Dialogue:
 * "We are short on every major supply and to make it worse, that damnable pet of Old Mac's is eating what remains of our meat. See if you can talk to the man and find a way to feed his pet without sacrificing our remaining food stores. I've tried it myself and his pet almost ate me! Mac is on guard duty just outside Beacon's Perch in Deldrimor Bowl."


 * "Can you help me out with this?"

Intermediate Dialogue 1 (Old Mac)
 * ''"I know that Joe here can be a bit of a glutton but it isn't his fault! He's a growing young Devourer and he's got to keep his strength up if he's to help me defend things around here.  His favorite food is those succulent junipers that grow north of here, but I can't take him to go get them since I'm on duty."


 * "Would you help me out and go take Joe foraging with you? If you feed him about 10 of the succulent juniper meats that should keep him content for a long while."

Intermediate Dialogue 2 (Old Mac)
 * "There's a good lad Joe, all full? Thank you for taking such good care of Joe, .  You go tell Master Saberlin that he doesn't have to worry about Joe any longer."

Reward Dialogue
 * "So you're sure that devourer is sated? Well then, good work, .  That should help our food situation a bit.  I hate to say it, but it helps having that creature around; we haven't had an ettin attack in days."

Followup:
 * The Deserters

Walkthrough
Do not talk to either Old Mac or Joe the devourer just yet, as the quest summary suggests. If you do, Joe will follow you around and it may be difficult to keep him alive, because of his low level. Kill Succulent Junipers and gather 10 Succulent Juniper Meat. If you did accidentally talk to him first, you can just let him die, gather the meat and rezone from Beacon's Perch, He will be located near the portal, you can continue the quest by feeding him 10 Juniper meat from your inventory. Speak with Old Mac and return to Master Saberlin for your reward

There are 2 spots with Succulent Junipers, see map for reference.

Note
Feeding Joe less than 10 pieces, and then leaving this zone, re-sets the number of Succulent Juniper Meats needed. So only feed Joe the full amount, nothing less or your efforts will be wasted.
