Walkthrough

The Nag and the Stubborn One

Travel to the Greymanes camp at Howling Hill. You find Andrew and Naira in a heated argument. Andrew mentions they had been discussing a trip together, but the real issue is Naira's desire to bring home a stray pup she has been watching. Andrew opposes the idea, arguing they cannot properly care for another life. Naira pushes back, referencing a previous pup that ran away and accusing Andrew of ignoring the situation.

Andrew asks Kliff to talk some sense into Naira. Regardless of how you respond, Naira convinces you to accompany her to Bloomwood Ranch near the City of Hernand to see the dog.

A Chunk of Meat

Naira asks you to buy food for the stray dog. Head to Renee's butchery in the City of Hernand and purchase 5 lean meats at 15 coppers each (75 coppers total). After buying the meat, rejoin Naira at the town gate east of the butchery. She has been feeding the abandoned dog and asks you to help bring it home.

Fang without a Master

This is where the pet trust system is introduced. You need to build the stray dog's trust to maximum before you can officially adopt it.

Feeding: Open your inventory and discard lean meat on the ground near the dog. The dog eats it and gains trust. Feeding meat provides a significant trust boost. You can feed the dog up to three times per in-game day.

Petting: Approach the dog and hold the interaction prompt to pet it. Petting grants up to +25 trust per in-game day. Repeating the same action gives diminishing returns within a single day.

Combine feeding and petting over the course of the interaction. Three pieces of lean meat plus petting is generally enough to reach maximum trust. Once the trust meter fills to 100, a prompt appears to officially claim the dog as your companion. Hold the button to adopt it.

Rewards

Completing this quest also unlocks the third objective of the "Embers of Return" faction quest.

Pet Trust Mechanics

The trust system introduced in this quest applies to all animals throughout the game. Here is a summary of the core mechanics:

An animal can be claimed as a pet once its trust reaches 100. Different animals prefer different food types; dogs eat any type of meat, while cats prefer bird meat, fish, and milk.

Tips

• Buy extra lean meat from Renee while you are in Hernand. You only need 5 for the quest, but having spare meat is useful for building trust with other animals later.

• The Brown Dog is the first pet most players encounter. It follows Kliff during exploration and automatically loots items from defeated enemies during combat.

• If you run out of food during the trust-building segment, you can purchase more meat from Renee's butchery. You do not need to restart the quest.

• Pet companions can be equipped with armor to increase their defense. Without armor, pets may get injured in combat, preventing them from running until healed with Healing Force Palm.

• This quest is available starting from Chapter 4, after the "Greymanes Reunited" main quest.
