Lauri has a new task for you! This time, you are finding a bigger and more dangerous enemy.

Quest text[edit]

Lauri tells you, To the north is one of Istara's beautiful creations. A small field with plenty of lovely flowers! It would be a nice place to relax, but it has also attracted a swarm of Tiny Grass Beetles. Normally we don't mind Grass Beetles, but one of them is much larger than the others; a female. Females are much larger than their males and can reproduce so fast you can't even count them. I ask that you dispatch it so that the grass and flowers may have a chance to grow.

Lauri tells you, If you used any slashing or piercing weapons, you may be doing less damage to it then you were with the other creatures. It can take a little bit longer to kill beetles, especially the ones that can make their shells even harder to penetrate. Thankfully, you have crushing weapons, which are the best for tackling these sorts of bugs.

Lauri tells you, The female should be visibly bigger than the others, so she shouldn't be too hard to spot. She will also be the only one to attack you. She is very protective, much like us. Honor your opponent and you will strike true. Istara protect you, <player>.


Lauri tells you, Have you laid the female to rest, <player>? Thank you. I hope her spirit rests in Istara's hands to be shaped into another wonderful creature. There are many creatures like her in the world - bigger and stronger versions of their brethren, often named by fearful villages. Always be wary, my friend, and remember to protect those in need. That is the way of the Cleric.

Steps[edit]

  • Listen to Lauri.
  • Find and kill the Female Grass Beetle. She should be mixed in with the others and be visibly larger. Grass Beetles usually roam in the field far north of town, near the shore.
  • Return to Lauri.
