Rekindling the Flame Pt.2
Back at Wishvale
If you have gone through enough battles, the yield should be ready at the fields. Go back and check your harvest. The group will now decide to build a Ranch. So let’s make a Ranch.
I assigned the Hunter-Like Youth to the ranch. After which, I spoke to him to get him to raise chicken. Add 2 chickens to the menu and go out do some battles. I am doing the Master of Power quests simultaneously. It takes about 6 fights to get an yield. Once you have two yields you will need to build a house. This will lead to another cutscene which will teach you about Radiant Cornerstones. They are used to upgrade buildings.
Once you are done updating the hub/Tavern. You need to place 20 decorations. Once that is done, you will receive the next part of the Rekindling the Flame quest. Part 2 as it is. You have to head to Rippletide, which is a level 20 area.
Head to Rippletide
To get to Rippletide, head east towards North Theatropolis Plains. From there head south east towards Theatropolis Plains. From there take the path east by the sea. You will now be at North Rippletide Coast.
There is a chest in this area near the house in the center of the map.
The south western path past the bridge leads to Rippletide. But first there is a red chest on the beach in the south. It contains a Wind Amulet.
Heading into Rippletide Coast, you will find a Red Chest containing a War Spear.
There is a blue chest to the west of the save point.
There is a chest on the beach that contains an Olive of Life. The path south west leads to the Highlands Region. The western path leads to Rippletide. You can contend with the Confident Fisherwoman for some loot. The Sailor Turned merchant sells Pig here with a 83% chance to haggle. Get it if you can for the Ranch.
You can try and invite Le Mann to Wishvale at the east part of the pier. Cross the small bridge and talk to Illian to start the quest.
Build a Large House
Before heading back to WIshvale, lets explore the rest of Rippletide. There is a quest at the bottom of the pier – A Stubborn Master.
We can come back for this later. There is also a Red Chest at the north hidden part of town.
Finally, at the end of town you can talk to Olneo the Merchant to meet Tressa.
Encounter with Tressa
Speak to the busy shopkeep
Before you leave the house, buy the Lettuce Seed from Marina. She also has a Dragon Scarf which seems like an OP trinket for 25000 Leaves or a 3% chance to get it at 13000. Regardless head to the Theatropolis to speak to the Busy Shopkeep. At Theatropolis speak to the Soldier Guarding Entrance to get a Helmcleaver Mastery.
Speak to the Busy Shopkeep in the town square. Watch the cutscenes unfold.
Speak to the idle shopkeep
Head up the stairs and speak to the idle shopkeep.
Speak to the busy shopkeep
It’s getting ridiculous now but go back and speak to the busy shopkeep. This will now culminate into a battle with ACDAM. Ofcourse. Once the fight is done, head back to Rippletide. Before that invite the Smithy Apprentice back to Wishvale.
Head to Colzione Family Provisioners
Back at Rippletide invite Tressa to join your party.
Build a Large House (continued)
Build a large house from the construction menu.
Invite Illian and Olive
Head back to Rippletide to invite Illian and Olive.
Move Illian and Olive’s family into the Large House
Head back to Wishvale and move the family into the large house. Doing this will get the final stage of getting to Level 3.
Invite 15 people to Wishvale
Once this is done your town will become level 3. And complete Rekindling the Flame Pt2.
You can clear 6 Debris up and then you will have to build 10 facilities to get to the next stage of the quest. And then you have to invite 20 people to come live in Wishvale. Let’s go back to Rippletide to finish the sidequest from earlier.
A Stubborn Master
If you have accepted the quest go to the pier north of town. Talk to the guy there.
Speak with the fisherman’s daughter
Go back to the daughter.
Search for someone with an interest in fish
Go to the Tavern now. You can invite the Traveling Writer here to come live at Wishvale – who was my 20th citizen. We will get back to that in a bit.
Speak with the fisherman’s daughter
Go back to the daughter again.
Find someone who meets the requirement
Head to Theatropolis and talk to the man near the bench. Or rather use Inquire on him. Haggle the price down and hire him.
Take the young man to the Fisherman’s daughter
Now go back to Rippletide. Watch the ending play out and you will receive a Rainbow Shell Charm and Quality Whiskey for your trouble.
Back at Wishvale
If you have 20 residents in Wishvale now you will see the next part of the town building story.
Set up Margot’s farming tools
Build the tool from the construction menu under Decorations (Special)
Set up Margot’s Food Trough
Same for the Food trough.
This will then trigger Rekindling the Flame Pt. 3
