Introduced during From the Darkness Born.

Royal Emissary Ydnew resides in Yanshi (10.5S, 46.5E) and seeks information about the new alliance between the Burun and the Renegades. Find a series of 11 reports from Niraltah and return them to Ydnew for xp and other rewards! (Xp is equal to 1% of your level for each report - capped at 1.5 million for level 126.)

Timer: 21 Days

Ydnew tells you, "Hail, friend. My name is Ydnew. I have been sent by High Queen Elysa to discuss the frequency with which the Burun have been appearing. Further, I am here to see that we keep close attention on the movements of the Burun and their new allies, the Renegades."
Ydnew tells you, "The events of the past few months has [sic] brought a great deal of consternation into the High Queen's court. Since Rage Lao mistakenly opened the first portals from the world that these creatures came from, we have wondered what they were. We still know very little, but we are confident that we will learn more about them soon."
Ydnew tells you, "In the past few weeks, we have seen a rise in Renegade and Burun activity near the old swamp temple near 25s and 46e."
Ydnew tells you, "I have been given leave to reward adventurers who assist us in finding out as much information as they can about the new relationship that the Renegades have forged with these Burun. Please use caution when approaching the temple. We know that they have enclosed the structure and are busy working towards some other nefarious end as we speak."
Ydnew tells you, "If you begin to become overwhelmed, please retreat. We have no cause for people to needlessly endanger themselves against this threat."

When you head to the swamp temple, you'll find that the Sclavus have been killed, the structure has been enclosed and the Burun have taken up residence! (To reach the temple at 25.5S, 46.3E take the Swamp Temple Place settlement portal from Yanshi at 10.3S, 45.7E.) Two Missives can be found along with a Blueprint in a small camp nearby.

Note: It's reported you can enter the fortress with a very high jump skill.

The missives direct you to a Burun Hold at 24.3S, 46.3E and describe a camouflaged entrance. The Hidden Entrance is a portal disguised in the shape of a large grey rock (Levels 40+).

In each section of the dungeon you'll find some of Niraltah's Reports lying on the ground. Navigating the dungeon is simple as the path is very straightforward throughout. Keep to the center and when you reach a hall with rooms to either side, you'll find the first text in the NE room. Be careful! The Burun and renegade forces will swarm you as you pass through. A second text can be found lying in front of the portal to the second section of the dungeon.

In this second section, keep to the right as you pass through a series of doors all the way down. Once report spawns on the floor in a room not too far from the end. A second report spawns in front of the portal to third section.

Your first report spawns just to the right of the drop. Again keep to the right as you work your way through the dungeon. A second report is found not too far in. When you reach the portal at the end, don't take it yet. Instead, go south down the west side of the dungeon until you find report #7. Then head back to the portal, grab report #8 and head through the portal to the final section.

The final section contains 3 more reports. Again the route through the dungeon is linear. Two of the texts are in rooms off the main hallway. If you hug the left wall all the way down, you'll be sure to find them. Once you have all 11 reports, return to Ydnew in Yanshi for your reward!

Note: the exit portal from the dungeon drops you at 76.8S, 39.9E between Qalaba’r and Kara.

For each report (except the first) you'll be given an experience reward equal to 1% of your level (1.5 million for a level 126 player and 1.095 million for level 113). You'll also receive the items listed to the right!

You allow Ydnew to examine your Report to Niarltah.
Ydnew tells you, "Interesting. This is the preliminary report on what the renegades have been able to learn about the Burun thus far. I'd be interested in and reward you for any further missives."

You give Ydnew Report to Niarltah.
Ydnew tells you, "This will provide us with more information than we currently have. You are to be thanked for your efforts."
Ydnew gives you Guardian's Uniform.
You've earned 1,500,000 experience.
