You smell funny. What have you been doing?<BR><BR>Oh no! It's not you, it's me! You see, there, on my boot? Ghillie poo. Must have stepped in some on the way to work. Happens all too often.<BR><BR>{@LinkCreature:63#3003#Elthienne} has some work for you, if you're interested. I'm gonna have to clean up. Your timing is impeccable. The Hands require materials that are currently walking around near the {@Rgn:23001#Lake of Tears}.<BR><BR>Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to track down some monsters, and bring us some trophies. Look at this! Plenty for our purposes.<BR><BR>Thanks, <PCNAME>. See {@LinkCreature:63#3003#Elthienne}. The Hands need top-notch armor. Trouble is, we can't afford it.<BR><BR>Travel to the {@Rgn:23001#Lake of Tears} and expropriate some from the {@LinkCreature:23#9#molten fangspawns}.<BR><BR>If it can protect a fangspawn, it can protect us. We've got the skills to fashion whatever you retrieve into something we can use. Wonderful! You're so awesome.<BR><BR>Tell {@LinkCreature:63#3003#Elthienne} I said we should give you a bonus—not that she ever listens to me. We're running low on armor. Turns out that stuff has to be replaced when you constantly skirmish with arachnens and kulkaris.<BR><BR>Would you mind prying some off the corpses of a few {@LinkCreature:23#13#searing fangspawns} near the {@Rgn:23001#Lake of Tears}?<BR><BR>You'll have to turn them into corpses first, of course. Ah, that's the stuff. Tell {@LinkCreature:63#3003#Elthienne} I'll get to work on these right away. We'd like you to head to the {@Rgn:23001#Lake of Tears} and bring back the dust generated by {@LinkCreature:23#14#lurking teraliths}.<BR><BR>The dust makes for a rich, strong clay when mixed with water and few other secret ingredients.<BR><BR>I can use it to make all kinds of things, from pottery to bludgeoning tools. In case you hadn't noticed, I'm crafty. Thank you, <PCNAME>. Sometimes I wonder if the Hands of Velika are worthy of your service.
