Bluish jelly be damned, I was certain he'd forgotten that story. I hate it when people force my hand, but I don't have a choice. Without the spell, it'll be famine! What do you need?

Step 1: A Sweet Not Like the Others[]
- Paindep knows how to make nightmarish sweets! You just need to gather the ingredients. The end of the curse is near!
- Get the list of ingredients from Paindep
Keep talking to Paindep until the quest is updated.

Nightmarish sweets are quite unique, and few people even know that they exist. A dispute between the gods started it. Every year, Asid, the Meridia of Fear, stole all the sweets collected by his companions Farod, Vinstyl, Kia and Krunsh during Pumpkwin season. One day, in exasperation, they decided to get revenge. Their idea was simple: they wanted to prepare a sweet that could terrorise Asid himself. I dare say it was ambitious!
It took them almost a year to perfect a recipe made from ingredients symbolising the fear they represented. Once it was Pumpkwin season again, they made Sehb, the Meridia of Sweetness, taste their sweet to make sure it was powerful enough. He got the heebie-jeebies so badly that he now avoids all contact with sweets when it's Pumpkwin season. Anyway! That's how those sweets came to be called nightmarish sweets.
Naturally, Asid loved it! In fact, I even think that he's the only one able to enjoy them. The fear contained within this sweet would terrorise anyone who ate it!
Who do you take me for? It took an artist to create such a sweet, and the Meridia knew that I was the one they needed! I was the one who made the nightmarish sweet; all they did was bring me the ingredients.
Ah, because you think that they're typical ingredients? Listen closely: you have to wring out a terrified child's soiled undies and add a bone kept cold in a box after having crushed it. You then add fresh blood from a terrifying creature to the lot. Finally, you steep a queen's foot in the mixture and leave it standing until it crystallises.
For the undies, I can introduce you to some kids I've collected. For the bone, I advise you find a tomb in a crypt; they're better preserved there. While you're there, you might come across some vampires. The blood from one of those creatures should do the job, so take advantage of that. As for the queen's foot, I think that the queen who lives with the Treechnids won't notice if she's missing one.
|
- Note: the next 4 quest steps are accessible at the same time. You must gather all the required ingredients and talk to Paindep afterwards in order to update the quest.
- Take 1 Soiled Undies to Paindep
Talk to Paindep and ask to meet the children.

Talk to the little girl (Shees Kittish) and she will tell you she isn't scared.

If you're here to eat lollies, you're too late. I've already eaten them all.
When I eat sweets, nothing scares me.
I heard strange noises in my room this morning, so I got dressed in a hurry and forgot to put them on.
He pretends he's not afraid of anything, but in fact, out of the three of us, he's the most afraid. It's just that he hides it especially well. I'm sure he's already soiled his undies, but he'll never admit it.
|
Talk to the boy on the right (Imtoos Kittish) and he will tell you he didn't soil his undies.

|
*flinches and cries out* Don't eat meeeeee!!!
*trembles with fear* No... but then I've gotten quite used to being afraid of everyone and everything. My undies stay clean no matter what happens.
|
Finally talk to the last kid in the room at the top (Nevars Kittish) and he will let you take his soiled undies.
| Dialog |

|
I'm Nevars Kittish, the bravest of all, and I'm never afraid of anything!
Whaddaya mean? I am! I am brave and I'm not scared of anything. Paindep can come back whenever she wants, and I won't tremble!
What?! No way!
You would do that? I mean, I don't need you to, but if it's the only way to get rid of you, go ahead and take 'em!

I... really... love... kids.
I wasn't expecting you so soon! Let me prepare the sweet for you; I'll be back as soon as possible. In the meantime, you can admire the magnificent decor of my house, but be careful: if I catch you eating any kids, even just a little nibble, I'll devour you!
It's ready! I hope that whoever eats it is ready for the fright of the century! Don't forget to tell Bworknroll that I've helped you and that, as a result, my debt to him is paid!

Alone, I'm desperately alone among bullies and bully hunters.
I've lost quite a sum with this affair, but as long as my reputation remains intact, I'll be satisfied. Well now, I've done my research on that infamous Diabworktik, and no one's heard of him. It's very strange. I wonder if by any chance...
Let's see, we have a Bwork working very powerful magic, who shows up in Pumpkwin season. This Bwork is a huge fan of sweets, and especially loves a sweet that, according to Paindep, only Asid could like... Do you see where I'm going with this yet? Bring him his nightmarish sweet to get rid of his curse as fast as possible!

- Talk to Diabworktik

|
Back again, finally! Did you find nightmarish sweets?
Give me that or I'll have you eating Evil Dandelions by the roots!
*stuffs his face* Who am I really? Funny you should ask. Usually, adventurers don't notice a thing because they're too scared. So, who do you think I am?
|
- Choose a disguise
Only if you have chosen the "Asid" dialogue option before. It will allow you to receive one of 4 transformation potions for free.

Impressive! No one has ever guessed my true identity before. You do deserve that I lift the curse. But mum's the word, this stays between the two of us! I love playing this trick during Pumpkwin season. I've got tons of disguises on hand to scare passers-by. Since you managed to find me a nightmarish sweet and guessed my real identity to boot, I'll give you one. Which one would you prefer?
Very good choice! All you need to do is down it in one gulp to terrorise anyone who crosses your path! I'll be here until the end of Pumpkwin season, so if you ever want a new disguise, come back and see me.
