## Walkthrough


### Step 1

- **Dialogue**: *Sobs* My love... 
Please, get up and start walking again!


### Step 2

- **Reward**: *Sobs*... Oh, oh my, are you a customer? 
My husband hurt his legs badly, and we have no herbs to sell.


### Step 3

- **Objective**: How did he end up injuring his legs?

- **Summary**: Well, you see... that day, just like always,
he was out searching for ginseng.


### Step 4

- **Reward**: Then, by sheer luck, he stumbled upon a ginseng that seemed magical, 
like it had been growing for a thousand years.


### Step 5

- **Objective**: Aged for a thousand years, you say.

- **Summary**: I know, it's hard to believe. 
But that's what he told me. 
Unfortunately, on his way back with the ginseng, 
he slipped.


### Step 6

- **Reward**: As he slipped down the mountain, he lost the ginseng he found 
and hurt his leg on something sharp.


### Step 7

- **Objective**: What could have possibly hurt him?

- **Summary**: I really don't know.
He said he couldn't even cry out before he passed out. 
When he came to... *sobs*... his leg wouldn't move, and he somehow 
managed to crawl back home over that rough hillside.
His clothes were torn, and he was covered in scratches... *sobs* 
I'm thankful he's alive, But... with no money to help, 
I'm forced to watch my husband's legs rot away, 
and it's breaking my heart.
My dear, don't cry. I think this is my fate catching up with me. 
If my legs get better, I promise won't live like that again...
My love *sobs*, I'm terrified 
that I might lose you for good...
*Coughs*... Love, no need to worry. With your tender care, 
don't you think I'm looking a bit better than yesterday?


### Step 8

- **Reward**: No, my love... *sniffles*, 
if only I could get my hands on that eternal ginseng...


### Step 9

- **Objective**: Eternal ginseng? What's that?

- **Summary**: The thing is, I asked the famous healer nearby, 
and they said, to heal the illness...


### Step 10

- **Reward**: Even seasoned gatherers hardly ever spot ginseng. 
How's a woman like me supposed to find the legendary eternal ginseng?


### Step 11

- **Objective**: Have you reached out to any other herb gatherers?

- **Summary**: Th-that could be tough. I doubt the other herb gatherers will help me 
since I haven't even followed the basic rules of our trade.
If my dear husband is ever to walk again, *sobs* 
we must find that eternal ginseng...


### Step 12

- **Reward**: It's all because I used 
dishonest ways to collect ginseng.


### Step 13

- **Objective**: Why did you not follow the rule?

- **Summary**: I was eager for us to have a child. 
We've been married for over ten years, but still no sign of a little one... 
So, in desperation, we visited a famous Do wielder. 
He advised us to regularly brew and drink wild ginseng to conceive.
But who can easily find wild ginseng? 
Even seasoned gatherers struggle with it. 
I kept quiet about my find, 
fearing others might come and take more than me.
*Sniffles* ...Perhaps the mountain guardian spirit 
decided to punish me for my greed.
My love! Please, stop being so hard on yourself. You're unwell, so at least find some peace of mind!
I'll do something. I'll do my best to win over the herb gatherers.
Kind Traveler, I know it's a lot to ask, 
but could you assist my wife in convincing the herb gatherers? 
Watching her struggle on her own 
breaks my heart as her husband.


### Step 14

- **Reward**: I should visit Youngho, the herb gatherer, and ask for his help. 
It would be reassuring if you, Traveler, could accompany me.
