Expanded with Rhett's Request full walkthrough, iron ore location, assistant delivery twist, trust system, and shop details
Rhett is the equipment vendor at the Hernand Equipment Shop in the City of Hernand. Blessed with talented hands, he earned the moniker "The Artist of Iron" for the quality of his work. He is one of the first NPCs players encounter when exploring the town and offers an early request that rewards a crucial inventory expansion.
Rhett's shop is one of the primary sources for weapons, armor, and combat equipment in the early game, and completing his request should be a priority for every new player.
Rhett runs the Hernand Equipment Shop, located in the middle of Hernand Town near Turnali's Smithy. The two shops sit next to each other, a short distance east down the road from the tavern. The shop is easy to find when exploring the town's central market area.

Rhett sells weapons, armor, and other combat equipment from his shop. As the primary equipment vendor in Hernand, his inventory is essential for players gearing up before heading into the field. Higher-quality items become available as the player progresses through the story and builds Trust with Rhett.
Building Trust with any Hernand merchant through completed requests and trade can unlock new shop inventory, special trade agreements, and hidden information that is not available at lower reputation levels.
Rhett's Request is one of the earliest Commissions available in the game and one of the most important for new players. It introduces the mining mechanic and rewards an inventory expansion.
Speak with Rhett at his equipment shop in Hernand. He will provide you with a Pickaxe and mark a mining location on your map.
Travel to the iron ore deposit. The closest node is located southwest of Hernand City, near Anvil Hill. Leave through the town's southern exit and walk west along the path. You can jump down from the elevated path to reach the ore deposit below.
Mine 2 Iron Ore from the deposit using the Pickaxe Rhett gave you.
Deliver the Iron Ore to Rhett's assistant (not to Rhett himself). The assistant is stationed south of Hernand near the Equinsher Saddlery area by some wagons. He is described as a shirtless giant and is easy to spot.
The quest does not explicitly tell the player that the ore must go to Rhett's assistant rather than Rhett directly. Many players return to Rhett's shop only to find they cannot complete the quest there. Follow the quest marker carefully, or check south of Hernand near the Saddlery for the assistant.
If the quest tracker unmarks the objective, reactivate it through your Journal to get an updated map marker pointing to the assistant's location.
Standard Inventory Expansion Tool: Increases your carrying capacity, making this one of the most valuable early-game rewards.
Contribution Points: Earned for the Hernand region.
Pickaxe: You keep the Pickaxe after the quest, which is needed for future mining and gathering tasks.
Trust: Increased Trust with Rhett, which can unlock better shop inventory over time.
Complete Rhett's Request as soon as possible. The inventory expansion is one of the most impactful early rewards in the game.
While mining iron ore for the quest, gather extra Copper and Iron from nearby deposits. These materials are useful for crafting later.
Keep the Pickaxe after completing the quest. You will need it for resource gathering throughout the game.
The assistant is south of Hernand by the Saddlery and wagons, not at Rhett's shop. Follow the quest marker if you get lost.
