Riordin Nightbane tells you, "The final statue requested, wonderful. With these three statues, my colleagues should be able to figure out what those shadows and their Raven Hand helpers are up to in the Valley. These three should hold them for a while, about a week if I had to guess. If you find any more of these statues before then, however, I'll pay you in good, old fashioned Trade Notes for them."

Tanada House of Earth!

Paul Mua'dib of HG reports: "Hey Maggie! Stumbed accross this dungeon (Tanada House of Earth) while hunting for Ninjas with Dakmor! Its located at 66.3N, 7.6E and is level 80+ restricted. I couldn't enter because you 'must complete a quest' to enter, but I thought it might help anyway!"

 

Tanada's Clan Master's Medallion!

Dakmor Kavu of HG reports: "Hey Maggie! Love the site! Here's some info from the new patch I thought might help you and your fans!

Upon talking to a town crier it was hinted that new ninjas could be found in the northern and southern mountain ranges. So preparing my acid weapon, I headed off to the northern mountains via a trip to Bandit Castle. After an excruciating 2 minutes of searching I located a pack of 3 ninjas consisting of an: Acolyte of Storm, Acolyte of Wind, Acolyte of Breath (all level 115 humans). After killing them all, it spawned another Acolyte of Wind, as well as a Master of Wind (also level 115). The master had a Tanada Clan Master's Medallion on him which instructed me that I could locate who to give it to in either Yanshi or Shoushi. I chose to go to Yanshi and located Ookami Kiri in the upper level of the bar. He took the necklace willingly in exchange for 1,386,393 xp (at level 275). There may be other kinds of Acolytes and Masters as well, but I've yet to find any of them."

You give Ookami Kiri Tanada Clan Master's Medallion.
Ookami Kiri tells you, "This is a fascinating medallion. I will gladly reward you for such that you find. I have friends interested in such antiquities. Here is your reward."

Pedestal Orbs!

Kalazar of SC reports (with help from Shiftie): "Western Pedastal quest. Go to Holtburg settlements and to the New Coiler Mine (40.3N 35.1E). Once in it's a short run to 67.4N, 30.5E. Talk to Hashino Kei, then proceee to use one of the three new pedestals. They are level restricted. I was level 235 and used the western one. A level 230 melee couldn't open the portal said his item magic was too low; mine was 406. Once inside fight through Sclavus and Falatacot and watch out for traps. Also there will be frost on the ground that deals damage. At the end of the dungeon get a Magical Orb and a Shard, then use the shard on the pedestal and then use the orb on the pedestal. (Give them to the pedastal.)"

Hoshino Kei tells you,"Greetings. My master has asked me to assist Prince Borlean with a ritual to open a portal to Bur. However, I have encountered difficulties."
Hoshino Kei tells you,"The orbs that I set upon the three pedestals in this area were stolen by the Falatacdot."
Hoshino Kei tells you,"I need assistance to repair the damage done by the Falatacot. But only one skilled in Item Enchantment will be able to open portals to where the Falatacot have retreated."
Hoshino Kei tells you,"The Falatacot stole the orb from the northern pedestal. It needs to be retrieved."
Hoshino Kei tells you,"The eastern pedestal's orb, meanwhile, has gone missing in a different location. It too should be returned before we perform the ritual."
Hoshino Kei tells you,"Finally, the western pedestal's rob must be returned, and the pedestal repaired."
