You can perform this quest at dubious faction standing Paebala. You can alternatively quest Jaled Dar's key through Zlandicar.

You can find Neb deep within the Paebala tunnels in Dragon Necropolis at +473, +760, -161 in the western set of underground tunnels.

You say, 'Hail, Neb'

Neb says 'Chika val na vi Paebala Neb'ri. I am Neb of the Paebala. Aknila sa rik nor valkuta aknila. Start no trouble, there will be no trouble. Nish ala ro tak na re Chetari, skas vena ral. Avoid the Chetari, they will kill you.'

You say, 'paebala'

Neb says, 'Ika woka asa chelaki sa asa Paebala ian raka yi no sa! We are the first to walk on hind feet, to use hands. Toku mala nealopa chelaki wuna saka no Paebala. From rats we come, but the magic of this land, and what we... eat, makes us more, makes us Paebala. Whana so vi re nik ala iva Paebala, so ni valato ut Chetari. The magic breeds true, all ratmen were first from here, even the Chetari...'

You say, 'chetari'

Neb says, 'Rika sa vi na Chetari aga val rak Zlandicar. The Chetari are an evil breed, shaped by Zlandicar. Asila sa vi ne Paebala ika so takina. They enslave the Paebala. Canti ri va ni makata ra Paebala. The Paebala revolted years ago. Mishi ro ka rilla vi ne graka sal ogoo mashan rina, villi rassa rassa ke! They are powerful in the ways of death, but they fear our goo friends, and our teeth are sharp! Rika re rika so malti fe isha kora, Chetari fa rish na Paebala. But the Chetari will not rest until we are all dead or slaves. Villi rassa rassa ke, korta ne riki sa vena. Our teeth are sharp, but we cannot win. Wilta fa unala kisha Zlandicar maka re, villa rasssa, moa Chetari isa rolak. Zlandicar has the sharpest teeth, and the Chetari do his bidding.'

You say, 'goo'

Neb says, 'Unana ogoo Paebala, ni ni ni! Unana ogoo Chetari vi vi vi! The Paebala taste very bad to the goo! The Chetari tast very good to the goo! Moaka sai Slani, ogoo ranta vis Paebala. Thanks to our clever shaman, we teach the goo not to eat us. Ogoo via ranca toka ra to itu. They eat everything else though, even you. Paebala visa ranca so to so to itu ogoo. We would have to feed many of you to the goo to teach them you are bad to eat. Isak to, isak Slani, elasa Paebala ras ogoo so to so to mis. That is what the shaman did, poisoned our dead and fed the goo for years. Makari et ne va mi to mis oh naka? Do you wish to volunteer for this task? Yiyiyiyieh, mita vo Neb'ta! Hahaha, Neb jokes with you!'

You say, 'vaniki'

Neb says, 'Vaniki morka ta, so aka ral faka sa! Vaniki is a witch, she should die! Bantaka se vi rish Zlandicar, bo kal neta Paebala. She was the first to approach Zlandicar, and he made her other than Paebala. Vasu ris oto Chetari, maka so ni inta sla Zlandicar. Out of his boredom, the Chetari were born, they are the toys of Zlandicar.'

You say, 'zlandicar'

Neb says, 'Ika nora drikinava, vaa ria solta drikinava, misa ni vi isa Zlandicar. Zlandicar is the oldest dragon, the evil dragon. Maka drikinava raeli Veeshan, muta ne ri falaka Zlandicar. He is outcast from the other children of Veeshan, for he eats upon their flesh. Ifa no ri ve ala bakari mo drikinavi wo isa maka. This flesh makes him strong, the other dragons fear him and shun him.'

You say, 'i will help you'

Neb says, 'Aakaka! Aakaka! I rejoice! I rejoice! Vala ni veena rika tal, rala vin mo taka, mata nish Vaniki ep Zlandicar! You must be strong, to be here, you perhaps can kill Vaniki and Zlandicar! Moaka sish vanava, Neb'ri anta Paebala tu pa sil ro mitika! Do this thing, and prove it, and I Neb, and all of the Paebala, shall reward you!'

Bring him two items in return for the key to Jaled Dar's lair:
-Vaniki's Heart, dropped off Vaniki in the Chetari tunnels near Zlandicar's lair (she has various PH)
-Zlandicar's Heart, dropped off Zlandicar in the round room at the end of the tunnel on the south of map.


Neb says 'Ika Paebala ma ri skasha, Neb`ri mi re skashi! The Paebala are joyful, Neb is joyful! Misu na tona Vaniki esa Zlandicar, no re Paebala soka mora Chetari, ika tu. With the death of Vaniki and Zlandicar, the Paebala can conquer the Chetari, and rule! Mika na so kaka rika, ug boro Neb`ri, ek val Vaniki ushta. Take this, it is Neb's fighting bone, and here, this key I took from Vaniki.'

Your faction standing with Paebala has been adjusted by 100.
Your faction standing with Zlandicar has been adjusted by -10.
Your faction standing with Chetari has been adjusted by -10.
You gain experience!!

You receive Jaled Dar's Tomb Key (key to Jaled Dar's lair) and Neb's Warbone.

I recommend going the Zlandicar route

I recommend getting the key to Jaled Dar's Lair via Zlandicar rather then going through Neb.

Here's why...

If you go through Neb then you have to kill Zlandicar and Vaniki.

Killing Zlandicar is easy enough as he's up every few days.

Vaniki on the other hand can be a nightmare. Vaniki is said to spawn every 5 days (122 hours) and someone else may kill him at some unknown time when you're not in the zone thereby turning 5 days into 10 days or more. Who has time for this???

If you go through Zlandicar you only need to kill Neb. I'm not sure what Neb's timer is, but I've seen him up 3x while looking for Vaniki.

The only tricky part about going through Zlandicar is you have to have decent faction with him (I was apprehensive). To get that, go to the area where Neb spawns and kill all the Paebala mobs (including Neb if you see him). It's a small area so it takes a while, but it does not take as long as it may take you to find Vaniki up, and while you're there, you may run into Neb who you need to kill for his heart.

Once I had Neb's heart and apprehensive faction with Zlandicar, I went to Zlandicar and handed him Neb's heart. For some reason Zlandicar would not answer me when I hailed him, but when I gave him Neb's heart he still gave me Jaled Dar's key.

This is great advice.

As someone who has already been through the pain and tribulations of camping Vaniki for the Hunter's achievements, I almost wept when I saw that I should have looted his heart months ago.

Killing Paebella's may be slow and arduous but it is something you can work toward, rather than turning up at random in DN to see if Vaniki is up.

"You can perform this quest at dubious faction standing (with which faction?)."
with Paebala.

"You can find Neb deep within the Paebala tunnels in Dragon Necropolis (/loc?)."
Neb is located at 473, 760, -161 in the western set of underground tunnels.

You say, 'paebala'
Neb says, 'Ika woka asa chelaki sa asa Paebala ian raka yi no sa! We are the first to walk on hind feet, to use hands. Toku mala nealopa chelaki wuna saka no Paebala.

Wilta fa unala kisha Zlandicar maka re, villa rasssa, moa Chetari isa rolak. Zlandicar has the sharpest teeth, and the Chetari do his bidding.'

She was the first to approach Zlandicar, and he made her other than Paebala. Vasu ris oto Chetari, maka so ni inta sla Zlandicar. Out of his boredom, the Chetari were born, they are the toys of Zlandicar.'

You say, 'zlandicar'

Moaka sish vanava, Neb'ri anta Paebala tu pa sil ro mitika! Do this thing, and prove it, and I Neb, and all of the Paebala, shall reward you!'

zlandi and chetari were both max negative so I don't know how much those were.

I handed in vaniki heart from one toon and then zlandi heart from this toon 10 minutes later ( had to run from guild hall)

For those who might be interested in this sort of thing, here is a more complete version of the quest dialogs. [None of it is required to do the turn in and get the key.]

=============================

You say, 'Hail, Neb'

Neb says 'Chika val na vi Paebala Neb'ri. I am Neb of the Paebala. Aknila sa rik nor valkuta aknila. Start no trouble, there will be no trouble. Nish ala ro tak na re Chetari, skas vena ral. Avoid the Chetari, they will kill you.'

You say, 'Who are the Chetari?'

Neb says 'Rika sa vi na Chetari aga val rak Zlandicar. The Chetari are an evil breed, shaped by Zlandicar. Asila sa vi ne Paebala ika so takina. They enslave the Paebala. Canti ri va ni makata ra Paebala. The Paebala revolted years ago. Mishi ro ka rilla vi ne graka sal ogoo mashan rina, villi rassa rassa ke! They are powerful in the ways of death, but they fear our goo friends, and our teeth are sharp! Rika re rika so malti fe isha kora, Chetari fa rish na Paebala. But the Chetari will not rest until we are all dead or slaves. Villi rassa rassa ke, korta ne riki sa vena. Our teeth are sharp, but we can not win. Wilta fa unala kisha Zlandicar maka re, villa rasssa, moa Chetari isa rolak. Zlandicar has the sharpest teeth, and the Chetari do his bidding.'

You say, 'Who is Zlandicar?'

Neb says 'Ika nora drikinava, vaa ria solta drikinava, misa ni vi isa Zlandicar. Zlandicar is the oldest dragon, the evil dragon. Maka drikinava raeli Veeshan, muta ne ri falaka Zlandicar. He is outcast from the other children of Veeshan, for he eats upon their flesh. Ifa no ri ve ala bakari mo drikinavi wo isa maka. This flesh makes him strong, the other dragons fear him and shun him.'

You say, 'I will help you.'

Neb says 'Aakaka! Aakaka! I rejoice! I rejoice! Vala ni veena rika tal, rala vin mo taka, mata nish Vaniki ep Zlandicar! You must be strong, to be here, you perhaps can kill Vaniki and Zlandicar! Moaka sish vanava, Neb'ri anta Paebala tu pa sil ro mitika! Do this thing, and prove it, and I Neb, and all of the Paebala, shall reward you!'

You say, 'Who is Vaniki?'

Neb says 'Vaniki morka ta, so aka ral faka sa! Vaniki is a witch, she should die! Bantaka se vi rish Zlandicar, bo kal neta Paebala. She was the first to approach Zlandicar, and he made her other than Paebala. Vasu ris oto Chetari, maka so ni inta sla Zlandicar. Out of his boredom, the Chetari were born, they are the toys of Zlandicar.'

[Collect both Vaniki's & Zlandicar's hearts. Turn in to Neb. (Dubious or better faction may be required. I did it at amiably.)]

Neb says 'Ika Paebala ma ri skasha, Neb`ri mi re skashi! The Paebala are joyful, Neb is joyful! Misu na tona Vaniki esa Zlandicar, no re Paebala soka mora Chetari, ika tu. With the death of Vaniki and Zlandicar, the Paebala can conquer the Chetari, and rule! Mika na so kaka rika, ug boro Neb`ri, ek val Vaniki ushta. Take this, it is Neb's fighting bone, and here, this key I took from Vaniki.'
Neb turn in.

Neb is immune to Mez & Charm and will see thru Hide/Sneak if using rogue shrouds. If you're Scowling or Threatening he will agro from a long ways off. Minimum requred is definitely dubious to turn in :) (note-- if you haven't killed any Paebala, you start as dubious... so don't kill the lil beggars :)

for completeness sake--

(dubious+ required)

Your faction standing with Paebala got better.
Your faction standing with Zlandicar got worse.
Your faction standing with Chetari got worse.
You gain experience!!



*unrelated note-- if you drop anything on the ground near Neb, he will steal it :P
Neb says 'Va va risaha ma! Kiyiyiya! Look at this on the ground! Mine!'

I did this turn in at almost the lowest dubious I could be today, and I got the key and warbone as the reward. I checked my faction after the turn-in and I was still dubious. Hope this helps.

Just thought I'd point out since I didn't see it listed here that you can turn in Vaniki and Zlandicar's hearts at dubious faction to Paebala.

Killed Vaniki for a Willsapper, didn't feel like factioning up, so snagged a Zlandicar heart and did the turnin ;)

Edit - Turning in the hearts bumped me up to apprehensive to Paebala, so it could require high dubious, really don't know!

Got the Key at Indifferent Faction

I just want to say what faction I had when I got the key from Zlandicar for turning in Neb's Head. It was INDIFFERENT. Not Ally, not Warmly, not Kindly, not even Amiable. Purely INDIFFERENT faction. High or low, I don't know. I do know that I now have a key to Jaled Dar's tomb and won't have to waste a ton of time factioning up like the horror stories I've heard. Best thing to do is just walk up to Zlandicar (assuming you've never killed him) if you can get past the Chetari's and hail him, then ask "Who is Neb?". If he gives the quest, he'll probably give you the key for offing Neb and turning in his head.

*Edit* And best part is, I didn't have to waste 40k on Zlandicar's Heart and then try and kill off Vaniki as well. Zeb's a simple melee with no spells, no super life taps, and much easier to reach given you're dubious to Paeballa's at the start.

You've got to be kidding me?

Take a look at Zlandicar's version. All you need to do is kill Neb and give in the useless head.

To do this version, you have to kill Zlandicar and turn in his heart??? That thing sells for so much money it's not even funny, and is one helluva kickass item for Necros, and we have to give it away for a key?

Damn.

Why not have a quest where you can turn in your epic for 5pp and a wedgy?
RE: Joke?
# Dec 11 2003 at 6:46 PM Rating: Decent
I'd rather turn in Zlandicar's Heart than work up my Zlandicar faction for a month. And, the heart doesn't sell for THAT much money. If I really wanted the key, I'd be happy with getting the heart off Zlandi and turning it in instead of wasting my life factioning up. Unless Paebala give very signifigant faction hits which I am sure we both know isn't the case. hehe

And, to be honest, it really isn't that good for necros these days. Sure it has 20 int, 5 regen and soso saves but that's it. A single stamina. No raw mana. You can get pretty good regen augments from LDoN for cheap. I don't even bag this thing. I sold mine a long time ago. Even before LDoN. Just isn't worth the stat loss and the money you get from it > saving a minute the one time a week, or less, you have to regen while FD.
RE: Joke?
# Dec 27 2003 at 7:48 PM Rating: Decent
I'd rather sell Zlandicar's Heart for 30-40K (Vazaelle) and hire a rogue with a 210+ lockpick skill to open the door. Heck, for 40K you might be able to hire two rogues. Or, better yet, get a guildie or a friend to do it for free.

Warbone
# Aug 16 2003 at 11:28 PM Rating: Decent
That Warbone's a great little toy. Especially when you're raiding a mob that's large in size, like a dragon. One proc and the raid goes NUTS cause your big mob is suddenly a decaying skellie. Course the melee range goes to nothing.
