Quest Changes

Changes to the evolving story line have forced some differences upon the giver of this quest, as well as the ending dialogue of the quest. Here are some of the changes from past iterations.

In 2008 and 2009, you had to speak with Priestess Annalisa Swornlove outside the Freeport Gate in The Commonlands at -1103,-60,15 , or with Priest Aaronolis Swornlove at 132, -21, -23 , outside the North Qeynos Gate in Antonica.

In 2009, upon completion you were told: "Now, you must forgive my sudden departure, but my sibling, in blood and faith, has requested my immediate presence in Antonica's Coastal Grove." This is a clue... follow them! (There's a druid ring conveniently close to where they are.) This opened up the quest Bouquet of Trust (good alignment) or Bouquet of Thorny Trust (evil alignment).

In 2010 Bouquet of Trust and Bouquet of Thorny Trust are only available if you have not done them before.

In 2011 Bouquet of Thorny Trust was discontinued, but Bouquet of Trust remained in-game for those who have not done it before.

In 2012 Shot Through the Heart and What's Love Got to Do With It? only becomes available if you have never done it before and while on the quest Unforgettable.

Erollisi Day occurs annually around Valentine's Day (Feb. 14th).
This article refers to things only available in-game during the event.
(Introduced in 2008)

OOC The title of this quest is a reference to a song lyric from the musical, Fiddler on the Roof.

"Matchmaker, Matchmaker, make me a match!
Find me a find, catch me a catch!"

Lore

Below are the full dialogues for this quest.

Find 'em a Find, Catch 'em a Catch 2010 & 2011:

You say, "Hail, David Torchsong"
David Torchsong says to you, "What? Oh, I must apologize, adventurer. I have been rather distraught as of late."
You say to David Torchsong, "What about?"
David Torchsong says to you, "I have been thinking of our lost goddess of love. I am heartbroken by the news of her demise. Her mighty brother, Mithaniel, has returned to us, as have so many others, but Erollisi perished, sacrificing her life for that of her brother's. If she were to return or to have a planar successor, love and compassion would take a grander hold upon us all!"
You say to David Torchsong, "She is truly dead?"
David Torchsong says to you, "Perish the thought! I simply cannot entertain the idea that love could be conquered by death."
You say to David Torchsong, "Me either."
David Torchsong says to you, "Well, I was thinking that maybe we could perform some grand miracles of love in Norrath. The resulting emotions will then be released -emotions, like love and compassion, are free to travel the different planes of reality, you know? And wherever our Lady of Love's essence may be, she will be sure to receive these life affirming and invigorating energies."
You say to David Torchsong, "Could they help?"
David Torchsong says to you, "They may not help her, but they help each and every one of us. And these emotions are helpful and oh so necessary for life on Norrath to thrive. Would you like to help me perform these miracles of love?"
You say to David Torchsong, "Yes, of course!"
David Torchsong says to you, "Delightful! I know of several here in town that could truly benefit from the glow of love within their lives, and others that have come to me looking for help finding that special someone."
You say to David Torchsong, "We're to play matchmaker?"
David Torchsong says to you, "Isn't it exciting!? I'll give you the names of the townsfolk that you should speak to. Talk with them a while and find out who would be best coupled together, based upon what they say."
You say to David Torchsong, "I can do that!"

Find 'em a Find, Catch 'em a Catch 2012:

You say, "Hail, Diana Heartstrings"
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "I greet you, great adventurer! Isn't it wonderful!?"
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "What is so wonderful?"
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "Our lost goddess of love has returned to us! I was heartbroken by the news of her demise, but now that she has returned love and compassion can take a grander hold upon us all."
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "Erollisi Marr is back?"
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "Isn't it wondrous? Love has proven that it cannot be conquered by death! I feel like celebrating. Don't you?"
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "What kind of celebration?"
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "I was thinking that we could perform some grand miracles of love in Norrath. The resulting emotions will then be released -emotions, like love and compassion, giving glory and strengthening our Lady of Love. Would you like to help me perform these miracles of love?"
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "I can help you."
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "Delightful! I know of several here in town that could truly benefit from the glow of love within their lives, and others that have come to me looking for help finding that special someone."
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "We're to play matchmaker?"
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "Isn't it exciting!? I'll give you the names of the townsfolk that you should speak to. Talk with them a while and find out who would be best coupled together, based upon what they say."
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "That sounds good."

After correctly answering the matches:

Diana Heartstrings says to you, "I feel harmony within your choices! The love we have helped to blossom this day is a miracle performed in the name of Erollisi Marr. Bless us upon this humble world, Holy Goddess."
You say to Diana Heartstrings, "So say we all!"
You gain Alternate Advancement experience by completing a quest!
You receive a Brown Teddy Othmir.
You receive Erollisi coin.

Ending in 2010 and 2011:
David Torchsong says to you, "You know, if you are interested, there may be more work for one as dedicated to love, as you. I would suggest you venture to New Halas in Frostfang Sea and speak with Priestess Annalisa Swornlove. She is there with her brother and the sisterhood of Erollisi."

Ending starting in 2012:
Diana Heartstrings says to you, "You know, if you are interested, there may be more work for one as dedicated to love, as you. I would suggest you venture to New Halas in Frostfang Sea and speak with Priest Swornlove. He is there with the sisterhood of Erollisi."
