// NivalisQuest_BlueSage STRUCTURE
//  FIELD 1:
//      INVESTIGATION
//      1 - STBY OUTSIDE
//      2 - ACCESS GRANTED
//      3 - QUEST ASSIGNED BY PEETU - talk to Oskari (and others)
//      4 - Oskari is OK with peetu, but wanna hear from others. He also sends you
//          to ask what Peetu happened
//      5 - Adultered ingredients seems the cause, report to Elias
//      6 - Elias is now worried about a visitor. Ask people about and report.
//      7 - If everyone found the visitor, confirm Elias the worries
//      8 - Elias sent you to Oskari to inform the issue. Blue Sage probably knew all along.
//      8/9 WARNING: will not advance unless everyone thinks Peetu is good.
//      9 - Oskari accepts the cause. Tells to report Peetu that it probably was
//          a saboutage, to check if the Silk Cocoon really was there.
//      10 - Peetu confirmed the saboutage. Report to Blue Sage.
//      11 - Blue Sage accepted the evidence, and explains about other sages issues.
//          It's not known who or what is behind this. He excuses for making you waste
//          your time. He asks you to return to him later, as he needs to write letters.
//      12 - QUEST COMPLETE - You collected your reward
//          Also picked up a letter for Frostia Mayor, about the incident (Main Story).
