    Your location is 3139.86, 2251.72, -49.97.

    Dyth X`Teria looks your way apprehensively -- what would you like your tombstone to say?

    You say, 'Hail, Dyth X`Teria'

    Dyth X`Teria appears to be the local master of wizardry. His garb clearly comes from the dark city of Neriak as it bears a black sun emblem. 'Speak!! I am dispatched from Neriak to this land by order of the king. I shall research [new spells] and aid the adventuring wizards. My knowledge of wizardry is offered to all in hopes of gaining information about Kunark.'

    You say, 'What new spells?'

    Dyth X`Teria says 'Within this lost land could lie the knowledge of extinct civilizations. I am ordered to seek out this knowledge for the empire of Neriak. So far, all I have discovered is a way to create a spell of my own design. I call it [Brain Bite].'

    You say, 'What is Brain Bite?'

    Dyth X`Teria says 'If you wish to own a copy of MY spell, Brain Bite, I would be glad to give you one. All I ask is that you [gather a few souls] for me.'

    You say, 'I will gather a few souls.'

    Dyth X`Teria reveals three ornate bottles. 'While I finished my research on Brain Bite, I encountered three [interlopers] who wished to steal my spell. I had the dragoon garrison track them down and dispatch them. Unfortunately, I forgot to instruct them to trap their souls with these bottles. Do you want to [take the bottles] and finish the job?'

    You say, 'Who were the three interlopers?'

    Dyth X`Teria says 'The garrison report was sloppy, to say the least. They informed me that Hampton was slain near some ruins within a jungle infested by raptors. Mardon was slain in an ancient city found deep in a jungle. Ryla was killed in a hidden fortress guarded by fierce armored wolves who walked on their hind legs.'

    You say, 'I will take the bottles.'

    Dyth X`Teria says 'The bottles also require a gem. You will fetch me the three gems and I will prepare the bottles and give them to you to finish the job. I need an onyx, a peridot and a star rose quartz.'

    All three gems may be storebought. Hand them in:

    Dyth X`Teria says 'This bottle is for the one called Hampton. If you look well, you can see his name.'
    Dyth X`Teria says 'This bottle is for Mardon. You may be able to identify his name upon it.'
    Dyth X`Teria says 'Identify this when the time comes. It is Ryla's prison.'

    You receive 3 x An Ornate Bottle, which respectively identify as:

    Item Lore: Hampton.
    Item Lore: Mardon.
    Item Lore: Ryla.

    Head to Trakanon's Teeth.

    Your Location is 275.07, -3801.88, -366.59.

    a human skeleton regards you indifferently -- it appears to be quite formidable.

    You say, 'Hail, a human skeleton'

    a human skeleton says 'Save my.. soul.. Find.. wizard.. desp..'

    Give him the appropriate bottle and it will despawn, then respawn about ten seconds later. You receive a "bottle of swirling smoke," which identifies as:

    Item Lore: Hampton's Soul.

    Ryla, a human skeleton, is located in a jail cell in Karnor's Castle. Take the stairs up to the roof and past the "Hand Room". After passing one corridor on your right, the next turn you come across is the jail. Give the correct bottle to the skeleton to receive a bottle of swirling smoke, which identifies as Ryla's Soul.

    Mardon, a human skeleton, is located in the City of Mist reaver tower at location +136 -641. The skeleton is kill-on-sight, but you can do the turn-in from around the corner without aggro. Give the correct bottle to the skeleton to receive a bottle of swirling smoke, which identifies as Mardon's Soul.

    Return to Dyth X`Teria with the three bottles to receive the Spell: Brain Bite.

    Dyth X`Teria says 'Only three souls will get you my knowledge, wizard.'
    Dyth X`Teria says 'Only three souls will get you my knowledge, wizard.'
    Dyth X`Teria empties the bottle's smoke into a very large glass urn filled with similar swirling smoke. You think you hear the cries of a thousand tortured souls. He then closes the urn and hands you a scroll. 'Here is your reward. It will blast a foe's brain and hopefully, they may forget their hatred.'
    Your faction standing with Venril Sathir got better.
    You gain experience!!

    #Anonymous, Posted: May 04 2001 at 10:50 AM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) Just did this Quest with a lvl 17 SK, had major help from loads of high lvls :)
    can dark elf's do this quest in firona vie with a ball of cl

    We have a permanent group that has a dark elf wizard in the group. Understandibly, he wants to keep his OT/Venril Sathir faction up to do this quest as this spell is extreamly nice for medding during combat after ices. This precludes us from doing kaesora and karnors until we can do the quest. I had a necro on my previous server and found that balls of golem clay were fantastic for doing quests. His diety is agnostic, so he doesnt have to worry about diety faction hurting him in FV. Anyone have any input on this? Any help would be appreciated. >;)
    #Anonymous, Posted: Sep 14 2000 at 6:42 PM, Rating: Sub-Default, (Expand Post) do I just give the right bottle to right npc? or do I have to kill them?
    quest too hard for its level

    Way too hard for a level 39 to complete this quest without high level support. the first bottle is ok, but the one in City of Mist is just Not Gonna Happen(tm) without high level help, and the one in Karnors is about as bad, though luck and good timing might get you that one.
    other problems with this quest

    The problem here for darks is getting the soul in Karnors will kill your faction with the guy giving the quest unless you just tag along with a group and dont touch anything in the dugeon (dont even target something and hope nothing attacks you first.
    Too tough for the lvl of the spell

    If I remember right, this spell is also called Concussion and is only a lvl 39 spell. This quest is impossible to do for a lvl 39 wizard! Suggestion to Verant: Make this quest easier!
    locations a bit wrong

    Morden IS in City of MIst, and Hampton is in the Trakanon's Teeth, not Burning Woods. Ryla's loc is correct.
