Now that you are a grandmaster, Hasera has something for you.

Quest text[edit]

<player> - now that you are a grandmaster of the way of the fist, I think it is a good time to tell you of a secret.

The mastery of the way of the fist is only the beginning for someone who passes the trials. It is the foundation of something much grander, and you have mastered this way. Now you begin life anew as a follower in the way of beasts.

When the Saris began to develop the way of the fist - some took inspirations from real or mythical beings for guidance. Over time, certain styles emerged as various techniques were taught over generations.

Welcome to your new journey as an initiate into the Way of the Tiger, Grandmaster. Are you ready to earn your claws?

There is a situation you might be able to help with. There is a strong and powerful kwellen named Daknor rampaging on the border of the Spirituous Swamp and the Eastern Deadlands.

It is said that the Dark Tiger is a strong and powerful beast as well. Daknor should teach you how to fight with the ferocity of the Tiger. Additionally, his minions also pose a grave threat to the living.

I wish for you to kill two of his minions, the berserk kwellen. Return to me when the kwellens are no more.

Hasera tells you, It is done? Good work <player>

In return for your service, please accept this. It is but a single piece of a weapon suitable for someone of your skill level. It is, however, of no use to you if you do not know how to finish the weapon.

Hasera tells you, You should speak to Vargas the Bold to learn how to turn this leather strip into a usable weapon. He assists adventurers in the art of creating Legendary Weapons, and should be able to direct you in what is needed to complete this one. Not for free, of course - the exchange for his services is for your participation in the war effort. Good luck, Grandmaster.
