Entry Entry Text
Quest Start You overheard a fight between Hagie and Ruli, husband and wife. Their daughter Hunnie is sick and won't get better if she doesn't eat. But the thing is, the only food she has an appetite for is cake, and finding a particular cake to please her has proven nearly impossible. Ruli is at her wit's end, ready to even trade her soul to a monster if it means finding a cake her daughter will eat.

Where are you going to find a suitable cake?
1st Update You gave Ruli a monster cake!

Her sick daughter, Hunnie, who has not had an appetite for anything but cake lately, was able to eat it.

Check in with Ruli to find out how Hunnie is doing.
Quest Clear You were generously awarded for giving Ruli a monster cake.
Her daughter Hunnie seems to have made a full recovery, well enough even to play outside again.
