    Variant dungeon unlock quest "An Odd Job" needs edits after addition of more dungeons

    The quest "An Odd Job" unlocks the quest hub for variant dungeons in Old Sharlayan.

    However, the explanation is phrased in a way that made sense when there was only one quest available to take once the hub was unlocked, but now there are two.

    Current text of the later part of the quest:

    SHALLOW MOOR

    Thus the guildship, in its wisdom, has forged a partnership with the Adventurers' Guild. We now have a system in place where odd jobs from other countries can be funneled here to us in Sharlayan!

    The tasks they pass on to us are, for the most part, naught your average gleaner cannot handle.

    There is one client, however, who has asked for you specifically. And as the Adventurers' Guild has no official presence in our city, we agreed to the “odd job” of facilitating that request─think of us as their substitute Sharlayan branch, if you will.

    In any case, I'll be here at the counter, ready to provide you with the details! It doesn't appear to be an urgent matter, so feel free to engage the request whenever your schedule allows.

    Oh, and be sure to browse Trisassant's wares. He has a special selection available for anyone who takes part in our odd job enterprise!


    OSMON

    Ah, Forename...? I didn't quite get the chance before Shallow Moor commandeered the conversation, but I wanted to thank you for indulging me with your stories.

    Do you think we might talk again sometime? I should love to hear how this odd job of yours turns out!


    SYSTEM

    As a result of the partnership between the Adventurers' Guild and the gleaners' guildship, you are now able to accept an odd job from Shallow Moor at the peristyle.
    On a side note, the non-capitalisation of "peristyle" seems a strange choice. While I see the game script tends towards not capitalising where it isn't necessary (and is teaching me to lean more that way in my own writing!) the Peristyle seems to be a proper name for the location and not just a label, especially when it's a foreign word.

    (There are also a number of capitalisation oddities in things like weapon names, but that's a whole different post of its own sometime.)

    The word peristyle is an architectural term and a generic reference to a/the peristyle is probably okay.
