Skill Credit / Ebon Spine Harpoon Quest
IMPORTANT NOTE: There
is currently a rumor that if you complete this quest you will be unable to
enter the Queen's dungeon and kill the Olthoi Queen. This is not the
case.
--The Spectre
The Story So Far...
The Aun and the Hea
Tumeroks are at war. An Aun Tumerok named Ralirea the poacher is
killing Hea Arantah's Sable Gromnies. Your job - Stop Ralirea!
Step 0: Preparation
Go to the Rea Village,
located on the Western side of Marae Lassel. Talk to Hea Arantah at
47.1N 90.3W.
Young Arantah looks annoyed - which seems to be his natural state.
Hea Arantah tells you, "What? Can't you see I'm busy? I have many responsibilities here!"
Hea Arantah tells you, "That Aun hunter, for one. What's his name?"
Arantah belches loudly as Nyrinua calls over, "Ralirea, my Tah."
Hea Arantah tells you, "Ralirea, yes. Don't CORRECT me, Nyri."
Hea Arantah tells you, "Anyway, this old Aun dustongue - Ralirea - poaches the gromnies of my plateau! If someone would kill him, and bring me that figurine he wears within a day as proof..."
Step 1: Get up on
the plateau
I still don't have all the details here, so if you do
complete this quest before I finish it all up, please send me an email
with more detailed instructions.
You will need to go to Redspire, and head north to the
cliffs. There is a skull in the side of the cliff and a
portal. Jump into the portal to get to the Aun Village. There
you will find a person who will transport you up to the to of the plateau
Step 2: Kill Ralirea the Poacher
UPDATE (11 November): Aun
Ralirea spawns randomly atop the
Marescent Plateau. There are several items you will get when you
kill her. The Clay Figurine, Ebon Spine Harpoons (the faster you
kill her the more you get) and an Ebon Spine Harpoon (not to be confused
with the harpoons, which are thrown
weapons.)
|

|
Clay Figurine
|
|
A small clay totem of a female Tumerok,
suspended from a rawhide necklace, taken from the neck of the Aun
hunter Ralirea. The base is inscribed "Mirakah." |

Ebon Spine Harpoons
|
|
A
lightweight harpoon made from the spine of an ebon gromnie
found on the Marescent Plateau of Marae Lassel, and bound
in bands of coldly glittering chorizite. This
example can be used as a spear. It was crafted with
fine balance by the famed Tumerok
hunter Ralirea, of the Aun Xuta, and rewards a talented
user. The hunters of the Aun often use these weapons in
hunting and fishing. |

Step 3: Return to Hea Arantah
Once you kill Ralirea, head back to the Hea town and give
the idol to Hea Arantah
Hea Arantah tells you,
"You're Ravlen! They told me what you did - you killed that poacher
Ralirea! Give me his figurine. Quickly, quickly!"
You give Hea Arantah Clay Figurine.
Hea Arantah tells you, "Wow, great! Ha ha! I warned them not to send
their hunters on to my plateau!"
Young Arantah clutches his fist around the
little figurine, so tightly the veins in his wrist stand in relief. His
eyes flash violet, and after a muffled crunch, clay dust begins to trickle
through his fingers. He looks up at you and grins boyishly.
Hea Arantah tells you, "That was a trick my friends taught me, way
back when I was driven from Timaru. I could do the same to your head, you
know."
Hea Arantah tells you, "I'm kidding! You've been a friend the Hea,
and I reward my friends. Here..."
Arantah places his hand on your forehead and
his eyes glow blue-white. You feel... enlightened...
You have gained a skill point!
