Dialogue

After turning in first materials:

The Artisan

Back already? I admit, I was hoping such a daunting task might drive you away... I seem to attract the most stubborn sort of people... No matter, where were we?

Ah yes, not bad, Adventurer, this leather is quite sturdy. I can see you've earned your reputation. Don't get your head in the clouds though, you've still got a long way to go.

Regardless, this should cover The Steward's orders for the next few months. What, you didn't think I'd get nothing out of this for myself, did you?

For your next task, I want you to pour your heart into a finished product, three finished products to be precise. Bring me [Drakeskin Mask +1], a [Drakehide Coat +1], and [Drakeskin Pants +1].

We'll talk again when you have those items.

The trousers are pliant yet the helmet could stop an arrow, all from the same material. The range shown here is impressive. But you can take that even further. Leather is a material unique in its ability to adapt to so many different roles. The key is understanding the application of different tanning agents. The right tool doesn't hurt either.

You've earned this round knife, it's served me for many years. Now let's see what your leatherworkers can do with it.
