Who has seen this quest, in Halflings chapter XI?
It appears that the 'pay xxx' quests are not just Event phenomena - now they will be found in Mainline quests too!
I don't think many people are going to like this format!
I am a pretty frugal guy who hates waste - and I am sure there are many many other players who feel the same.
Throwing away precious materials goes against every instinct I have!
I think the designers should reconsider quests like these - they are certain to cause ill-feeling and increase player dissatisfaction...

1. The basic idea is a good one - something new. But the amounts asked are grotesquely over-sized!
In Halflings chapter, one is constantly under pressure to produce Seeds, which happens painfully slowly. No player is going to enjoy just throwing two or three day's production away - and getting nothing back!
2. 'Spend 20 000 Seeds' would perhaps be a more acceptable option!
3. Since the Summer Event, there is a growing sentiment that the game is becoming boring and not fun. Quite a few members of my group have stopped playing, This quest is just plain silly.
4. I understand that the design team needed to slow down the guest races, because players were rushing through a chapter in a few weeks - and then complaining that they were bored and there is nothing to do in the game.
I am reading between the lines that this quest was chosen to slow down the game?
But if that were true - surely it is possible to find a less offensive way to do that that does not force players to waste a precious game resource?
