Stage 1 Minimum Level: 1750 Location:Troll Toll Fields (9, 5) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You have entered another section of this strange forest and are wondering what you'll encounter here. As you wander through the forest you see the place is full of aggressive Billy Goats. Soon, you hear a deep, guttural noise that nevertheless sounds like someone, or someTHING, is very sad. You cautiously enter a clearing in the forest. What you see there brings you up short in disbelief. A colossal, despondent Troll sits there, weeping gently.

Stage 2 Minimum Level: 1750 Location:Troll Toll Fields (9, 5) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You cautiously approach the gigantic Troll. He hears something and cries out, cowering away from you. Perplexed, you start talking to him quietly, not making any threatening movements, hands out and palms up to show him they are empty. The colossal troll starts crying all the harder. 'Those mean billy goats and their leader, Big Billy Gruff, have been beating me up and stopping me from doing my job of running the toll bridge.' He sniffles before starting to bawl again. 'They destroyed the bridge! I'm gonna be in so much trouble!'

Stage 3 Minimum Level: 1750 Location:Troll Toll Fields (9, 5) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You spend some time sitting with the troll, calming him down and assuring him that you are not with the billy goats. The Troll looks down at you. 'All I want to do is work the toll bridge. But they won't let me. They beat me up and once Big Billy Gruff and some of the herd went across, they broke my bridge!' The Troll nods. 'Yeah. Big Billy is the herd leader. He went across the bridge and then the herd broke it up.' Tears start to well up in the Troll's eyes again but you say 'I could rebuild your bridge for you. And drive off the Billy Goats.' The Troll looks down at you, eyes glistening. 'Really? You'll do that for me?' You nod. 'Yes. It sounds like something has gone seriously wrong here. By helping you, I think I might be able to fix the problem. First, the bridge.' The troll looks worried. 'The goats took piece of the bridge with them so I couldn't fix it myself.' You smile at the worried expression on the Trolls big face. You're really not used to trolls talking with you or crying instead of just trying to eat you. 'Leave the goats to me. Stay here and hide if any of them come looking for you.' The troll nods and tries to hide rather unconvincingly behind a tree. You receive 'Blueprint of Repaired Bridge'.

Stage 4 Minimum Level: 1750 Location:Troll Toll Fields (9, 10) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You've gathered up bits of bridge from the billy goats and reinforced it with the magic of the lute neck and strings. That magic will turn the ruined bridge into a whole one again. The magic released by the materials you've collected does it's job and before your eyes, the bridge is repaired. With that done, you know you are going to have to subdue Big Billy Gruff. With that in mind, you figure a magical lasso made from the bard's lute strings might work! You receive 'Recipe of Enchanted Lasso'.

Stage 5 Minimum Level: 1750 Location:Troll Toll Fields (9, 5) Required Item: None Required Kills: 1 x Big Billy Gruff (Elite)

You return to the Troll with a lassoed Big Billy Gruff in tow. The Troll recoils at the sight of Gruff and yelps! You hold out your hand to the Troll. 'It's okay, it's okay! I've used the magic that twisted Gruff here and returned him to normal. He's perfectly happy and he can be your friend. With the magic broken, the Goat Herds are all back to normal too.' You hand the end of the lasso to the Troll who takes it hesitatingly. Big Billy Gruff walks over to the Troll and butts his head against him affectionately. The corrupting magic has been purged from him entirely. A big, happy smile breaks across the Troll's face. He gives Gruff a scratch. You say 'The bridge is repaired as well. You can go back to a peaceful life!' The Troll grins at you. 'Thank you for helping me. You're a proper hero! Because you helped, I won't charge you to cross the bridge ever!' He beams at you. You thank him and take your leave. You receive 19,539,768 XP.
