You say, 'Hail, Iago Sabuela'

Iago Sabuela says 'Salutations dragon friend ______. I am Iago Sabuela archeologist, enchanter, and proud member of the [Draconic Loyalist Fellowship]. Please make yourself comfortable and enjoy your visit to Skyshrine.'

You say, 'What Draconic Loyalist Fellowship?'

Iago Sabuela says 'The Draconic Loyalist Fellowship is people like myself of a non-draconic heritage that have pledged obedience to the dragons and dragon-kin of Skyshrine. We have proven that we can provide valuable services and resources to the dragons and dragon-kin that would otherwise be difficult or impossible for them to obtain. Among the occupations I pursue here in the Skyshrine is the acquisition of lost [draconic artifacts].'

You say, 'What draconic artifacts?'

Iago Sabuela says 'The dragons and their kin have an ancient and complex culture like any intelligent creature in Norrath. I have spent the majority of my years studying the ancient dragon civilizations of Norrath and recovering lost draconic artifacts. There are several artifacts I am currently searching for and could use the assistance of a capable group of adventurers. Are you interested in [hunting for lost artifacts]?'

You say, 'I am interested in hunting for lost artifacts.'

Iago Sabuela says 'Excellent. With the help of the texts provided me by the dragon-kin here in Skyshrine I have narrowed my search down to a few locations where I believe the artifacts I seek may be hiding. Before the artifacts may be recovered however you will need a special container in which to store them in. They are quite old and who knows what condition they may be in. I am missing some materials that are necessary for the insulation of the container thus it would be appreciated if you could provide me with a [crystalline silk mesh] and two [oily goo secretions] I will finish the construction of the artifact container and provide with the information I have obtained of the lost artifacts.'

You say, 'What crystalline silk mesh?'

Iago Sabuela says 'An experienced tailor must craft the woven crystalline spider silk mesh in a tailoring kit out of four crystalline silks.'

You say, 'What oily goo secretions?'

Iago Sabuela says 'Tar Goos can be found in the Geonid caves in the Wakening Lands. These Goos secrete a sticky, oily substance that makes for an excellent sealant and insulation.'

Upon handing in the items:

Iago Sabuela says 'Thank you Apothes. Here is the container that the artifacts must be stored and returned to me in once they have been recovered. The artifacts I seek are a [Crystal Dragon Eye], a [Golden Dragon Claw], a [Dragon Scripture Tablet], and a [Platinum Dragon Scale]. When all the items have been recovered, seal the artifact container and return it to me. You shall be rewarded well for your assistance, I assure you.'


Your faction standing with Claws of Veeshan could not possibly get any better.
Your faction standing with Yelinak got better.
Your faction standing with Kromzek could not possibly get any worse.
You gain experience!!

You say, 'what platinum dragon scale'

Iago Sabuela says 'There are tales among the dragon-kin of a platinum dragon scales marked with mystical runes in the ancient dragon script. Whether this scale was crafted from platinum ore, encased in platinum, or is actually from a lost species of dragon is unknown. The last written accounts mentioning the scale place it in the vicinity of the Cobalt Scar. It is my assumption that the magically adepts sirens of Sirens Grotto may now be in possession of the scale.'

You say, 'what crystal dragon eye'

Iago Sabuela says 'I have uncovered some texts here in the Skyshrine that speak of a crystal carved in the visage of a Dragons eye. The dragon sorcerer, Xervolithax, who was slain by enemies of the Dragons several centuries ago in the Great Divide, crafted this crystal dragon eye. As it was an artifact of some significant undisclosed magical power it believed to now be hidden somewhere in the Labyrinth of the Kromzek Sorcerer, Velketor.'

You say, 'what golden dragon claw'

Iago Sabuela says 'Draconic legends mention a hollow golden dragon claw artifact that would fit over one of the fore-claws of a dragon. This dragon-crafted jewelry was more than a simple adornment. The legends claim that the dragon that wore this claw had the ability to swiftly carve powerful runes into the surface of any object. These runes were apparently some form ancient spellcrafting art and it is said the dragon, Ulvaxazoviak, who for a time possessed the claw would carve runes of protection and power into his own scales. When Ulvaxazoviak's spirit finally fled this realm he was buried in the Dragon Necropolis, which is where I believe the golden dragon claw has rested to this day.'

You say, 'what dragon scripture tablet'

Iago Sabuela says 'Certain dragon scholars engraved their writings onto tablets of Velium, believing the magical ice that is found throughout Velious to have been formed by the breath of Veeshan herself. There are accounts of one such tablet that was lost many decades ago in the Eastern Wastes. I have visited the Coldain city of Thurgadin many times during my stay here in Velious and I do not believe that the tablet is in the possession of the dwarves. It may however have fallen into the hands of the Ry'Gorr Clan Orcs that man a keep in the Eastern Wastes.'

Am I going the wrong way in sg? When you drop down the well, it seems as though sword fish sees thru invis right? Can anyone tell me whether you go right or left(tunnels) from the well drop down.. Or whether its east or west.. I've dragged people down several times before and we always manage to get lost and wipe. Not really experienced w/ Siren Ghrotto

think of the well in sirens grotto as a straw that sticks into a drink.. what you do is you go down to the bottom of the straw and come up around the edges on the outside.. my first time there, I couldn't see it either. As for see invis mobs at the bottom, they're not always there.
Runemag in DN

This guy isn't hard just like the others, but DN is a pain. The traps come and go as they please, spawning when and where they want. When we killed runemage the first time we camped, I assumed it's spawn time was of that of the kobolds (been a while since he died and no show). Logged back in and half the group were getting a nasty trap of a root and whirlwind in the air. Not sure if that was a nice lil anti camping/logging trap but it was not there today, we were on around the same time and got a different trap message around the same spot (one that never did anything tho).

Directions as Amoxacilla put it - invis run, go thru double doors, follow wall so it's on your right, go down tunnel and once underground and at fork in road (kill the mice), take a left, go down a ways and take another left, there's a room filled with lots of mice (saw a spidey there once that didn't want to leave lol). Runemage is about a 2-3hour spawn, more like 2 1/2 i'd say - no PHs. Killed him 3 times to get the piece.

This Can be done with one group, had a 63 warrior, 65 rogue, 55 wizzie (evacer recommended, no matter how bad *** you may be or green cons there are, these rats mean business), 58 enchanter, 59 cleric and 65 cleric (who can double for a melee lol). Had little problems, I recommend invising all the way down to right before the rat filled hallway, then pulling the hallway THEN going thru (rogue recommended to disarm traps, it helps), mobs come from all sides and add. Bats roam there, don't aggro but will assist - no faction hits.

The twisty hallway into Runemage room where a few roamers are is a good place to sit and get a puller to ....pull :P

Good luck on getting it to drop once, if not, convince your group to stay logged in for another 2-3 hours in best hopes it drops then. Was my last piece and was quite a pain, almost said "Say yes to the Stormfeather camp and No to DN" :P

there is a sorceress in sirens grotto that drops the platinum dragon scale for this quest. It always spawns in the same place: down the well (shaft), go through the "plus" shaped tunnel, pop out of the water and make a 180. This is where a lot of people have gone to farm velious BP gems. dont go up the stairs, go behind them. you'll see a pool guarded by 2 watery/icy servent, and 2 sirens. The sorceress spawns here along with one other mob. There does not seem to be a placeholder for it. You'll either find it up, or somebody has killed it and you'll find it back up in a couple of hours (not sure on spawn time but it's not the usual 28 minutes like most of the zone)

Killed the orc in EW twice, first time he dropped nothing, second time he dropped tablet. I'm told the sorcerer in Velks drops the eye about 40-50% of the time by someone whose been in there the past couple days ;). So it seems like the items dont drop 100% of the time, but aren't extremely rare either.

I have yet to try the SG or DN parts of this quest.

Oh yea, the mob in velks is on a different timer than the rest of the mobs down there, approx. 2-3 hours respawn.

The oracle
# Dec 06 2002 at 12:28 PM Rating: Excellent
"Some Ry'Gorr in the fort, no more info."

it's the oracle =) no subquest for the tablet.

I am the one that solved the quest.

The sorceress is in the big room after swimming down the well. in the back of it.

Dragon Scripture Tablet dropped off a Ry'Gorr Oracle at the Fort in EW. Found it soon after PoP came out, but never knew what it was for until now.

Drops off tar goos in WL rare drop
RE: Oily goo secretions?
# Dec 06 2002 at 7:10 AM Rating: Decent
In VL:

An Icepaw Sorcerer: Crystal Dragon Eye
New third mob in the dropdown to the Pit

In SG:

A Siren Sorceress: Platinum Dragon Scale
No more info

In DN:

A chetari runemage: Golden Gragon Claw
Probably in the little room near Neb's one, wasn't pulling though.

In EW:

Some Ry'Gorr in the fort, no more info.

There might be a sub-quest involving 4 sections of a draconic tome who drops in Kael, CS, ToFS and GD that needs to be done before the quest NPC talk to you about this one.
