The Spot Caps hold a seasonal festival eight times a year and have never let an outsider watch one. This time they invite you and Orvyn Argotte to dance with them. There is no food and no drink at a Spot Cap festival - only song, company, and a great deal of shaken-loose spore. You wake the next morning alone on the Moorne Head with a splitting head, no memory of the night, and no idea where Orvyn has gone. Retrace the wreckage the two of you left behind, make it right with everyone you wronged, and find your friend.
Getting started
Shining Leaves the Elder is outside his home and looking healthier than you have ever seen him. The grove around him is unusually busy.
Talk to Shining Leaves the Elder to take it on.
