Mission:Crossing Over - Part Two: Recover the Red Caps' iron hoard

Recover the Red Caps' iron hoard

Briefing

I think I've uncovered a way to strike at the Red Caps. It seems they've been hoarding all the iron in the area; fey creatures, as I'm sure you know, are afraid of iron. It can harm them quite greviously. If you would go into the caves and recover their iron hoard, I think we could really hit them where it hurts.

Mission Acceptance

When you've finished, take the recovered iron over to Mayor Bower. I'm sure he'll be happy to get his citizens' pots and pans back to them.

Debriefing

Thank you. I'll get this iron back to its owners. Except for this piece. This blade. It belonged to my grandfather, you see. I've kept it as something of a memento, but now I want you to have it, at least for a while. I can't think of a better use for it than in defense of my grandfather's home.

Temporary Power

Upon successful completion of this mission, a hero will earn the Iron Blade temporary power.

Iron Blade Melee, Moderate Damage (Lethal), Foe -Defense According to Buck Salinger, it's a well known fact that Fey creatures such as the Fir Bolg, Red Caps and Tuatha fear iron more than any other substance. This Iron Blade you recovered may be of some use against them. You may carry it for 3 days before returning it to the village.

Debriefing

Exploiting the weaknesses of the Red Caps will be key to defeating them. Use that blade well.
