Strange Springs

==Obtaining==
Talk to Poochan at [26,-29].
==Step 1: Who's afraid of the Big Bad Bow Meow?==
; Poochan is looking for her future husband but the only clues she has are that he lives in Pandala and is scared of Bow Meows. The easiest thing to do would be to turn yourself into a Bow Meow and jump on everyone, wouldn't it?
: You will receive 1 Bow Meow Curse (you will lose it if you start a fight).
: You will receive 1 Poochan (following character).
: You will be teleported to [26,-30].
: Lanma fled south-east, you must follow him.
: You will lose 1 Bow Meow Curse.
: You will lose 1 Poochan (following character).
: You will be teleported to [25,-34].
==Step 2: Informal Agreement==
; Here, the tradition tells that the father decides who his son or his daughter will marry. You just have to persuade the father to let his son go. You will have to do your best to convince him.
: Note: always choose "Leave" dialogue option instead of "Give X Kamas" in order to proceed with the dialogues and the quest. If you choose the options to give kamas you don't actually lose the kamas but the quest won't update.
==Step 3: Dento Family Conquest==
; In order to free Lanma from his duties, you will have to break off his engagement to a young lady in the Dento family.
: Talk to Goriya, you will start a fight against 1 Goriya and 1 Timouss.
==Step 4: Reward?==
; Poochan awaits you.
==Rewards==
* Level-Based XP
* 1,105 Kamas
* 10 Araknawa Leg
Talking to Poochan now gives you the option to turn into a Bow Meow (Bow Meow Curse), a Bwak (Bwak Transformation), or a Young Wild Boar (Young Wild Boar Transformation) for 2,000 Kamas. Transformation only lasts until your next battle. You are then able to return to [26,-29] and transform again if you so desire.
==Trivia==
The characters in this quest are named after characters in Ranma 1/2. Poochan is Shampoo (a girl who is cursed to turn into a cat and speaks broken Chinese), Lanma Metoassa is Ranma Saotome (who is also terrified of cats), Gempa is Genma (Ranma's father, who is cursed to turn into a panda), Akane Dento is Akane Tendo (who Ranma is betrothed to, even though neither really wants to be), Goriya is Ryouga (Ranma's rival, whose curse turns him into a pig), and Timouss is Mousse (Shampoo's childhood friend who is madly in love with her, who is cursed to turn into a duck).
The title of the quest, "Strange Springs" and the Juice-Sane-Ki-Oak spring that Poochan uses to turn herself and you into a Bow Meow, both refer to the Jusenkyo springs in Ranma 1/2 that curse people with the form of whoever or whatever had drowned in that spring.
A Goriya is also a boomerang-throwing enemy in many of the Legend of Zelda games, but that similarity is probably a coincidence.
