# They need a report on the state of the spears. **Quest Group**: 113074 **Steps**: 25 ## Summary Spears, you say... Is there anyone here with issues regarding their spears? None here! The shaft is a bit worn. I could use a replacement! None here, too! None here! So they say. Please let Choi Woncheol hear this report. ## Walkthrough ### Step 1 - **Dialogue**: ### Step 2 - **Reward**: Chung! Seong! Pardon me, Your Excellency... But did you step on the King's Road? You mustn't do that! ### Step 3 - **Reward**: You're coming from the armory? ### Step 4 - **Objective**: They need a report on the state of the spears. - **Summary**: Spears, you say... Is there anyone here with issues regarding their spears? None here! The shaft is a bit worn. I could use a replacement! None here, too! None here! So they say. Please let Choi Woncheol hear this report. ### Step 5 - **Reward**: Please inform him that one spear shaft needs to be replaced. ### Step 6 - **Reward**: This is Gwanghwamun, the main gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace. All gates of the palace are guarded by our gatekeepers. ### Step 7 - **Objective**: Why does no one pass through the central gate? - **Summary**: The central gate is reserved solely for His Majesty. As long as our gatekeepers stand guard, it will be strictly protected. Ah, come to think of it, I have a favor to ask of you. Would you mind going on patrol in my stead? ### Step 8 - **Reward**: The Heungnyemun Gatekeeper is known to not take their role seriously, forgetting the password quite frequently... I want to instill a sense of urgency in her. ### Step 9 - **Objective**: What do you need me to do? - **Summary**: Pass through Heungnyemun Gate naturally. There is a standard procedure where they ask for your affiliation and purpose. If she fails to follow the proper protocol, do let me know about it. ### Step 10 - **Reward**: She should always be on high alert... I hope she is doing her duty well... ### Step 11 - **Objective**: Haetae statue? - **Summary**: Yes, it's the statue right in front of us. Touching its foreleg won't guarantee success in the state exams, will it? However, quite a few people believe it, causing crowds that are hard to control. If Your Excellency doesn't mind, care to find out the origins of this rumor please? ### Step 12 - **Reward**: Hmm... There's an unfounded rumor going about claiming touching the Haetae statue's foreleg at Gwanghwamun ensures success in the state exams. ### Step 13 - **Reward**: Have you found the source? ### Step 14 - **Objective**: (Explain Song Jiae's situation.) - **Summary**: I've often been asked about such things by passersby, but did it happen again today? Before the guard change, I saw him wearing a short sword on his official belt. When I mentioned the sword, I immediately regretted asking... He wouldn't stop boasting about it... Has he lost it already? Haha. Well, I haven't seen it since then. ### Step 15 - **Reward**: Today, Nam Baeksan, gatekeeper at Geunjeongjeon, was also with us. You should go and ask him. ### Step 16 - **Objective**: I found it out. - **Summary**: So that's what happened. How did it escalate this much... The Haetae statue marks the boundaries of the palace and serves as a guardian against fires in Seoul. In conclusion, it has nothing to do with passing exams. ### Step 17 - **Objective**: (Explain Hong Jongjin's situation.) - **Summary**: Did that really happen? It's the first time I've heard of the commander losing an official document. He's usually very meticulous and doesn't tolerate even minor mistakes. ### Step 18 - **Reward**: Still, I switched shifts today. Please inform them that I took over guard duty on this day! ### Step 19 - **Reward**: Chung! Seong! All clear on duty! What brings you to Gwanghwamun Gate, Your Excellency? ### Step 20 - **Objective**: Do you know today's password? - **Summary**: It's "Dragons and Tigers." You must be here for a surprise inspection of the gatekeepers. ### Step 21 - **Reward**: The Heungnyemun Gatekeeper should also know the password, probably. ### Step 22 - **Reward**: Chung! Seong! All clear on duty! Gwanghwamun Gatekeeper, Kang Danhyeok, reporting! ### Step 23 - **Objective**: I've come to distribute supplies. Here you go. - **Summary**: I could have gone to get them myself, but thank you for coming all the way here! ### Step 24 - **Reward**: With deep respect for Your Excellency, I will protect Gwanghwamun Gate with even more diligence! ### Step 25 - **Reward**: Seek those who might know of the rumors. I humbly ask this of you.
