You can get 12 words needed for high level Necromancer pet research from the 3 Sisters (X`Ta Tempi, Timpi, and Tompi) in Neriak Foreign Quarter (-10, -45). It is easier to get them though randomly looting creatures than by doing the quests.

X'Ta Tompi is on a rooftop at loc -13, -49, 45.

You say, 'Hail, X`Ta Tompi'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'We three are the [Sisters Dark] - [Necromancy] is our Art - Bonded dead, they serve our will - No beat of heart, yet faithful still.'

You say, 'Sisters Dark'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'We three are the Sisters Dark - Keepers of the shadowed Dread - [Lore of Death], we research now - Join with us and serve [the Dead].'

You say, 'Lore of Death'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'The Lore of Death is shadow bound - Its [words] are [hid], yet shall be found - Through our research into the dark - Old hexes found and parchment marked.'

You say, 'words'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'The Words are hid in tomes of old - Their yielded lore worth more than gold - Though we search both 'fore and 'hind - [Components] we cannot yet find.'

You say, 'Components'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'We need components for research - These are things that you could find - In return for [tasks] that you perform - Words of [reward] we have in mind.'

You say, 'tasks'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'Bring us components for our research - We give [Word]s by tasks performed - [Possession], [Detachment], [Allure], [Haunting], [Rupturing], [Dark Paths], [Suffering], [Collection], [Obligation], [Requisition] and [Acquisition].'

You say, 'Acquisition'

You say, 'I want Words of Acquisition'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'The Words are hid in tomes of old - Their yielded lore worth more than gold - Though we search both 'fore and 'hind - [Components] we cannot yet find.'

You say, 'hid'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'The Words are hid in tomes of old - Their yielded lore worth more than gold - Though we search both 'fore and 'hind - [Components] we cannot yet find.'

You say, 'I want words of Haunting'

X`Ta Tompi says, 'The Words are hid in tomes of old - Their yielded lore worth more than gold - Though we search both 'fore and 'hind - [Components] we cannot yet find.'



X`Ta Tompi says, 'You have quested well - With spell and sword - Accept our thanks - And this reward.'

After they revamped spell research so you no longer need runes, words, and pages, is this quest still valid?

Lol, you may have 200k worth of gear, but you still don't know much about the game if you think you can only get 5pp for them in bazaar. There are many items that might sell for 5 gold to a vendor, but players will pay dearly for, like newb armor quest items. Yes, that's right, some people actually do their newb armor quests and others too. Amazing isn't it?

You should save these words if to do nothing more than to sell them in the bazaar. Words of Allure seem to be fairly hard to find. Would make several people happy and you could make a few plat.

well about the best u are going to get for any word is around 5pp and when u have 200k in items it is not really worth the space in the bag or the time it would take to sell meaning it makes a very good item to give the destroy button some work.
RE: words
# Nov 01 2002 at 3:27 AM Rating: Decent
i m a necro and i would pay like 100pp for these words. The words are used for the lvl 24 pet spell. Do you know how hard it is to solo with an outdated pet? Well I do, so heres some advice. SELL ME THESE WORDS, hehe. But you guys have a good point its not really worth it to hold on to these words, a catch-22 do you think.

charred ruby & pearl

Did these word quests long ago. Was able to finish them all except the ones that require the charred dagger and wand from MM. Still go back occasionally to check but so far no one has ever heard of them. If anyone has ever seen these pls post or hail me in game. Thx much.

Charred Items from Mistmore

The charred gems needed (Ruby and Pearl) are found off undead noble in Bar room of unrest (good luck getting it). I have not found any information on what drops the Charred Wood Wand or Charred Dagger in Mistmoore. I have been there a few times and no one knows. How about you?
#Anonymous, Posted: Oct 12 2000 at 3:46 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) I think I can speak for everyone on this topic. Please people when you know that someone has been camping for a long time, don't pester them about when they are going to leave. Don't sit down next to them to "wait" until they are done. You might be waiting a long time and then the time it takes for you to complete your camp on top of that. The NPC will always respawn and will always be there. Just ask them kindly if they will send you a tell when they are done and 9 times out of 10 they will. These players are tired from camping that long of a period and quite understandably a little grouchy and become extremely nervous at the thought of someone possibly stealing their kill. So, be courteous.

Very well said. It is sad that there are people who think it's clever to KS and who think, "Might is right".
