Tasty Tongue Varnish
After speaking to Brengolin, Maurice will come up and make a suggestion about where to find some Root Liqueur:
:Maurice Ouren: "Hey, Bren, maybe send your friend to the Guild Traders. They traffic in all sorts."
:Brengolin: "Not a bad idea! They wouldn't give us the time of day, but I bet they'd be eager to help a cutting figure such as yourself!"
:Maurice Ouren: "Think I'm going to take a stroll. Little smoky in here. No offense."
:Brengolin: "I'll be here, airing the place out, if you have any luck with those Guild Traders."''

Make your way to the guild traders and you'll be beckoned:
:Maurice Ouren: "Hey, you. Working with Brengolin. Come this way."

When spoken to:
:"I overheard you talking to Bren about the Root Liqueur and I had to intervene before you took off on some wild guar chase."
:'''You don't think I'll be able to find more?
:"Oh, I know you won't. That rare stock was a batch of counterfeit hooch I was trying to pass off on a wealthy mark, but she caught wise. When Bren got into it, I didn't have the heart to tell him it wasn't the real thing. I only made one batch."
:Could you make more?
:"Suppose I could, but I based it off stuff that isn't easily come by. Part of the mix is Wellspring Hooch, and I have on good authority that some students of the Catalog of Rote Duplication keep a stash. Off limits, but that's not the hard part."
:What is then?
:"The other main ingredient can't be found in Clockwork City. Stuff was stolen from the private reserve of some silk-shirt in Port Hunding. Even if you could get out of this ticking prison, you'd have to smuggle a crate of the stuff back here."
:I think I can handle that.
:Maurice Ouren: "I'll believe you when I see it. If you do pull it off, meet me in Slag Town."

When you return:
:"You find the little thing we talked about?"
:Yeah, I've got it.
:Maurice Ouren: "You really are something. How'd you wind up in a dump like this?"
:Maurice Ouren: "Gimme a minute to cut this. Little boiler coolant gives it some bite."
:Maurice Ouren: "And, there: "Genuine" Elden Root Liqueur."
:"Promise you'll keep this between us? I like Bren too much to break his heart. He tries so hard to keep us in good spirits."
:If it makes him happy, I don't see the harm in it.
:Maurice Ouren: "I'll get out of here before you give it to him."

After the completing A Matter of Tenderness:
:Kaera Tussaud: "Alright, here goes …."
:Maurice Ouren: "Might need a little nip of that liqueur after this … Mmm. Mmm! Delicious!"
:Kaera Tussaud: "Hey! Bren! This is good! You did it!"
:Tubabi: "Oh—my! There is a hint of home in this. Thank you!"''

Speak to him and he'll say:
:''"Real food! Or near as I can tell, I don't care! Didn't think I'd ever come back for seconds down here. Bren ever needs more of your help, count me in!"''
