Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

Burly Researcher: You look strong, sturdy, and─most importantly─idle. Which is a wonderful coincidence, as I'm in need of a spare pair of hands. Let me explain.
Burly Researcher: I sent one of my younger colleagues off to the Aesthete's Tholos to organize a shipment of ore...but after a second glance at the order sheet, I realized why it was taking him so blasted long.
Burly Researcher: Seems the order was more than triple the size we usually handle─something to do with all these large-scale preparations, I suppose. And I can hardly expect that pup to shift it all on his lonesome.
Burly Researcher: Come and pitch in with the hauling, and I'll make it worth your while. What say you?
Burly Researcher: Good. Many hands make light work─well, lighter, at least. Let's go.

Speak with the light built lab assistant

Lightly Built Lab Assistant: Please tell me you're the help I was promised...
Lightly Built Lab Assistant: Oh, thank the stars! My supervisor came past not a moment ago and scooped up half the ore himself. I swear he's part forest troll... But even so, I don't think I can manage the rest without doing myself an injury.
Lightly Built Lab Assistant: Listen, if I take this crate, do you think you could carry that other load? Once you have it settled into a comfortable grip, I'll lead us to where we need to go.
(Optional)
Lightly Built Lab Assistant: Yes, that big box there full of ore. And don't ask me about carts─I put in a request weeks ago.

Pick up the ore-filled crate

<Commence hauling?>

<Yes>
System: Your next quest objective requires Transporting. You will have 180 seconds to complete the objective.

Speak with the lightly built lab assistant and follow his lead

Lightly Built Lab Assistant: I see you're no stranger to hauling heavy things about! Come on─let's get moving before my arms fall off!

System: The lightly built lab assistant leads the way! 

Burly Researcher: That ought to do it. Come on back to the Archeion, and I'll pay you what you're owed.

Lightly Built Lab Assistant: Thanks, I can handle the rest from here─the worst of it is over!

Speak with the Burly Researcher

Burly Researcher: I'm glad you came along when you did. I can't be hauling ore all day, and my colleague is not exactly built for hard labor.
Burly Researcher: The Aesthete's Tholos is where we store our mineral deposits, you see, and it is our job to field and fill requests from our fellow researchers...
Burly Researcher: But we're not equipped to process orders of that quantity, especially if the Central Circuit keeps sending up requisition papers at the same frenzied pace.
Burly Researcher: We'll run out of stock before long─assuming our backs don't give out first. Anyway, you're not here to listen to me gripe. Take your wages, and good work!
