Job Quest: Potatoes and Crystals

Discussion for the quest here.

Just something to put in the narrative, to prove that the Heroes didn't want the money and were working for the entire world. Not just for one place.

But don't worry about it.

I believe the decision itself is already a proof enough of that, so we should be good. There's nothing wrong with taking our response further, but in this case, it seems clearer to simply state that they're not interested in the money, regardless of the amount! Otherwise, it's as though we're purposely pushing the potatoes into making higher bids... unless I'm getting the whole concept wrong, in which case feel free to correct me on that.

No. It was basically matching stubbornness with stubbornness, since the task gave a range of monetary amounts the Tarutarus were willing to offer. It wasn't meant as a goading measure, but as proof that the money would be better spent elsewhere.

And as a means to jump to suggest moving to Esdham.

Kind of like when with your friends.

How about I give you $1 to do [this].
No.
Two dollars?
No.
How about three?
No.
Sheesh. Fine. Have it your way.

That sort of scenario. But like I said, don't worry about it. I was just trying to put a little "struggle" into it, that's all.

It'd probably be a good idea (Rialynn would suggest) to appeal to their pride with flattery. It's hard to tell without getting a good gauge of their reactions and personality, but if they seem to respond well to having their egos stroked about how much better they could make Esdham become, either having new attractions that bring hope and fun to the people, or restoring an old gem that had lost its luster, that might be a good angle to pursue.

I wouldn't be surprised that they have egos to be stroked...LOL

So, we'll go with that?

Went for their egos while suggesting they move to Esdham? Especially if they suggest just how much more money they'll make by people going there to see the "new" Esdham.
