Fire Blasted Carapace

You must solve a series of riddles given to you by Lantenal in order to collect the pieces required to fashion the Cask of Holding. Lantenal's first riddle is:
Hellfire blooms beneath the shell,
In crags of magma where they dwell.
Into the furnace find the flame,
Wrest from this insect foe the same.

Quest text[edit]

Lantenal tells you, The ancient rituals scribed by your Helian ancestors do not reveal the name or nature of the creature we seek. They answer our questions only in riddle.


Hellfire blooms beneath the shell,

In crags of magma where they dwell.

Into the furnace find the flame,

Wrest from this insect foe the same.


Lantenal tells you, You have returned victorious, <player>? I see you have the symbol of flame. I trust the creature proved a worthy opponent, for its flame must be of the purest nature. Here then, give me the symbol and lend me your cask, and I will channel the essence of the creature into the cask for you.

Lantenal tells you, I will keep the cask for now, <player>. Rest assured, the first element is safely contained within. Now, let us continue your trials with the second element. Speak to me again and I will give you the second riddle.

Steps[edit]

  • Solve the riddle and find a symbol of flame...
    Lorgus is the answer. Kill him and retrieve his carapace.
  • Return to Lantenal with the Fire Blasted Carapace
