Which Way Did He Go?

Reward
 * 1,500 XP
 * 250 Gold
 * Trade Contract

Dialogue
 * "Have you seen my good-for-nothing brother-in-law, Tidak? I asked him to clean out the planters, but of course he disappeared. I swear if it wasn't for my wife I would have gotten rid of that lazy slugabed ages ago! If you catch that snoozing lothario in your travels, kick him in the rump for me, will you?"


 * Accept: "Can I smack him around, too?"
 * Reject: "If I find the guy, I'll probably take a nap myself. It's hard work looking this good."

Intermediate Dialogue (Gardener Tidak)
 * "Whoah... good thing you showed up when you did. I woke up to a gaggle of those snarling beasts sizing me up for a meal. Hey... speaking of food, I'm hungry. I should tell Hinon I'm going on a lunch break now. I mean, I should tell him, but I won't. He'll figure it out, I'm sure. My sister married a smart one. Later!"

Reward Dialogue
 * "WHAT?!?! He went to lunch?! That's it! When I get home I'm telling my wife her lackadaisical loser of a brother can sleep all he wants. Why? Because he's FIRED! I don't care if he is her brother, he's not mine. And even if he was, I still wouldn't put up with this nonsense! Here, you can have his pay since you actually earned it more than he did. Bah! Kids these days...."

Walkthrough
Tidak is just outside the Gardens to the south (north-west of the exit to Forum Highlands). If started from Tihark Orchard, it is very possible that you have cleared the area of monsters already. In this case, the second objective will already be marked complete and you just have to go talk to Tidak and return to Hinon. Otherwise, work your way over to him, kill any monsters in the vicinity, speak to him, and then return for your reward.
