Sandak may be found in the Wall of Slaughter (/loc -695, -1295).

You say, 'Hail, Sandak'

Sandak says 'Greetings stranger, I have heard of your efforts on behalf of my people. It has been long since anyone, dragorn included, has stood against the Muramites. I once was a great warrior myself. I fought in the battles with the Legions of Mata Muram as the flooded into Kuua. I lost many [friends] in those battles, and have since seen [mementos] of my childhood destroyed and left in ruins.'

You say, 'What friends?'

Sandak says 'While I lost many comrades-in-arms, there was one in particular that I regret losing most. His name was Zakariv. We were very close from the first days of our training through the time of The Darkening. It was then, when the dragorn people began turning upon each other that Zakariv and I began to argue. The arguments were small differences in opinion at first, fights over which direction the feran we were tracking went or where to camp the night. All too quickly these arguments degenerated into brawls between the two of us. It wasn't long before we had our [final disagreement].'

You say, 'What final disagreement?'

Sandak says 'With the coming of the Legion of Mata Muram, Zakariv fell in with a group of dragorn who saw the legion as a chance to achieve greater glory and power. He urged me to join them and drew his sword when I refused his offer. Rather than fight my friend I turned my back and walked away. That was the last I saw of him until that fateful day at the [portal].'

You say, 'What portal?'

Sandak says 'I believe it was a portal into your world, stranger. We had made an agreement with the riftseekers to close that portal in an attempt to defy and weaken the Muramites. I had joined with Rurof the Negotiator and his army. We marched to the portal and took the Muramites by surprise. I fought for several hours before becoming grievously wounded by a kyv arrow. As I stumbled out of the battle to tend my wound, I glimpsed Zakariv for just a moment in a thick cluster of fighting seeming to just be struggling to stay alive. I was only able to see him for a moment before the bloody mobs swept him from my view. Shortly after I had left the site of the battle there was a horrendous [explosion].'

You say, 'What explosion?'

Sandak says 'The explosion came from the portal and was caused by the traitorous riftseekers. It ripped through the battlefield without discrimination, destroying much of Rurof's forces along with a great many Muramites. Still, the price was too high. I have not had the strength to fight the legion since then, though I mourn the loss of my friend and deeply regret that I was unable to make amends before his death. Perhaps if I were able to retrieve his [sword] I could do proper honor to his memory.'

You say, 'What sword?'

Sandak says 'Zakariv's sword was a work of art, not only beautiful to see, but deadly in battle. I've heard of shattered relics from that battle turning up where scavengers have left them. If you could search for Zakariv's sword or at least the pieces of it and return them to me I'm sure I could find some way to reward you.'

All four pieces are rare drops from various murkgliders in Nobles' Causeway.

Sandak says 'This... this is amazing. I never thought to have anything to remember Zakariv by. Thank you for returning these pieces to me. I will have them reforged and once again this weapon will be amazing to behold! Here, take this cloak as a reward. It was one that I wore in my days as a warrior. Perhaps some of the enchantments on it will still prove useful.'

Your faction standing with Dranik Loyalists got better.
Your faction standing with Overlord Mata Muram got worse.
You gain experience!!

Melee and hybrid classes receive a Cloak of the Dragorn Militia. Priest and caster classes receive a Woven Cape of the Militia.

If you try to give him the tip and the two halves (but not the hilt) it gets returned to you with a message that you must turn in all the pieces of the quest.

I've never seen that message before, but it appears it has been anti-MQed.

I still need to get the hilt and then I will try again. Not sure if I can with Kos faction, but I can confirm he did not attack me despite being KOS to him.

I have "A bent half of a dragorn sword", "a shattered half of a dragorn sword", "a broken sword tip" and a "ornate sword hilt". All from "a murkglider" in Nobles Causeway. Anyone know what faction i need for this guy so i can do the quest?

when we hunt elites in WoS is when i notice the jumps in faction for all those KOS non-agro dragorn all around Omens. you get 3 or 4 + hits for killing them but factor in the same hits for other mobs in WoS (killing lots of them) i think Dranik Loyalists is the one you need, out of all the mobs i hunt regularly Elites are the only ones that up Loyalists and i see the faction go up after long hunts killing them.
sword pieces
