• You learn that the crow feathers will be used to make arms and armor. While Cicely takes satisfaction from the thought that the feathers will be used in the nation's defense, it gives her pause that war may be coming to the Twelveswood once more.

Weapons of a Feather script
Fufucha	Ah, [Player Name]. You couldn't have come at a more opportune time. I have a favor to ask of you.
Fufucha	We have just received an urgent request from the Order of the Twin Adder. They ask that we supply them with ninety-nine crow feathers as soon as possible.
Fufucha	Crows often leave behind feathers where they perch, which can be used to make arms and armor.
Fufucha	The situation must be grim indeed if the Order has need of such a large amount.
Fufucha	It would not do to keep the defenders of our nation waiting. I would be most glad if you could help us fulfill this order.
Fufucha	Crow feathers can be found in abundance in the area south of Gilbert's Spire.
Fufucha	Once you have procured ninety-nine, promptly deliver them to Cicely. I've given her charge over our stores. My thanks in advance.
Cicely	You're helping us out again? My thanks, friend. In case you've forgotten, the crow feathers can be found in the area south of Gilbert's Spire.
Cicely	Ah, the crow feathers! You have my thanks.
Cicely	Doubtless you already know this from Fufucha, but it's the Order of the Twin Adder that requested the feathers.
Cicely	If I heard it true, they're in the midst of preparing for war against the Ixal. The crow feathers are needed to make arms and armor─feathered harpoons, plumed yew crooks, and the like.
Cicely	It's a fine feeling, being able to do our part to aid those men and women who defend our nation.
Cicely	But to need the feathers in such large quantities... It gives me pause to imagine the bloodshed that lies ahead. Will the Twelveswood ever know true peace?
Cicely	Oh, but there I go again with my wistful ramblings. Feel free to ignore me.
Cicely	Now, before I forget, Fufucha asked me to give you something on her behalf: a scythe.
Cicely	The scythe is what we call a secondary tool. Used in your off hand, it allows you to harvest from lush vegetation in addition to the mature trees you already know so well.
Cicely	That Fufucha has seen fit to make you this gift is proof positive of your progress. You're no longer a novice, my friend. I daresay you're ready to try your hand at fieldcraft leves, perhaps even take on Grand Company work.
Cicely	But first, I recommend you head into the wood and find some lush vegetation to try that new scythe on. Off you go now, and come back when you're ready to take on another task for the guild!
