This quest begins with Raltur Caliskon in East Freeport (/loc -1430, 570, -50).

You say, 'Hail, Raltur Caliskon'

Raltur Caliskon says 'May the rage of Innoruuk flow through your veins. Welcome, _______! Soon the Dismal Rage shall run rampant through the streets of Freeport. Our numbers grow. Like you, so many feel the rage within. It is now time to [serve Innoruuk].'

You say, 'I will serve innoruuk'

Raltur Caliskon says 'Wise choice. We of the Dismal Rage have learned the value of incompetence. As the Teir'Dal use the ogres and the trolls, so too shall the Dismal Rage have pawns in this game. Ours are the Freeport Militia. They trust us. How unfortunate for them. I want you to go and speak with Sir Lucan D'Lere, the so-called 'ruler' of this city and leader of this mob of ruffians called the Freeport Militia. Tell him you are [from the Shrine of Innoruuk]. Do as he asks. Little favors lead to large debts. And if you should find something of importance, bring it to me, not to that inept warrior.'

Head upstairs and find Sir Lucan D`Lere at /loc -1055, 720, 31).

You say, 'Hail, Sir Lucan D`Lere'

Sir Lucan D`Lere says 'Hail, citizen! I am very busy. I do not have time to speak with you. If you have any complaints, please direct them to City Hall. Unless, of course, you have some personal business in which I might be interested.'

You say, 'I am from the shrine of innoruuk'

Sir Lucan D`Lere says 'It is about time Pietro sent someone. You people should be lucky I allow you to conduct your business in this city. I will have you all locked up if you cannot be more prompt. Now, listen up! I want you to go out to the Commonlands. My guards have reported that a messenger from Qeynos is staying at an inn near the western edge of the Commonlands. I suspect he is carrying vital information to the Hall of Truth. I want him stopped. Bring me the message if you know what's good for you and the Dismal Rage. Now, get out of here!'

Head to the Commonlands and find Mojax Hikspin at /loc 110, 2340, -37.

You say, 'Hail, Mojax Hikspin'

Mojax Hikspin says 'Hi. How are you? The fish are biting pretty good. That is what Skipynn tells me. I sure wish I had a different job. If I did, I could fish all day long.'

You say, 'What is your job?'

Mojax Hikspin says 'I am a messenger for [Antonius Bayle], ruler of the great city of [Qeynos].'

You say, 'Who is Antonius Bayle?'

Mojax Hikspin says 'How can it be that you do not know of Antonius Bayle? Was it not he who named this great continent of Antonica? Is it not he who rules over the most powerful city on Norrath? Surely you jest!'

You say, 'Where is Qeynos?'

Mojax Hikspin says 'Huh?! Have you been living in a cave? The great city of Qeynos is the mightiest nation in Antonica! You'd best journey toward the west and visit the city whose influence stretches beyond the horizons.'



Acquiring the Note: Option #1 - Kill Duggin Scumber

Acquiring the Note: Option #2 - Follow Mojax Hikspin

If you wait long enough, Mojax walks down the path to his hiding spot (/loc -260, 3240, -6).

Of course, we of the Dismal Rage are already aware of this, but I am sure Sir Lucan D'Lere knows nothing as usual. I have a [mission] for any evil shadowknight of Innoruuk.'

Well it seems Antonius Bayle and the Knights of Truth have begun an alliance. And it sounds as though I may have a traitor among my guards. If you wish to switch your allegiance to Freeport, then find me this traitor. Bring me his militia tunic. Try to keep the blood from staining it.'
Your faction standing with The Freeport Militia got better.
Your faction standing with Coalition of Tradefolk Underground got better.

Your faction standing with Priests of Marr got worse.

I did this quest and took the note to Raltur. He tells you to get a note from Lady Shea who is at the Inn in west freeport. I've killed her about 10 times and shes never droped a note. Its called something like the Bayle III??? Anyone know anything about this and how I can get the note?

Faction Changes
# Oct 18 2000 at 12:23 PM Rating: Default
I did this quest three times last night. A few things have changed.

First, as a Troll SK you cannot hail Mojax, you must kill him to get the note. He doesn't drop it every time, more like 1-in-3. Second, there is no longer any reward other than faction. Third, the factions have been changed. It's only DismalRage - better, OpalDarkbriar - better, KnightsofTruth - worse.

You don't actually get the note from killing Mojax, you have to talk to him. Hail him and he'll complain that he can't fish all day because he has to do his job, ask him what his job is and he'll say he's a messenger for Antonius Bayle. Wait a minute or so and he'll get up and drop the note by the marker, you can pick it up from there and kill him afterwards just for fun (be prepared to chase him because he's weak and will run away). I didn't know this at first and killed him several times without talking to him, he never had the note on his corpse. Killing him yields the same faction adjustments as listed above and also raises faction with the Dismal Rage. When I gave the note to Raltur, he didn't give me a spell scroll but it did lead into the Bayle List quest which I haven't completed yet. The traitor quest doesn't come from turning the note to Raltur, for that you have to give the note to Sir Lucan Dlere. You can get the note from Mojax more than once and turn it in to each of them (Raltur and Lucan) to do both quests.

You can solo Mojax at 5th or 6th level, depending on your equipment. Have a HT ready if you're not twinked. He *does* drop the note, but not every time. If Merteuil's method works every time, then it's better unless you just like killing Paladins.

There is often another NPC next to Mojax (Skippyn or something like that) who is one level higher and conned Threatening to my Dark Elf SK. I was able to pull Mojax with arrows several times without Skip aggroing, though.

If you are level 9 or higher, you can take both NPC's out but killing Hikspin's friend lowers your faction with the Freeport Militia.

This is an ok quest, mostly used to raise faction with the evil races and Freeport Military at the sametime. The reward is lacking, but it leads to a bigger, better quest.
