== Ship Quest ==
'''Portoga''' is a [[List of Kingdoms in Dragon Quest|kingdom]] and a castle town found in {{Dragon Quest III}}.
Portoga is where the hero receives a [[Ship | ship]].  However, in order to receive the ship, the hero's party must first retrieve some [[Black Pepper]] for the king of Portoga.  Black Pepper is only available in [[Baharata]].  In order to reach Baharata the king gives the hero a letter to [[Norton the Hobbit]], which enables the hero to travel east.

Portoga is ruled by a King [[Portogus Rex]] who has a particular fondness for the fiery flavor of [[black pepper]]. Black pepper is a rarity in the West, however, and it is said to grow in the East; the kingdom has attempted eastern expeditions for more pepper, and many have died in the attempts due to the ferocious monsters.
 
When the {{Hero 3}} arrived in Portoga looking for a [[ship]], the King promised to award them his flagship in exchange for black pepper. He gives the Hero the [[Royal Missive|Royal Missive]], to present to [[Nordy the Dwarf]] and gain passage through [[Nordy's Grotto|the mountain chain's tunnel]]. When the {{Hero 3}} returns with the black pepper, he honors his promise and gives them his ship. Afterwards, it is mentioned that Portoga has established trade routes with the eastern countries.
 
Portoga is also home to the ill-fated lovers [[Carlos and Sabrina]], who have been cursed by [[Baramos]]. The Archfiend has made it so that during the day Carlos takes the form of a horse and at night Sabrina becomes a cat, preventing the lovers from ever uniting purely for the sake of spreading misery. Fortunately their curse will be lifted once Baramos is killed, and Sabrina will give the Hero a [[siren sword]] in gratitude.

==Trivia==
*The value that the King places on common pepper is based on the history of the plant in the middle ages, when it had become very difficult to acquire after the fall of the Roman empire and the collapse of the empire's trade routes to India. Pepper had become a luxury item due to it's strong flavor and rarity, and demand increased to the point that in 1498 the Portuguese had sailed around the African continent to establish a new trade route with India and bypass the trade which was monopolised by Venetians and Arab merchants.

Portoga is ruled by a King Portogus Rex who has a particular fondness for the fiery flavor of black pepper. Black pepper is a rarity in the West, however, and it is said to grow in the East; the kingdom has attempted eastern expeditions for more pepper, and many have died in the attempts due to the ferocious monsters.

When the Hero arrived in Portoga looking for a ship, the King promised to award them his flagship in exchange for black pepper. He gives the Hero the Royal Missive, to present to Nordy the Dwarf and gain passage through the mountain chain's tunnel. When the Hero returns with the black pepper, he honors his promise and gives them his ship. Afterwards, it is mentioned that Portoga has established trade routes with the eastern countries.

Portoga is also home to the ill-fated lovers Carlos and Sabrina, who have been cursed by Baramos. The Archfiend has made it so that during the day Carlos takes the form of a horse and at night Sabrina becomes a cat, preventing the lovers from ever uniting purely for the sake of spreading misery. Fortunately their curse will be lifted once Baramos is killed, and Sabrina will give the Hero a siren sword in gratitude.

TriviaEdit

  • The value that the King places on common pepper is based on the history of the plant in the middle ages, when it had become very difficult to acquire after the fall of the Roman empire and the collapse of the empire's trade routes to India. Pepper had become a luxury item due to it's strong flavor and rarity, and demand increased to the point that in 1498 the Portuguese had sailed around the African continent to establish a new trade route with India and bypass the trade which was monopolised by Venetians and Arab merchants.
