Hi Maggie! Calis of Krondor from WE here. Hebian-to just came under attack, after several Burun Ruuk Seers and others a guy named J something or other spawned.

Thanks to Gawa Ibn Edwas of SC, Deven-Kenyon SC, Rage Lao of MT

Quest Details: Renegade Fortress
Quest Details: Burun Burrow
Texts: Renegade Fortress Notes
Text: Mutual Assistance Pact

Fort: 28.5S, 65.5W (VoD)
Dungeon: Burun Burrow - 27.5S 53.9E

Gawa Ibn Edwas of SC reports: "The new fort in te dires features a door which can easily be killed. After killing the door, one will face a horde of tumeroks and lugian. They've set up their defenses pretty tight. There are walls with spikes and catapults to help them. After you entered the fort, you can jump down to the buildings inside. I didn't see a lot of the inside, as I accidentially hit a portal. The dungeon is 60+ restricted and that's where I am writing this email now."

From  Deven-Kenyon SC: ok, you go to fort, get the three letters off table, then head to the burun dungeon, speak to the dead lugian and get a key, use the key on the lugian crest downstairs and it yields the second part of the insignia. Translate in Arwic.

As you rumage through the belongings of the deceased lugian you discover an intricate key that looks to fit a special lock. There is nothing else here, perhaps the Burun took whatever this key opens.
 

Astlyr and Oldin of HG pose in Renegade Armor!

Thanks to Damien Saren of FF and Dol Cirdan of TD!

You give Translator Aun Laokhe Mutual Assistance Pact.

Now they are found being spirited to the race from beyond. For what fell purpose? I will see that Ispar Elysatah hears of this."
You've earned 1,500,000 experience.
Translator Aun Laokhe gives you Candeth Keep Blueprints.

New Quest - Drudge Fight!

Quest Details: Drudge Fight

"Darunia here again. I managed to find another Drudge Fight gem. I used it and the portal worked. :D It took me to a weird drudge dungeon."

Gem is hookable! Thanks to Dagda Silverhand for pic!

Moffy of TD reports: "After using the Drudge Fight portal gem that I found on a Drudge Stalker, I was teleported to a small, dark dungeon that was filled with Drudge Stalkers and Lurkers. Towards the end of the dungeon were two boss monsters, Baktak the Human Slayer and Kerthump the Ear Taker. When they were killed, each dropped a Drudge Championship Belt. The timer is 7 days for picking up the trophy, but you can drop or give the belt away if you wish." Thanks also to Damien Saren of FF!

Lucifer's Hand of TD reports: "Just wanted to give ya some info on the new quest on Aphus Lassel. First you need to find a Psychophant corpse on the western part of Bobo's Island (Same island Kleeoh is on). Loot the corpse for a piece of paper, then take it to Brighteyes the Tailor in town.

I then proceeded to give him a SIK and he rewarded me with an Nanner Island Portal gem. He also give other items like mastermage faran robes and nanners."

New Quest - Gibbering Claw!

Quest Details: Gibbering Claw

A report from Lissette of FF: "Killed a Virindi Ajudicator and he dropped a different looking gem. On closer inspection it was inscribed with some instructions to use the gem to summon a portal. It also said something about the director wanting a report on the last remaining subject. Use the gem and portal into a dungeon with a variety of creatures, virindi, hollow minions, drudges and tuskers. Exploring we found a pit that dropped to another level. Further exploration on that level led us to a ramp leading down. Soon we found another very deep pit (I would recommend a gem to make sure no bludge vuln is on you). Dropping into the pit we found a creature made up of various different creatures called the gibberling. Killing him was fairly easy and yielded a gibberling claw. crushing blow, biting strike 10-20 acid UA +8% attack, + 11% melee, 350 UA to weild, misc. so-so spells on it. The creature has a 3 min respawn and the claw has no timer (we picked up two each). Also there is a runed chest in there on a one week timer, not locked."

Thanks to Super saiyan Gohun of SC & Deven-Kenyon SC for pic below!

New Quest - Dark Towers

Quest Details - Dark Towers

Mr Adventure aka Yaroz of MT reports: "While I was running along the bottom edge of the Black Hills, something tripped off, saying that it was not recognized. I came to find Consumed Wraith, Shadow Nightmares and a Shadow Nightmare Leader on top of a hill. I could not pull them down, because level 7’s were too short of range to reach them. The coords were around 67.5S, 76.5S and 68.1W, 77W."

To reach the Dark Towers you must find a gem portal gem off a Shadow Spectre or a Phantom Shadow. You'll encounter high level Grievvers and Shadows, including the Nightmare Leader and a Shadow Phantom Leader, plus a high level Runed Chest! Thanks also to Oz al-Magnus & David a Doom of SC!

Forbidden Catacombs!

Quest Details: Forbidden Catacombs
Rumor: Forbidden Note

Mirken of TD reports: "Hey, I bought a note from Bael Zharon and it gave me a hint to give the margul a shadow gem. So I gave him a shadow fragment and it let me in Forbidden Catacombs. There are many high level monsters and there are 4 big red chests on the bottom that need keys. We searched all over the 2nd time through after we found out we needed keys. We hopped down too soon and left 1 pit that we didn't search. Still didn't find keys." Thanks also to Jalum of MT!

You give Guardian of the Forbidden Shadow Fragment.
Guardian of the Forbidden tells you, "A symbol of the Shadow -- you may enter."
Mirken has entered the Forbidden Catacombs.

Mirken sends another report: "We found one key off a drudge bloodletter on the 1st jump down. We think it may be a random spawn on all the monsters there since we can't find a boss creature. The chest was filled with 10-15 pieces sing quality loot. Nothing was worthy of picking up. We continued to kill drudges/golems in the chest room for about 2 hours and no trace of another key."

New Quest - Large Golden Coin!

Quest Details: Curse of the Golden Coin

Nyx Smith of MT reports: "I found a gold hill portal gem on a scalvus and it sent me to a hill near Danby's Outpost with bunch of scalvus and a large gold coin."

Damien Sarin of FF adds: "The gem drops off a Chomu Sclavus. It drops you on a hill with some ruins at 21.2n 12.6w, which is a bit east of Danby's Outpost. A bunch of different size/level sclavus in the ruins. Also, a runed chest. The coin is on a 30 second timer , laying on the ground near some rubble. The coin seems to be one time only ever. You get the "You've completed this quest too many times" message if you try to pick up a second one."

A small green snake which is coiled around the coin grips it covetously and flicks its tongue at you.
The snake wraps itself around your fingers, preventing you from dropping the coin.
My coin will not fulfill the ache of wretched greed.
My curse on those who take my coin and mistake that ache with need
The snake releases its grip on your fingers as you slip the coin back into your backpack.
Do not forget that you are bound to this coin as much as I am.
The snake wraps itself around your fingers, preventing you from dropping the coin.
"You cannot discard my curse so easily. You are charged with a mission to help those in need and I will see that you fulfill it."

Sek the Wise of MT solves the curse! He reports: "Well as any good Sho should know about their history, I so noted the story of
the greedy king and the golden pillar in the Heb library. As any truly kind person would know the curse of greed can only be stopped by a selfless act. The poor beggars of Dryreach need whatever they can get to feed themselves.

You give Dinsmal the Beggar Large Golden Coin.
Dinsmal the Beggar tells you, "Thank you stranger! I can get a good meal and a hot bath with this!"
The snake sighs and uncoils from the coin.
"You have lifted the curse. Finally, I may rest." The small snake coils in
on itself biting its tail.
Dinsmal the Beggar gives you Serpent Ring.
Dinsmal the Beggar tells you, "Here, a small token of my gratitude."
Dinsmal the Beggar gives you Philanthropist Title Token.
