This is one of few, "now I know this area" and the game fools you to do wrong everytime.
How did you find this out and how long did it take?
The notion of chat with NPCs for info and quest could be gotten from playing other games like mud for example but it's very suttle and hidden among a ton of other game commands, on top of that very few gives answers or quests.
How long did it take until you began using chat command and do you recall which was your first quest?
The alternate quests in Terinyo is a trap similar to arena reward, you think you know something and begin repeating that part which would make the other quest never gotten.
How did you find out of the other quest?
