Hand her the Pouch of Mail (Highpass).

Lislia Goldtune says 'Mail from the coast - very good! Please take this gold for your troubles. If you are interested in more work, just ask.'
Your faction standing with League of Antonican Bards got better.
Your faction standing with Knights of Truth got better.
Your faction standing with Guards of Qeynos got better.
Your faction standing with Ring of Scale got worse.
Your faction standing with Mayong Mistmoore got worse.
You gain experience!!

The Rivervale Diversion
# Sep 17 2003 at 4:45 PM Rating: Decent
My Level 5 Halfling Druid and stumbled on this one by accident.

I had decided to get my sould bound inside of Revervale instead of always poping out in the thicket after being killed. So I went in search of the soul binder. After finding him and getting my soul bound I noticed the Human NPC standing out like a sore thumb in Rivervale, so I went over and hailed her. Lo and behold she asked me to deliver some mail to Freeport. Being an amiable Hobbit I agreed and set off for the Knowledge Gate.
Run across PoK to the Freeport gate zip thru W Freeport and on to the Bard Guild in NFreep. 9gp +exp! Wow, that was easy. So what happens if I hail Felisity?
Talk to Ton says she.
I hail Ton. He asks if I want to deliver mail to Highkeep or Kelethin. not knowing my way to or around Highkeep I choose Kelethin.
I make the run to Kelethin and get 9gp from Idia. Detecting a patern here I hail her after getting the gold.
As suspected she has a package for Felisity.
Off to Freeport goes I. (Being a frugal Halfing Caeil is never one to turn down an easy 9gp)
Once back in Freeport, Caeil discovers that the mail from Kelethis fetches 12gp! He stops and thinks a bit. If I makes a detour to Rivervale I can pick up the letter from Silna, THEN go to Kelethin and deliver the mail from Freeport and pick up another package to Freeport I can make 30gp (12 + 9 from Felsity and 9 from Idia) per trip not to mention the exp!

So, the rest of the night it's Pick up the mail in Freeport, gate to Rivervale, pick up the mail, Knowledge Gate to Kelethin, Exchange mail, Knowledge Gate to Freeport Exchange Mail, gate to Rivervale, rinse, repeat.

Stopping occaisionally along the way to hunt and loot in Misty Thicket, G Faydark and outside W Freeport.

So now my Level 5 Druid with 6 gp is a Level 7 Druid with 40pp and lots o' kool stuff for a Level 7!

Great quest!

This is actually a very good quest with PoP, as some have said. I found that it was better than fighting in the newbie zone.

The trick is to bind in Plane of Knowledge. Only do the deliveries between Kelethin and Freeport. Once you've made your delivery and picked up your next package, attack a guard or jump off the bridge. You'll find yourself in PoK, very close to the portals, which cuts down on running time.

This gives you very good experience until level 4, (much better than you would get fighting unless you're very twinked), and a lot of money! I had about 12pp by the time I dinged level 4, which is great, especially for casters who often cannot afford their spells.
give pouches to felisity starbright
# Jun 09 2003 at 11:05 AM Rating: Decent
give the pouch to felisty and you will get money, all the stuff your saying is ********
Easy money and EXP
# Dec 31 2002 at 11:20 AM Rating: Excellent
This quest is one of the easiest to carry out, but only if you have PoP.
Go to the bard guild in Freeport.
Take the mail delivery for Kelethin.
Run to the PoP book just outside Freeport.
Go up to PoP.
Run to the kelethin book in PoP.
Down to Kelethin.
Deliver mail and pick up mail for Freeport.
Reverse order to deliver mail to Freeport.

Repeat as often as you want.

Earns about 21gp in 5 mins with no danger and good exp for a low level char.
No this quest doesn't suck

I just started an enchanter on the Fironia Vie server. And let me tell you, this quest is the ONLY way i was able to afford any spells. Getting 5 copper for ruined wolf pelts doesn't pay for 4pp spells. Although i started in Freeport, i made my way over to butcherblock to do this quest. As soon as you get off the boat there is a bard to the left. She asks you to deliver a letter to kelethin. Then, on your way, stop by felwithe, there is another bard there also with a letter to kelethin. Take them both to Kelethin bard guild (sorry i don't remember the names of the NPCs) get your money, rinse and repeat. Made more than enough to buy my level 1-8 spells this way.. sure it took some time.. but you can't expect money to be handed to you.

Well, I find that doing the quests has forced me (encouraged?) to learn new towns and get out of the rut of the same ol' exp zones over and over and hey, so it takes a while, I had a *great* time getting lost in Freeport, found the bard's guild, did the quest, found a neato new axe to play with while I was there, cleaned my kitchen on the boat ride back to Butcherblock and then muffed it all up by giving the packet in Keledin to the wrong person *whee* but ya know.. It's still fun :)

deliver to ton twostrings, not felisity like you are told. If you hail Felisity when you arrive, she tells you to talk to Ton. I made the mistake the first also and gave the mail to Felisity and got nothing, the second time I did this to try it again, and gave the mail to Ton, I got 6 gold and experience and faction.

Deliver all pouches of mail for Freeport to Ton Twostring (he's the one that gives pouches of mail for other cities). Deliver all letters for Freeport to Felisity Starbright. This is regardless of what the NPC who gave the mail told you to do. At least one NPC tells you the wrong person to deliver to.

Similarly In Qeynos, the bard that gives pouches of mail to deliver to other cities is the one you turn pouches destined for Qeynos to. The other NPC in Qeynos that accepts mail accepts all letters headed to Qeynos.
low lvl quest?

I am a lvl 4 cleric i got a letter from rivervale and i had to deliver mail to freeport. Frist off how do you know where to go when you are low lvl?
I have been to freeport but i dont know how to get from rivervale to freeport. What is up with that. They should at lest tell you were to go. My highest char. is lvl 7 druid I got this game 3 mounts ago. I think you need to fix this quest.

LOW LVLS DONT DO THIS QUEST ONLY IF YOU KNOW THE WAY!!!
RE: low lvl quest?
# Apr 15 2002 at 12:40 PM Rating: Decent
Low Levels SHOULD do this quest: not only is it easy money, but the travelling and adventure is fun! Do your research! Get a map and info about where you are going..Don't worry about your level, just duck and run: don't stop, go the best way, and don't hunt or forage along the way. Also, make sure to be bound where you start..at low levels, you got nothing to lose and you will see some interesting places. From Level 2 through Level 9, I went through Kelethin, Butcher Block, Keladim, Freeport, E&W Commons, Kithicore, Riverdale, High Pass Hold and High Pass Keep, W&N Karanas..with the new patch, you got nothing to lose!

This also happened to me. I'm wondering if this is a bug in the game.

I was able to deliver mail successfully to Kelethin. I accepted the job from a NPC at the docks of Butcherblock Mountains...
excellent quest

This Quest is and very well could be, the quickest quest out there. If you're going to go to a specific city anyway, and know your way through them very well, why not kick in some money and xp? Im not saying this out of opinion as I have done it often, but one things for sure, it is a good quest

I started in Gfay and was heading to freeport anyway. It was still a waste of time. The time it takes to talk them into giving you the mail, getting on the boat, then zoning into north freeport to give the mail and get at level12 mind you:
1/5 of a blue bubble and 1 gold piece.
I would rather have just run out the east gate after arrival and saved myself 4 zones.

I'm only level 3, and having agreed to deliver mail from Kelethin to Freeport, it took me quite some time just to get there (risking life and limb just about every step of the way). I finally tracked down Felicity and gave her the mail. She took it, said something about not knowing what it was or why I was giving it to her, and then didn't give me anything in return (no exp, no reward) - this quest (at least the delivery to Freeport) sucks - don't waste your time on it!
RE: Awful
# Nov 06 2002 at 7:34 PM Rating: Default
When you give it to Felicity in Freeport. You won't get any reward. You have to give it to Ton Twostrings instead. The bard in Kelethin gives us the wrong contact info.
