Tasks

You can ask the halflings or the gor'tog farmer found within the maze for tasks. Some tasks teach skills. The first ten tasks completed while in the maze reward 10 kernels each. Tasks beyond that reward 2 kernels each.

You may cancel a task using ASK HALFLING FOR TASK CANCEL, but a cooldown timer will be applied preventing you from getting a new task for a short while.

Exploring the Maze

"Okay, we'd like you to find and touch some of the landmarks in the maze! It'll be fun!"
"Okay, we'd like you to go find my fellow Halflings working in the maze and give them a good poke in the ribs for me! There are five of them."
"Okay, we'd like you to go to each section of the maze and let out a good scream! It'll make the corn maze extra spooky. There are nine sections of the maze, but if you scream in five that'll be enough."

Search Tasks

"Okay, we'd like you to search out some of the grasshoppers that are running around in the maze, snag them and bring them back to us. About ten will do." (Perception)
"Okay, we'd like you to forage some corn in the maze and bring it to me. Make sure it's ripe! Ten pieces will do." (Outdoorsmanship)
"Okay, we'd like you to search out some golden tokens in the maze. About ten pieces will do!" (Perception)

Maintaining the Maze

"Okay, we'd like you to make some scarecrows in different sections of the maze! To do this, find a good spot and BUILD it until it's done. Five total should do it." (Mechanical Lore)
"Okay, we'd like you to go pull some weeds out from between the corn. It's pretty thick in some areas. Clearing out ten areas will be appreciated." (Athletics)
"Okay, we'd like you to disarm some of the traps that have been put around the maze by some mischief-makers. Five will do." (Search/Perception Disarm/Locksmithing)
"Okay, we'd like you to chase out some of the mice that are hiding in the maze. I know they might be cute, but they're pests. You just have to WAVE your hands at them until they run from the maze. If you chase away about ten that'll be great!" (Performance)

Defeating Enemies

"Okay, we'd like you to kill some of the locusts in the green growth area of the maze. Ten of them will do."
"Okay, we'd like you to kill some of the murder crows in the ripened field area of the maze. Ten of them will do."
While not tasks themselves, finding and killing The Scarecrow (rare spawn in locust area) or Harawep's Spider (rare spawn in crow area) can reward you with kernels.

Messaging for Too Many Tasks

"You've done an awful lot of tasks really quickly. You can still take tasks, but they're not going to be worth as much. If you want you can leave the maze and come back in again."

Questions

The tall Gor'tog and the Halflings share the same responses.

corn: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "You're standing in the corn now. We basically have the harvest from one of our bigger fields and left most of it up for now! Feel free to explore as much as you want, it's lots of fun!"
maze: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "It's huge! I don't know how they did it. But there are several sections to it. About nine, I'd say! The green growth and the ripened field have some aggressive crows and an infestation of locusts inside, but the rest of the maze is pretty safe. Though it gets pretty spooky at night!"
crows: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "The murder crows are huge pests. Literally. They're in the ripened field, stealing the corn. It's so aggravating."
fun: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "There's lots of fun to be had in the corn maze! Just ask me if you want a task to do while you're in it, or start exploring!"
outfits: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "The outfits are great, and the perfect thing for Hollow Eve! See, what they do is magically remember when you APPLY items to them, and then you can wear the outfit all at once! The best part is, you don't need to keep the original item in order for your outfit to have it, it'll save it until you replace it with something new!"
dragon: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Yeah, the corn maze is in the shape of a sleeping dragon! It's pretty cool."
arthe: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Arthe Dale is our village! It's nice and quaint and quiet. This is the most exciting thing to happen to it in years!"
dale: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Arthe Dale is our village! It's nice and quaint and quiet. This is the most exciting thing to happen to it in years!"
hollow: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Yep! We're running alongside Hollow Eve this year. So when you get tired of shopping, or dying in their games, you can come here!"
eve: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Yep! We're running alongside Hollow Eve this year. So when you get tired of shopping, or dying in their games, you can come here!"
spider: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Do you mean Hollow Eve's Giant Spider, or the Spider in the corn maze? Yeah, both of them are pretty creepy."
scarecrow: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "The Scarecrow is said to haunt the ripened field. It's really spooky!"
locusts: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "The locusts are terrible! They're all in the green growth. They already wrecked part of the field and then they moved over there."
blight: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "The blight was caused by the plague locusts. They basically ate most of the corn and poisoned what was left. That entire part of the field is a total loss."
help: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "You'll need to go back into the maze to help out more."
escorts: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Yes, the maze is massive! Sometimes people get lost in there. If you spend too long in the maze, we'll escort you out of there."
prizes: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "We have lots of nice prizes at the end! We'll give you some silver corn kernels for doing things in the maze, and you can exchange those for the prizes."
kernels: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "Yes, the silver corn kernels will go in a little bottle that we can give you. Make sure you're wearing the bottle while you're in the maze so that we can easily give you the kernels! They're way too small to just carry around. The bottle's got a little pin so you can stick it on your clothes."
bottle: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "I can give you a bottle if you don't already have one!" You get handed a tiny glass bottle, which you quickly pin onto your clothes.
task: A tiny Halfling looks at you and replies, "You're already on a task. I'll repeat it to you! So we'd like you to search out some golden tokens in the maze. About ten pieces will do!"
