If we're actually going to Castle Bocklin, we need to do something about the knights guarding you. What!? Pop Cola's going to cover for us? She'll just rat us out if we talk to her! And what's this beef jerky for? Playfighting with the wolves? Huh…
You and Pop Cola have done this before. Hm, she was never interested in exploring or hunting. Oh, I see. You did this whenever you wanted to visit the city or villages outside of Swordhaven. Must have been nice.
