Arnold Mays has asked you to recover his lost goods from Titan's Well and the Towering Steppes.
I've invested in a number of deadly-yet-profitable activities in Stonefield. Consequently, several of my employees have had their contracts terminated 'in the field,' so to speak. If you recover whatever goods they were carrying, I'd happily pay you in their stead.
Oh, you've found them! Yes, this is my satchel! And my pick, I thought I'd lost you!
Well done, [%NAME].
If you're still looking for the goods dropped by my former employees, you'll want to search the Towering Steppes and Titan's Well areas.

Ben Felsted has asked you to kill the creatures pouring out of the death rift in the Eye of Regulos.
I'm afraid I have much to ask of you, [%NAME]. With your Shade Talisman, you have the ability to survive exposure to the Eye of Regulos. That makes you the spearhead of our assault.
The foul beasts pouring out of that rift must be stopped!
Well done, [%NAME]. The creatures of the rift cannot be allowed to spread their contagion.

Alvarend Fergos in Camp Fergos has asked you to travel southeast to Titan's Well. Find the bodies of the dead researchers and use the Manifestron to summon and question their ghosts.
Ancient Ethians used Keystones to control planar gates. We believe the Dredgepond - a nearby tribe of sobek - possess such a gem, but our research team was slaughtered. When you find their bodies, use this Manifestron as it will briefly reveal their spirits so you may question them.
So, it's as we thought! From your conversations with the ghosts in Titan's Well, the Dredgepond sobeks possess a Keystone. We need that gem if we're to gain mastery over the titans.
Have you spoken to the ghosts of our three researchers? We need to know what they know!

Use the Keystone on the remains of a Fall Walker in the Granite Falls pond to deplete the gem's energy. Kill the resultant Energized Fall Walker to dissipate its power.
According to my research, the nearby Fall Walkers create a vacuum when they die, sucking in any nearby energy. If enough is captured, the Fall Walker is reborn, but the energy source is depleted. This should dissipate the Keystone's magic for good.
It is done then. By destroying the Keystone, you have rid the world of a terrible source of evil. It was important enough for my beloved Arthur to sacrifice his life. Though few will know of his sacrifices, or of yours, I know, and I thank you.
Use the Keystone on the corpse of a Fall Walker to deplete the crystal's magical energy. Be ready to face the Energized Fall Walker that will be born from this process.

Ralynn Laurel has asked that you kill the trolls and Aelfwar in the Trollblight Caverns east of Lotham's Strike.
The Aelfwar have show some control over the trolls in the Trollblight Caverns. We cannot allow them to add such a powerful weapon to their arsenal. Seek out the caverns and lay waste to any trolls or Aelwar you find.
With the trolls and Aelfwar felled our work in this region will be much easier. Many thanks, Ascended.

Laria wants you to travel west to Millrush Pond and collect Athana's Shard from the chest deep in the underwater cave at the bottom of the pond.
Since you reawakened my memories, I began to explore this wood again, so changed by the rifts. In my wanderings, I found a memento of my past, a keepsake of my mother's. Someone hid it in Millrush Pond, and I am still too weak to recover it.
Athana's Shard... So many times I watched my mother use this in rituals to commune with the forest. Holding this again fills me with a strength I feared was gone forever.
At the bottom of the pond is a cave, within which is the chest holding the artifact. Be careful, as the cave is crawling with vile siltreavers.

Sergeant Seful of the Runeguard should be very interested in the Dwarven Runestone you found. Find him along the road in Hammerknell Pass.
Sergeant Seful and the Runeguard will be interested to learn of the Abyssal cultists' and Azure Blades' dealings in dwarven lore and artifacts. You should bring this to his attention, as well as hand over the priceless Dwarven Runestone you hold in your pack.
By stopping the sale of this Dwarven Runestone between the Abyssal and the Azure Blade, you've done the dwarven people a great service. Who knows to what evil purpose those cultists would have used this relic?
Have my thanks and this token of gratitude.

You've shown your worth around here, [%NAME], especially with that last prey you bagged for us. Every once in a while we get 'special' requests from anonymous collectors and the like wanting some strange trinket or hide for their collection. I just so happen to have one of those special jobs right now, actually.
Normally I reserve these for my judges, but you're an Ascended. Interested?
My client is already out with the taxidermist gathering the Granitewood Crossing Undead corpses. Excellent work!

Agent Gerid Kalos has asked you to go to the Demon Steps south of Riverfell and destroy Endless Court undead. Report to Kristan Stern at Crimson Wash when you are done.
The Endless Court is intent upon shattering the Ward that holds Regulos at bay, [%NAME]. This must not be allowed to happen. We must slow their mining and military operations as best we can. Given our resources at this point, guerrilla tactics will work best.
I heard from Agent Gerid Kalos about how you slaughtered the undead in Demon Steps. This will certainly hinder the efforts of the Endless Court. In time, our precision strikes will completely dismantle their mining operations here in Scarlet Gorge.
I think you have arrived here early. Travel to the Demon Steps and destroy the living dead.

You've done a hero's work, [%NAME]. With Haratotek and Agastem dead, the Stormbrood must give up on summoning the Emberlord. Now we can focus on wiping those scalebellies off the face of Telara.

The Golden Maw cultists are consumed by the desire for worldly possessions and wealth. Their false goddess, Laethys, promises them everything their greedy little hearts' desire, in exchange for their loyalty. All the gold in the world will not save their souls when the Vigil comes to judge them in death. The time of judgment has arrived, [%NAME].
I wish that you didn't have to kill them, [%NAME], but they were beyond saving. They were dead the moment they accepted Hazeed's offer of service, the moment they traded a goodly life for a shot at material gain.

For a long time we thought that this ancient desert would be safe from any further disturbance by those accursed Wanton as long as our order stood guard over it. It seems we were wrong. We will have to force them out once again by staining the sands with their blood.
Hopefully that will drive them back for good, but I fear I will be sending you out there again all too soon, [%NAME].

This is it, [%NAME]! I think I have finally figured out a way to repel magic from the Death Plane. This Death Shield is made from the materials you have brought me, in addition to other reagents. Would you like the honor of testing it out?
What just happened there? Did death energy get through the shield and corrupt that villager?
Obviously, the ritual isn't perfect yet. I'll return to my studies and see if I can figure out what went wrong.
Make sure you're within the camp when you activate the shield. Death creatures shouldn't be able to get close while it's active, but if something goes wrong, we may want these soldiers around.

Destroy Abyssal Focusers in Hammerknell Fortress after killing the Wavelashers and Torrents operating the devices. Afterward, destroy Brenin's Prototype and confront Tidelord Brenin.
It all makes sense now. The shattered vessels, the runebinding rituals, the Abyssal's pursuit of death magic - Tidelord Brenin is creating runebound machines to breach Hammerknell!
Quartermaster Balint forged the hammers you took from the Grey Gardens into a Runeguard Hammer. Use it to destroy the machines, then confront the Tidelord.
What?! Tidelord Brenin had control of Gorvaht? It is astounding that Brenin mastered death to the point where he could compel a demon as powerful as Gorvaht. You are a true hero for destroying that beast. Gorvaht had plagued us for a century.
But what concerns me is this new creature, Estrode. She possessed Tidelord Brenin and ran off toward Stonekey Court?

Kaspar Massi wants you to collect Death Infused Flora from Blightweald, northeast of Timberveil, so he can study the effects of death energy.
To defend against the corruption of death, we must understand the taint it left upon this land. The black grove known as Blightweald still pulses with death energy, and undead still walk amongst the burnt trees. Bring me some plant samples from this place.
Take a look at the dark rings on the inside of these roots. This large one is likely the initial burst of death energy permeating the soil, from when the Ward first fractured. A second ring occurred shortly thereafter, perhaps a more localized blast of death energy. How very interesting.
We need to learn all that we can about death magic and its effect upon the world. Acquire some plant samples from Blightweald and return them to me.

You were right to bring these Construct Parts to me, [%NAME]. Whoever is responsible for their creation has the ability to tap into planar energies on a level I have yet to witness. By sanctifying these metals, we demonstrate our conviction of cleansing evil from Iron Pine Peak, which will also gain us favor with the Icewatch.
You are correct, [%NAME] - I sense the same powerful evil aura. There is a strong malevolent force behind the creation of these constructs that goes beyond what even the most powerful mages could produce. Please, bring me additional pieces so that I can cleanse this evil and hopefully discern its origin.

Destroying the GX-5 Excavators and RH-0 Lifters crippled the Golden Maw's mining capacity. A few more strikes like this, and we'll be able to drive the worshippers of Laethys out of Scarlet Gorge. Maybe then, we'll all be able to get out of this dustbowl.
