Are you ready for chaos? Mayhem? No? WELL GOOD. It is time for the FINAL TEST OF YOUR PROOF AS A VILLAGER EGGSTRACTOR.
- On top of the highest hill through the highest mountain peak is the rarest of eggs, the Giant Snake egg. If you bring this home, then you have proven your worth as the greatest eggstractor of them all.
Step 1: Climb the mountain - You're already used to this part. Get going! Climb up that mountain and see what you're made of. Oh wait, right, we forgot to mention. The reason why you need a wyvern egg is you have to replace that egg with the Giant Snake Egg you need to get. That way the parent giant snake doesn't notice!
- As you climb the mountain, roll 1d4. Match your dice roll to the result below.
1: You break your wyvern egg! Sorry, you have to obtain another one.. 2. You manage to climb with relative ease. Something watches you in the distance. 3. You trip and stumble but save your egg! -10 HP for your character 4. You accidentally stumble into a giant cloud of miasma! Add +5 to your miasma meter.
Step 2: Replacing the egg
Finally you reach the base of the mountain with a [i 400 foot giant snake guarding its pile of eggs in the center. You must slowly sneak and take the Giant Snake egg, replacing it with the wyvern one. Roll 1d100 to see how quiet you were. If you roll 30 or less, you get eaten. You die and dissipate back to base camp. The good news is you still have your wyvern egg (must start quest again). Otherwise, continue onwards.
Step 3: New egg friend and you
At this point you no longer have your wyvern egg. You only have this Giant Snake Egg. So that means if you destroy your giant snake egg on the way back, you have to obtain a new wyvern egg from the previous eggstraction quest. The giant snake egg has 10 HP.
A pair of very hungry velicoraptor-like creatures seem to have found you and follow the egg hungrily! They have 10 HP. You only need to defeat one to move on (per group!) Every time you or ANYONE in the group rolls double dice (1, 1, 2, 2, etc) you take -2 damage to your egg, otherwise it takes no damage.
At the very end where the base camp is, there is a giant waterfall. You have no choice, you have to jump down! Roll 1d6 to see how much damage your egg takes. Good luck!

Fia stared up at the mountain. The peaks of it barely showed through with the fog, only visible when a gust of wind temporarily knocked the fog away. She was there, holding the wyvern egg she managed to collect. Apparently, the villagers hadn't want to eat it. Instead, she was to exchange the egg in place of another. "Great... Another trek up a mountain due to an egg..."
With a sigh, she started up the mountain again. The trips up the mountain were at least getting easier. Soairse had shown her what to do the first time. The second time she used what she learned. This time... Fia was pretty sure her skills were not perfect, but at least going up was not difficult. She still continued to use the trees to keep her from tripping or falling over. Fia could not be more thankful to her new acquaintance.
Fia couldn't help but be thankful for her boots as well. She looked down at the black boots covered in mud. There was a chance she could have chosen sandals to take a walk with, but her boots were always her favorite. "You'll get a good clean and shine when these are over.. Maybe a new accessory too!"
The horsewoman was really starting to miss home, but maybe with this quest, the villagers would show her the way home.
As the terrain became more and more rough, Fia couldn't help but feel like something was watching her. She couldn't tell what it was with the dense fog, but the feeling would keep the Horsewoman alert. She's come all this way with the egg and wasn't about to lose it now.

Technically, Fia's aim wasn't to lose the egg, but replace it with a new, possibly better egg? If the villagers had her go through two other previous quests before this one, it had to be important, right?
Fia made it to where the giant snake was. She could see it sleeping, all 400 feet of it. Now, she just had to be quiet and not wake it up while exchanging the eggs. Easy enough, right? Fia looked down at her boots and looked at the heels. Those would not let her be that quiet.
Gently placing down the egg, she sat down and pulled off her boots, placing them behind a tree. They would be easy enough to slip back on once she'd completed the switch. Fia did not want her lovely footwear to be the demise of the quest.
Quickly, she went over and picked up the snake egg with her left hand while replacing the wyvern egg with her right. Fia noticed that the snake shifted just a tad, but nothing to give away her presence. Once the snake egg was safely with her, Fia rushed back, put on her shoes and headed off.

Fia knew this was too easy. She summoned her bow in her left hand and held the egg in her right. In front of her, a velicoraptor looked hungrily at her egg. No way was she letting it get it now.
The velicoraptor and Fia stared at each other eye-to-eye, waiting to see who made the first move.

The velicoraptor was the first to make a move. It ran towards Fia's right hand which gripped the egg just slightly. Fia would try and defend something as fragile as the egg.
When the velicoraptor was close enough, Fia went on her left knee, tucked in her right hand and egg under her left arm, and used her bow as a shield. She pushed the velicoraptor back just enough so she could deliver a close kick with her right leg, sending it hurtling back.
Fia knew she had done some damage, but the velicoraptor was still roaring and ready to go.

Fia watched as the velicoraptor came towards here again, but this time, it was too slow. She had tucked the egg into her hanfu and let loose an arrow. It mostly grazed the velicoraptor, but the thing was increasingly slower.
"I can't wait for this to be over..."

The Horsewoman was tired of this. She wanted to go home and either work on more jewelry pieces or meditate. Fia had no more desire to be fighting anymore random egg things. Why couldn't she just give in and give the damn egg to those things?!
"No... I've come too far for the villagers now!" Fia was hoping the villagers would appreciate her more after this, but... Who knows. They were unpredictable.
Fia let loose a final shot at the velicoraptor. This time, the damage was to one of its legs. She hoped that it wouldn't lead to its death, but the plus side was that it couldn't follow her anymore.

Fia had started running after defeating the velociraptor. She didn't want to give it a chance to catch up to her. Protecting eggs were growing to be more tiring. She was ready to release all the tension caused by the fighting when she saw the base camp and what she would have to do in order to get there.
She had to jump down a waterfall.
"I hope this is safe..." Fia didn't fear heights, she didn't trust things that couldn't be proven as safe. The village trip as a whole hadn't seem very 'safe', so what did she have to lose?
Fia hugged the egg delicately yet firmly against her body. She didn't want to lose the egg now. With a running start, she jumped over the edge and felt the air and water surrounding her. Fia had to admit that moment seemed kind of exciting. It kind of felt like flying. She didn't know if she'd be up for doing it again.
It only took a few seconds for her to feel herself hit the water at the bottom. She quickly used her legs to swim up for air. Fia could feel the egg still safely near her chest, so she used one arm and her legs to kick her to shore.
She stood up on the banks of the water and held the egg in her left hand. "All that trouble for you." Fia didn't regret it. The only thing now was that she was wet and cold. Really, bloody cold...
