Speak to James in Fort Pinta to begin your retail adventure.
Taking the Bus to Jorvik City Plaza!
Hi Rita. Sigh.
Why am I sighing? Hmm… Almost all of the clothes I have in stock to sell to the tourists here are sold out. I guess it’s a pretty nice problem to have, since it means I’ve already sold lots of stuff, but it’s still a problem…
Before now, I’ve always been able to order new clothes and have the delivered from Jorvik City, but lately it’s not been going very well. All the packages of clothes seem to be getting lost, like by the roadside and so on, which means I don’t end up with anything to sell. I should really head over to Jorvik City now and pick up some new stock, but who’d be here taking care of all the tourists if I went there?
So, yeah… Rita… Might you be able to do me a favor? Could you go to the mall for me and pick up the things I’ve ordered? The mall? Yeah, Jorvik City Plaza, Jorvik’s biggest shopping mall!
You’ll go? Amazing! Thanks Rita! You could probably also pick up the horse gear I’ve ordered as well. Y’know, while you’re there…
How do you get to Jorvik City Plaza? It’s easy! All you have to do is take the bus. There’s even a bus stop right here in Fort Pinta!
But… You need a bus ticket. Unfortunately, every bus ticket can only be used by the person who bought it, otherwise I’d lend you mine.
It’s easy to buy your own though. The Notary here in Fort Pinta sells bus tickets, so buy one from him. When you’ve bought it, you activate it in the machine here behind me.
I haven’t really got the time to carry on chatting now Rita, business calls! So, buy a bus ticket and activate it in the machine behind me.
Objectives: Get a bus ticket. If you don’t already have one, you can buy one from the Notary in Fort Pinta. Activate your bus ticket in the machine behind James, then return to talk to James again.

Bus tickets cost 110 Jorvik Shillings, but need only be purchased once. After you buy it, you can keep it in your inventory for every time you want to ride the bus (you need the ticket to use the bus, such as the key for the secret Greendale treehouse, or ticket for Ydris’ Circus).
When you buy the ticket, dismount your horse and use it on the activation machine, then speak to James.
Have you got a bus ticket now, Rita? Good. And you’ve activated it as well?
Splendid! Then it’s off to Jorvik City Plaza!

To Jorvik City in No Time!
Excellent Rita! Now you’ve got a bus ticket, and it’s validated as well! Believe me, those bus drivers can spot an invalid ticket from a mile away!
Hurry off to the mall now, though; no time to waste! The bus leaves from the other side of the bridge to Fort Pinta. All you need to do is go there and wait for the bus to come. Show your ticket to the driver, and then he’ll drive you to the mall in no time at all!
Don’t hang out there for too long, just think of all the customers I won’t be able to trick… Umm… I mean, make happy during all the time you’re away if I haven’t got anything to sell!
Seeya!
Objectives: Take the bus to the mall in Jorvik City. The bus leaves from the bus stop on the other side of the bridge into Fort Pinta. The bus leaves every few minutes so you might have to wait a short while if you’ve just missed one.

Wait by the bus stop. There is a countdown timer on the bus sign that will tell you when the next bus will arrive. When the bus pulls up, dismount your horse, and use your ticket from your inventory.
When you arrive at the mall, look around near the door for someone who must surely know what’s going on here…
Hey! You there! Yeah, you! Can’t you see I just mopped that floor?
Kids these days… Sigh… No respect for their elders.

No Respect for My Craft
Well well, what can I do for you then? You’re picking up stuff for James in Fort Pinta, you say?
Heh! Well you’re certainly not the first victim he’s sent to do his work for him, all because he’s too cheap to buy his own bus ticket, he sends other people he sends here to do his heavy lifting. Who do you think has to take care of all these little lost sheep he sends here?
Exactly! It’s me! But now I’ve had enough! I can’t be bothered to help you as well as all the others, you’ll have to look after yourself!
Sigh. Okay, since you ask so nicely… You can help me with something in return though, first.
You’ll be happy to help me, you say?! Well that’s great! Maybe you’re not as useless as all these other pushovers James sends…
As you can see, the floor here’s completely spotless. Not a bad job, if I do say so myself! Sadly, people just walk all over it any which way they please, but we’re going to put a stop to that. They act like they own the place, they never show any respect for my hard work. Pff.
Here, set out these warning signs where I’ve just mopped, and maybe the floor will be able to stand up to their filth for at least a little while.
Go on, get out of here. Place out the signs and don’t come back before it’s done.
Objectives: Set out the warning signs around the mall.
Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP
Reputation: 20 with Jorvik City Plaza
Place the warning signs around the first and second floors of the mall, then return to the Janitor when you are done.
Yeah, yeah, that’s not so dumb. Maybe there’s hope for you yet.

All Those Other Sheep in the Mall
Hmm, did you think you were finished?
Haha, no. I knew you’d think you were finished, you’re a total lazybones just like everyone else who visits my mall!
You’re not a lazybones, you say? Okay, well let’s see about that. You can have a chance to prove you’re not a sleepy little slacker like all the others; spoiled little princesses wandering around like they own the place, leaving all their garbage behind them.
Rude is what they are! Rude and vile! When I tell the boss about the rude, vile pigs, all I hear is “you should smile at the customers.”
Bah! If it was up to me, I’d keep all of them out of the mall and then there’d finally be a bit of order round here. Ah well, until that day comes, somebody’s gonna have to pick up all the rubbish they throw everywhere and today, that somebody isn’t going to be me. Ha!
Pick up all the garbage you find lying around the place and then maybe I’ll help you. Go on! Get moving! Scram!
Objectives: Pick up the trash from around the mall and then return to the Janitor.

Well, if you close the mall to everyone, when who’s going to pay your wages, Mr Janitor? Didn’t think of that now, huh??
Good. You’ve done a really nice job.
Okay, you seem to be a little better bred than some of the other nitwits that hang around here at the mall. I’ll help you.

Faster Than a Runaway Horse
Well, you surely know how that James works. Last time he was here, he tried to get me to buy a time-share apartment in one of the towers of Fort Pinta. It wasn’t even built, it didn’t even have planning permission, but he still tried to get me to put down a deposit that was enough money to have bought half of Valedale! Pffff.
I seem to remember letting him know exactly what I thought of him at the time. Haha! I’ve never seen anyone run so fast!
Haha! He must’ve run all the way back to Fort Pinta faster than a bolting horse! Since then, he’s never dared show his face around here, which is probably why that wretched little rat sent you instead…
Ah well, James orders clothes from Gordon at the clothes store over there. Talk to Gordon, he’s a friendly sort and can probably do something for you.
Come back to me with the clothes delivery once you’ve got it. No point carrying around a huge heavy pile of clothes while you’re hear. I’ll look after them until you’re ready to ride back to James.
Objectives: Talk to Gordon in the Mall’s clothes store.

The clothes store is on the first floor of the mall.
Hello! Welcome to Jorvik City Plaza’s clothes store! The biggest clothes store in all of Jorvik!
If you want to try on some of our fabulous outfits, all you need to do is go into the fitting room over there and check out our collections!
Clothes delivery to James? Oh right. I thought you wanted to buy something.
Oh well.
Hmm… Now let’s see…
Exactly! James’ order… I have it in the stock room, wait a second and I’ll grab it for you.

Track Back the Backpack
Ah. Hmm.
I lock the door to the stock room every evening. I always have the keys in my backpack since I’m forever losing little things like keys and coins, so the backpack helps me remember where everything is. Hold on, I’ll just grab it.
Hmm…
Where’s my backpack?
No! I must’ve left it somewhere!
Oh no… This means I can’t get into the stock room…
Would you be able to help me? My backpack must be around here somewhere. Could you take a look around the mall and see if you can find it?
Objectives: Find Gordon’s backpack somewhere in the mall, then return to him at the clothes store.

Seriously, what is with people losing keys and stuff all the time??
Amazing! You found my backpack!
Haha, you’ll never guess what happened while you were away. I’d forgotten to lock the door to the stock room, so I didn’t need the key in the backpack in the end. It’s really nice of you to help me though!
Seems like forgetting to lock the stock room was pretty lucky in the end. I found time to pick out the items on James’ order while you were out looking for my backpack.

Half a Ton of Clothes
Here, who was supposed to get the order again? James! Of course, that’s how it was.
Hmm… Are you sure you don’t need to go to the mall Janitor first? Everyone else who James sends seems to go to him, and I can understand why! This order must weight half a ton! You won’t want to wander around with all that extra weight if you don’t need to!
Objectives: Return to the mall Janitor with the clothes.
Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP
Reputation: 20 with Jorvik City Plaza
Take the stuff back to the Janitor.
Hello again! So you got James’ clothes order? It’s quite heavy, right? Thought so! His orders usually are.
I’ll look after everything here while you get the rest of James’ stuff!

Jorvik City Plaza: Horse Equipment Store
So, James sent you to pick up the horse equipment he ordered?
Right. He must’ve ordered it from Alyx, she’s the owner of the horse equipment store here in Jorvik City Plaza. Go and talk to her, and then come back once you’ve got the delivery. I’ll keep my eye on it for you until you’re ready to go back to James with it, if you leave it with me. No point wandering around with a bunch of heavy saddles and stuff if you don’t have to.
Objectives: Talk to Alyx in the horse equipment store.

Welcome to Jorvik’s biggest equipment store! How can I help you?

What Old JB Says
I thought that I’d do James a favor, so I sent his delivery of on its way. It was only a couple minutes ago that I sent it, so you’re lucky!
You don’t look happy. You won’t have to carry it anymore, cheer up!
Haha! You’re strange. Why do you want to do loads of work if you can get away with not doing it?
You promised him, you say? Oh, okay.
If you hurry, you might catch up with JB before he sets off from the mall.
Who’s JB?
He’s the driver that takes all the deliveries to Silverglade. He usually stops for a cup of coffee before he gets out on the road in his truck. Hurry over to the cafe and you might just catch him.
See you! Come back soon!
Objectives: Talk to JB the driver at the mall cafe.
Rewards: 10 Jorvik Shillings, 5 XP
Reputation: 15 with Jorvik City Plaza
You’ll find JB by the cafe counter, with a big crate next to him. He’s the weirdo that refers to himself in third-person…
Stop.
Hold it one second… Back up, back up. Let JB drink his coffee in peace before he goes back to putting his life on the line out on the roads of Jorvik.
Shhh…
…
Hmm… This isn’t coffee! This is… TEA!
Everyone just calm down! JB is here, just take it easy.
Y’know what old JB would say when this kind of thing happens?
What?! You don’t know who JB is? I”M JB!
What’s you name? Rita. Mhm, well it doesn’t matter anyway. I’ve got a job for you. Get me some coffee. With milk. Don’t forget the milk!
Quest completed
We’ll need to find some coffee with milk somewhere around here… Speak to the cashier at the cafe, Clementine. Maybe she can help?
Mall Dishes
Hello there! Do you have a moment?
Would you be able to help me with something? I wouldn’t ask if it wasn’t urgent.
Thanks!
So it’s like this: all the customers that order from the cafe don’t just sit nicely at their tables, and instead wander off around the mall with my cups and saucers and just leave them randomly lying around the place.
Because of this, I’m almost out of dishes to serve things in, and I’m on my own here so I can’t leave the cafe to pick them all up.
I’d be able to stay here and serve the guests if you wouldn’t mind going around the mall and gathering up all the dishes…
Thanks so much! This is super nice of you.
Objectives: Find all the dishes left behind around the mall.
Rewards: 15 Jorvik Shillings, 10 XP, Coffee with Milk
Reputation: 25 with Jorvik City Plaza
Geez, the nerve of some people!
Collect all the dishes, then return to Clementine.
Great! You found all the dishes that disappeared from the cafe!
Thanks a lot!
Quest completed
Now trade your cup of coffee with JB. Hopefully that will perk him up.
Call the Councilman After Sunrise
Ha!
Now I’m ready! Time to get out onto the open road again. Keep the home fires burning and if I’m not back by sunrise, call the Councilman!
What now? A delivery for James, you ask?
Of course! It’s right here beside me. You can trust old JB, my deliveries always get where they’re going! Door to door! Last month I managed to drive off the bridge to Fort Pinta only THREE times! Three! That’s a new record!
You can tell James that JB’s on his way!
You’ll take the order to James, you say? Oh, okay. Less work for me, I suppose! Take it!
Objectives: Pick up the delivery next to JB and take it to the Janitor.
Rewards: 20 Jorvik Shillings, 20 XP
Reputation: 20 with Jorvik City Plaza
Open the box to pick up James’ stuff and bring it to the Janitor.
Looks like you got the horse equipment James ordered! I’ll keep an eye on it until you’re ready to head back to Fort Pinta.
Quest completed
If you want to continue shopping and exploring the mall, do not start the next quest, as it will send you back to Fort Pinta. If you are ready to leave, then by all means…
Back to James
So there we go, no you’ve got both the deliveries James wanted. Come back to the mall tomorrow if you want, but wipe your feet on the way in, I don’t want more dirty feet tramping over my nice clean floors!
I hope you get something from James for all the trouble you’ve gone to.
Not likely, but now you’ve got yourself a bus ticket, you’ll be able to come back here whenever you like.
See you soon!
Objectives: Return to Fort Pinta and talk to James.

Puuuh-lease! Do I look like a pushover to you? I ain’t letting that little turd get away without rewarding me!
Hey Rita, how did it go?
Wonderful! Both clothes and horse equipment! These are going to sell like hot cakes!
Reward? I promised you a rewards? Hmm, seems like you remembered wrong.
Okay, okay, you can have something. Hold on, lemme see what I’ve got in this box…
Here, this is probably nice or something, you’ll like it. Now you’ll have to excuse me, I’ve got business to attend to.
Quest completed
Well pardon me, don’t let me distract you from all the work you didn’t have to do to get this stuff here…
You can now go to the mall whenever you like, just catch the bus at the Fort Pinta bridge. Make sure you have your ticket in your inventory and you’ll be ready to go!
