Quest description:
“Yann and Naira are stumbling around, completely soaked in alcohol. Hear what kind of trouble has been caused.”

Yann was supposed to take another bounty while you were hunting down Ulzok. It seems that instead, he had more than one drink. Find him near the main building at Howling Hill.

After the conversation, you will receive a logging axe. Naira and Yann have drunk too much at the Inn, and Marius wants them to work for it by chopping wood. Since they’re family, you have to help out. Call your horse and follow Yann on horseback.

As always, once you arrive, he will leave you hanging and ride back to camp.

Choose your axe in the tools menu and start logging. You only need 6 timbers.

Return to camp and talk to Marius. He will ask you if you have seen Yann. This will complete the quest and the “The Price of a Hangover” questline, and “Quarrel on Horseback” starts.

It all began in the ’80s when I was just 7 years old. Starting with basic arcade games, I soon delved into titles like Loom and Monkey Island by Lucasarts. Throughout the years, as I indulged in more and more games, I consistently sought clear guides to swiftly navigate my gameplay. Now, it’s my turn to contribute back to the community.
