This quest was really fun! There is a lot of great dialogue and funny convesations with the NPC's.. It had a great cute story involving the mystery dissapearances of pumpkins for making Halfling Pumpkin Pies. The ending has a great twist too! It begins in North-East Antonica at Windstalker Village by speaking to a cute little halfling named "Ponchy Shorttoe." (This quest was also featured in last years's Halloween 2005 events and kept thru-out the year. This year they changed the rewards by adding new ones.)
Ponchy Shorttoe: "Aww shucks, you haven't heard? Oh boy, oh boy, I just don't know what to do. You see there haven't been any pumpkins coming from the McQuibble Farm for some time now. Not since that unexplained, mysterious fire. No one can figure out why pumpkins just won't grow anymore in the fields. It's very, very distressing. I haven't even seen a crumb of pumpkin pie in forever!"
Littlelisa: "That's horrible. Hasn't anyone looked into this unexplained and baffling mystery?"
Ponchy Shorttoe: "No one even wants to go over to the farm since the fire. I'm never going to have pumpkin pie again!"
Littlelisa: "Don't cry Ponchy. I'll go check out the farm."
Ponchy Shorttoe: "You will! That's wonderful. The farm is just sounth of here in the Northern Farmlands. I really hope you can figure out what is happening. I'm not sure I'll ever be happy again if I can't have pumpkin pies."
Littlelisa: "I'll figure it out Ponchy. Don't worry."
