These steps must be completed without leaving The Park. After two minutes, the quest will reset and the player will have to complete the quest again if they wish to access the shop again.

Magical Water Bucket to extinguish the fire in the cabin. The water must be placed directly onto the fire. - Right-click either Furnace to the right of the Melancholic Viking with a Raw Fish. This will consume the fish, and make the Furnace become active.

Dialogue[]
| Primary Condition | Guaranteed Dialogue |
|---|---|
| None | [NPC] Viking: I last saw the sea XX years, XX months ago. [NPC] Viking: I wish I could remember what it felt like! [NPC] Viking: Sadly, my memory is my worst enemy. [NPC] Viking: Please, help me remember the sea! |
Putting out Fire with  Magical Water Bucket
|
[NPC] Viking: YES! [NPC] Viking: Now that you poured an infinite amount of water, [NPC] Viking: I can remember the smell of salt and the beauty of the waves. [NPC] Viking: If only I could recall the smell of a tasty supper with my old warband. |
Putting out Fire with  Water Bucket
|
You pour water from the bucket, but it's apparently never enough to extinguish the fireplace. [NPC] Viking: That's just... not enough water. |
| Holding Magical Water Bucket
|
[NPC] Viking: There's as much water here as an ocean. [NPC] Viking: If only you could pour it somewhere! |
| Before Cooking a Fish | [NPC] Viking: I would like to smell a good feast! |
| Holding any Raw Fish | [NPC] Viking: I prefer when the fishes are lively and go splish-splash in the water! |
| Holding any Cooked Fish | [NPC] Viking: *takes a bite* [NPC] Viking: It definitely... *chomp* tastes good... [NPC] Viking: But the smell isn't quite right! |
| Cooking a Fish | [NPC] Viking: MMMMMMmmmMMMMH [NPC] Viking: Smells so nice! |
| After Cooking a Fish | [NPC] Viking: You know what I really remember from the sea? [NPC] Viking: Fishes splish-splashing around! |
| Starting to Splash | [NPC] Viking: YES! This totally reminds me of the sea! [NPC] Viking: Although... there were more fishes back then. |
| Splashing More | [NPC] Viking: EXCELLENT! Just a few more fishes and splashes please! |
| Enough Splashes | [NPC] Viking: WOW! This feels just like on my Drakkar! [NPC] Viking: I suddenly feel so great! [NPC] Viking: Thanks for bringing joy to an old viking! [NPC] Viking: Take a look at my wares! (Interact with the NPC) |
| Splashing Without Cooking a Fish or Put out Fire | [NPC] Viking: Wow! Nice move! There just isn't the ambience to fully appreciate it. |
| Cooking a Trophy Fish | [NPC] Viking: Ooh! That looks exotic! [NPC] Viking: It wasn't quite what I was looking for, but I'll take it thanks! |
Holding  Ice or  Packed Ice
|
[NPC] Viking: Don't you have some liquid water? |
Holding any  Fishing Rod
|
[NPC] Viking: It's a nice thought, but I don't feel like fishing right now. |
Holding any  Boat
|
[NPC] Viking: Wow! [NPC] Viking: A boat! [NPC] Viking: Throw them at people you hate! |
Trivia[]
- Interacting with the Furnace with a Trophy Fish for the first time grants the "Meal fit for a King" Achievement.
- The "Throw them at people you hate!" line when interacting with a boat is a reference to people used to be able to throw boats at others to fill their inventory to troll or sabotage them at the Dark Auction.
- The Viking's "I last saw the sea # years, # months ago." line changes with the month and points to September of 2009.
- The significance of this is currently unknown, but it is speculated that it could be a reference to when creepers were added to Minecraft. When questioned about this topic, then-admin Dctr responded with "Who knows".
- Once all steps have been completed, lightning will rain down from the sky, and the Viking will become the Joyful Viking. The shop will be available for 2 minutes.
