Walkthrough
Starting the Quest
Head to the Notice Board in the City of Hernand Plaza and read Turnali's Poster to unlock the quest. Then visit Turnali's blacksmith shop, which is located northeast of the Notice Board. Look for the anvil icon on your map. Turnali's shop is also where Rhett (a large man with a spear) stands guard outside.
Speak to Turnali to learn about his problem. He explains that his mallet is broken and he needs fine timber to craft new handles. Since he cannot leave the forge unattended, he asks Kliff to gather wood from the forest east of the city.
Gathering Fine Timber
Turnali gives you a Logging Axe. Equip it by holding F2 (Left D-pad on controller) to open the equipment wheel, then move the arrow to the top left slot. If you have multiple tools, use the mouse wheel to cycle to the Logging Axe and release F2 to confirm.
Exit the city and head east toward the forest on the island between the rivers. The location is marked on your map. Approach a tree, hold CTRL (LB on controller) to bring up the targeting circle, position it over the trunk, and left-click (RB on controller) to chop. Each tree yields timber. You need to collect 3 fine timber to proceed.
Delivering the Timber
Return to Turnali's shop and hand over the 3 fine timber. He thanks you and gives you Turnali's Smithy Flyer, a key item that explains how equipment refinement works.
Refining the Bekker Shield
Open your inventory and read the Smithy Flyer from the Key Items section. Turnali also provides 10 timber and a Bekker Shield for you to practice with. Use the refinement option at Turnali's shop to upgrade the shield using the timber he gave you. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the refinement process.

Tips
This quest functions as a tutorial for two major systems: logging and equipment refinement. Both become important for crafting throughout the rest of the game.
The Logging Axe is a permanent tool you keep after the quest. It can be used on trees anywhere in the world to gather timber.
The Medium Bag reward is an inventory expansion, making this quest well worth completing early.
Maximizing Trust with Hernand merchants can unlock new shop items, trade agreements, and other benefits.
After completing this quest, Rhett's Request becomes available at the same Notice Board.
