“Find objects of value and give them to the jotun in exchange for jotun runestones. Return runestones to Albin.— Heart objective
Contents |
[edit] Walkthrough
The objective of this heart is to buy items from one camp and resell them to the jotun on the other side. Items bought have a set time limit to be sold before they disappear. Norn Supplies is an exception.
Scavenge the area around the huts for loose ore, gryphon eggs, or rabbit holes. Unless sold to a specific jotun (as outlined in the table below), loose ore, gryphon eggs, and rabbits will trade for 2 runestones.
| Item | Sell to | Sell price |
|---|---|---|
| Loose Ore | East, Kakifein | 5 |
| Griffon Egg | East, Grokor | 5 |
| Hare | West, Trugg | 5 |
Once you have around 45 runestones you can turn them in to finish the heart or keep trading.
Note that occasionally an item will spawn inside the camp, rather than outside it. In addition, players should be cautious when picking up bundles that can easily be discarded. For instance, loose ore/rubble may be thrown, after which it will be unrecoverable; however, rabbits will give players a reusable speed boost for the same hotkey.
The following table outlines which jotun will offer players the best trades.
| Item | Buy from | Buy price | Sell to | Sell price | Profit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rabbit Cage | East, Kakifein | 2 | East, Grokor | 8 | 6 |
| Stick | West, Trugg | 4 | West, Jokull | 8 | 4 |
| Barrel | East, Grokor | 4 | West, Trugg | 8 | 4 |
| Rusty Scrap | West, Jokull | 4 | East, Kakifein | 8 | 4 |
| Bottle of Wine | West, Jokull | 3 | East, Grokor | 5 | 2 |
| Jute Sack | West, Trugg | 3 | East, Kakfein | 5 | 2 |
| Tool | East, Kakifein | 3 | West, Trugg | 5 | 2 |
| Shovel | East, Grokor | 3 | West, Jokull | 5 | 2 |
| Truffle | East, Grokor | 2 | East, Kakifein | 2 | 0 |
| Crate | West, Jokull | 2 | West, Trugg | 2 | 0 |
| Stone | East, Grokor | 2 | East, Kakifein | 2 | 0 |
| Sword | East, Kakifein | 4 | West, Jokull | 2 | -2 |

Albin Chronicler
We Made a Deal
Thought it may not seem like much, the trading we did with those Jotun will make a lasting impact on their tribes. Hopefully they will learn from this experience and continue to trade peacefully with each other for years to come.
As an added bonus, the runic bloodstones that we received will go a long way towards our efforts in reading the ancient Jotun languages. We may decipher the ancient Jotun texts just yet!

[edit] Notes
- After you have about 35 Runestones you can just deliver them to Albin to complete the heart.
- Norn Supplies are sold by Trugg for 2 Jotun Runestones. They cannot be sold to other jotun.
- "Tool" appears to be a pincer.
- Items sold by the jotun do not show names.
- Items can still be bought after completing the task, but cannot be sold to the jotun and will not disappear from hand.
- If your inventory is full while you're receiving runestones, you will recieve quest progress but will not be notified and will not be able to trade with the Jotuns, as you don't have any runestones in your inventory.
- The purchaseable rabbit has an option to release it to gain a fierce rabbit ally, but it will only roam the area of release and not follow the player.
