Quest Text

Bestowal Dialogue '<name>! I hope you have been well. We Gem-cutters are here to help! There may not be much use for rings and bracelets in time of war, but we're plenty resourceful folk; I know I can put my craft-skill to some other use. 'Have you seen the strange shelled creatures that crawl hereabouts? They look a bit like crabs, but they are much larger. Their strange and bulbous eyes fill me with unease, I don't mind telling you. The Orcs call them 'Ukhrâsh'. 'Well, I have had a thought, and that thought is this: perhaps we could use their shells to fashion useful articles for the war effort: shields, armour, who knows what else? But the shells of the small ones aren't thick enough to serve. Fret not! I have caught glimpses of a huge one! Only glimpses. I think it spends most of its time underwater, but I have a feeling that one's shell will be worth its weight in gold! I doubt you'll be able to catch it out in the open, but perhaps you can lure it out with meat from the smaller uhkrâsh in the Pit of Stonejaws. I am hoping the big one is both scavenger and cannibal!' Background Fúsi Gem-cutter has requested your help with an unorthodox plan. Objective 1 Collect foul meat (0/8) You can find foul meat from ukhrâsh throughout the Pit of Stonejaws. Collected foul meat (8/8) Objective 2 Lure out the massive ukhrâsh from its pond north of Bárgstad and collect its chitin You should lure out the massive ukhrâsh from its pond north of Bárgstad. Ideal Bait Location: "Something lurks below the surface of the nearby pond, and might be lured to the surface with suitable bait." The chitin from this beast is massive! Objective 3 Talk to Fúsi Gem-cutter Fúsi is at Bárgstad in the Pit of Stonejaws. Now that you have collected the massive chitin, you should bring it back to Fúsi. You present the massive ukhrâsh shell to Fúsi. Fúsi Gem-cutter: 'My goodness,<name>! What a monster that must have been! I will be able to make something sturdy from this chitin, or my name is not Fúsi Gem-cutter! I mean, this is no gemstone, but my abilities are more wide-ranging than my name would suggest! And so it is with you, my friend. 'Thank you for your help!'
