Quest Details: Difficulty:

The Craftsman has asked us to send over a sailor skilled at naval battles. That's why we want you to go. He's supposedly got some ideas for a new type of extra armouring, and we're interested. Please, we need your help on this one!

Step 1: Armouring of hardened wood:
[Marseilles: Craftsman]

So you're the sailor with the guild introduction? I heard you've done some battle at sea. I have something to ask you. Can you seek other professional advice on further strengthening of the additional ship armorouring?

Step 2: Carpenter's opinion:
[Marseilles: Carpenter]

Is the additional armouring not strong as it is? If such a thing exists I'd like to see it. Wood is general strengthened by scorching one side and reinforcing the other. Do you have any plans in mind, sir?

Step 3: Wax:
[Marseilles: Shipyard Master]

In ship construction, planks are coated with molten beeswax to make them water resistant. As a change of tack, why don't you try asking a scholar? An intellectual may come up with an inventive idea.

Step 4: Coat with glue:
[Marseilles: Scholar]

To strengthen and preserve wood, it needs to be protected all the way through. One local method is to paint it with tree resin. Another way is to paint it with glue, scorch that onto the surface and apply a water-proofing coat of beeswax.

Report to Craftsman:
Techniques have been learnt on how to strengthen ship armouring, such as the use of glue and other methods. If these are done well, stronger ship armouring can be made. Inform the craftsman about it.
Conclusion: Technique for hardening:
[Marseilles: Craftsman]

Interesting... in a word, various things happen when you strengthen things up. Anyway, I will try making a prototype on that line. I will give the prototype to the Guild when complete, so please give it a try. I might ask you how comfortable it is to use during sea battle!
