    This solo task begins with Darius Blythe, who is located at about 390, 3240 on Jardel's Hook in the Buried Sea.

    You say, 'Hail, Darius Blythe'

    Darius Blythe says 'Aye, that's me. I'm Darius. They call me the Entrepreneur, or at least they try to. Most of the bastards around here can't even say Darius properly, much less Entrepreneur. But then, that's why I'm the Entrepreneur and they are just sailors. So, what can I do for you? You're brave enough to land here, so I'm willing to deal with you. Perhaps you're wondering what all of us pirates are doing out here, [dealing with] all of you? Or perhaps you're just looking for some goods that you might not be able to find elsewhere? Or are you one of those adventurers that always seem to need work? If so, I have some [jobs] you can do.'

    You say, 'Dealing with me?'

    Darius Blythe says 'Ah, well, this was my idea, really. We knew that once you landlu. . . er, adventurers heard about the whirlpool you wouldn't be able to stop yerselves from coming to look at it. Now of course you're not welcome anywhere near our strongholds, but I figured if we made a dock for you and set up some shops out here, we might be able to make some money off of you. And I've been proven correct! It also gives me a chance to warn you. Keep yourself to this section of the beach. If any Blacksail finds you wandering about the Hook, you'll be cut down for sure.'

    You say, 'What jobs do you have?'

    Darius Blythe says 'Aye, I have several things that need doing.'

    You are offered three tasks, one of which is 'Fire in the Hold'.

    You have been assigned the task 'Fire in the Hold'.

    Darius has asked you to do a bit of dirty work for him. He would like you to deliver a 'package' for him. The package should be quietly dropped off near the big shark jaw in Jardel's Inn. If you also reduce his competitors salary costs he will be pleased.

    Receive Inflammatory Device.

    Kill 2 Blacksail dockworker (The Buried Sea)

    Dockworkers can be found in Jardel's Inn, the bottom level of the beached ship on Jardel's Hook island.

    Find a good location for the `package' to be dropped (The Buried Sea)

    Stand in the shark jaws in the Inn, and simply drop invisibility to receive the task update. Their is no need to actually do anything with the Inflammatory Device. If you cannot Feign Death or use some other means of escape, it may be wise to clear this part of the Inn first.

    Your shadows fade.
    You place the device in a location that seems suitable.
    Your task 'Fire In The Hold' has been updated.

    Speak with Darius Blythe (The Buried Sea)

    Your faction standing with Blacksail Smugglers got better.

    I would like to contest this quests soloability, or otherwise be prooved wrong.

    ~edit~
    If it's classified as being a Solo-Quest because you do not need to have a full group to get this task, then I guess that's different.

    this quest is easily soloable by a 75 nec. all you have to do is stand at the entance to the ship then walk away from it but keep your self positioned so you can still see the dockworkers.

    snare it then run WWAAYYYY out over the water turn around and fd. once everything is back in the boat the snared one will be standing out side easily kitable.
