Toe-tal Misunderstanding

**Toe-tal Misunderstanding** is a quest given by Kim and Marty in the epilogue. It requires the player to brew truth serum-laced Malasadas to give to Aryel to get him to admit to being the one that harassed Kim and Marty after they moved to Fairhaven. The reward for completion is 210 coins.

The recipe for Malasadas can only be found through fishing up bottles, and which recipe a bottle contains is a matter of luck.

The recipe for Truth Serum Malasadas requires 1x Malasada, 1x Wool Weed, 1x Wolfsbane, and 1x Dragon's Blood Vial. Wool Weed and Wolfsbane can be found past the second pillar in the Gloaming, and Dragon's Blood Vials can be obtained by tapping dragon's blood trees in the third section of the Gloaming.

## Dialogue

Quest intro:

* Tara: Hey. Selling Kim some product, Marty?
* Kim: Actually we’re making a plan. We think it wasn’t Thomas who sent me mean notes and vandalized Marty’s barn.
* Marty: See, I found some footprints by the cow’s paddocks. But they were footprints, not shoeprints, understand? I mean, I’ve never seen Thomas outside his house without his boots on, have you?
* Tara: No, I guess I haven’t.
* Marty: I tried following the tracks, but it’s weird. It’s like they start at the paddock instead of ending there!
* Kim: Anyway, we’re thinking of setting up cameras to catch the culprit.
* Tara: Don’t bother. I think I might have a lead.
* Kim: Really? Cool. Let us know what you find out.

Baffling footprints, huh? You know someone who tends to leave those…

* Tara: Aryel, give it to me straight. Were you the one harassing Marty and Kim when they first moved to town?
* Aryel: I’m sure I have no idea what you’re talking about. Excuse me, I need to go check on some baby birds that I rescued after they fell from their nest yesterday.
* Zephyr: Aryel hates confessin’ to his mischief. Pretty sure the few times Peri’s gotten him to admit to something, she’s used truth serum. I probably shouldn’t give this to ya, but here. [Gives Truth Serum Malasada recipe] It really grinds my gears that Thomas has taken the blame for all this, and if Aryel *did* do it, I want to know, too! Pour it on a malasada. He won’t be able to resist.

Brew a truth serum-imbued malasada to find out the truth from Aryel.

Take the special malasada to Aryel.

* Tara: Here Aryel, I have something for you. They’re your favorite, right?
* Aryel: That they are! And how delightful and utterly unsuspicious that a witch is just giving me my favorite treat. I’m sure they’re not tainted by a potion at all!
* Tara: Erm…
* Aryel: Haha! Witch, I can smell a truth serum a mile away. I’ve gotten quite immune to it, actually. But I admire your moxie. You must really want to know who freed Marty’s cows and splashed red paint on Kim’s shop. Well… it was me! And I’m not even a tiny bit sorry, either! Haha!
* [Zephyr teleports in]
* Zephyr: I knew it! I knew ya were lettin’ Thomas take the rap!
* [Zephyr teleports herself, Tara and Aryel to Marty’s ranch, where Marty and Kim are standing by a cow]
* Marty: *Screams*.
* Kim: What the what?
* Thomas: What’s all the commotion over here?
* Tara: Um, sorry to pop in like this. But it was Aryel, here, who was bothering you, not Thomas.
* Aryel: That’s right! I cannot bear to see helpless creatures trapped in servitude to humans!
* Thomas: Marty may be inept at caring for livestock, but this is all a bit extreme.
* Aryel: I drove out the last rancher, and he was far more intrepid than you, Mar-tin. You’ll be gone soon enough.
* Zephyr: I’m sorry. We’ll see if we can spell him to make him stay in Ravenwood. Peri’s gonna be none too pleased, I will tell you that.
* [Zephyr teleports herself and Aryel away]
* Kim: Well that was interesting.
* Marty: *Whimpering noises*.
* Thomas: I gotta get back to my garden.
* Kim: Thomas, I’m sorry I…
* Thomas: Nevermind. Let’s just, call it a truce from now on. Fair?
* Kim: Fair. Thanks for your help with this one, Tara. I’m still getting used to the whole, you’re a witch thing. The existence of magical creatures is a bit of a stretch, not gonna lie. But I guess I can’t complain nothing ever happens on this island anymore, huh?
