Ryson Stormbringer, the Hero who sacrificed himself at the Battle of Tazoon, seems to be bound to you somehow. Together, you have uncovered a Withered Aegis plot to defile ancient tombs of the Saris on Lesser Aradoth. The militia has been warned, but were you in time?
Quest text[edit]
Ryson tells you, Gifted, I fear something is still wrong on this island. My feeling of dread has grown, rather than diminished. I fear that despite your efforts to stop the Cabal from disturbing the graves of ancient Saris, there is still a greater threat we have yet to uncover.
Ryson tells you, I cannot pinpoint the location of the feeling so, like my sergeants used to say, it's time to do some scouting. If we cannot locate the disturbance through magical means, we will do so on our feet and with our eyes.
Ryson tells you, You will need to scout some potential locations on the island that have mystical significance. If there's one thing I know, it's that magical rituals nearly always utilize places of importance, such as locations that have close ties to the other Realms. There are many and they are scattered across the land. If you seek them out and know how to harness their power, they can be of great benefit to magical rituals.
Ryson tells you, How do I know this? I am no mage or scholar, but there were others in the Protectorate who were and they spoke of these things often. You would be surprised what you can learn at a campfire over the course of twenty years! Now, there is one that I remember to the south of Kion, a stone circle on a cliff overlooking the ocean.
Ryson tells you, It is a goodly distance, <player>, and there are likely threats along the way . If I recall correctly, it is beyond the Garnet Caves and into the edge of the forest. Scout it and let us see what you can find.
As you approach the stone circle you notice that it is surrounded by agents of the Cabal and they appear to be stockpiling crates nearby!
You have recovered a note from the body of one of the Cabal Agents. It speaks of a ritual and ritual items and of a place or person called Kiatar.
Ryson tells you, Gifted, what did you find at the stone circle? Agents of the Cabal and they carried a note? Tell me all.
Ryson tells you, It would seem that we are on the right track. What or who this Kiatar is, I know not. However, it would also seem that there are traitors in our midst. Once more this is too big for the two of us alone. I recommend speaking with Lady Kendra, and quickly!
Kendra tells you, Welcome back, <player>. What brings you to me once more?
Kendra tells you, Traitors in Kion? Please, allow me read this note you found.
Kendra tells you, *she shakes a fist* I cannot believe it. That any of my people would willingly serve the Cabal. Let me consider this, <player>.
