PMDU Cactus Field Tasks Placeholder

Hey guys!  Long time no post!  ^_^U

So life has once again been trying to kill me, plus I've been experiencing some writer funk ever since my iPad stuff got wiped.  I have been working on the PMDU tasks due today (yikes!), but unfortunately I am very unsatisfied with my resulting chapters and I want to start from scratch on them.  However I really want the rewards for this set of tasks, so here's my summary placeholder till I get myself out of this funk.  Sorry it isn't something more substantial.  

CROSSED LINES:

> General Task 2 + Merit bonus
>> Jewel tends to returning patrollers, while Ray acts as security and even manages to catch an infiltrator.  catching wind of Cassidy's plan, Ray drags Jewel along to lure the bandits out and round them all up (an act they don;t get caught in).  On the way back they stubble across a Sigilyph, which they watch till it departs and leaves behind a Petroglyph Shard.
>> Petroglyph Shard, Volbeam, 3st, +1 merit

> Explorer task 1
>> Jewel works with Bass to negotiate peace with the Gabites, while Ray actually rescues the merchants.  Timely help from Jewel enables Ray to save their merchandise as well.
>> Gritty Grapple, +1 merit

> General Task 1
>> Both Ray and Jewel work as cooks for the event.  Ray makes a traditional yache berry roast, Jewel makes a meat root soup, and together they brew a unique alcoholic tea.
>> Recruitment Slip

ECLIPSE:

> General Task 2 + Strike bonus
>> After finishing their patrol shift Goldie and Haneve are hired by Reuben to guard his wagon.  They end up have to ward off a small band of bandits.
>> Needleduster, 6st

> Hunter Task 1
>> Reuben offers them this job after the successful general task.  Goldie rigs the room to trick Sol and Flint into believing that the room is haunted (scares Flint more than Sol), while Haneve runs interference with the other more loyal Hunter teams.  Goldie secretly leaves one bobby trap for Reuben once the job is done, and the duo gets away without being implicated.
>> Alluring gem
