  • chest (-1966.80 -229.91 1020.49) - not far from hooves under rocks
    
    • This empty chest is very elegantly made. Other clues lead you to believe this area was attacked by horses. There is something really dark about all of this. Someone left their possessions behind in a panic.

• Moors (Trackable)
  
  • a dead brokenskull: (-1317.46, -1059.65, 1352.44) - near bottom right of map lower level, take balloon to brokenskull rock and afk while you travel, if your guild has a void portal it will take you closer.
    
    • This pirate was killed quickly, by elegant blades. Very fine cuts. There are very faint footprints around this corpse. It seems as though the altercation was brief.
  • deep hoof prints: (-1778.35 -1096.87 1564.61) - East by South East of dead brokenskull
    
    • These hoof marks are deep in the sand. These are very large and heavy horses. The tracks appear to be heading east.
  • a newly extinguished fire (-2206.78 -1062.24 812.57) - Island NE of hooves
    
    • This fire has brightly glowing embers. It appears as though someone tried to put it out quickly. Mor large and heavy horse tracks are around the ring.
  • a finely crafted satchel (-2092.20 -1075.55 150.93) - Island north of fire.

  • a slain king manticore (-652.67 9.79 82.85)
    
    • This manticore has very similiar wounds to the pirate you found inthe Moors. Very fine cuts. This was a large, king manticore. Very rare and very dangerous. Not easily slain.
  • fresh footprints (-382.05 -0.13 262.40) - SW not far.
    
    • These tracks are fresh. Very Fresh. You hear horses release unnatural whinnying to the south west.

    • NEED NARRATIVE CHAT QUESTLINE BUGGED AT TIME AND SPAWNED BY DEV. FIX ETA UNKNOWN. PROGRESSION MAY HALT HERE.
  • A torn half of a map (-133.57 -5.25 461.11) Map appears in bag (first item so far clicked to get put in bag, assuming will need for additional quest updates)
    
    • This appears to be half of a very strange looking map. It must have been the golden elf you witnessed fleeing his attackers who dropped this.
• Obolus Frontier - Chancellor Thanial (lower level inner Ny’Caelona)
  
  • Chancellor: Greetings Silvr, the winds blow cooler from the north since we last spoke
    
    
  • Player; Chancellor, are there alot of Cae’Dal out and about in areas behind here in obulus?
    
    
  • Chancellor: Out and about? What do you mean by that?
    
    
  • Player: Say, in the Ferrott?
    
    
  • Chancellor: You have seen my son?
    
    
  • Player: Well, that is why I asked. It seems this person is being chased by what I can only describe as nightmarish riders.
    
    
  • Chancellor: Did this elf wear the green armors or our people?
    
    
  • Player: He did, but it was heavier then almost all of the armor I have seen around here.
    
    
  • Chancellor: It must be Dolas, Did you see anything else?
    
    
  • Player: I found this map, which appears to be torn in half.
    
    
  • Chancellor: I do not recognize the map. Did you see anything else that may have been identifiable? Was he wearing a locket?
    
    
  • Player: I didnt see a locket on him. Honestly, I didnt get a chance to get very close with all the riders attacking his camp. Come to think of it, there was a chest in one of the camps that actually led me to him, it was inscribed in the Cae’Dal language.
    
    
  • Chancellor: Was this chest square with beveled edges and red in color with black accents?
    
    
  • Player: It was
    
    
  • This was indeed the chest that belonged to his mother. Dolas kept the Headpiece of Aerdaerys within it. Along with other very personal items of great importance to him. You say this chest was empty?
    
    
  • Player: It was. What is the Headpiece of Aerdaerys? Loot?
    
    
  • Chancellor: The Headpiece of Aerdaerys is an ancient Elddar staff head, carved of behemite, a rare mineral harvested from the slain corpse of an earthen behemoth. Behemoths were a devastating force on Norrath, battline Veeshan’s first brood during the Age of Scale. The Headpeice of Aerdaerys was magically crafted by Elddar elves within the Age o Monuments. It was taken by the Elddar evles during the Elddar exodus.
    
    
  • Player: Option 1. I take it that you want this headpeice returned to you and your people? Option 2. Well, I will take that as payment for my information and be on my way.
    
    
  • Chancellor: Dolas left here, before the obfuscation was brought down, he took the headpiece with the intent of giving it to the head of the other elves of this land. He believed it would make a powerful gift to show our loyalty and honor.
    
    
  • Player: Okay, so you believe he still has it?
    
    
  • Make no mistake, my son is being pursued for the possession of this very item. I believe this. This item is a very powerful mage item, it can be used to amplify their magics to incredible levels. If you say that my son is being pursued by the iksar riders, then it can only be Drusilla Sathir, and I will lay a healthy wager that it is the Headpiece of Aerdaerys she desires.
    
    
  • Player: Option 1 This sounds more and more like something I want nothing to do with. Option 2. Well, tell me more.
    
    
  • Chancellor: Look, I want my son returned to me I have weath I can offer you if you continue this pursuit…
    
    
  • Player: Option 1. I dont care much about wealth. I will admit, tracked him because I thought there may be treasures. Option 2 I am listening.
    
    
  • Chancellor: You desire armor? Weapons?
    
    
  • Player: Option 1 Well, in my line of work, your only as good as your weapon, so...yes Option 2 weapons are always helpful, Chancellor.
    
    
  • Chancellor: I have knowledge of a weapon of great power. I have information that could lead to its acquisition. Bring my son home and everything I know about its possibilities are yours. I cannot hand you the actual weapon, but I can point you in the correct direction.
    
    
  • Player: Option 1 Well now. This interests me. Option 2 It better be good info, if I am going to all this trouble.
    
    
  • Chancellor: I believe it is, PLAYER. Make no mistake, I can find other treasures to add to the reward. I want my son returned to me. Also, you must be wary of El’yana, Dolas’ sister. She is the captain of my guard and she believes her brother to be dead. She wishes to take my place someday and has no desire for Dolas to return. If she finds out, she may become dangerous.
    
    
  • Player: Okay, so what you are saying is keep quiet about this and that I probably shouldnt return here again without Dolas. Got it.
    
    
  • Chancellor: This is most wise, PLAYER. Most wise.
    
    
  • Player: Option 1 This better be well worth my time. Option 2 Okay, well, I will do my best to return your son to you.
• First Quest - Finding Dolas Level 108 - Reward: The reward for this quest shall reveal itself.
  
  • Description: Looking for treasure, it seems I got myself into something bigger. The golden elf I saw running from those nightmarish riders in the Feerrott was named Dolas. He is the son of Chancellor Thanial Vyllardin, the leader of the elves of Nye’Caelona. He has offered me knowledge of a power planar weapon if I find Dolas and bring him home. I just have to figure out what the situation is with those who are chasing him. Also, he may not even know who ie is…
    
    • I am looking for the elf called Dolas. His father, Chancellor Vylardin, says I should back track to find him.
      
      • I should back track from what I know and search for clues.
        
        • Feerrot. Heavy hoof prints (-576.89, -7.87, 585.79)
          
          • These tracks are identical to the ones you’ve seen both here and in the Moors. Dolas is still being pursued by the nightmarish riders.
        • Hurried hoof prints (-552.78, 4.32, 310.79)
          
          • Dolas is definitely being chased. The hoof prints continue in this direction. These are heavy and deeper than previous ones you have tracked.
        • A dark arrow (-346.04, 9.28, 148.72)
          
          • It looks as though Dolas is being hunted by those nightmarish Riders. This arrow is crude in make. It appears to have shft made of some sort of bone.
        • A strange dagger (-58.37, 13.72, 177.07)
          
          • This dagger is covered in strange runes and rough in its forging. It is definitely not of elven make. Was dolas chased into the portal?
      • I found clues leading to the wizard spire. He could have flow to any one of a hundred place.
    • I am attempting to track this Dolas character. He is quite elusive.
      
      • I need to pick up dolas’ trail again
        
        • Barren Sky a slain aviak (-337, 300, 680)
          
          • This creature was killed quickly. It bears the same precise cuts you witnessed on the corpse of the troll pirate you found in Moors of Ykesha
      • I have to pick up the trail. Dolas has definitely been here.
        
        • A berry stripped bush (-629, 242, -156.41)
          
          • This bush has been picked clean of berries. It looks as if the berries were feverishly ripped from their stems by someone who was starving. Berries strew the ground and many are crushed. There are very light footprints.
      • I should keep trying to track Dolas.
        
        • Flattened earth (548, 300, -685)
          
          • There seems to be a depression in the earth here. You sense someone slept here. Faint footprints are all around. It looks as if someone dug in and slept here overnight simply for warmth.
      • I have found his camp. He has to be around here somewhere close.
        
        
      • I should find and speak to Dolas
        
        • Dolas (532, 308, -647)
          
          • Dolas: You!?!?
            
            
          • Player: Me!?!?
            
            
          • Dolas: I have seen you befroe at the camp in the Feerrott, are you an enemy? Be true, for I am no slouch in battle and I will defend myself
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 I believe you. I am not your enemy. My name is PLAYER. Option 2 Yeah, you’re a slippery little fellow, let me tell you. I am not here to kill you, my name is PLAYER. Option 3 I do not have time for this.
            
            
          • Dolas: Very well, PLAYER. What is it you want? Beware, it is not safe here.
            
            
          • Player: The Riders?
            
            
          • Aye, the Riders of Ik. They pursue me day and night.
            
            
          • Player: Look Dolas, your father, Chancellor Vylardin wants you to come home. So come with me and…
            
            
          • Dolas: Who is Dolas? Chancellor? You are a funny one.
            
            
          • Player Wait? You are still affected by the obfuscation spell, arn’t you?
            
            
          • Dolas: Obfuscation? What are you talking about?
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Oh boy, well this should be fun. Option 2 Just relax for a minute and listen please.
            
            
          • Dolas: Speak!
            
            
          • Player: You are a prince, of Nye’Caelona, your father is Chancellor Thanial Vylardin.
            
            
          • Dolas: Haha, fool I am no prince. I am a simple ranger.
            
            
          • Player: Listen! You are not listening.
            
            
          • Dolas: Very well. I am listening.
            
            
          • Player: You walked through an obfuscation spell that was setup to protect your people.
            
            
          • Dolas: My people?
            
            
          • Player: It wipes most, if not all, your memories of the palce and sometimes people. It appears to be taking alot of time for some people to have the fog clear, so to speak.
            
            
          • Dolas: If I am a price, where is my crown?
            
            
          • Player: Your crown?
            
            
          • Dolas; Yes, my crown. I dont believe any of this.
            
            
          • Player: Look, I saw the chest. I know you have the headpiece of Aerdaerys, the item carved from behemite? This is obviously what the riders are after?
            
            
          • Dolas: How did you know of the diadem? Interesting. When I first picked up the headpiece, I did gain some memories back. I knew of the diadem and iI knew its name. The only way you could have known its name is if there is some truth to what you are saying.It is undoubtedly the headpiece that these riders desire, for I cannot think of another reason.
            
            
          • Player: Now we are getting somewhere.
            
            
          • Dolas: I have an idea. If I am a prince and you are truly a friend of my “father”, bring me my crown. Perhaps I will remember more then.
            
            
          • Player: Okay, well there is a slight problem, I was kind of told not to return without you, due to your sister wanting you dead.
            
            
          • Dolas: I have a sister? Wait, if you cannot bring me the crown then the deal is off. I amleaving here and do not follow me or I swear!
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Calm Down. Fine, I will get you your crown. Option 2. Maybe I can just knock you out and drag you back to Nye’Caelona.
            
            
          • Dolas: Bring me this crown and we will speak. If the riders come, I will have to flee. You may have to track me again, as it seems you are quite the tracker.
            
            
          • Player: Why dont you just tell me where you are going next?
            
            
          • Dolas: Unknown. I must be agile. I will do my best to try and stay in this realm.
            
            
          • Player: Very Well
      • I managed to track down Dolas. He has no memories of his former life. He wants me to bring him his crown to prove that he is who I say he is.
    • I need to return to Nye’Caelona. I’ve been warned not to return there without Dolas. I guess its time to steal his crown and not get caught.
      
      • I should find my way back into the Chancellor’s Throne Room.
        
        • Travel to Nye’Caelona drop mount and invis.
          
          
        • Track and find “a Nye’Caelona custodian. Right click and “pickpocket”.
          
          
        • Find key in bag and “use” to teleport to throne room.
      • I need to find and steal Dolas’ crown
        
        • Inside Throne Room - Invis El’yana Vylardin walking around is aggro
          
          
        • Sneak up to El’Yana and “pickpocket” key
          
          
        • Take the Crown from the Display wait for El’Yana to wander away
          
          • You remove Dolas’ Crown from the case successfully
      • I succesfully managed to steal Dolas’ crown
    • I need to return to Dolas and show him his crown. Hopefully he will remember everything.
      
      • I need to give this crown to Dolas
        
        • Barren Sky (532, 308, -647) Drops of blood
          
          • Looking around it appears that the riders attacked the campsite. There are drops of blood all around this area. Dolas has fled the campsite. He appears to have been wounded.
      • Dolas is no longer here. There is a trail of blood in the sand. I need to find him.
    • Dolas was attacked by the nightmarish riders again and fled. He was definitely wounded in the skirmish.
      
      • I need to pick up on Dolas’ trail again. He appears to be bleeding.
        
        • Bonemire (-834, -437, 360) more blood drops
          
          • It looks as though Dolas has been this way.I should check the area for more clues as to Dolas’ location.
      • I have found some blood. Follow the trail
        
        • A blood smear (199.74, 183.85, -387.10)
          
          • The blood is smeared as thought a foot was dragged through it.
      • Keep following the trail.
        
        • Fresh blood (-97.14, -74.79, -582.1)
          
          • This blood is fresh. Dolas has to be near.
      • Dolas has to be around here somewhere. This blood is fresh
        
        • Dolas (-248.90 -74.10 -594.62)
          
          • Dolas: Careful, PLAYER, try not to get any blood on you.
            
            
          • Player: You’re wounded! The Riders?
            
            
          • Dolas: Indeed, they almost got me this time. I managed to get away, but alas, I am poisoned
            
            
          • Player: Well, first things first. Here is your crown. Take a look, maybe you will remember something important, like how to cure this poison.
            
            
          • Dolas: I… I am, a… prince. My father is the Chancellor.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 That’s right. Option 2 No Kidding, green shoes.
            
            
          • Dolas: Thank you, PLAYER, you have truly brought me enlightenment by accomplishing the ridiculous task I gave you. I am Dolas.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 I am aware. Option 2 It’s very nice to meet you, Dolas
            
            
          • Dolas: My memories of our Cae’Dal medicine also seem to have returned to me.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Excellent, let’s do something about this poison. Option 2 Oh, goody.
            
            
          • Dolas: The poison is of an unknown origin. Deciphering what it is and how to cure would take more time than I am afraid I have left.
            
            
          • Player: Well, that is less than positive information.
            
            
          • Dolas: I have knowledge of what is basically an elven cure all. But the ingredients are very hard to come by.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Do you have a list. Option 2 Hit me Goldy, we dont have all day.
            
            
          • Dolas: I will need blessed mineral water, preferably from a hot spring, purple calendula, an herb that counteracts poisons, desert limestone, this will slow the bleeding so that I don't bleed out, and a arble mortar and pestle in which we will combine the ingredients and form them into a paste that we can place into the wound.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Okay, any ideas where to find this stuff, so we do not run out of time? Option 2 I don't suppose they have all of this at the store there in Nye’Caelona?
            
            
          • Dolas: No. As I said they are very rare. You must rely on your wits, and quickly.

          • Player: Option 1 And you do not. I did. Option 2 I am still looking. Don’t die.
            
            
          • Dolas: Place the mortar and pestles on the ground next to me. Place the items into the vessel, you’ll need this salt and an abrasive. Combine the ingredients for me. I am afraid I haven’t the strength

          • Dolas: Thank you Player, this should take care of the poison and get me back on my feet quickly.
            
            
          • Player: Good to hear.
            
            
          • Dolas: In your absence, I have had many other memories return to me. My mother gave me a locket that was of great personal value. I would ask if you could try to track it down for me, while I heal.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Is it lost? Do I look like an errand runner?
            
            
          • Dolas: I am sorry to say, but I believe the Riders of Ik took it when they confronted me in Sinking sands in their quest for the headpiece. I believe you are powerful enough tand resourceful enough to track them down, find their lair, and perhaps take back my locket, without actually engaging them. After all, you are obviously an amazing scout.
            
            
          • Player:Option 1 Very well, what course do you believe I should take? Option 2 You bet I am.
            
            
          • Dolas: I am not sure. I am confident you would be able to track them. How to follow them is another matter, they dissipate magically at times, or if they think they are being pursued. But I honestly believe, that if I had the locket, the remainder of the memories would come back. Perhaps it could even lead us to end this conflict and get myself home
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Why don’t you just let me take you home now? Option 2 How about I whack you on the ole noggin and drag you back?
            
            
          • Dolas: I doubt my father would be grateful for leading those nightmares back to the city.
            
            
          • Player: So, track a rider and figure out how to follow it back to its lair.
            
            
          • Dolas: Indee, they are many times where they do not ride together, they seem to spread out when convenient
            
            
          • Player: Okay. I am off.
      • I believe Dolas is on the mend. It seems as though it will take some time for the poison to subside.
    • Dolas wants me to retrieve his mother’s locket from one of the riders. He feels that this would help him remember who he is. I am not sure how I will find where they took the locket.
      
      • I need to find and track a rider back to their lair.

          • Foust: Oh boy. You’ll never be able to track one of those riders that way.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 What do you know of it? Option 2 Shut it or I will shut it for you.
            
            
          • Foust: Well, there are many of us that know of the Riders of Ik. They were once at the best of the one called Venril Sathir. From what I have heard, he has been usurped. Which would mean either Rile or Drusilla have their command now.
            
            
          • Player: How could you possibly know all of this? And what are you doing out here hiding in the bushes?
            
            
          • Foust: I know lots. I am knowledgeable in many things. I was to be the Grand Inquisitor.
            
            
          • Player: The grand what?
            
            
          • Foust: The Grand Inquisitor. I worked so hard, made so many sacrifices, tore and disfigured myself in her name.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Her name? You are obviously referring to the return of Lanys. Option 2 Not her favorite cutter anymore?
            
            
          • Foust: Curse you!
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Calm down, grand poobah. Talk. What do you know of the Riders? Option 2 Calm yourself. Tell me of the Riders.
            
            
          • Foust: When that cackling one was made the High Priestess, she chose another. Another over me! The outrage
            
            
          • Player: Cackling one? Look, I don't even want to know. Also I am pretty much done with you. So…
            
            
          • Foust: I can give you a spell, one that you can place a magical unshakeable leash onto one of the Riders. It will allow you to be pulled behind them when they dissipate. Take you to their place of origin, it would.
            
            
          • Player: Let me guess, you want something in return.
            
            
          • Foust: I want the Grand Inquisitor dead.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 Fine, let’s take him out. I don't have all day. Option 2 I do not have any reason to kill this Grand Inquisitor.
            
            
          • Foust: He has killed many innocents. He has sacrificed on the Altar of Malice, many of this realm. He is a murderer and a villain. Who would miss him>
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 This is kind of pot meet kettle isnt it? Option 2 I already agreed. Let’s do this.
            
            
          • Foust: You cannot just waltz into the Ossuary of Bone and assassinate the Grand Inquisitor. He is guarded by the elite of our order. You will need a disguise. A disguise which only I have the knowledge to make.
            
            
          • Player: Let me guess, it won't be easy to make.
            
            
          • Foust: No, it won't. Not t be undetectable and get you into his chamber without being destroyed. The golems that guard him would lay waste to you no matter what numbers you brought. You must get past them. Disable them from the inside, then you can take my revenge!
            
            
          • Player: Okay, how do we do that?
            
            
          • Foust: First things first. You will need knowledge of your most infamous deed.
            
            
          • Player: Option 1 My what? Option 2 That’s easy enough.
            
            
          • Foust: This will take some searching. Leave me and return when you have knowledge and possession of what I require.
            
            
          • Player: You're going to need to give me way more.
            
            
          • Foust: I cannot, for this to work, it is something you need to find on your own. Without my assistance. Your “infamous deed”. Your “black spot”. Only then will the undetectable visage adhere to your very soul, being enough to accomplish the task.
            
            
          • Player: Very well.
        • Inquisitor Foust seems to know how I can track a rider.
      • I need to seek out my black spot

          • Foust: The High priestess has left to take up more important dees. These are not my kind, they are lesser than me. His is not a world where we simply ask someone to move aside. They will tear your throat out the second you are seen. They will consume your flesh, without a sorrow. They will use your eyes.

          • Player: Where do I find one of those?
            
            
          • Foust: There is one somewhere amongst the Ghorkaal dark elves I believe. They use it for all sorts of nasty little spells.

          • Player: Option 1 I’ve no intent of ever dealing with you again, Foust. Pray I don't decide to come back and pay you a visit. Now...Give..me..the..spell. Option 2 I think not. Give me what we bargained for.
            
            
          • Foust: Very well, as agreed. You must have sight of the Rider. Cast it upon them and make certain they do not see you. Let the spell do the rest.
            
            
          • Player: If this doesn’t work, Foust. I will be back.
