You say, 'Hail, Cartographer Slipgear'
Cartographer Slipgear says 'Bzzt! Well hello there! It's always nice to see a new face! I get so tired of all the same faces and places, don't you? Unfortunately my left leg is jammed and all I can do right now is walk in little circles! Bzzt! This has made it pretty hard for me to finish up the maps I have started of the surrounding areas. Would you like to [help]?'
You say, 'I would like to help.'
Cartographer Slipgear says 'Great! What I need is really pretty simple. I've managed to overhear some of the new arrivals talking about some of the surrounding areas and they sure do sound really exciting! Bzzt! Since I can't go there myself right now I was hoping you could visit each one and then come back and describe them to me so I can add them to my maps. Do you [accept the mission]?'
You say, 'I accept the mission.'

You have been assigned the task 'Explore Stoneroot Falls'.
Cartographer Slipgear has asked you to visit some of the locations he has been hearing so much about lately. Visit each location and return to him with notes on what you have found and he has promised to reward you for your efforts.
The Living Isles
Giant mollusk-like creatures with impenetrable shells and incredibly slow metabolisms drift near the base of Stone Root falls. Know as the Living Isles, their exposed backs are home to some of the most dangerous wildlife in Darkhollow.
The Deeping Way Trade Route
The Deeping Way Trade Route consists of a network of bridges which crisscross one another along the precipitous Stone Root Falls. Less than one hundred years ago, it served as a bustling trade route of the Shiliskin Empire. Since the siege of Xill however, the trade route has fallen into misuse and is regularly beset by drachnid raiders. Only the battle-hardened remnants of the Xillstart legion remain stalwart enough to patrol its length.
Versarin, the Fallen Outpost
Long ago, Versarin Outpost server as the Xill's first line of defense. Since the fall of Xill however, the Outpost has fallen to ruin and neglect. The drachnids now use the hallowed out tower to practice their reanimation rituals on the corpses of shiliskin victims.
The Ruins of Xill
Xill was the first shiliskin city to fall to the drachnid invaders. Although the city has remained in ruins ever since, several members of the drachnid lower caste have since scuttled into the rubble to claim the area as their own.
The Coral Bog
Giant coral growths rise from the shallows south of Stone Root Falls. In these shallows, the witheran gather to feed and spawn in the murky waters. During the flood season, the witheran gather in such numbers that the water itself appears to squirm with life.
