Quest text[edit]

Here is your assignment, ungrel. Once the briefing will have started, you will have twelve (12) hours to complete the mission and bring me back the artifacts. If you can't do it in time, it will be considered as a failure and the mission will be assigned to someone else. When you are ready, talk to me again.

Your mission, ungrel, should you choose to accept it, is to find pieces of evidence of what happened in an abandoned village.

A small abandoned village exists north of the Spire. There is no sign of inhabitants and it may have had a specific purpose. The scholars of Dalimond would like to know more about this place. Locate any items that could give information to solve this mystery.

The village is located between the Spire and the Barasavian Desert. The Spire is northeast of Dalimond, you can miss this strange giant structure. You will probably have to look in every nook and cranny, visit the buildings and the entire village. Good luck.


(Trigger point at 23731/23648(map)) You have found a piece of destroyed furniture. You notice a piece of wood which seems to be from an altar. You take it with you. You have received 1 Piece of Shattered Altar.


(Trigger point at 23706/23633(map)) You have found a highly decorated tunic but it is half burned and really dirty. It reminds you of Priests outfits. You have received 1 Burned Priest Tunic.


(Trigger point at 23715/23602(map)) You have found an old basket which seems to have been well decorated. Its content is completely dry after the years, but you believe there was food inside. You have received 1 Old Ceremony Basket.


(Trigger point at 23753/23610(map)) You have found a large vessel with flowers dead for a long time.They crumble as soon as you touch them. You have received 1 Broken Large Flower Vessel.


(Trigger point at 23778/23688(map)) You have found some pieces of shredded ribbons in the dust. Some are still hung to the walls. You take one of them with you. You have received 1 Shredded Decorative Ribbon.


(Trigger point at 23878/23559(map)) This building looks like a barrel storage. One of them has been shattered and smells like vinegar. You believe they were filled with wine before. You pick up a piece of it. You have received 1 Piece of Broken Wine Barrel.


(When all items are obtained) All the items you have found are signs of a kind of ceremony or revelry. You feel you have missed something to solve the mystery.


(Trigger point at 23739/23642(map)) Near the standing stone, you trip on something. Half buried in the ground, you find a Dragon claw. No, you find two of them. They don't seem designed for combat and are heavily decorated. You have received 2 Dragon Wedding Claw. You don't have the time to wonder about them longer: you rummaging has disturbed some ghosts that have appeared and attack you!

(At this moment, Ghostly Dragon Bride, Ghostly Dragon Groom and Ghostly Saris Priest appear near the standing stone and attack the player.)


(After defeating the ghosts)

Dragon Groom says, 'They have slain us, but at least we are together.

Dragon Bride says, 'We can now rest in peace. Tell them we have forgiven them.

Saris Priest says, 'Thank you for freeing our souls.

You need a few seconds to collect yourself and realize what happened. It seems something terrible occurred during a Dragon wedding ceremony but you have no clue to whom "they" was referring to. This discovery gives as many answers as questions. Return to Toresa at the Guild of the Artifact Hunters with evidence and your testimony. Hurry before time is up.


Well done, ungrel. Here is your reward. I have prepared these bags for the adventurers of the day. There are coins inside... and I have added a bonus in a few of them. Will you be lucky?
