[edit] Walkthrough
Exit from Tsumei Village, and talk to Hai Len. Go to the door of the house nearest to you and wait for the Kappa to spawn. After killing those, go to the mid-left section of second half (after a lighter soil division) of the first field and wait for the plants to spawn. There are no more pop-ups after this, just one Raging Bull. From the field, go under the bridge and run straight to the pen where Herder Tsiyingju is. Inside, there'll be a Raging Bull in the center. You can attack and kill it before Hai Len even gets there. Jei Zohn will be standing at the windmill to the south; run there and wait.
Note/Bug-ish: If you leave the area immediately after killing the Raging Bull, you will not receive credit for completing the quest, since Hai Len will not approach Jei Zohn, until you're in range. The dialouge will still trigger.
[edit] Dialogue
[edit] Initial dialogue
Hai Len
- "Oh, what an auspicious day this is! I'm in such high spirits that I'm telling anyone who will talk to me. I had my fortune predicted and was told that my success in love will be great! I've got a feeling...today's the day. I'm going to confess my feelings to the girl I love! She lives out in the Panjiang Peninsula, but...even divine luck can't get me there safely. Will you escort me?"
- Accept: "Love? Escort? Sure thing. What's the worst that could happen?"
- Decline: "My fortune advised me to avoid unnecessary travel."
- When asked about quest: "Get your things ready so we can get going. I'll meet you on the Panjiang Peninsula!"
[edit] Intermediate dialogue
- Hai Len: Having company really warms the heart...and the cold feet. Even a blessed fortune isn't enough to still anxious beating of my heart!
- Hai Len: Jei's house is this way. Oh how long I long to see her radiant smile. She has the nicest teeth.
- Hai Len: Jei? Are you home?
- Hai Len: What the...Kappa? Why are there kappa in a house?!
- Hai Len: Well, that was unexpected. But I'll not be deterred. Today is the day! Perhaps a walk through these peaceful fields will calm my nerves.
- Hai Len: Gah! I cut myself on this branch!
- Hai Len: This plant is reacting strangely....
- Hai Len: Argh! What are these...things? Some kind of cursed crop demons!?
- Hai Len: Never fear, friends, that was a coincidence. A bloody, violent coincidence.
- Hai Len: Ahh...this truly is a beautiful day. But nothing is as beautiful as my dear Jei.
- Hai Len: When I saw her eyes, the world dimmed around her. She consumed my sight. My soul.
- Hai Len: Hello Tsingjyu! Your herd is looking very healthy today!
- Hai Len: Good bull! Nice bull? Oh, dear...
- Hai Len: Perhaps today was a poor one to be carrying red festival items. I'm sure the beast was clearly mad. It would have attacked anyone. I just happened to have come along first.
- Hai Len: After all, today is my lucky day! It's fated to be so!
- Hai Len: There she is. I feel so excited I could nearly burst. Jei! Jei, I have something I must tell you!
- Jei Zohn: Yes. And you are...?
- Hai Len: Don't you remember? My name is Hai Len. I've loved you since the moment I saw you! We're fated to be together!
- Jei Zohn: Oh? Oh! Hai, how I have longed to hear those words. The truth is, I've always loved you, too.
- Hai Len: Oh, how a chorus of angels sings in my heart! But even their voices pale in comparison to the sound of hearing you say those words!
- Jei Zohn: It is true. There is something about you, Hai, something that I've always wanted. Please, come closer....
- Hai Len:: Of course my love!
- Hai Len: Wait. Where are you going, my love? And...where's my coin purse?!
- Hai Len: Oh, I truly thought she was the one. Now I'm heartbroken. And just plain...broke!
- Hai Len: Perhaps today was not my lucky day, after all....
[edit] Reward Dialogue
Hai Len
- "That didn't go quite as I imagined. Perhaps there's a lesson to be learned here, friend. Sometimes the only fate we can trust is the one that we forge for ourselves! I appreciate what you've done, so take this as a sign of my gratitude. At lest then someone's day will have a happy ending."

Foes
[edit] Notes
- If you talk to Raging Bull before Hai Len arrives at the pasture area, he will turn into red which you then can attack and kill before Han's arrival.
- The addition of the level five requirement has probably been added to prevent farming of the festival quests, that took place during the 2007 celebration.
- Jei runs into Tsumei Village, after stealing Hai Len's purse.
[edit] Trivia
- The quest title is a reference to the song "Hopeless Romantic", by The Bouncing Souls.
