Find a Royal Nose for the Snowman (Quest)

### Objective

*Find a Royal Nose for the Snowman: The snowman wants to trade his crown for a royal nose. Can I find something royal in one of the camps? Maybe Black Tower? That sounds kind of royal.*

### Obtaining

In order to begin the quest, follow the trail snowy trail heading southwest from Robin, along the cliff's edge. There the player will find a decaying stone building with a snowman wearing a crown. Interacting with the snowman will cause Flint to exclaim "Hey, that's the crown of this lord-knight guy!" to which the snowman will respond, much to Flint's surprise, "Excuse me? This is MY crown!". The snowman will then explain that the only way he'll allow the player to take the crown is if they find him "a nose that's just as majestic and royal as this crown". The quest will activate after the player finishes the conversation. Continuing to interact with the snowman will result in him giving the player a few hints as to where they might find a royal nose - "The Gem of Blue Table!" and "The Gem of Back Towel". What the snowman means is "The Gem of Black Tower".

### Completing

To complete the quest, the player will need to make their way back to Black Tower campsite, where The Black Tower is located. At the top of the Black Tower is an orange book. Interacting with the book will reveal that it is the story of "The Gem of Black Tower", a Choose Your Own Adventure style book. The book will present the player with multiples choices while reading, most of which will lead to the players "death" and requiring them to start reading from the beginning again. Each time the player starts reading from the beginning will cost them 1 coin. A guide for the book can be found below.

After successfully finishing the book, the quest item "The Gem of the Black Tower" will be added to the player's inventory. Head back up the cable car, across the rope bridge, and back to the snowman near Robin's Post. Interact with the snowman and he will trade you the crown for the gem. The "The Gem of the Black Tower" quest item will be removed from the player's inventory, and the "Crown" will be added.
