Hethsa tells you, I have little involvement in this, myself. I would suggest first speaking to Nyasana, who resides on the northern cliff face of this peak, just a short way from here. In older days, she was well capable of creating the art needed to change to our most common forms. However, while I retained my sense of time after the cataclysm, she was not so lucky -- you may have to remind her of your purpose more than once. If she rejects you, don't worry, simply return a while later and act as though nothing occurred.

Nyasela tells you, It's very small, and not particularly visible, if that's what you're wondering.  After I have created this art, I simply rub a small amount of powder, created from the two reagents, into the etching and use the appropriate magic to create its effect.  The surface is left nearly unblemished after this is complete.

Nyasela tells you, Nothing especially hard to come by. Three bright essence orbs to begin with, these provide the magic, which makes the etching take effect.  A sample of Sslik ghost vapor is normally required but due to its unreliable nature I will be able to use Soul Fragments, they also provide a sort of template for this particular alternate form.  Unfortunately due to the unstable nature of the Soul Fragments I will need five of them. Finally, a steel rune stylus.  That's right, a tool, you'll likely have to acquire this from one of the naka-duskeal.  While it may be possible to perform this with claws alone, a dragon's horns are quite durable, and I see no sense in ruining one's claws when ruining men's tools will do instead.

Quest text[edit]

Speak to Nyasana

I have little involvement in this, myself. I would suggest first speaking to Nyasana, who resides on the northern cliff face of this peak, just a short way from here. In older days, she was well capable of creating the art needed to change to our most common forms. However, while I retained my sense of time after the cataclysm, she was not so lucky -- you may have to remind her of your purpose more than once. If she rejects you, don't worry, simply return a while later and act as though nothing occurred.

You... you are alive! It's been years since I saw one who wasn't a ghost, or a swirl of bluish miasma. Or... no, no... you come from tomorrow, or a thousand years from now. I stand under the meadow's sun and watch the light glint off the Sleeper, don't I? You are another trick, another trick of these hollow mists, making the mountain look crumbled and grey! Out! I do not wish to see you again!


Wait an hour for Nyasana to forget you

Game Feedback: You suspect Nyasana may have forgotten you, now.


Speak to Nyasana

A living dragon! Truly? It has been centuries since I saw other than empty spirits wandering the blue mists under the pale, distant sun. I... believe. Or is it yesterday? Or a distant, flat desert? When am I, pray tell?

No, this shouldn't be. It was only yesterday I stood at the foot of Sleeper's Peak, admiring its perfection -- this kind of time cannot have passed. And you say you wish to learn to change your form? Am I to believe all those who live, in this thousands of years, have forgotten the simple art? At the least, those of my clan must know it, the skill has always been passed on! Seek one of them!


Seek one of Nyasana's clan

You have spoken to a ghost of one of my ancestors? This isn't something one hears every day, I must say... but I do, indeed, know the art necessary for changing forms. It's an etching, intricate but not large, which I must make into one of your horns. I must use the appropriate reagent while performing this, however. Bring me the necessary items, and I can provide you with my services.


Return to Nyasela with the necessary items -- three bright essence orbs, and five Soul Fragments.

Ah, that looks like everything. Now hold still for one minute, this won't be much trouble.

The actual act of changing form is simple, though it takes a bit of getting used to... imagine a sort of door in one's mind, which you can walk through at will. On one side is your normal form, as you stand before me now. On the other is a humanoid form, much smaller and lacking in some strength, but you just the same -- imagine stepping into that other room, it's as simple as that.


Hold still for one minute

Very good, it is done. And well etched, if I do say so myself -- not that you've much of an easy way to check.

You might wish now to try stepping into that room I spoke of earlier. It may take a bit of rummaging around in your mind to find it, but it's there.
