Job Location: Mountain Village
Job Description: On the west edge of Mountain Village lies a small cottage with a really big yard and in it - a ridiculously huge tree, towering above the surrounding buildings like a skyscraper. All three belong to a particularly grumpy and irritating old lady who had recently adopted a little kitty named Oliver. One day little Oliver was allowed to roam around the neighbourhood freely by his owner which inevitably led to an encounter with the homeless dogs that roam around the streets. Chased by the starving dogs, the small kitty ran back to it's owner's yard and climbed up the tree, hiding inside a tree house the neighbours' kids have built over 35 metres above ground, inside the absurdly large tree's crown. Now Oliver is too scared to climb back down, so it's up to you to return him to safety before the old lady's endless ranting shortens the villagers' lives by at least half.
Enemies:
Weak: Dogs- these homeless creatures are so starved they are ready to eat anything that fits their mouth and can be chewed, and the little kitty is a prey they find to be greatly attractive. They'll attack anyone who tries to keep them away from their lunch.
Normal: Crows- these birds nest inside the tree's crown in great numbers and usually do everything in flocks of at least 3. They view anyone climbing the tree as a threat to their eggs and are going to protect their offspring with great ferocity, regardless of who or what it is. They also like stealing shiny things.
Strong: Kids- the neighbours' children have built tree houses all over and use them to host "secret" tea ceremonies and fan clubs. They don't like to be disturbed and would do all they can to make an outsider's life miserable, such as cutting the branches the transgressor is standing on or throwing stones at them. On the bright side, they atleast have rope ladders set up, making it easier to traverse the tree. Just make sure you're not climbing one when they notice your presence.
Boss: The wind- Indeed, 30+ metres above ground tends to be a rather windy height. Just hope you are not "lucky" enough to get strong winds blow against the tree's giant frame, as it would start shaking like there is an earthquake. Not ideal when you are climbing it. Lasts for 2 posts.
Reward: 750 jewels and several dozen splinters stuck in your arms and legs.
