At Ranger Kishar's behest, you assaulted the Temple of Merrasat and removed the undead presence. There you found that the undead had tainted the ground and a revered Relic of Merrasat. It must be returned to Kion for safekeeping.


Quest text[edit]

The Relic does not appear to have escaped undamaged, <player>. I can feel the taint of the blight on it. Regardless, it must be returned to the people of Kion for safekeeping. Take it to Lady Kendra.

Welcome back, <player>. What can I do for you?

  • <You tell her of the Ancient Temple and show her the Tainted Relic.>

That is quite a fascinating tale, <player>, one which places us once more in your debt. If this relic is tainted as you say then it must be cleansed before we keep it here in town.

  • How can it be cleaned?

Game Feedback: She laughs.


Speak with Lady Kendra in Kion about the Relic of Merrasat

Oh, the means by which it can be cleansed is beyond my skills or knowledge, <player>. However, Curate Mera of the Clerical Order can surely help you with that. You can find her near the bank.

Good day to you, <player>. What can I help you with?

  • Lady Kendra sent me to get help cleansing this Relic of Merrasat.

A Relic of the goddess? I never thought I would see another, they are extremely rare. Where did you find this one?

  • It was wrested from the Scorched Legion that occupied the Ancient Temple in the Deep Forest.

Well, it is good to hear that it was saved. You say it is tainted though. May I see it?

  • Yes, here it is.

Thank you. Yes, the blight was slowly seeping into it. I can hardly feel the magic of life any longer. Fortunately, all is not lost, <player>!

  • Can it be cleansed and restored?

Speak with Curate Mera about cleansing the Relic of Merrasat. She can be found at the Kion Hospital south of the Vault.

Of course! There is enough magic remaining in it for that. I will need a few components for the ritual, I hope you won't mind collecting them for me. A Potion of Cleansing and some dim essence orbs will work nicely, <player>. You can get the potion from the Alchemist, Haron Bubblepop. Go, quickly, please.

Greetings to you, <player>. What can I help you with?

  • Curate Mera asked me to retrieve a Potion of Cleansing.

Speak with Haron Bubblepop the Alchemist about a Potion of Cleansing at the second floor of the Vault building

She did, did she? Well, she is in luck today... I have a batch of potions I finished brewing just this very morning. And, I do owe her for helping me last week with a... delicate matter. Here you are, <player>.


Acquire four (4) Dim Essence Orbs. You can either craft them by yourself or trade them with a player/Consigner of your choice.

Game Feedback: You've acquired sufficient orbs for Curate Mera.

Very good, yes these will do nicely. Confused? Do not be. Potions of Cleansing are sometimes used to strip the magical properties from Artifacts.

  • What of the orbs? And won't the potion strip the Life magic from the Relic?

Return to Curate Mera with the components

Insightful questions, <player>! The orbs will empower the potion even further to help overcome the effects of the blighted taint. To prevent the potion from stripping the life magic away, I intend to add a Prayer to Merrasat that was blessed yesterday and should help rebind the life magic to the Relic.


Wait for Curate Mera to complete the Cleansing Ritual

Game Feedback: Curate Mera has completed the cleansing ritual.


Speak with Curate Mera about the Relic

Whew, I'm tired, but it is done. The Relic has been cleansed. Here, take it back to Lady Kendra, <player>.

I have heard rumors that the cleansing ceremony was a success. I am glad to see you return, <player>. You have the relic I assume?

  • Yes, here it is.

Deliver the Cleansed Relic of Merrasat to Lady Kendra in Kion

Thank you. You are a true friend of the Saris, <player>. Please, accept this as a gesture of our deepest gratitude.
