yeah, I know, I'm huge. Scary. Green. But I'm chill!
Name's Gronk. I'm a troll. From... well, long story."

PLAYER: "A troll? Like... fairy tale troll?"

GRONK: "Nah man, I'm not gonna eat you or whatever.
I'm vegetarian. Well, I eat fish sometimes. And cheese.
But mostly plants! I LOVE farming!"

uh... never mind. Point is, I'm stuck. Lost. Alone.
Well, not totally alone..."

She's been keeping me company."

do you have a farm nearby? I'm REALLY good at farming.
Like, REALLY good. Grew up on a farm. 500 years ago..."

If RECRUIT (RECOMMENDED!):

You won't regret this! I'm the BEST farm helper!

Plus, I know how to make some sick vape liquids.
