This is the first task in a series of 12. It begins with Ciodaru who may be found at -585, +1135, in Goru'kar Mesa.

You say, 'Hail, Ciodaru'

Ciodaru says 'Well hello good traveler. It is a [fine day] is it not?'

You say, 'Fine day?'

Ciodaru says 'The weather itself is not important. It is the [love] of a fine nymph that makes life so worthy.'

You say, 'Love?'

Ciodaru says 'Well it is true; I have not asked her if she returns the love I have for her, but even just being in love is a fine thing. I can tell that my story inspires you. If you could see your way to being kind to a satyr in love, I would like to have you go ask my love a few [questions].'

You say, 'Questions?'

Ciodaru says 'Yes, some questions. You can find Kathryn at the top of the mesa to the east of here. Try not to be too obvious when you ask these questions.'

You have been assigned the task 'Ciodaru's Love'.

Find out what Kathryn's favorite gemstone is 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'What is your favorite gemstone?'

Kathryn says 'My favorite gemstone? That would have to be an emerald. The green is so brilliant.'

Find out what Kathryn's favorite drink is 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'What is your favorite drink?'

Kathryn says 'Simple cold, pure water is such a relief to drink.'

Find out what Kathryn's favorite food is 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'What is your favorite food?'

Kathryn says 'I have no real need to eat, but one time I tried a roasted acorn that had such interesting extra flavors added to it. I would so like to try that again.'

Find out what Kathryn's favorite color is 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'What is your favorite color?'

Kathryn says 'Just like the emerald, my favorite color is green, but a deep green like the healthiest green of the forest.'

Ciodaru says 'A deep green, like the forest, a dress of that would look splendid on her.'

Tell Ciodaru what Kathryn's favorite scent is 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'Kathryn's favorite smell is of the earth.'

Ciodaru says 'Of course. She is so attuned to the tree, that what a tree loves, so would she.'

Speak with Ciodaru 0/1 (Goru`kar Mesa)

You say, 'Hail, Ciodaru'

Ciodaru says 'Oh thank you traveler! You have helped me so much. I know exactly what do for her. I shall make her a box of gifts. If you would be willing to [help] me I would be very grateful.'

If you plan to do this series I highly suggest you look for the evergreen leaf needed for the fourth gift quest in advance. You will be up there a lot any ways so if your boxing or in a group this will save you a ton of time when you get to that quest.

Just ran this quest series through to final turn in and it appears that the reward has been changed to a Face item instead of the earring. Different options for melee and caster and neither have the click effect.

Melee: Flawed Soldier's Eyepatch
Caster: Flawed Scryer's Facemask
Magnate of the Mesa

This is one of the required series to get 6 Flawed Defiant items given for completion of the whole series. This is definitely not for beginners, as there are combines that involve a few different trade skills in just this series. Each has a trivial of 190, and the cost to get trade skill that high will take more time gathering the supplies. Its ok for an alt of lower level, when all the trade skills can be PLed up. But without the resources there will be a lot of failed combines.

IMHO, its not worth the time and plat to spend on this quest for the rewards of it.

Even though the final reward(Glowing Green Silver Earring of Dragoste) is decent with nice clicky stats boost, you should still consider before doing this quest series.
It takes much time to collect material, and if you don't have appropriate tradeskills you will have to raise them to 190+ before the combining.
Almost all needed stuff must be looted and crafted by yourself, other players cant help you or the quest won't complete.
So, if you don't mind to put a lot of time and effort, then go ahead.

Good for tailoring and jewelcrafting

This took my quite some time but I managed to get a few of my tradeskills way up, and made some decent coin selling the ample faceted lightstones.
Having another toon make the tradeskilled items?

This looks like a great quest for my wee druid, who could really use the charisma boost to help with charming all the friendly animals in TSS zones. It looks like a few of the combines would be possible skillups for my tradeskiller as well, so I'm wondering if you have to do the combine yourself or have the specified vendor do the combine for 10p. If another player can do the combine, it would be a quick chance at a skill up, since you have to gather the ingredients anyways.
I guess I can try it myself, but don't have access to EQ at the moment <cough, cough, work, cough, cough>. If no one else tries this, I'll try and update with this information myself.
Earring rewarded now

Note that at this time you get a Glowing Green Silver Earring of Dragoste without stats or focus effects
KEEP ALL GIFTS YOU USE THEM IN THE END

Don't destroy any of the gifts you will combine them in the end and give them to Kathyrn, the hardest part for me was protect Kathryn again as the Kathryn joined the battle and killed mobs had to redo it a couple of times
