Ackster delegated tasks to his party members, Willow, and Tenrick. Before they could do anything, they had to figure out where The Hero was, if there was anything else going on, and where they could find another Seed of Calamity. And they had to do it all without The Hero or anyone else noticing their actions.
Ackster wasn't sure about entrusting such a critical task to others. But he didn't have much of a choice. This decision was a necessity. What he had found in the Creator's inheritance didn't give him much of a choice. If he wanted to save the world and establish a peaceful life afterward, he needed the Forest of Eternity.
He needed a bunch of other things, too, but they would be easier to get under control since he already had connections with a lot of places.
Ackster was a little worried since some of his party members weren't the most subtle. But, as much as it worried him, the world would be busy with something else.
