Welcome to my Guide of the Legendary Super Trout Chain released on December 17, 2009, the same day that the Area of the Tideage City opened to us all as we all went to try on new characters (Remember how laggy it was in Dragonfang that day? Good times, huh?)

- NOTE: Even if this note does not pop-up, check your "Find Quests" tab to see if this quest is avaliable or not, if it is, take it.
Note: Many players have experienced that they cannot get the pop-up, and thus not the quest. I can tell you now that this pop-up comes up whenever it wants to, and if this pop-up does not show up, forget about trying to start the chain. So patiently wait until it eventually comes up. This may be a potential bug, I have no idea and it's up to the GMs.

- Continue onto the Quest "Heartbroken"
A Special Note in Blue: To all of you level 55~ out there, don't try to be a hero, unless you did Coming-of-Age: Loyalty (MP), you must do this outside a squad and you cannot have a squad inside either. During that one minute that Goshiki charges in the battlefield, like all flesh and blood NPCs, Goshiki have limited HP, Goshiki is Doomed to Die, so if you see his HP go low, don't try to go in and save him, it's a burn on your HP and MP, you have a way bigger fight after that one-minute dialogue, use this time to meditate. Also, don't be foolish and do AoE, in fact, if you are not at the spiritual phase transcendent (ie. level 59 or above), don't even bother to attempt this (except venos, but you'll have a really hard time).
Yet another friendly note in Blue: A bug has occured (thanks to pand0ra) that shows that when your timer fails, it goes in negative time, you cannot trash the quest! Here's a heads up, don't bother trashing it, relogging will help, if it does not, if you are still in the vampire's domain, die and sacrifice some exp, a quest will trigger and it reads "For What?" This pop up will bring you back to the entrance of Nirvana and override the timer, should you be outside nirvana and cannot enter back in, relog, if it doesn't work, wait it out.
A third friendly note in Blue: Jakarus pointed out that the Blood Combat can be done before 59 for wizards, since the undead SOLDIERS use a water attack and undead OFFICERS use a fire attack, wizards can alternate pyroshell and glacial embrace to have an easier time.

WARNING: TWO THINGS THAT ARCANE ARMORS SHOULD BEWARE OF:
1. With the Attack Rate Increase, the attack speed of deadeyes become randomly faster, it can go from a slight bit faster to about three rocks a second, to all level 70- Arcane Armors, if you got like six rocks hurled at you before ironheart or morning dew could even take effect, it really hurts.
2. Deadeyes are aggresive! And they have a 80% chance of respawning right behind you, regardless of where you are around that area, the best thing to do to avoid ending up fighting two or more deadeyes at once is to try and not kite them, clerics should use more ironhearts to make a stand to fight, and venos just stay still while arcane wiz pack up on some HP pots.

It appears Emerald Moon wants to kill us all by sending us on this errand, you now may squad for this beast while you could not before (Thanks to Venue), his attack can finish off a level 70 Arcane Cleric in 3 - 4 shots, even though his long range is a magic attack. Even though that he is no longer a solo-only beast, you can still experience somewhat a bit of a difficulty trying to bring him down, as his fish hides are nearly impenetrable to attackers, it is generally a long haul and you probably have to give up a charm (HP and MP or one, class dependant) to kill him. Good luck.
P.S: Dibs to PWI for making this boss the final fight of this amazing quest chain
- Give the Chrono Core to Dizzy (491, 890)

THE END OF THE LEGENDARY GOSHIKI QUEST CHAIN
================================================== ===========================
Afterwords:
Men, take a long sigh, your long haul is finally over and you are free to go do your own thing, I can tell you that you will find yourself being a super-powered freak from this quest chain, though through all the good things you've done, there is 0 rep in this quest chain but it's all worth it, you'll get a lot of levels in short time, you'll find your total coins to be near the million, your spirit enough to learn nearly all the skills, and near 70 mirages, 10 refining aids, and a Platinum HP Charm to top it all off. It is a overall enjoyable quest chain, Dizzy is holding the Chrono Core in her arms and remembering her most treasured memories with her heroic lover Goshiki, Emerald Moon was free to live her life remembering Ormin but not to see him, Ormin is a widely known friend to all Tideborns, especially the Elder... And the Elder is happy to have you finishing the Coming-of-Age and you becoming his most trusted warrior and friend.
You may choose to make your weapon into a super-powered destruction machine if you wish, but what can I say? I've never seen the Cube of Fate LAG before...
I give a special thanks to everyone who supported me in this quest chain, espeically ProGrinder, he led me to finish this early and helped me finish almost everything after the Quest "Blood Combat", another thanks to all my pals in Harshlands who have been by my side and supported me and helped me through this, there are a lot that I could list but it takes literally a long space ^_^
So in the end, a special congratulations to all of you for finishing the longest, richest, most romantic quest chain ever!
Regards,
Da Gale Force (Pledge)
================================================== ===========================
- QUEST CHAIN STORY PLOTLINE -
WARNING: SPOILERS
Part One: The Coming-of-Age Ceremony
Meet yourself, a random class journeying from place to places, suddenly a flash appears and you hit level 40, the Elder of your race informs you that a strange stele has appeared in Dreamweaver Port and you are to go and investigate.
At the stele, the voice of our main NPC, Goshiki interrupts you, he tells you that this stele is a Tideborn property, the Tideborns have shattered the barriers in between realms, and finally revealed themselves to the Perfect World after thousands of years. You and Goshiki soon become good friends, and you agree to take Goshiki on a tour throughout Perfect World.
At Etherblade, Goshiki feels dry already and wishes to go take a bath, on top of the Etherblade Lake many humans witnessed his transformation into a fish and dived into the water, including our second character, a human girl (supposedly BM, even though her armour says otherwise) was dazzled at the sight of Goshiki's transformation into a fish, and forgot to ride her sword and fell off of the sky onto the Etherblade shore.
You go check if the girl is okay, but the girl named Dizzy was really angry and said that you must pay her back with a level 16 wep, coins, or a wraith officer badge. You say that you don't have any of those, Dizzy scoffed at the response, and instead offered to join your party to "keep an eye of both of you".
Bringing Goshiki and Dizzy you traveled to Lost City and the City of the Plume, finally at the Capital Archosaur, it was there that a mail arrived for you.
At the nearest postbox, you found out that it was from the Elder of the legendary Tideage City (City of the Raging Tides), the Elder tells you that a friend, Ormin, was lost. You set out to find Ormin, and succeeded to find him all the way in Angler's Village.
Ormin tells you that Goshiki should be able to partake in the ceremony for all Tideborns, known as the Coming-of-Age ceremony, you then bring Goshiki and Dizzy to Tideage City, the Elder assigned you seven tasks for the Coming-of-Age ceremony, and left you to do them all.
Part Two: The Blood Combat
After finishing all Seven Coming-of-Age ceremonies, the Elder congratulates you, and then sends you off to celebrate with your old friend Dizzy, who have returned to the Etherblade Shore, the place where she first fell off. Dizzy says that she had failed Coming-of-Age: Willpower and felt really bad, she wishes to have all seven of your medals, to encourage her to become a hero.
Soon Dizzy blurts out to you that she misses her hometown, and you reply that Goshiki is just as homesick as her. Remembering Goshiki, Dizzy realized that she really likes him, and wants you to go tell him just that.
Goshiki, after reaching his Coming-of-Age, has went back to the Mysterious Stele to prepare to go back to the Tideage City, you go and tell him that Dizzy loves him, Goshiki replied warmly and tells you to go tell the Elder of Tideage City that Goshiki will be late coming home, since he wants to escort Dizzy back home and let those two spend some time together. Goshiki went off to find Dizzy and started bonding with each other, while you went to tell the Elder.
You soon realize that the Elder have something in mind since the moment you finished all Seven Coming-of-Age quests, he tells you that he wants to send you off for some errands, including saving the City of Abominations and go dig up some Power Crystals in the White Sand Beach.
The Elder explains to you that the Power Crystals are vital to keep the Tideage City running, he sends you off to put the crystals in some power devices to see its power, and sure enough, you powered up the Tideage City, you return to the Elder in awe of the Crystal's power, it was then that the Elder revealed to you the thing that have been troubling him - The crystals are diminishing.
He tells you that the shipment for crystals have not yet arrived, and sends you off to try and find them.
Our old friend, the Ladywraith in Orchid Temple tells you that she have last seen some Tideborns traveling north, and something about fighting undeads, worried for the army, you quickly arrive at the scene of battle, and finds the explorers outnumbered, you attempt to save the Vice Admiral, but he died anyway, out of fury, you avenged him by killing the General of the undead army: General Feng.
It was a tough fight, but in the end you reported to the Elder all about it, the Elder thinks that this is an emergency, the undeads are attacking the Tideborns and it is not a good sign, he sends you off to tell Goshiki that.
The wildly in love Goshiki heard this news and was instantly snapped back to Earth, he tells you in great anger he wishes to avenge the fallen Tideborn warriors, you helped him prepare.
Prior to his leave to the Battlefield, he tells you to report to the Elder about this act, and he repeated in great caution to not tell Dizzy about it, since he knows that Dizzy will worry about him and won't let him go.
You tell the Elder about this attack, however, you feel that despite what Goshiki said, letting Dizzy know is what you must do.
Dizzy heard this and got worried sick within two seconds, and tells you to go forth and protect Goshiki with your life.
On the battlefield, Goshiki was enraged at the battle and led an army to charge, he was soon surrounded and killed, despite the efforts you put in to try and rescue him, with his last breath, he tells you to give his final gift to Dizzy, and left his Final Words to tell Dizzy and he loves her.
You were reluctant to tell Dizzy about it, but since you were teleported out right next to her, you appear to have no choice. Dizzy was immediately heartbroken, and cried every last teardrop out, you handed her Goshiki's final gift - A Lochmur doll with her face crafted on the head of the doll, Dizzy became greatly emotional at his Final Gift and ordered you to leave her alone.
You have no idea what to do, so you went back to the Elder for some advice. The Elder of Tideage tells you that he grieves for Goshiki's Death, however he have a grave matter happening, he saw Dizzy crying so much that he saw Dizzy attempting suicide to apparently join Goshiki in the afterlife, you quickly go to snap her back, but she was content to commit suicide, unwilling to let the last of your two new friends die as well, you inform the Elder about it, he tells you that the good old friend Ormin may have the power to console Dizzy and make her feel better.
Willing to do anything to save Dizzy, you go to find Ormin, Ormin gave Dizzy the Goddess's Tear to help her feel better, and tells you that he wants a favor from you, the Lethe Potion, it is said to cure heartbreaks, and the Aged Deity in Wellspring, his old friend, may know what to do.
The Deity tells you that she can make such a potion, she sends you off to gather two ingredients: Hexecelot Deadeye's Eyes, and the Lethe Flowers, when the potion was completed, you gave it to Ormin, thinking that he will use it to cure Dizzy, however, he drank it for himself and thanked you.
This act did not escape Dizzy, she tells you that Ormin have troubles with his life as well, that's why he wanted the potion, but now she wants one too and sends you off to find Ormin and get a potion.
Ormin, upon hearing Dizzy's request, merely laughed and said that this Lethe Potion is not for Dizzy's to drink, the Lethe Potion, if drank by someone with a heart, will cause great heartaches and will lead to death, he then confesses to you that he is a wretch... A heartless wretch.
Puzzled, you go ask the Elder of Tideage City about Ormin. The Elder seem reluctant to tell you about this, he only tells you that he is surprised that Ormin actually lived this long, to save the Elder's friend Ormin, he tells you that the Tideborn Traitor have stolen a raw crystal and you went to get it back.
Part Three: Lost and Sealed Memories
Meet Emerald Moon, she is a mermaid that lost her memory, after the return of the Raw Crystal you saw her and went to meet her without the Elder telling you, and she tells you that she will reward you, if you can find her memory.
You found her Memory buried somewhere around the Lochmur Indy, the instant she recovered her memory, she fell extremely sick, worried, you went to the Elder for Advice, he then finally tells you that Ormin was a traveler of the Tideborn, he was the first to see a Tideborn and became the widely known friend of all Tideborns, he loved Emerald Moon and she loved him back, one day, Emerald Moon fell sick, Ormin asked the Elder what to do, the Elder then said that he can cure Emerald Moon if Ormin can let the Elder have his heart, and use it to cure Emerald Moon, however, after this Emerald Moon will lose all of her memory, and if she sees Ormin again, she will die and so will Ormin.
After this deal, Ormin then sailed back to his Human World and lived in the Anglers' Village... Without a Heart, after you retrieved Emerald Moon's memories, she then fell sick to the same disease, this time without a heart to cure her.
After the Elder explained all this to you, he claims that there is an alternative, and it involves Dizzy.
Dizzy now have Possession of the Goddess's Tear, it can cure any memories' corruption, you traveled to Etherblade without delay and told Dizzy about Ormin and Emerald Moon.
Dizzy was deeply touched from this story, she then realized that Goshiki wouldn't want her to cry all day, Goshiki wants the best for her. She then picked herself up and happily gave you the Tear.
Emerald Moon soon recovered, and with great thankfulness, she tells you that she wishes to repay Dizzy kindly. There is a legendary item called the Chrono Core, it is said to seal a happy memory, Emerald Moon wishes to give this to Dizzy, so that she will always remember Goshiki and her happy time together, and so will Emerald Moon remember her happy time with Ormin.
To make this story a happy ending, you went to fight off the Lochmur Guardian Beast, it was an extremely tough fight. However, in the end you have managed to Triumph, and you kindly offered the Chrono Core to Dizzy.
Dizzy thanked you deeply, and gladly offered you a really high-amounted HP Charm as reward.

- Continue onto the Quest "Heartbroken"
A Special Note in Blue: To all of you level 55~ out there, don't try to be a hero, unless you did Coming-of-Age: Loyalty (MP), you must do this outside a squad and you cannot have a squad inside either. During that one minute that Goshiki charges in the battlefield, like all flesh and blood NPCs, Goshiki have limited HP, Goshiki is Doomed to Die, so if you see his HP go low, don't try to go in and save him, it's a burn on your HP and MP, you have a way bigger fight after that one-minute dialogue, use this time to meditate. Also, don't be foolish and do AoE, in fact, if you are not at the spiritual phase transcendent (ie. level 59 or above), don't even bother to attempt this (except venos, but you'll have a really hard time).
Yet another friendly note in Blue: A bug has occured (thanks to pand0ra) that shows that when your timer fails, it goes in negative time, you cannot trash the quest! Here's a heads up, don't bother trashing it, relogging will help, if it does not, if you are still in the vampire's domain, die and sacrifice some exp, a quest will trigger and it reads "For What?" This pop up will bring you back to the entrance of Nirvana and override the timer, should you be outside nirvana and cannot enter back in, relog, if it doesn't work, wait it out.
A third friendly note in Blue: Jakarus pointed out that the Blood Combat can be done before 59 for wizards, since the undead SOLDIERS use a water attack and undead OFFICERS use a fire attack, wizards can alternate pyroshell and glacial embrace to have an easier time.

WARNING: TWO THINGS THAT ARCANE ARMORS SHOULD BEWARE OF:
1. With the Attack Rate Increase, the attack speed of deadeyes become randomly faster, it can go from a slight bit faster to about three rocks a second, to all level 70- Arcane Armors, if you got like six rocks hurled at you before ironheart or morning dew could even take effect, it really hurts.
2. Deadeyes are aggresive! And they have a 80% chance of respawning right behind you, regardless of where you are around that area, the best thing to do to avoid ending up fighting two or more deadeyes at once is to try and not kite them, clerics should use more ironhearts to make a stand to fight, and venos just stay still while arcane wiz pack up on some HP pots.

It appears Emerald Moon wants to kill us all by sending us on this errand, you now may squad for this beast while you could not before (Thanks to Venue), his attack can finish off a level 70 Arcane Cleric in 3 - 4 shots, even though his long range is a magic attack. Even though that he is no longer a solo-only beast, you can still experience somewhat a bit of a difficulty trying to bring him down, as his fish hides are nearly impenetrable to attackers, it is generally a long haul and you probably have to give up a charm (HP and MP or one, class dependant) to kill him. Good luck.
P.S: Dibs to PWI for making this boss the final fight of this amazing quest chain
- Give the Chrono Core to Dizzy (491, 890)

- QUEST CHAIN STORY PLOTLINE -
WARNING: SPOILERS
Part One: The Coming-of-Age Ceremony
Meet yourself, a random class journeying from place to places, suddenly a flash appears and you hit level 40, the Elder of your race informs you that a strange stele has appeared in Dreamweaver Port and you are to go and investigate.
At the stele, the voice of our main NPC, Goshiki interrupts you, he tells you that this stele is a Tideborn property, the Tideborns have shattered the barriers in between realms, and finally revealed themselves to the Perfect World after thousands of years. You and Goshiki soon become good friends, and you agree to take Goshiki on a tour throughout Perfect World.
At Etherblade, Goshiki feels dry already and wishes to go take a bath, on top of the Etherblade Lake many humans witnessed his transformation into a fish and dived into the water, including our second character, a human girl (supposedly BM, even though her armour says otherwise) was dazzled at the sight of Goshiki's transformation into a fish, and forgot to ride her sword and fell off of the sky onto the Etherblade shore.
You go check if the girl is okay, but the girl named Dizzy was really angry and said that you must pay her back with a level 16 wep, coins, or a wraith officer badge. You say that you don't have any of those, Dizzy scoffed at the response, and instead offered to join your party to "keep an eye of both of you".
Bringing Goshiki and Dizzy you traveled to Lost City and the City of the Plume, finally at the Capital Archosaur, it was there that a mail arrived for you.
At the nearest postbox, you found out that it was from the Elder of the legendary Tideage City (City of the Raging Tides), the Elder tells you that a friend, Ormin, was lost. You set out to find Ormin, and succeeded to find him all the way in Angler's Village.
Ormin tells you that Goshiki should be able to partake in the ceremony for all Tideborns, known as the Coming-of-Age ceremony, you then bring Goshiki and Dizzy to Tideage City, the Elder assigned you seven tasks for the Coming-of-Age ceremony, and left you to do them all.
Part Two: The Blood Combat
After finishing all Seven Coming-of-Age ceremonies, the Elder congratulates you, and then sends you off to celebrate with your old friend Dizzy, who have returned to the Etherblade Shore, the place where she first fell off. Dizzy says that she had failed Coming-of-Age: Willpower and felt really bad, she wishes to have all seven of your medals, to encourage her to become a hero.
Soon Dizzy blurts out to you that she misses her hometown, and you reply that Goshiki is just as homesick as her. Remembering Goshiki, Dizzy realized that she really likes him, and wants you to go tell him just that.
Goshiki, after reaching his Coming-of-Age, has went back to the Mysterious Stele to prepare to go back to the Tideage City, you go and tell him that Dizzy loves him, Goshiki replied warmly and tells you to go tell the Elder of Tideage City that Goshiki will be late coming home, since he wants to escort Dizzy back home and let those two spend some time together. Goshiki went off to find Dizzy and started bonding with each other, while you went to tell the Elder.
You soon realize that the Elder have something in mind since the moment you finished all Seven Coming-of-Age quests, he tells you that he wants to send you off for some errands, including saving the City of Abominations and go dig up some Power Crystals in the White Sand Beach.
The Elder explains to you that the Power Crystals are vital to keep the Tideage City running, he sends you off to put the crystals in some power devices to see its power, and sure enough, you powered up the Tideage City, you return to the Elder in awe of the Crystal's power, it was then that the Elder revealed to you the thing that have been troubling him - The crystals are diminishing.
He tells you that the shipment for crystals have not yet arrived, and sends you off to try and find them.
Our old friend, the Ladywraith in Orchid Temple tells you that she have last seen some Tideborns traveling north, and something about fighting undeads, worried for the army, you quickly arrive at the scene of battle, and finds the explorers outnumbered, you attempt to save the Vice Admiral, but he died anyway, out of fury, you avenged him by killing the General of the undead army: General Feng.
It was a tough fight, but in the end you reported to the Elder all about it, the Elder thinks that this is an emergency, the undeads are attacking the Tideborns and it is not a good sign, he sends you off to tell Goshiki that.
The wildly in love Goshiki heard this news and was instantly snapped back to Earth, he tells you in great anger he wishes to avenge the fallen Tideborn warriors, you helped him prepare.
Prior to his leave to the Battlefield, he tells you to report to the Elder about this act, and he repeated in great caution to not tell Dizzy about it, since he knows that Dizzy will worry about him and won't let him go.
You tell the Elder about this attack, however, you feel that despite what Goshiki said, letting Dizzy know is what you must do.
Dizzy heard this and got worried sick within two seconds, and tells you to go forth and protect Goshiki with your life.
On the battlefield, Goshiki was enraged at the battle and led an army to charge, he was soon surrounded and killed, despite the efforts you put in to try and rescue him, with his last breath, he tells you to give his final gift to Dizzy, and left his Final Words to tell Dizzy and he loves her.
You were reluctant to tell Dizzy about it, but since you were teleported out right next to her, you appear to have no choice. Dizzy was immediately heartbroken, and cried every last teardrop out, you handed her Goshiki's final gift - A Lochmur doll with her face crafted on the head of the doll, Dizzy became greatly emotional at his Final Gift and ordered you to leave her alone.
You have no idea what to do, so you went back to the Elder for some advice. The Elder of Tideage tells you that he grieves for Goshiki's Death, however he have a grave matter happening, he saw Dizzy crying so much that he saw Dizzy attempting suicide to apparently join Goshiki in the afterlife, you quickly go to snap her back, but she was content to commit suicide, unwilling to let the last of your two new friends die as well, you inform the Elder about it, he tells you that the good old friend Ormin may have the power to console Dizzy and make her feel better.
Willing to do anything to save Dizzy, you go to find Ormin, Ormin gave Dizzy the Goddess's Tear to help her feel better, and tells you that he wants a favor from you, the Lethe Potion, it is said to cure heartbreaks, and the Aged Deity in Wellspring, his old friend, may know what to do.
The Deity tells you that she can make such a potion, she sends you off to gather two ingredients: Hexecelot Deadeye's Eyes, and the Lethe Flowers, when the potion was completed, you gave it to Ormin, thinking that he will use it to cure Dizzy, however, he drank it for himself and thanked you.
This act did not escape Dizzy, she tells you that Ormin have troubles with his life as well, that's why he wanted the potion, but now she wants one too and sends you off to find Ormin and get a potion.
Ormin, upon hearing Dizzy's request, merely laughed and said that this Lethe Potion is not for Dizzy's to drink, the Lethe Potion, if drank by someone with a heart, will cause great heartaches and will lead to death, he then confesses to you that he is a wretch... A heartless wretch.
Puzzled, you go ask the Elder of Tideage City about Ormin. The Elder seem reluctant to tell you about this, he only tells you that he is surprised that Ormin actually lived this long, to save the Elder's friend Ormin, he tells you that the Tideborn Traitor have stolen a raw crystal and you went to get it back.
Part Three: Lost and Sealed Memories
Meet Emerald Moon, she is a mermaid that lost her memory, after the return of the Raw Crystal you saw her and went to meet her without the Elder telling you, and she tells you that she will reward you, if you can find her memory.
You found her Memory buried somewhere around the Lochmur Indy, the instant she recovered her memory, she fell extremely sick, worried, you went to the Elder for Advice, he then finally tells you that Ormin was a traveler of the Tideborn, he was the first to see a Tideborn and became the widely known friend of all Tideborns, he loved Emerald Moon and she loved him back, one day, Emerald Moon fell sick, Ormin asked the Elder what to do, the Elder then said that he can cure Emerald Moon if Ormin can let the Elder have his heart, and use it to cure Emerald Moon, however, after this Emerald Moon will lose all of her memory, and if she sees Ormin again, she will die and so will Ormin.
After this deal, Ormin then sailed back to his Human World and lived in the Anglers' Village... Without a Heart, after you retrieved Emerald Moon's memories, she then fell sick to the same disease, this time without a heart to cure her.
After the Elder explained all this to you, he claims that there is an alternative, and it involves Dizzy.
Dizzy now have Possession of the Goddess's Tear, it can cure any memories' corruption, you traveled to Etherblade without delay and told Dizzy about Ormin and Emerald Moon.
Dizzy was deeply touched from this story, she then realized that Goshiki wouldn't want her to cry all day, Goshiki wants the best for her. She then picked herself up and happily gave you the Tear.
Emerald Moon soon recovered, and with great thankfulness, she tells you that she wishes to repay Dizzy kindly. There is a legendary item called the Chrono Core, it is said to seal a happy memory, Emerald Moon wishes to give this to Dizzy, so that she will always remember Goshiki and her happy time together, and so will Emerald Moon remember her happy time with Ormin.
To make this story a happy ending, you went to fight off the Lochmur Guardian Beast, it was an extremely tough fight. However, in the end you have managed to Triumph, and you kindly offered the Chrono Core to Dizzy.
Dizzy thanked you deeply, and gladly offered you a really high-amounted HP Charm as reward.
