    Find a Blacksail fisherman in Barren Coast at Jardel's Hook. (loc?)

    A Blacksail fisherman whispers to you, 'Well met! I apologize for the crude speech earlier, but I must speak so to blend in with these brutal thugs. I would rather slay them, but the task I have been charged with is far more important. I have been sent to make certain that a dangerous item is not recovered by one that would use it to do intolerable evil. I have been granted power over [this item], and I sense that you have come in contact with it.

    You say, 'this item'

    A Blacksail fisherman looks around furtively, 'It is the wand, the one created by Marnek. It, and he, are responsible for uncounted murders and an endless amount of suffering. If you have any portion of this thing, please give it to me and I shall make certain that it is never [rebuilt]. We know that it was lost to Marnek when it exploded in the hold of one of our ships, and we know that he seeks to rebuild it. It is my sworn duty to make certain that this does not happen.'

    You say, 'rebuilt'

    You have been assigned the task 'Destroy Marnek's Wand'.




  • 1. Speak to the Stormguard Agent 0/1 (The Buried Sea)

    Task Window Text: The Coral Knight has told you that the wand of Marnek needs to be destroyed. You know that doing so will be a perilous thing.

    A Blacksail fisherman says, 'Ah, you have returned. When you and your allies are ready, give me the wand and I shall do what needs to be done.'

    Your task 'Destroy Marnek's Wand' has been updated.

    The Stormguard agent will not break the wand unless he feels you are adequately protected. You'll need more friends with you before he will take a chance with your life.

    [Requires full group - can be 3 player characters plus Mercs, and all need to be at the NPC]

  • 2. Deliver 1 Wand of the Burning Dead to Stormguard Agent 0/1 (The Buried Sea)

    Before turning in the wand, you should probably give time for the instance to load by waiting a minute. Otherwise, you will be stranded outside with no way in.

    Upon hand in of the wand.

    You hear a malevolent voice booming in your head. 'Nooooooo! How dare you! I know who you are, and I will have my revenge upon you! You have not stopped my work, only delayed it, and for that you shall pay with your lives!'

    A Blacksail fisherman focuses on the wand and a deep blue light glows around his hands. After a moment he suddenly snaps the wand. It shatters into several pieces, each surrounded in the blue light. They immediately fly off in many directions and quickly become lost to sight. The fisherman says, 'Thank you. You have spared many lives this day.'

    Your task 'Destroy Marnek's Wand' has been updated.

    I have you now! You cannot evade my power!

    A strange magical presence prevents you from entering. It's too dangerous to enter at the moment.

    A Blacksail fisherman says, 'Ah, you have returned. When you and your allies are ready, give me the wand and I shall do what needs to be done.'

    Your group is ported into an instance of Suncrest Isle.

  • 3. Kill Marnek 0/1 (Suncrest Isle)

    Marnek the Burning Lich attacks, kill it.

  • 4. Speak with Stormguard agent 0/1 (The Buried Sea)

    The mission does not lock, so you can add players before completion.

    To zone back out to The Buried Sea, you can click the rowboat along the cove on the west side of Suncrest Isle.

    You get into the longboat and row out. You are quickly picked up by one of the many merchant ships sailing the waters of the Buried Sea and delivered safely to the dock on Jardel's Hook...

    You say, 'Hail, a Blacksail fisherman'
    A Blacksail fisherman says, 'You have defeated Marnek? Wonderful! I doubt that such a beast will remain dead for long, such is the nature of the undead, but you have done a great thing and the Stormguard thank you.''
    You have defeated Marnek. For now, at least, Norrath is a little safer.

    "Find a Blacksail fisherman in Barren Coast at Jardel's Hook. (loc?)"
    should say:
    This group mission is offered immediately on completion of the solo task No Small Thing, by a Blacksail fisherman on the north beach of Jardel's Hook isle in The Buried Sea.

    You say, 'rebuilt'
    the response to this line is:

    A Blacksail fisherman says, 'Oh, it has been rebuilt? This is horrible news. But we can overcome it. I have been given the power to destroy the item, though I do not know for certain what will happen when I do so. If you have it, I urge you to give it to me. With your help we can destroy it. But I must warn you, Marnek will know that this has been done. I have been protected from his sight by Prexus himself, but you will have no such protection. Therefore, I suggest that when you return with the wand that you bring allies with you that you can trust, for I fear he will strike out at you when he senses what we have done. When you are prepared, just return to me and we shall destroy this thing together.'
