Help Hunt the Snails

I wonder where Maria is... Oh, hello traveler! Are you, by any chance, heading east? If so, can you do me a favor?

You're new here, aren't you? What can I do for you?

Lucas, who lives in Amherst, asked me to get rid of the snails to protect his neighbors. I have a hunch it's because of their fear of Snails.

Could you please hunt 10 Snails, so the village is safe from them? Afterwards, please notify Lucas and let him know it's safe.

You can reach Amherst by traveling east. Also, you can check the World Map by pressing the W key.

Oh, did you eliminate some Snails? Well, that is just so nice of you! Now we can all pick mushrooms in peace.

I think you deserve something nice for helping us out! Don't try to be modest...It's my turn to help you. You've got that look that says you want to be strong, am I right? Well, I can introduce you to a trainer that will pump you right up! That's right, so come talk to me when you're ready.

Hmmm... But think of other people in fear!

Hmmm... Defeat 10 Snails, then keep heading right until you see Lucas.

Hmmm? Are you here on Sam's behalf? Then please hunt 10 Snails first then talk to me.
