North Freeport Quests

Say: “hail”

Greetings, shaman. Tell me, do you follow [Justice], [War], [Honor], [Fear], or [Hate]?

Say: “i follow justice”

Ah, it does me much good to meet with one who holds respect and reverence for the spirits. [Trust] that your place in the whole is important. Rather than trying to enslave and command others with the powers the gods grant you, you live in harmony and balance with the world around you. There are times when we, the [true spirits] and those like you, can work together to achieve goals. Individuals who help us are known as [Heyokah].

Say: “i follow fear”

You would be best served by speaking to my brother in the next room,

Say: “i follow war”

You would be best served by speaking to my brother in the next room,

Say: “i follow hate”

You would be best served by speaking to my brother in the next room,

Say: “i follow honor”

Ah, it does me much good to meet with one who holds respect and reverence for the spirits. [Trust] that your place in the whole is important. Rather than trying to enslave and command others with the powers the gods grant you, you live in harmony and balance with the world around you. There are times when we, the [true spirits] and those like you, can work together to achieve goals. Individuals who help us are known as [Heyokah].

Say: “trust”

Trust is the glue of the universe. When one trusts others to do their part, it allows them to focus on what they must do themselves. The trust that others have in us also gives us the confidence to do our parts effectively, thus maintaining harmony. When one becomes dissatisfied with his part and pursues his own desires, this is called greed. And greed destroys the glue of the universe. This is why we wished the bandits under the grass.

Say: “true spirits”

As a shaman, spirits are known to you. They aid you if you pay them homage and respect the world around you. They also will bend to your will if you are powerful enough. We are a part of the entire universe and we exist because people believe and feel us. However [very few] know us in this form. To mortals we are but ideas, [wisps of consciousness] in an expanse of emptiness and as difficult to grasp as breath in Everfrost.

Say: “very few”

There are only a handful of mortals we've judged worthy to be friends and, reluctantly, masters. We call them the [Heyokah]. Bondl is one of them and he helps to test those we believe might be able to grasp our existence. There are many troubles that threaten us and our home. We seek those with the wisdom, patience, and might to help us ensure the health of the cosmos. Whether you seek balance or personal power, this is important to you.

Say: “wisps of consciousness”

It is difficult for mortals to grasp what we are for we are not material that can be held or consumed. We are the spirit that drives beings to do what beings do. The wolf lives to run and hunt. When you ask for his aid, his spirit enters your body and you 'become' wolf. The ox is the personification of endurance and when he enters your body, you do not become an ox, you become all that is ox. I myself am the spirit of understanding.

Say: “heyokah”

The Heyokah are our mortal counterparts. Some are our friends who seek to help us in whatever goals we deem important. Some seek nothing more than to enslave and command us to do their bidding. We accept this and often make deals with those we realize are powerful enough to accomplish what needs to be done. To judge such individuals, we have prepared a test. We ask that before we enter into these contracts, the shaman walk the [path of the Heyokah]. We see you may be worthy. Will you walk the path? You will be rewarded for your efforts, albeit grudgingly.

Say: “i will walk the path”

That is good. You will need to walk three paths before you can reach that of the Heyokah. The paths of patience, wisdom, and might. First, you must learn patience. Take this gem and go on a pilgrimage to an island in the great water the wasichu call Erud's Crossing. The Kerrans there are our allies and can show you to our next contact, Ooglyn. Give Ooglyn the gem and do what she asks. As you walk the path, remember what you've learned about trust.

Say: “hail”

That looks like an interesting set of beads you have around your hand

Say: “camlend”

Camlend from Qeynos?

Say: “yes”

I see, I see. Well what brings you and those beads here to Freeport

Say: “gem”

I might know of such a gem that would fit inside one of those sockets. A knight in the palace watches it over it. You're welcome to use it if it's for a good cause. Are you [

Say: “others”

Very well, I know it's only one gem but head to the high elf city. I've heard many jewels come from there and you might be able to find some of use for your cause.

Say: “trades”

I thought you might be one who was interested in the various different trades, but which one would suit you? Ahh, alas, it would be better to let you decide for yourself, perhaps you would even like to master them all! That would be quite a feat. Well, lets not get ahead of ourselves, here, take this book. When you have finished reading it, ask me for the [second book], and I shall give it to you. Inside them you will find the most basic recipes for each trade. These recipes are typically used as a base for more advanced crafting, for instance, if you wished to be a smith, one would need to find some ore and smelt it into something usable. Good luck!

Say: “second book”

Here is the second volume of the book you requested, may it serve you well!

Say: “Soulbinder Grunson sent me”

You mean Geadin. Caskin's eyes lose their focus for a moment as he appears to be reminiscing. Geadin was a good friend of mine but I haven't seen him in ten years, not since his [

Say: “problems”

Caskin was a great man. Yes, I know he went down the wrong path eventually, but he saved a lot of people. He helped form the Soulbinders and, ironically enough, helped to write the rules that they now live by. Unfortunately he wasn't strong enough to live by those rules. His was a drive for success, for achievement, and that was his undoing. His [

Say: “research”

Geadin Gyths was, in many ways, a pioneer of soul binding. His research helped to allow the soulbinders to operate, but he went too far. He was expelled from the soulbinders for using some of those that came to him for simple binding as experiment victims, sometimes pulling their souls from their bodis (on accidents he claims) and binding them to a series of gems that he kept on hand. The order of Soulbinders managed to recover those gems and the lost souls and removed Geadin from their ranks. Something that happened at that time, perhaps even something that the Soulbinders did to him, drove him [

Say: “mad”

He ran off and I haven't heard from him in more than ten years. So you can see why the Soulbinders don't want to talk about him. There's nothing to fear from them, they have one of the most grueling screening processes I've ever heard of. I guess Geadin helped them in that way too. I don't know why you seek Geadin or his type of magic, you don't seem like the sort that would be interested in that sort of thing. I will warn you about my friend Geadin. He is very smart and very insane. If you can help him, I'd be grateful, but keep in mind that he doesn't see people as anything more than a tool. Good luck in finding him.

Say: “hail”

May the Truthbringer guide your path. I am Celsar Vestagon, upholder of the faith and cleric of Mithaniel Marr. Did you come to see the [minnows of marr]?

Say: “minnows of marr”

The Marr Minnow is unique to the Hall of Truth. It is a beautiful fish. Unfortunately, recently, reports of piranha have been heard. Due to greater concerns, I must look for assistance from noble clerics who wish to help Marr and [eradicate the piranha].

Say: “piranha”

Yes. You are new to the word of Marr. Go to the waters surrounding the Hall of Truth. Fill this sack with no fewer than four dead piranha. You'd best keep well fed. I do not want you to eat the fish before you fill the sack and combine it. May Marr be with you.

Say: “hail”

Greetings and well met

Say: “training”

I have developed a training program for all young and upcoming Paladins of Marr. My tests will enable you to learn some basic hunting, navigating and armor crafting skills. All of these abilities will be very important on your path to enlightenment. If you are [ready to begin my tests] I will explain to you how the tests will work.

Say: “ready to begin your tests”

Very well

Say: “recipe”

Once you have crafted your material from the specific recipes I give you, you will need the appropriate mold as I mentioned before. I can present you with the recipe and mold for Truthbringers [Helm], [Bracers], [Armguards], [Boots], [Greaves], [Gauntlets] and [Breastplate]. When you are ready to being collecting the components for a material recipe simply tell me what piece you [want] to craft.

Say: “helm”

I would strongly suggest a good helm as you can see by my patch over my eye I was not so careful in my younger days. To create your helm material you will need to combine 2 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Young Kodiak Paw, 1 Ruined Cat Pelt and 1 Hops in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Helm.

Say: “gauntlet”

Sooner or later you will take a tough blow to your hands. Being struck there without the right gauntlets could mean a very serious and painful injury. To create your gauntlet material you will need to combine 3 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Giant Spider Egg Sack, 1 Ruined Bear Pelt, and 1 Armadillo Tail in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Gauntlets.

Say: “greave”

I can't begin to tell you how important pants are

Say: “armguard”

A good set of armguards will keep your arms safe from any attacks you may face while in training. It is a common tactic to go for ones arms because with them disabled it becomes impossible to defend yourself. To create your armguards material you will need to combine 2 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 2 Black Bear Paws, and 1 Short Beer in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Armguards.

Say: “bracer”

I have seen many paladins go without the proper wrist protection and the result was never good. To create your bracer material you will need to combine 1 Brick of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Orc Prayer Beads and 1 Red Wine in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Bracer.

Say: “breastplate”

Any paladins most important armor piece is always their breastplate. Should you succeed in crafting it your Truthbringer Breastplate will guard your upper body from any serious attacks that would otherwise be quite devasting. To create your breastplate material you will need to combine 5 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Young Plains Cat Scalp, 1 Young Puma Skin, 1 Water Flask, 1 Deathfist Orc Skull and 1 Giant Fire Beetle Carapace in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Breastplate. After you have completed your breastplate come back to see me for I have one [final test] for you.

Say: “boot”

Boots are a wise armor choice because you never know what you will have to walk across and knowing your feet are protected is one less thing to worry about. To create your boot material you will need to combine 3 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Lion Mane and 2 Wolf Meats in your assembly kit. Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Truthbringers Boots.

Say: “final test”

Well for quite sometime the Freeport Militia has become more and more corrupt. They have been known to do any dastardly deed you can imagine which includes harming and sometimes killing followers of Marr. There is a group of Militia Soldiers in the commonlands that have been recently harassing a good friend of mine. His name is Pardor and he is a shopkeeper in the commonlands. As if it wasn�t dangerous enough in the commonlands he know has these Militia soldiers demanding he pay them a tax that does not exist. Will you travel to the commonlands to kill one of these militia soldiers? I fear for my friend's life.

Say: “hail”

Welcome to the Hall of Truth! May the will of Mithaniel Marr guide you through life. We are glad to see that you have an interest in our ways. Please speak with any of my priests or knights and they shall help you find your faith.

Say: “militia”

The Freeport Militia is nothing more than a ragtag band of mercenaries and convicts. They act as the guards of this troubled city. Be well aware that they are not the honorable guards you may think they are. They are commanded by Sir Lucan D'Lere, the self-proclaimed ruler of Freeport. We of the Hall of Truth shall set this city free from the grip of the Militia one day. It is our duty as Knights of Truth.

Say: “hail”

Ah, your spirit shines brightly. Should I know you?

Say: “shaman”

Ah, yes. You are not only a shaman, but one who has passed the tests of the heyokah. There are many problems that face us now and I grow weaker by the day. If you feel you are ready to bear a great burden and help all of those like us, including the immortals that charge our essence and consciousness, say [

Say: “hail”

Should you choose to continue your journey, tell me that you are [

Say: “hail”

It appears you are not yet ready for the great tasks that I require to be done. There are others lesser than me that can guide you and prepare you to walk a greater path should you choose. You should seek them out. You can perhaps seek knowledge from your elders and peers.

Say: “it is so”

To have you here, believing in us and our existence does give me warmth, but my length of time here and others like me may be at an end. The spirits are troubled and a darkness washes through our existence that we seem helpless to prevent. That is why I talk to you now -- to help us. Without the help of mortals, we may [

Say: “blow away”

You have heard of the darkness in Taelosia that came from another place. You may have even seen the world that is overshadowed by the dark influence of Discord. That seeping ill that is not touchable by claw or paw has wormed its way into the [

Say: “streams of the spirit world”

Yes, it is true. I feel myself fading more with each turn of time. You are familiar with the ways of herbs and potions and you can aid me, should you [

Say: “find the will”

Very well. You will not find this an easy task. There are several things you must do and other heyokah you must find that have helped us in the past. Where there is glitter upon the setting of Ro, you will find an agent of the spirits. In the deep waters where the megalodon is said to hunt, there is another. And where the wonders of nature rise in the dark, another ally awaits. Look for light in the denseness of entwined shadows. One will greet you with all you have learned. She is doing research in a bustling labyrinth of creatures and can educate you where I cannot. Tell them all of me and they will give you audience

Say: “wasichu”

The wasichu are those that turn their backs on serving the spirit world for its own sake. They hunger for their wn power. At greater risk now are the spirits of Wisdom and Patience. They have become weakened and their fading is eroding what you as shaman often rely upon. The Spirit of Might has lost its way altogether and has crossed over into the darkness of Discord in that other realm. It has veen mobing amongst the [

Say: “dark creatures”

We must prepare a [

Say: “ritual”

The ritual we need to perform is an ancient one, called Ruchu, and it will require a lot of preparation and planning on our parts. To begin with, we need to call upon our allies for help. One thing we need is spirit talismans. In times past, the spirits bestowed very powerful talismans upon a few, but [

Say: “great heyokah”

One of them was a [

Say: “hail”

Aye, hello there, friend! How are ye on this fine day? A beautiful day to be alive, I must say! Anyway, I just got into Freeport last month. Wow, is this city big! Way bigger than humble little Rivervale. That's where I'm from. I'm working on setting up my own little business here, Falia's Foot Combs and Footwear, it'll be called. But, I don't have anything to sell yet, so check back in a couple of weeks. Safe travels to ye, friend.

Say: “hail”

Come to find out about the Wayfarers Brotherhood, hm? I think I saw you around here long ago. Because you are familiar to me, I will trust you with some [

Say: “information”

The Wayfarers Brotherhood is pretty particular about who they do business with. You will need to prove yourself to them. You can start gaining their gratitude by helping them. The Wayfarers Brotherhood will ask you to answer some questions when you first meet with them. They tend to call all of their assignments 'adventures.' You'd do well to keep that in mind as they'll be more likely to give you some tasks. There is other information that makes them easier to [

Say: “deal with”

There are several camps of Wayfarers Brotherhood explorers around the world. In each camp you'll find a trusted Wayfarers Brotherhood member that has the task of recruiting adventurers that will take on interesting, and potentially lethal, [

Say: “work”

The Wayfarers Brotherhood believes in giving something for something. For each adventure you take from them, they will add you to their Favor Journal. With the points of Favor that their record keepers have counted for you, you can trade your good Favor for wonderful treasures and goods. Also, the more adventures you do for the Wayfarers Brotherhood, the more your Favor increases. The harder jobs get you more Favor, by the way. As you gain more Favor, the Wayfarers Brotherhood treasure keepers will let you peek at some of their more unique and sought after items. So, it pays to get in good with them, you see! And there's [

Say: “more”

You should also know that there are five magi in the Wayfarers Brotherhood that have found very unique magic stones in the world that they are able to use to transport adventurers to one another. They have placed a magus with one of these stones at each large camp. They call it Farstone Magic. And that's not the only [

Say: “interesting ore”

We've found some strange items off the dead in the dungeons. At first we just thought they were simple things -- rocks, pebbles, gems, and the like -- and then we noticed they had very unusual auras about them. Well, one day, Morden Rasp was toying with one -- a shiny green shard -- and he went to scrape it with his dagger. Suddenly, the shard began to reform and fused with his dagger. While the dagger remained as fine as ever, Morden himself felt a surge of strength! So, you will want to watch out for these strange magic pieces in the world. Now, I suggest you go talk to Selephra Giztral, Barstre Songweaver, Vual Stoutest, Teria Grinntli, or Ruanya Windleaf. They handle all of those who are interested in working for the Wayfarers Brotherhood and getting rewards. Remember well what I've told you!

You show a great deal of courage in coming here to speak with me at such a young age. I'm afraid you are not yet ready to pursue work with the Wayfarers Brotherhood.Come back when you have more experience and we will talk again.

Say: “hail”

May the passion of Erollisi Marr grow strong within your soul. We here in this Temple of Marr serve those who serve teh wills of Mithaniel and Erollisi Marr. If you require healing or curing, just let us know.

Say: “healing”

It is not my duty to see to the wounded. You must seek out Plur Etinu. He is in here somewhere.

Say: “hail”

Greetings, adventurer! Certainly a person who looks as hardened as yourself deserves a fine blade to match your prowess. Here at Groflah's Forge, we supply you with only the finest quality weapons.

Say: “ariska zimel”

Zimel!! I do not know who you mean. Now go away. I am very busy. I will not talk here!!

Say: “hail”

Please, let me go. I shall leave the [Freeport Militia]. I did not know they were such a vile group.

Say: “freeport militia”

I thought they were nothing more than the local militia. Little did I know they were so vile. Now I am stuck [here] and I ask for your forgiveness.

Say: “why are you here”

I came here to escape the militia and ask [Merko to forgive] me.

Say: “merko to forgive”

I had a small encounter with his wife, my aunt. She was quite red after that altercation. I guess I upset her in a great way, somehow. Could you please go ask Merko to forgive [Willia]. I shall wait here for his answer.

Say: “hail”

Hello. I am afraid I am in no mood to talk right now, friend. I am in a lot of [trouble] right now.

Say: “trouble”

am afraid there is nothing you can do to help me, but if you really want to know, I will tell you my [story].

Say: “story”

I was tasked by Shin Master Grubbus of Gukta to travel here to Freeport and receive a gift from the Paladins of Marr. It was a holy ring blessed by Marr and a token of friendship between the Frogloks and the human paladins. It was of course an honor to be selected to perform such a task. I accepted the generous gift and made my way back home to Gukta. As I entered South Ro however that is when things [went terribly wrong].

Say: “went terribly wrong”

As I entered the desert under the cover of night, a thick mist swirled about me and I could not see but a couple feet in front of me. A horrible hiss broke through the fog and the horrible visage of a ghoul darted towards me. I quickly took up my sword and dispatched the beast with little effort. Then a dreadful moaning from somewhere in the desert started. Soon it was joined by another monstrous moan, then another until I was completely surrounded by the terrible sound. The mist parted and a dark, robed figure appeared. He uttered something and hands began to erupt from the sand. Soon I was surrounded by a host of undead. They clawed and tore at me as I attempted to keep them at bay. The necromancer looked into my eyes and began chanting. His words filled me with dread. I dropped the ring and ran all the way back here. Not once stopping. I am a complete coward. I have let down my people and my God. I am sure I will be exiled for this. I doubt there is anything you can do to [help] me.

Say: “help”

No disrespect intended towards you friend, but I have little faith you can find the ring. However, if you wish to look for yourself, you may want to go to South Ro and see what you can find. There is also another problem. I remember the undead in the desert tearing out some of the gems as they clawed at me. Perhaps the undead still carry some of the gems. Please see if you can find three missing gems in addition to the ring. They should be easy to identify. They were specially crafted by Gukta's finest jewelers. They are a deep red in color and bear the mark of The Truthbringer. You might want to search South Ro and the Oasis for them. When you have found the ring and the three gems, please hand them to me.

Say: “hail”

The Temple of Marr welcomes you. I am Gygus Remnara. High Sentinel for the Sentries of Passion. We are the order of paladins within the Priests of Marr and whose charge it is to protect the holy Temple of Marr.

Say: “hail”

Bless you. my friend! We always welcome new converts into our Hall of Truth. The righteous army of the twin deities must assemble. The battle draws near. The blessings of the Truthbringer are passed to all who are [devoted to truth].

Say: “fallen knight”

The fallen knight is Sir Lucan D'Lere. The organizer and leader of the Freeport Militia. He once stood beside us. Now he shall burn!! We will end him. We shall [crush the Freeport Militia]. Truth shall reign once again.

Say: “true organizer”

Captain Hazran is the commander of the Freeport Militia. Lucan has no time to waste on relegating duties. Hazran is the one who keeps these brutes together as a militia. Stop him and maybe the militia will collapse. Find a way to return his head to me. That would surely bring great thanks from this temple.

Say: “devoted to truth”

May the hand of Marr shield you from harm. Welcome to our world. The war begins here in Freeport. The [fallen knight] has masked the truth from the world, but he cannot mask his evil from the Truthbringer. He once followed our ways. Now he is our enemy and yours. We must end his rule. We must [crush the Freeport Militia]!!

Work on the ways of valor before we discuss such things. You are on the righteous path of the Truthbringer, but there is more work to do.

Say: “crush the freeport militia”

'Our goal is to end their rule. To retake our city in the name of Marr. Let it begin with their blood!! Slay the militia!! They have no souls and hail from the back alleys and prison cells of darkness and depravity. Thieves and murderers, nothing more. Slay any you can and, as proof, return their militia helms to me. We shall see what bounty you deserve.

Work on the ways of valor before we discuss such things. You are on the righteous path of the Truthbringer, but there is more work to do.

Say: “hail”

Hail! Welcome to the Hall of Truth. We. the Knights of Truth. are all the hope this city has of loosening the grip of Lucan D'lere and his militia. I seek a young knight to [serve the will of the Truthbringer].

Say: “what serve the will of the truthbringer”

Shame on you. To set foot into the Hall of Truth and not know for whom it was built. Still. it is never too late to see the light. Mithaniel Marr is our deity. He is the Truthbringer. By living our lives in valor and crushing all those who suppress His beliefs. We serve Him.

Say: “i serve the will of the truthbringer”

Stand tall then, knight! We have need of your services. We have sent a man to infiltrate the militia. We fear he may soon be found out. Take him this note of warning. Say the words, 'Truth is good,' and you shall find him. Be careful, young knight. The militia does not take prisoners.

Work on the ways of valor before we discuss such things. You are on the righteous path of the Truthbringer, but there is more work to do.

Say: “zimel's blades”

Why would Lucan visit a condemned building? He must be searching for something. When I last visited the local forge, I heard rumors of Lucan searching for a sword named Soulfire. If this is true, you must find it first! No more power should go his way. Seek this sword out!

Work on the ways of valor before we discuss such things. You are on the righteous path of the Truthbringer, but there is more work to do.

Say: “hail”

Hail. good citizen! You have entered the Hall of Truth. What is it you seek? Many citizens come to request aid in dealing with the local rogues or the oppression of our sworn enemies. the Freeport Militia. A few valiant ones have been [summoned to the Hall of Truth].

Say: “summoned to the hall of truth”

You have been summoned? You do not have the look of nobility. You must be a [squire]. There are many squires who have been summoned to our Hall. Not all pass the [Test of Truth].

Say: “squire”

Then I welcome you, Squire . Being a squire is the first step to becoming a true knight of the Hall of Truth. Remember always to protect and serve the meek. I have a [small task] which suits a squire perfectly.

Say: “small task”

Venture to the Commonlands and seek out our noble friend Altunic Jartin. He lives and works out of his home. Hand him this note.

Say: “token of generosity”

Go to the deserts of North Ro. Seek out the desert tarantulas. Stand and face this dreaded creature. If you are lucky, you will find a venom sac. This is what I require. When you return, hand it to me.

Say: “test of truth”

Only when a squire is ready, may he tempt his fate. All he need do is hand the tokens of bravery and generosity to me. If the squire survives his ordeal, then he or she shall enter the order of the Knights of Truth. The squire will be given the Testimony of Truth and become a respected knight.

Say: “Who is willia”

She is my niece. Lucan ordered her to kill my wife.. She did. She now belongs to the Freeport Militia. As part of the militia, she must die!! Let no militia member stand in the way of nobility.

Say: “riddles”

Well I don't have any riddles for you today. However I do have a [story] to tell about some adventures who were very adept at solving riddles.

Say: “story”

Not too long ago there were a group of adventurers, some were friends and some were not. These adventurers traveled far to meet with each other, and this rag-tag crew was thrown together, united for a [common goal].

Say: “common goal”

What other common goal do most people in this land share? The accumulation of wealth of course, that isn't to say they didn't serve a greater good, they helped all sorts in their travels, gnomes, dancing bixies, dragons, scarecrows, pixies, elves, nearly anything you can imagine. It was quite a sight to see, they were not the only [participants] in this grand adventure, however they were the ones who finished with the most to coin show for it.

Say: “participants”

As I said, there were all manner of participants, however our victors were, Livius Maximus, Moonglumm Riptear, Rhuigha Spirithealer, Littlun Bigheart, Jaras Loupgeist, Balshazzar Synapse, Ironking, Riverraine, Dolaf, Breezar and Wichy Wolfpup, Valthor Runefang, Niborris, and Rixma.

Say: “cure disease”

If you require me to cure disease. it will cost you 10 gold coins.

Say: “hail”

Your soul is welcome in our temple. The Queen of Love, Erollisi Marr, desires more to join our ranks. This city of Freeport must not stay under the control of the Freeport Militia. I am here to [cure poison] and [cure disease], or if any [need healing].

Say: “cure poison”

Before the Queen of Passion can force the toxin from your system, I shall require 3 bixie stingers to perform the act.

Say: “cure disease”

The affliction which has been cast upon you shall be purged from your body, but first I need two portions of zombie flesh to perform the act.

Say: “healing”

If it is the power of the passion you require to bind your wounds, then lay down your tribute of 10 gold.

Say: “hail”

Hello. I am Rashinda Elore. The city Landholder Manager. If you have business to discuss. please direct it to my two clerks downstairs. Good day.

Say: “blades”

'Zimel's Blades? It used to be a fine place of rare weaponry. [Ariska Zimel] was the owner. No one knows what happened to the man. He just vanished overnight. His shop used to be in East Freeport which is now a slum, er, I mean, which now has plenty of available lots for sale with plenty of potential. As for Zimel's Blades, we [condemned] it.

Say: “ariska zimel”

Ariska Zimel was a human blacksmith, a master when it came to making swords, I hear. He kept to himself a lot. He disappeared about one year ago. A lot of people were disappointed when we had to condemn Zimel's Blades. All the merchandise was handed over to Groflah Steadirt. Mostly charred junk.

Say: “groflah steadirt”

Groflah Steadirt is the dwarven owner of Groflah's Forge which is right near here. He was Ariska Zimel's best friend. They were apparently avid travelers before settling down here in Freeport. I guess it was during their travels that they picked up the fine arts of the forge. You should talk to Groflah about Zimel. He can tell you more than I can.

Say: “condemned”

About a week after Ariska Zimel's disappearance, strange noises were heard from his shop. Loud booms and rumbling as though the earth itself were exploding. When the militia got to the shop, they said the shop was badly burned by an exploding boiler. They had us condemn the building due to its unsafe structure

Say: “recruits”

Well you see sense I am such a well seasoned adventurer my knowledge is very helpful to the young members of our house. That is why I have developed a system of hunting and gathering assignments that reward the new recruit with a set of armor that they work very hard to craft themselves. Are you a [young cleric of House Marr]? If so I will be happy to offer my assignments to you.

Say: “young cleric of house marr”

Great! Let me first begin by explaining how you will be creating your own armor. You will use this magical kit I have presented you with to gather numerous [recipe components]. Your magical kit will be used to gather specific materials that will form together in certain numbers and quantities to create an armor material. You must then take the material you have fashioned to a forge along with armor molds that I will supply you with to create your armor.

Say: “recipe components”

There are many different items that you will need to collect for your material components in all areas surrounding Freeport and our temple. I will be able to supply you with the mold for any armor piece you [want] to craft. I have the molds and recipes necessary for [Helms], [Bracers], [Armguards], [Boots], [Greaves], [Gauntlets] and [Breastplates]. When you are ready to craft a piece simply tell me what piece you would like to craft. For example if you wanted to create boots you would say, 'I want to craft boots'.

To create your helm material you will need to combine 2 Bricks of Crude Iron Ore, 1 Leaf Scarab Carapace , 1 Armadillo Tooth and 2 Fish Scales in your assembly kit.

Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Bracer of the Ordained.

Once you have created the proper material take it to a forge along with this mold to fashion your very own Breastplate of the Ordained. Please return to me when you are finished with your breastplate for one [final mission].

Say: “final mission”

As you must already know the Freeport Militia has been a thorn in our side ever sense they were trusted to care for our city during the crusade. Things have never been the same sense then and things are actually starting to get worse. There have been numerous reports of Freeport Militia soldiers harassing all those that do not follow their rules of tyranny. My sister was bringing me a newsletter from qeynos when she was abducted. She escaped but [Deisnak] stole the newsletter she was delivering to me.

Say: “deisnak”

Deisnak is a high ranking officer in the Freeport Militia, some would even call him untouchable. I need you to retrieve my newsletter for me by all means necessary. It had some very important messages from Qeynos and I must have it. Return to me with my newsletter and two Pristine Scarab Eyes and I will reward you greatly for your efforts.

Say: “hail”

Greetings! I would love to converse with you, but as you cansee, I am standing my watch.

Say: “hail”

Please seek guidance from the clerics within this temple. I am but a Sentry of Passion and my duty is to protect this temple.

Say: “hail”

I welcome you to the Temple of Marr. home to clerics of the deities Erollisi and Mithaniel Marr. Please seek guidance from the clerics.

Say: “hail”

Welcome. friend! Please seek the words of the clerics of Marr. Their words are the words which will set us free from the tyranny of the Freeport Militia.

Say: “hail”

Please speak with the masters. I am on watch and have no time to converse.

Say: “hail”

May the words of Marr be passed on to you. Please seek knowledge from the masters of this temple.

Say: “sisterhood of erollisi”

The Sisterhood of Erollisi is a band of female warriors. Their founders hail from Kelethin. They now train and live upon an island in the Ocean of Tears. We often check up on them. We share the same deity.

Say: “hail”

It is a good thing to see new faces visiting our temple. We are the source of strength within this city. Do not be fooled by the Freeport Militia. They are not warriors of valor. [Join the fight against the Freeport Militia].

Say: “join the fight”

You are wise. If you are a paladin, either speak with Theron of this temple or visit the Hall of Truth here in North Freeport. Clerics should concetrate on keeping the knights strong and healthy. Would you care to [assist the Temple of Marr]?

Say: “assist”

Good. Take this Potion of Marr to the Sentries of Passion. They are the protectors of this temple. Start in alphabetical order and the first shall take but a sip then you shall take it to the next in order of the alphabet. There are but eight sentries. Sentry Andlin to Sentry Xyrin. Go.

The path you walk is correct, but you have further to travel before you need worry about this.

Say: “befallen”

You did well to ride swiftly with this news. I must take this directly to Valeron Dushire. If you learn more about this plot that would unleash this monster upon Norrath or wish to someday soon aid the Knights of Truth in putting down this evil, then return to speak to me again at a later time.

Say: “hail”

Greetings to you

Say: “what work”

Well I have numerous concerts here that I must prepare for so I always must be sure that I have the best possible support as far as my fellow bards go. I am always seeking new young talent to sing in our concerts. If you are a bard I have made tasks for you to complete to see if you are a worthy songweaver. These tasks will test your determination and battle skills. I would only allow one that has completed all of my [specific tests] to sing in my concert hall.

Say: “what specific test”

If you are ready to begin your training I will assign you a number of tests. These tests will enable you to outfit yourself with a suit of armor only worn by the most respected musicians of Freeport. First. I will present you with a Songweavers Assembly Kit. In this kit you will combine certain [recipes] that will be magically formed into an armor material. Each one of these materials will need to be combined in a forge with the appropriate mold to make your armor piece.

Say: “what recipe”

I have the material recipes available for Songweavers Platemail [Helms]. [Bracers]. [Armguards]. [Boots]. [Greaves]. [Gauntlets] and [Breastplates]. When you are ready to craft a specific piece simply tell me what armor piece you [want] to craft. For example if you would wish to craft a helm tell me [I want to craft a helm]. Also please keep in mind that the components necessary for crafting your breastplate material are the most difficult to collect so you might want to collect them last.

There has been numerous reports lately of the Orcs in the Commonlands being up to no good. Some actually believe that they are stockpiling wood for some odd reason. Regardless of their purpose the increased number of orcs in any given area just spells trouble for all the surrounding areas. I need you to go and [collect some warbeads] from some high ranking orcs. Obtaining these warbeads will not be easy I would presume. Will you assist me in this final task?

Say: “hail”

Welcome, welcome, welcome! This is the Emporium. If we don't have it, we can get it!!

Say: “boat beacon”

What!!? Looking for a boat beacon? We may be getting one from Ak'Anon in about a year. You can always try to make one. Find a greater lightstone, a metal disk and a copper band. If you have a beacon mount, go to a forge and combine them all. It's not that hard, but it's not that easy, either.

Say: “hail”

Greetings,

Say: “join the crusade”

Then take arms against the Freeport Militia! They serve no one save Sir Lucan, the fallen knight. From this day forth, I put a bounty upon all militia members. For every bashed milita helm, a reward!! If you are not prepared to battle the militia just yet, you may [assist in other areas].

Say: “assist in other areas”

I have need of one such as you. I have been awaiting a message. I will need a young acolyte to [retrieve the message] for me or there are also some [fishing duties] I wish to delegate.

Say: “retrieve the message”

Thank you,

Say: “fishing duties”

I have been creating shields for the crusade. Right now I work on the sharkskin shield for the knights. I require two shark skins. Unfortunately, most sharks are too dangerous for the squires. I have begun using [reef shark] skins. Will you hunt the [reef sharks]?

Say: “reef shark”

Reef sharks are the smallest and most docile of the sharks. Even a young acolyte can slay one. I have heard there are some in the Ocean of Tears. I need a young acolyte to [hunt] reef sharks. I require their skins.

Say: “hunt”

I thought I spied the shoulders of a swimmer upon you! Take this large sack. Travel to the Ocean of Tears. There are numerous reef sharks there. I shall require no fewer than two shark skins. When the full sack is combined and returned to me, I shall reward you.

Say: “knight”

The fallen knight I speak of is none other than Sir Lucan D'Lere. The self proclaimed ruler of this city. He is no ruler and he never was no true Knight of Truth. If it were not for the [Crusade of Tears] this city would still be united in valor.

Say: “crusade”

In the year of thirty one hundred fifty. the Knights of Truth were called upon by the twin gods Erollisi and Mithaniel Marr. They instructed us to go forth across the Ocean of Tears and across the lands of Faydwer and purge the lands of the undead. It was during this crusade Freeport was left in the care of Sir Lucan D'Lere. How unfortunate.

Say: “Hail”

Hail.

Say: “what mail”

The League of Antonican Bards has a courier system made up of travelers and adventurers. We pay good gold to anyone who will take messages from bards such as myself to one of our more distant offices. Are you [interested]?

Say: “i am interested”

I have messages that need to go to Highpass, Kelethin, and Qeynos. Will you [deliver] mail to [Kelethin], [Highpass], or [Qeynos] for me?

Say: “deliver to kelethin”

Take this pouch to Idia in Kelethin. You can find her at the bard guild hall. I am sure she will compensate you for your troubles.

Say: “deliver to highpass”

Take this pouch to Lislia Goldtune in Highpass. You can find her at the entrance to HighKeep. I am sure she will compensate you for your troubles.

Say: “deliver to qeynos”

Take this pouch to Eve Marsinger in Qeynos. You can find her at the bard guild hall. I am sure she will compensate you for your troubles.

Say: “hail”

I am Sir Valeron Dushire, leader of the order of the Knights of Truth. If your soul shines with purity and strength, I urge you to join our order. The might of Mithaniel Marr stands behind all who join. Soon that might will help us free this city from the tyranny of the [Freeport Militia].

Say: “freeport militia”

The Freeport Militia took control of this city long ago. They are nothing more than a group of thugs not worthy of respect. They follow the words of [Sir Lucan] D'Lere. He has been a thorn in this city's side for too long. If you wish to aid us in the fight against tyranny, go speak with Jemoz or Sir Theron. May the Truthbringer shine upon your soul.

Say: “stop sir lucan”

That would be good, but I doubt you can. We have been trying for years and are unable to get him apart from the militia. If you do the impossible and destroy Sir Lucan, bring me his testimony. Every knight of the Hall of Truth carries a signed testimony. Sir Lucan still holds his.

Say: “sir lucan”

Lucan is a bad seed. You see, I trained Sir Lucan. He was nothing more than a street rat who was taken in by the Temple of Marr. The priests taught him and found him to be very agile and strong. They requested either the Priests of Marr or the Knights of Truth take him on as a squire. Gygus could not spare the trainers at the time and so we took the boy. The boy became a man, and a very formidable knight. Then something [went awry].

Say: “went awry”

During one of our crusades into the lands of Norrath, we left Sir Lucan in charge of the remaining knights. He did much good and the people respected him. He was overtaken by power. He soon began to hire mercenaries to guard the city, calling them the Freeport Militia. His true downfall began when he killed Sentry Dillius, a paladin of the Priests of Marr. His divine powers were stripped from his soul. He was a paladin no longer. He and his militia now control the city. They treat it as their playground and bully the populace. Someone must [stop Sir Lucan].

Say: “hero”

His name has been long lost but his legend lives on in every young knight who aspires to continue his fight. He attempted to quell an evil that resided within Kithicor, perverting nature itself. Much to his relief, it was an earthly foe he fought against and not a denizen summoned from the planes of evil. Then, suddenly, he was surrounded by dozens of dark elves. He was captured and taken to the Dead to be experimented upon and had his soul twisted by vile necromantic magics. Then the Tier'Dal cast his remains to the winds. Where they landed, no one knew, until now. You have found one of his bones. I hereby charge you with a Holy Quest to bring this Hero's bones back for a burial with honors. Do you [accept], knight?

Say: “i accept”

Good! I knew you would. It is one of the highest honors one can receive. Your quest will not be easy for I know not where his other bones lay. A spy of ours within Neriak was able to surmise that six of his bones along with his sword and shield were scattered throughout Norrath. You must search far and wide to find the remaining pieces, as you already have one.. Do not give up. It is now your sacred duty. Once you have retrieved all eight pieces, come back to me and inform me that you [have all the bones].

Say: “have all the bones”

Excellent! You are indeed worthy to bear the title of Holy Knight! Now, about the coffin. I have spoken with Ping Fuzzlecutter, outside the western gates. Ask him about the coffin and once it is made, bring it to Simon Aldicott of Marr. I shall have Simon meet you by the lake in the Commonlands after Ping gives you the coffin.
