You say, 'Hail, Jin Master Sergug'

Jin Master Sergug says 'Welcome back, young Jin. I hope your training is going well. Unfortunately, I have been unable to keep up to date on your progress, but should you need advanced training in any individual skills, for I am never too busy to enlighten one of my kin. You may have chosen a life of adventure, a life that will take you far from our home, but never forget your duty to your blood. The Guktan Army needs your growing powers. To remind you of this and school you in the way of our people, I will tell you something of [this place].'

You say, 'Tell me of this place.'

Jin Master Sergug says 'The fetid land we now live on of holds many evils. Trolls and other evil ilk still wander the Innothule Swamp, ready to feast on Froglok flesh. Their allies, the ogres, infest the Feerrott to the south, vying with the cursed Lizard men in a lasting contest of evil. Our lands stand distant from the other good races, separated by wastelands and deserts. Our army is our only defense. But that is enough. I am the teacher of young [froglok wizards].'

You say, 'I am a froglok wizard.'

Jin Master Sergug says 'That is your path? Good. Then we must begin immediately for time is short. The arcane path ahead of you is fraught with dangers, many of them of your own making. I will guide you as I can, so [listen well].'

You say, 'I listen well.'

Jin Master Sergug says 'This Arcane Crucible will allow you to combine [various components] to form a basic magical mesh. This mesh, when combined with the proper mold and worked in a forge, will allow you to create your own Armor of the Jin Initiate.'

You say, 'Which various components?'

Jin Master Sergug says 'These are not the usual components used in spells. Look instead in Innothule Swamp for your pieces. The many enemies and vermin that stalk that bog hold items which are only trash to others. But to you they will eventually become treasures. When you are ready to attempt making your armor, return and tell me what you [wish] to make and I will instruct you. I can teach you the recipes and give you the proper molds for the Armor of the Jin Initiate [Headband], [Vestment], [Armwraps], [Bracer], [Handwraps], [Leggings], and [Sandals].'

You say, 'What vestment?'

Jin Master Sergug says 'The true mark of an initiate and a banner to the world of our growing might. To make it you'll need a Pristine Bull Alligator Hide, Bull Alligator Spines, a Giant Moccasin Eye and some Spiderling Silk. When you have the proper basic mesh in hand, take it to a forge along with this mold to finish your Vestment of the Jin Initiate. There is a [final lesson] you must learn.'

You say, 'What final lesson?'

Jin Master Sergug looks somewhat startled at the sight of the figure standing nearby, however, continues in conversation with Narom.

Jin Master Sergug says 'It is said, with power must come mercy or only tyranny can result. Well there is one in need of mercy, the mercy of death. A former student of mine, Initiate Xabbis, tried his skills against the ghouls of the swamp. But he only became one himself. Now, he wanders near the broken tower, his soul a toy for the evil gods. I beg you, go free him. Go . . .[slay him].'

You say, 'I will slay him.'

Jin Master Sergug appears to be intently concentrating on the topics at hand, soon gaining an understanding of the topic being discussed, and continues in conversation with Narom.

Jin Master Sergug says 'Yes. It is the only way now. But once he has fallen, look in his possessions and see if you can find a Tattered Codex. It was my last gift to him. Return it to me along with two Burly Kobold Ears and a Larvae Skin and I shall use my own crucible to repair it. You are certainly worthy of it.'

Need hand-in dialogues, faction hits if any, /loc of quest mobs.

Larvae Skin

Anyone found what drops the Larvae skin??

The Burly Kobold Ears are common drops and can be vendor mined very cheaply.

Getting the tattered codex may take a bit as there are plenty of Mobs around Initiate Xabbis that respawn pretty regularly. But he can be taken pretty easily. And there always seems to be someone killing him for experience who doesn't need the codex. So keep an ear open for OOC's giving the loc of his corpse. I was lucky and got mine this way.

Just need to find the incredibly elusive larvae skin.
