Hello {PLAYER_NAME}! I was looking for you all day long, where have you been? It doesn't matter now, I need your help! I've got a message from Farmer Pete Cunnigham. His farm is being terrorized by Indians for weeks now. They steal his crops, his money and his family is too scared to leave the house. Could you check on him?
 Finish
That is very nice of you! I will give you a list of things to take with you tomorrow morning. It will be a long list and a long trip! Get some rest now, you will need your strength.

Start
After riding for days through the lonesome prairie you see smoke rising up behind the next hill. You take another look at the map, make sure that this is Pete's farm and put spurs to your horse. Upon your arrival, all you see is some Indians riding away in the distance. The farm is on fire, but much to your relief the family doesn't seem to be in the house. You better start extinguishing that fire, but where will you get the water?
 Finish
Pete:Thank you for your help! I couldn't have done it alone and we would have lost our farm. Now we even have an irrigation system for our crops. I wanted to build one for a long time but I never found the time. But come on, let's talk down at the river, it is cool and shady there.

You know that you could overwhelm him, but you would need a rope to tie him up.
 Finish
