Shell Hunt for Amateurs

==Obtaining==
Talk to Thomas Cork at [-49,44] in Vulkania Village.
==Step 1: Shells and Crustaceans for Amateurs==
; You have 15 minutes to gather as many shells as you can from the beaches of Vulkania. When this time has elapsed, you can take them to Thomas Cork in the hopes of earning a little reward
==Preparation==
First, it is recommended that you scout the areas of the perimeter of the island so you can get a better understanding of where the shells are located. You have only 15 minutes to gather the shells, after which time you will no longer be able to pick them up. It is recommended that you use a mount in order to move the fastest so that you can get the most shells and score the most points. When you are ready, speak to Thomas Cork at [-49,44] to start the quest.
==Shells==
There are three main locations where you can obtain shells. Starting from Thomas Cork's position, head to the southern and western beaches. Once you have finished with the south and west beaches, head straight up to the north beach, where you will find many more shells.
You can collect 4 different types of shells and a useless Used Sole. The shells you can collect are:
Accio Shell - 5 points each
Restla Shell - 3 points each
Sandka Shell - 2 points each
Charlisagen Shells - 1 point each
==Completion==
When you can no longer collect shells, head back to Thomas Cork and exchange the shells for the indicated values above.
Points are given as 1 point per Thomas Cork Card.
NOTE: In order to get the highest score, you should choose the option to "Give the different types of shells", rather than only a single type of shell at a time.
If you exchange the different types of shells with 5 of each shell, you will get 75 Thomas Cork Cards.
If you exchange the different types of shells with 1 of each shell, you will get 15 Thomas Cork Cards.
If you exchange individual types of shells at a time, you will gain only multiples of the point values listed above.
