Quest text from Therapist

Hello, mercenary. Are you interested in a little part-time work? It's not a difficult task, but it's quite lucrative. Don't forget, you can get both food and drink from me, as well as expert medical care. But first, let's talk about the job.

I require three emergency medical kits. They're called Salewa - the red western ones. I need you to obtain them yourself, not buy them off someone else. Just to prove that we're serious about this. We may know each other, but not enough for me to trust you yet. Are you up for the job?
