Quest text[edit]

I need your knowledge to survive here in this new land.

The day is as harsh as standing in a forge, and night might as well be the dead of winter. I have to remain vigilant to the howlers that prowl on the skirts of my camp. I have not found a water source, and the supplies I stole from Tazoon in my flight are running out.

Which do you feel is the highest priority of all of these problems?

I need to find water. The cycle of the day has made me consume far more than I should have - I might not last long without it. Take this crude waterskin and go scout for a source of water I can collect from.

When locating a source - bear in mind that my kind isn't popular right now with your military, and the other Welger in Tazoon would kill me so I can't use the water there. Find something without crossing soldiers, civilizations or other Welger to get to it.

(Find water. Got it.)

You have received 1 Shau's Waterskin.

Good... with this water I have a hope of dying in battle rather than alone in a desert from thirst, though I suspect eventually I will die alone of old age. Let us address the next issue: Howlers.

Steps[edit]

  • Listen to Shau
  • Find source of water for Shau. Remember, you are looking for a location that is away from any Welgers, civilization, or militia.
    • Run to the Oasis at 23671/24350(map)
  • Return and speak with Shau
