I don't recall being offered this; is it small enough to ignore in one's inventory?

When you complete the quest then your reward window pops up and the two rewards offered are the beetle and exp. They both are awarded so its really no choice.

To see if you have completed it properly go to your achievements then to Events then Holiday and it should be the second one listed. Right after New Year/Frostbeard.

The graphic looks like an orange beetle shell or caprice i your inventory. Use the find key and he is listed as "Doomsday Beetle"

I shrouded to lvl 10 to get this quest.

Group quest, requires 3 people to obtain.

You say, 'Hail, Kilna Odenburgh'
Kilna Odenburgh smiles at you hopefully, "Can you feel that? It's the winds of change a blowin'! A New Year always brings with it many changes, and many [promises] made to change."

You say, 'promises'
Kilna Odenburgh motions toward her husband Garuf with a heavy sigh, "I can't get this old lug to help out with anything! I promised myself I'd get our farm in tip-top shape this year, but I can't convince Garuf to do anything unless it involves [ale]."

You say, 'ale'
Kilna Odenburgh throws her arms up in the air dramatically, "All he does is sleep, drink, and belch! I keep telling him, 'The New Year is a perfect time to make some much needed [changes] in your daily habits', but he just keeps his face buried in the ale."

You say, 'changes'
Kilna Odenburgh brightens up as an idea pops into her head. "I don't suppose you'd like to stop by our little farm and [help] Garuf make some much needed changes? He's become an expert when it comes to ignoring me, but I'm sure he'll listen to an outsider's perspective. Come to think of it, there are plenty of people in our village who could use a little aid with their New Year's resolutions."

You say, 'help'
Kilna Odenburgh grins wryly, "With your help, we'll have Garuf sober and the farm cleaned up in no time! Let me know when you're [ready] to go, and I'll give you directions to our quaint village."
You have been assigned the task 'Time for a Change'.

You say, 'ready'
Kilna Odenburgh says 'Safe travels!'

I'm told this is the result of a frostfell quest called "Time for a Change" given by Kilna Odenburgh near bazaar zone line.
