Quest text[edit]

Speak with Scale-Guard Kerrak

The Saris helped the Sslik find a new home many years ago and protected this one's people until the Sslik were strong enough to protect themselves. For that, the Sslik will be eternally thankful and hold the Saris as friends. These Sslik's friends, however, can be... presumptuous. Lady Kendra feels that the Saris need to establish a garrison here to help the Sslik protect their town.

  • The Sslik should protect themselves.

That is how Kerrak feels also, <player>! Kerrak has told the Lady that the Sslik are not kittens who need to be carried by the scruff! The Sslik are strong and will stand side by side with the Saris. Lady Kendra remains doubtful, and continues to politely hint that the Sslik should accept a garrison. Kerrak is determined to show Kendra and the Empire that the Sslik can defend themselves.

  • How can I help?

Kerrak needs to assess the status of the town stores to ensure that there are sufficient supplies in the event of an attack. Weapons, armor, food, spells, these are the things that Kerrak is concerned there is not enough. Will <player> speak with others in town about this?

  • Yes, I can do that. Who would I speak with?

Nassath the Blacksmith, Grash the Outfitter, Kesh the Scholar, Sshranu the Alchemist, Hakzha the Weaponsmith, and Fillet the Confectioner. Verify that each has sufficient supplies on hand and return here to Kerrak.


Assess the state of the town's stores by speaking with the managers

Game Feedback: You have spoken to every store manager. Return to Scale-Guard Kerrak with your report.

Good day and welcome, <player>. What can this one help with?

  • Kerrak wishes to know the state of your store of tools.

Speak with Nassath the Blacksmith

This one's stores of tools and ores are more than sufficient. Perhaps if Kerrak came by to ask directly, <player> would not have needed to do so!


Speak with Grash the Outfitter

Grash has already heard that <player> wishes to know about the supply of armor. This one has fifty leather suits of armor ready. Tell Kerrak that there is no need to worry.

Kesh welcomes one to Sslanis. What can this one help <player> with?

  • Kerrak needs to know if you have sufficient spells prepared.

Speak with Kesh the Scholar

Kesh does not like to be questioned, but yes, this one has numerous spells prepared in case of emergency. Flame Bolt, Revitalize, Flame Ward, even a few Flame Bomb spells. Tell Kerrak that Kesh knows how to prepare for an emergency.


Speak with Sshranu the Alchemist

This one already knows what <player> is here for. Word travels fast in this town. Would <player> like to see the supply of potions? There are many. Tell Kerrak that Sshranu has depleted a supply of essence orbs, but there are more than enough potions.

What can Hakzha help <player> with?

  • Kerrak wishes to know if you have enough weapons made.

Speak with Hakzha the Weaponsmith

Hakzha does not have enough weapons, <player>, for this one has run out of copper bars. Would <player> get some from Matlalu for Hakzha?

<player> is welcome. What does one need?

  • Hakzha has run out of copper bars and needs ten more.

Speak with Matlalu the Miner about Copper Bars for Hakzha the Weaponsmith

Very well, it is good that Matlalu stockpiled bars for the future.


Return to Hakzha the Weaponsmith with Copper Bars

Yes, yes, this will help Hakzha create more swords. Thanks, <player>.

What does <player> want?

  • Kerrak sent me to ask about the town stores of food in case of emergency.

Speak with Fillet the Confectioner

Again? Arrrrgh! Yesterday Kerrak was poking around in here and complaining that the beef and pepper stocks were short. While Fillet was out getting those together, Sshranu came in and took half the salt rock to make into fireworks! Fillet has a stack of customer orders to fill and does not have time to go gather a load of salt rock just to make Kerrak happy! Fillet has heard that Salaqueel returned earlier today with salt rock. Would <player> speak with Salaqueel for this one?

<player>, Salaqueel does not supply the town with finished goods such as weapons or spells or potions. This one cannot help you.

  • Fillet was asking about salt rock because Sshranu used all of his yesterday.

Speak with Salaqueel the Gatherer about salt rock for Fillet

Again? Between those two, Salaqueel cannot keep salt rock in stock. It is good that this one just got back to town with more. Take it, <player>.

It is a good thing Fillet was here working! Sshranu tried to get the rest of the salt rock from the stores, but this time Fillet was here and had a mixing spoon handy! Fillet hopes that <player> has more salt rock from Salaqueel.

  • Yes, here you are.

Deliver the Salt Rock to Fillet

Excellent. This one gives thanks, <player>, and the help has lifted this one's spirits greatly.

Welcome back, <player>. What is the state of the town's stores?

  • <You tell Kerrak about the status of each.>

Return to Scale-Guard Kerrak about the state of the town's stores

Sshranu and Fillet are at it again? Hssss... Those two half-shells started bickering back when Fillet had the only grindstone in town. Sshranu got a second one, but this one suspects that they keep the feud out of tradition. Kaasha, give me strength to endure! Kerrak thanks <player> for the help. This one may rest easier knowing that the supplies for the town are in sufficient shape should an emergency arise.
