We are in need of dire need of help from the bravest of the brave. Our fairies were captured and their wings were stolen right off their back. The monstrous thief hid them away in hopes of turning them to riches upon their return.

After locating a wing, bring it by The Hammered Goose’s tent to reunite the fairy with their missing wing to receive your reward. After you stop by to update the hunt, will have your choice between a discount of our wares or your choice of a treasure from our chest. You also keep the wing as a token of our gratitude.
