Quest text[edit]

Step: Speak to Ranger Kishar

Kishar tells you, 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.

You have received 1 Tainted Relic of Merrasat.


Step: Speak with Lady Kendra in Kion about the Relic of Merrasat

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

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

She laughs.

Kendra tells you, 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?

Kendra tells you, 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.


Step: Speak with Curate Mera about cleansing the Relic of Merrasat.

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

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

Mera tells you, 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.

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

  • Yes, here it is.

Mera tells you, 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?

Mera tells you, 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.


Step: Speak with Haron Bubblepop the Alchemist about a Potion of Cleansing...

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

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

Haron tells you, 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>.

You have received 1 Potion of Cleansing.


Mera tells you, 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?

Mera tells you, 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.

Curate Mera has completed the cleansing ritual.

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

You have received 1 Cleansed Relic of Merrasat.


Step: Deliver the Cleansed Relic of Merrasat to Lady Kendra in Kion

Kendra tells you, 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.

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

You have received 1 Relic of Merrasat.
