Town Crier tells you, "News! Travelers report that the Virindi have established a new outpost in southern Osteth! This can mean nothing good..." 

During A Reign of Stone the renegade Virindi faction, who had recently overtaken the town of Ayan Baqur, established a Consulate in the desert under orders from the mysterious Speaker for the New Directive in order to negotiate with the Grotok, the renegade Lugian faction in control of the chorizite mines.

Inside the Gredaline Consulate you'll find three Virindi Legates carrying scrolls and an Envoy carrying a Shard. All four items can be translated in Zaikhal for new spells and lore.

The Gredaline Villas settlement portal in Qalaba'r at 74.8S, 17.8E offers a quick shortcut to the Gredaline Consulate. You'll exit at 60.1S, 32.1E, just a short run to the entrance at 61.6S, 29.3E (restricted to Levels 25+).

When you enter, you'll be standing on a raised platform. There are four paths out of this room: East, West, North and South. The East, West and North corridors lead to the Legates who each drop a scroll. The South path leads to the Envoy's Chamber where you'll find Cazamal the Envoy. Cazamal drops the Obsidian Shard. If you can snag some level VI or VII buffs, you should be able to complete the dungeon in one cycle. The Gredaline Consulate also makes a great vitae burner dungeon for players in their 30s.

East - Nelamar's War Magic Scroll
The first three arms of the Consulate are linear. Don't take any side passages and just head straight to the end. On the east arm you'll first encounter 2 Drudge Stalkers and a Lurker, then a Pristine Doll. After your first ramp, you'll find 5 or so more Stalkers, then after another ramp, even more Stalkers. The Final room where Nelamar the Legate waits has 2 Innocent Dolls and a Virindi Puppet. All four named Virindi are Level 69 with the same stats and attacks as a Virindi Master. Nelamar the Legate drops Nelamar's War Magic Scroll which can be translated into the Dark Flame spell. Respawn for all four Virindi is approximately 3 minutes.

West - Esard's Life Magic Scroll
Again you'll face Drudges and and Dolls in the West passage. Initially, you'll be facing 2 Lurkers and a Stalker. Then more Stalkers as you head down the ramps. Keep heading straight and you'll reach a large open room with 3 Innocuous Dolls. The west corridor at the opposite end of the room leads to more ramps which take you to the final room. Esard the Legate, guarded by 2 Drudge Stalkers, drops Esard's Life Magic Scroll. The scroll can be translated in Ziakhal for the Arcane Restoration spell.

North - Geraux's Life Magic Scroll
Like the East and West arms, the North corridor is also full of Dolls and Drudges. The first group you'll encounter is 3 Lurkers, then 3 Stalkers. Keep heading north past the 3 Pristine Dolls and the Virindi Servant until you reach the final room. Geraux the Legate is accompanied by 2 Pristine Dolls and a Virindi Puppet. Geraux's Life Magic Scroll can be translated by Diyas al-Yat in Ziakhal for the Unnatural Persistence spell.

South - Virindi Envoy's Obsidian Shard
The South passage ends with a portal to the Virindi Envoy's Chamber. You'll first head through a long narrow corridor blocked by Drudge Stalkers. If you suffer from claustrophobia, you'll hate this part! The ceilings are very low. At the end of the passage you'll enter a large open room with 2 Drudge Stalkers, 2 Virindi Servants and the portal to the Envoy's Chamber (restricted to Levels 25+).

The drop into the Envoy's Chamber is safe. Your first challenge will be a group of 4 Drudge Raveners in the second room. When you reach your first intersection, make a right heading north, then continue to hug the right wall around a few bends until you reach a large square room. You'll be attacked by more Raveners. Some may even jump down from ledges above! In addition to the Drudges, you may also face a few Tusker Guards and a Virindi Servant. From here, you'll take the north exit out of the room, then follow the pattern of the previous three arms by heading straight at all times until the end. You'll pass more Tusker Guards, Raveners, and a Virindi Master. Cazamal the Envoy is guarded by 2 Sotiris Hollow Minions and drops the Virindi Envoy's Obsidian Shard.

Take the Scrolls and Shard to Diyas al-Yat in Zaikhal for translation.

Diyas al-Yat tells you, "Hello! I am studying those most enigmatic beings, the Virindi. I think I can translate their language. Do not ask me how I acquired such knowledge."
Diyas al-Yat tells you, "I've been told the Virindi have a new set of outposts in the southern mountain area. So it seems they are beginning to move into Osteth..."

You give Diyas al-Yat [scroll].
Diyas al-Yat tells you, "What's this, then? This writing... I... what's happening?"
Diyas al-Yat shivers as he turns, and his eyes glow for just an instant with a purplish light.
Diyas al-Yat tells you, "What... happened?"

You give Diyas al-Yat Virindi Envoy's Obsidian Shard.
Diyas al-Yat tells you, "This is a new one... they have some sort of emissary in southern Osteth now?"
Diyas al-Yat gives you Translated Virindi Envoy's Note.
