Part 1
Talk to Marian

Marian: You're a new face. Are you the adventurer that Frenda sent?

You: Yes!

Marian: Well, nice to meet you! As it happens I do have some work for you, if you're up for it.

You: Sure! I'm happy to help.

Marian: Well, a colleague of mine has been researching the Evil Ruins.

Marian:  They're just south of Lemia, and it's always been a mystery where the zombies there came from.

Marian: I've been wondering why I haven't heard back from him.

Marian: One of his associates is in town.

Marian: His name is Norbert and he's probably in the cave.

Talk to Norbert(-1673, 50, 550) in Lemia Cave.

Marian: Could you go see him and see what's up? Ask him how Robinson is doing, and what's taking him so long.

Marian:Have you gone to see Norbert yet?

Part 2
Find Norbert and talk to him

Norbert: Hello. Need something?

You: Marian asked me to come here and ask about Robinson.

Norbert: Oh dear. Well you see, I actually hadn't told Marian yet, but...

Norbert: Well, Robinson has been missing for some time.

Norbert: He went to the Evil Ruins and we haven't heard from him since then.

You: Oh gosh, that's terrible! Is it dangerous there?

Norbert: I suppose so. There are many zombies there, but Robinson was a pretty strong fighter as well as a good researcher.

Search for Robinson at the Evil Runes (-1659, 40, 1088)

Norbert: You seem strong too. Do you think you could take a look and see why Robinson is missing?

Norbert: Robinson should be at the Evil Runes.

Part 3
Search for Robinson and talk to him

Robinson: Oh spirits above, I'm hallucinating again.

You: What? No! I'm real!

Robinson: That's what they all say...

You: No, really! Norbert sent me here.

Robinson:  ... Can it be?

You: Really! I promise, I'm real!

Robinson: I.. I can't believe it. Can it be?

Robinson: Wow, I can feel your flesh. You really are real!

You: Let's get you out of here.

Robinson: No! I can't leave. I'm doomed to die here.

You: What? Come on, stop talking nonsense.

Robinson: No, really. Those zombies out there? I discovered their secret. They were humans. Like me.

Robinson: But they're infectious. And I was bitten by one. Any day now, I'll become one of them.

You: I... I don't know what to say. I'm so sorry.

Robinson: It's OK. I'm a researcher. Death from the unknown is a great honor.

Robinson: I do have one wish, though.

Robinson: Before I was bitten, I conducted some experiments on a chunk of meat I sliced off of a zombie.

Robinson: There were some very interesting results, but I lost the meat when I panicked after getting bitten.

Robinson: It's hard to explain the importance to a non-scientist, but that meat is truly enlightening.

Robinson: If you could find that meat, you would be fulfilling my dying wish.

Robinson: One of those zombies out there probably has it.

Kill Zombies in the Evil Ruins (-1659, 40, 1088) until you find Robinson's meat sample.

Robinson: Can you kill zombies in the Evil Ruins until you find the meat sample?

Robinson: No luck yet? I'd really appreciate it if you kept trying. I'm sure one of those zombies has it.

Part 5
Talk to Robinson

>> Robinson took 1x Zombie Meat Sample.

Robinson: Yes, that's it!

Robinson: I can now rest in peace, knowing that I died for a purpose.

>> You received Zombie Meat Sample.

Robinson: Please bring the Meat Sample back to Marian. I'm sure she'll know what to do with it.

You: What about you?

Robinson: It's OK. Just leave me here to die in peace.

Bring the Meat Sample to Marian (-1574, 40, 492).

Robinson: Now go and bring the Meat Sample to Marian. Be safe.

Part 6
Bring the Meat Sample to Marian (-1574, 40, 492).

Marian: Hey, you're back!

Marian: Any news?

You:  I found out that Robinson was bitten by the zombies at the Evil Ruins. He says that he's infected and has to die there.

Marian:  Oh. Well.. that was.. blunt...

Marian: I'm really sorry to hear about that...

Marian:  Did he have any last words?

You: He wanted me to bring you this meat sample. He said you'd know what to do with it.

>> Marian took 1x Zombie Meat Sample.

Marian:  Oh? Very interesting...

Marian: This certainly isn't natural...

Marian: Hmm, signs of... no...

Marian:  It can't be...

Marian: Well, this certainly is a very interesting sample.

Marian: Thank you very much for bringing it. It's a shame that Robinson had to sacrifice himself for it.

Marian: This does seem to be a rather significant thing, though.

Marian: I don't have anything more for you to do right now.

Marian: I think I'll need to spend some time investigating this.

Marian: Why don't you explore town a bit and see if anyone else needs help? Remember, you can always check for quests to do in /quests.

Marian: I heard there's been some trouble with the Kino Warriors.

>> You received x50 Shards.
