Before
I hear that Winston the archeologist is searching for something in the Rocky Mountains on the east side of Perion...
In progress
Winston, an archaeologist I ran into in the Rocky Mountains east of Perion, has lost the fossils he's meticulously been collecting in the region. He asked me to bring back 12 Animal Fossils and 12 Plant Fossils, which have been stolen by Green Mushrooms and Axe Stumps. How could he lose such important things? He's more careless than he looks...
Completed
I found the fossils that Winston lost.
