Give Lamond what he seeks

Lamond is known as a frequent guest of the Geyser Hamlet. He initiates a conversation as you approach the hot spring and hints that he's in need of more Newt Liqueur. If you have the item with you, you can give him 1 immediately, or choose the "Accept" dialogue option to start the quest. Each time you give him a Newt Liqueur, he becomes more candid with you. For the first instance, he will give you a Rotten Soft-Boiled Egg.

Bring Lamond more Newt Liqueur

NOTE: For non-beastrens or humans, you need to equip the Beastren Mask so you can freely move at the tavern. You can buy it from Ibrahim the forger at the Checkpoint Rest Town.

You can get Newt Liqueur from Higgs of Higgs's Tavern Stand in Bakbattahl. As a Beastren, you can freely enter the tavern, otherwise, you need to acquire the Beastren Mask, or buy it from Ibrahim at the Checkpoint Rest Town. Equip the mask and travel to Bakbattahl and locate Higgs's Tavern Stand. Outside the tavern, you will find some satchels on the other side of the fence. Pick up the satchels and carry it to the other side of the fence and then Higgs will invite you in.

You can buy Newt Liqueur for 5000 G from Higgs, and once you have it, return to Lamond at Geyser Hamlet. After 3 instances of giving these to Lamond, he will give you the Vocation: Warfarer. Then, talk to him again (you don't need to give him more Newt Liqueur) he will give you the Grandmaster's Path, a tome that lets you learn Rearmament. This final conversation with Lamond will mark The Sotted Sage as completed.
