Story
Staelwyrn owns Summerford Farms, an orchard outside Limsa Lominsa. He has asked his old mate Baderon
for an extra pair of hands.Staelwyrn introduces himself as the 'old bastard'. Many workers are his old pirate crew; the Calamity wrecked their ship and badly hurt him. He took Admiral Merlwyb's
farming offer, but his men never took to the soil. His name means 'Still Snake'.Staelwyrn is at Summerford Farms and has not yet heard of the new kobold threat.
Staelwyrn praises Ostfyr's
caution, but says the Sahagin swarming at his gates need his attention first. Still, he respects the Yellowjackets too much to ignore their warning, and takes it to heart.Staelwyrn, owner of Summerford Farms, has a task for you, but first wants to see that you are properly equipped.
Staelwyrn warns the ex-pirates here are still rogues who respect strength. Once your gear passes, he has work for you. In small talk, he says he captained a pirate ship until the Calamity (a great disaster), then dragged his unwilling crew here.
Staelwyrn needs a capable adventurer: tattooed strangers are spying on his farmhands, who fear they are the rumored kidnappers.
Staelwyrn worries his ex-pirate farmhands may be tempted back to piracy. He agrees the
knife points to pirates. He vouches for Y'shtola
, who often studies aether (magic energy) near Summerford. He thanks you. His name means 'Still Snake' in old Roegadyn.Staelwyrn is angry because Sevrin
and other farmhands have vanished just when there is work to do at Summerford Farms.Staelwyrn asks you to round up his slacking farmhands instead of doing their work, so they learn. All return except Sevrin
, who has slipped away from him countless times. He does not blame you and vows to put Sevrin in the dirt.Staelwyrn fears a
sack of oranges meant for the La Thagran Checkpoint is lost: it vanished along with Sevrin
.Staelwyrn has long known Sevrin
makes shady deals with goblins behind his back. He gets his full payment through you and admits he had hoped for more from Sevrin. He could overlook skimming, but not selling everyone out to goblins. He warns you about Sevrin.Staelwyrn does not appear in this quest about medicine for the ex-pirates at Tiller's Rest.
A chart note says Tiller's Rest lies away from the orchards and from Staelwyrn, so his ex-pirate farmers like to go there to avoid work.
Staelwyrn tends his crops at Summerford Farms, where pirates have just stolen tools from Tiller's Rest.
Staelwyrn is glad Pfrewahl
did not fight, since he wants no blood on his crops. When you tell him Sevrin
met the pirates, he swears Sevrin's treachery must be punished.Staelwyrn is worried: Sevrin
has been skulking about since a letter came, and has now left with his men without a word.Staelwyrn cannot cut Sevrin
loose; the young man reminds him of his younger self. He praises Sevrin's choice to save his mates, keeps a place for him at the farm, and thanks you. He asks you to tell Baderon
, whom the Yellowjackets heed.
