".....actually, why am I asking you about that? You're probably used to that stuff even more than I am, probably don't even think it's that weird. Alright, never mind that. What're you thinking of doing now?"

"....you're not serious, are you?"

A pair of Wiggler-headed hunters approach Jarvis, carrying a small pouch and something wrapped in paper.
"Sorry, MMMPH. We can't give you much. We're MMMPH short on supplies ourselves, as you can MMPH see. However, Josephine there told us you'd helped us out, so we feel we MMPH you something."
"We don't have weapons we can spare, let alone for a MMMPH group of adventurers, even if you're MMPH of us. However, we can give you this."

They pass over the pouch, which seems to be full of rhea, and the object. Upon unwrapping, the object is revealed to be a shield of leather and steel, painted with the colours of the Great Wiggler.

"It's a shield from your home, made from Mavenus leather. We brought it over when we MMPH up here. Figured you'd have better use of it, since it's all we can really spare. Used to be Thaddeus' before he decided to use a horn instead. Also, some money. It's not much, but MMMPH all we got."
"Hope it'll be of some use!"

Obtained x1 Wiggler Shield!
Obtained 450 rhea!

"Are we done here? Because if so I have to call some people that intimidate me a hell of a lot more than you do, so I'd appreciate some privacy."

"If you believe your Order is capable of stopping the Zoanthropes, you are deeply mistaken."
The woman surveys the group, as if making to attack, before.....
"My task here is done. You have been warned. You will not be warned again."

With that, the woman leaps off into the darkness, leaving the party behind and with no Zoanthrope.

"Look, all I know is, Yuki apparently asked to make sure the drinks they had at the resort weren't alcoholic, they drank, and next thing they new, they were in kingshaven and couldn't remember last night. Yuki also drank some random whiskey she found in a bottle after already being drunk, or something to that effect."

"Alright. I assume you had a pretty crazy time too? Sounds like I missed out."

".....drunk off your asses? Her ass? And Faith didn't blow a gasket over Yuki getting drunk?"

The armored woman's hands twitch, as if making to lift the staff and resisting the urge.
"These Zoanthropes are essential. Your pursuit is getting in the way."
