big, horny and musky bulls! There are some passages to get there:
- Explore the ravine east of the tavern, it will unlock a place south of it
- In that place, keep exploring until you hear some screaming for help (there’s a 25% chance): you will have to defeat 2 slimes in a row, but they are still easy. If you lose, you will have to find that guy again and retry. You can also find random slimes and even bulls as enemies here…yeah, I’ll wait for you to watch the defeat CG…there’s also one if you win, and a variant of that if you have at least 7 END (hidden check). Now that you are done… you will meet Thane, of the bull tribe, and will ask you, wolf of the tavern, to bring him 2 beers and 5 jerkies so he can “trust” and vouch for you to enter the tribe. You can also ask him how he got in trouble if you want.
- Buy 2 beers and 5 jerkies (160 coins total) and bring them to him; you get 300 EXP, and you can ask him to take you to his village during the day Note: I suggest exploring to find the village and trying to enter without him first: you will face 2 bulls in a row, they are pretty strong with their normal attacks and musk (lust damage), but they are very vulnerable to flirting). If you lose or run away, you won’t be able to fight them again! They can’t trigger CG scenes either, but, if you win, you get a free level up point.
- When you are ready, let him take you to his tribe, where you will meet the chief, and he will ask you to kill the spy, an interesting quest, see down below. You won’t be able to visit the village freely until you complete “the spy” quest. Note: you can “talk about the fog” with Snow to tell him you found the bull village now. Also, if you lose against the slimes, Thane dies and the whole bull village, along with the quests and the related storyline will become locked forever!! Meeting Thane also unlocks some extra jobs from Chet to make some extra cash and EXP, I’m listing all those in the extra section at the bottom of the guide.
