Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'My initial examination of the crystal you brought me is troubling, <name>. We need to learn more, but I require a larger amount to study. 'I have heard tell of more of these fell stones in the Warg camp, Howlers' Notch. Bring me what you find, that we might uncover their secrets.' Background Mother Amma needs more crystals to study. Objective 1 Collect strange crystals (0/12) Howlers' Notch is northwest of Annâk-khurfu. Mother Amma has asked you to collect more of the fell crystals. Objective 2 Talk to Mother Amma Mother Amma is in the forge at Annâk-khurfu, in southern Elderslade. You should bring the crystals to Mother Amma. Mother Amma: 'Ugh. I thought I was accustomed to the stench of these rocks by now, but with so many in one place it is nearly overwhelming. 'Ah, yes. These stones hold even more of the corruption than the first you brought hither. I suppose that explains the... enhanced smell. 'Put them into that chest there, will you? That should help keep the fumes contained while I study each one.' Objective 3 Put the crystals into the chest The chest is located near the forge at Annâk-khurfu. Mother Amma has asked you to place the foul smelling crystals in a chest. Objective 4 Talk to Mother Amma Mother Amma is in the forge at Annâk-khurfu. You should talk to Mother Amma. Mother Amma: 'Whew! Thank you, <name>. That was worse than sour sulfur. 'I shall need some time to examine the crystals you brought. Go now and tell Gunvald to keep his scouts away from these abominations, then return to me.' Objective 5 Talk to Gunvald Gunvald is in Annâk-khurfu. Mother Amma has asked you to pass a message along to Gunvald. Gunvald: 'I was wondering what that smell was. Thank you for the information, <name>. I will let my scouts know to give these crystals a wide berth. Please thank Mother Amma for me.' Objective 6 Return to Mother Amma Mother Amma is in the forge of Annâk-khurfu. Gunvald has asked you to give his thanks to Mother Amma. Mother Amma: 'That Gunvald is a solid rock. Always has the proper amount of courtesy.'
