Walkthrough

After speaking to 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go,Set three smoldering coals on the 596th Order supplies northeast of Camp Overlook. Release the smart bombs from a safe location. Retrieve a bomb core from the embers. Deliver the core to 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go.

In-game Description

789th Order Dustman Bo Zu is appalled-- outraged, shocked, appalled-- by a shameless display of industriousness and ambition.

With a disapproving scowl, Bo Zu relates the recent exploits of the 596th Order, a once-hapless band of kobolds who are recently climbing the ranks with a most contemptible work ethic. Seek the assistance of 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go, that you might deprive the self-righteous lot of the fruits of their labor and teach them the important lesson that hard work never pays.

The eccentric Ba Go, always eager to be a part of any plot that involves large-scale death and destruction, furnishes you with a few of his hot-tempered beauties and some coal to direct them to their targets. In return for his aid, he also demands that you recover at least one of the bomb cores from the resulting rubble after the act of sabotage is done. Head to the 596th's new dig northeast of Camp Overlook and place the coal per the acolyte's instructions.

You have successfully placed the coal on three small piles of supplies. Leave a wide enough berth, then release Ba Go's beauties to finish the job.

Ba Go's beauties have performed their task admirably, resulting in a firestorm of destruction of which the mad acolyte would be proud. Search the rubble for one of the bomb cores left over from the explosions.

You have successfully recovered the bomb core. Return to the 798th Order Dig and deliver it to to Ba Go.

Ba Go is pleased, both with the success of his lovingly crafted creations and your ability to recover the core he sought. Eager to return to his work, the acolyte dismisses you abruptly, asking you to report to Bo Zu.

Sloth and sluggardy have won the day, and there is much rejoicing from Bo Zu. the 789th must remain wary, however, as one never knows when another rogue kobold order might fall prey to the siren call of gainful effort and exertion. Should such a dark day descend, the dustman would call upon your aid anew...

Dialogue

Accepting the Quest

789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: Those scoundrels—rogues, knaves, scoundrels! This is unforgivable! No, no, it will not be forgiven!
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: For so long—yes, so many moons—did they rival us at the bottom of the ranks—the hind, the rear, the bottom. Now they have risen all the way to 596th!
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: And do you know how they have done this? Through—<gasp>—effort! Effort, and honest work! The utter gall—nerve, insolence, gall!
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: >> Even now, they dig, dig day and night at a vein that affords ore by the tonze—more ore than 789th sees in a year! This shameless ambition must be stopped! Ba Go will know what to do. Yes, yes, you must seek Ba Go. Ba Go always knows. <<

Speaking with 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go

789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Bo Zu would make big booms at the 596th Order Dig, send them plummeting down the ranks—diving, plunging, plummeting? Ba Go likes this plan. Yes, yes, likes it much.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: And you will help? Ba Go likes you too. Yes, Ba Go likes you so much he will lend you some of his beauties. And you will treat them gently—sweetly, kindly, gently.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Ba Go will also give you smolder stones. Find something you want to go boom, place smolder stones close. Then step back. Yes, yes, stand clear. Release Ba Go's beauties, and savor the smell of chaos—relish, enjoy, savor.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: But Ba Go does not help you without a condition. No, no, after beauties go boom, you must enter the flames and come out with one of their cores.
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Ba Go needs all the cores he can get to build more beauties, make more things go boom. Yes, yes, make many, many booms! Heahehe! Heaahheahahaha!

Set smoldering coals on the 596th Order supplies

596th Order Scout: >> Leave those alone! Yes, yes, do not touch! 
Zo Ga will crush us, smash us, squash us! <<
596th Order Scout: >> You! Yes, you!
What are you doing there!? <<
596th Order Scout: >> We toiled long and hard for those! 
Labored, troubled, toiled! <<

Delivering the core to 789th Order Acolyte Ba Go

789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Ba Go's beauties make beautiful, beautiful booms, yes? And you have present for Ba Go? Yes, yes, you do.
<Hand Over Smart Bomb Core>
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: Such a lovely, lovely core. Yes, Ba Go's next batch of beauties will be beautiful indeed, won't they? Yesss, yesss, they will!
789th Order Acolyte Ba Go: You're still here? Go, go, go back to Bo Zu, and leave me to our lovelies—my beauties, my darlings, my lovelies.

Reporting to 789th Order Dustman Bo Zu

789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: The adventurer has done well, well has she/he done. Blasts and bursts were heard all the way from here. Yes, yes, they were heard!
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: The 596th will learn that hard work is futile—pointless, fruitless, futile. Well will they learn the lesson—yes, the lesson we learned long ago.
789th Order Dustman Bo Zu: Should they ever forget this lesson, you must return to play teacher—mentor, instructor, teacher. This you can do, yes? Yes, yes, Bo Zu can trust you.
