Our resident Wanderer

Several of our secrets center around our resident wanderer. Unfortunately, like a few of our residents, she's a bit loony. Forgetful, even, or maybe she's just too distracted by tasks she's meant to complete or events replaying in her head.

Oh! You haven't found her hiding place. She IS in the Shire, but she's a bit fearful of places too public. My theory is that she was exploring the cave and managed to fall down a bit of a hole. If you're interested in finding her, you oughta have a bit of extra weight you can take, and go visit that jerk Waktai the Avenger. He keeps his pee in a "vase." I wish HE'd move out of Rhone, but noone's had the heart to kick him out.

Anyway, once you take care of his vase (gross), you can see the hole hiding behind it. You'll get cheered up a bit by the nifty glowy stone, and while that's not the thing you want to take with you, you might want to move it up a bit. Somewhere in there is a hella heavy bronze hand that you need to put on a certain statue in a certain cave if you want to meet a certain wanderer.

Once you replace the broken hand and fall through the trapdoor, you'll see a dirty dirty girl. This is the wanderer you've been searching for. Unfortunately, all she wants is shiny stuff. Fortunately, she doesn't collect mad amounts of pc, or anything even very rare. She likes the weirdest things. She likes a craptastic boring silver ring that a couple of folks have. One's a babysitter of sorts who lives in Hylar. Easier than that is to go beat up a bunch of gully dwarves and take their eating utensils. There are some in the museum in Pesvint, and a couple through a foggy patch off the path southeast of Hylar. For these things, she gives you some Giggleberry juice. Yummmm! But it's best used for things other than tasting... If you find the right gem, you'll impress the socks off of her. The right gem will help her realize how dedicated to the shire you are, and she'll give you a useful device (it's a pipe, an impresario's favorite smoking implement) for getting to Rhea quickly in case of a raid.

Uh, that's all for now.
