Upon completion of "Who Wants to Kill Kathryn":

Ciodaru says 'Thank you. That is a great relief. Now my Kathryn is safe. I have one final task for you. I need a box made to put all of the wondrous gifts you made. If you would be so kind and make the [box] and give her the gift I would be so grateful.'

You say 'I'll make the box'

Ciodaru says 'You have been most gracious in helping me. Please go se Fletcher Tahirah in Crescent Reach. I hear that her skills with wood are divine.'



Speak with Fletcher Tahirah 0/1 (Crescent Reach)

Fletcher Tahirah can be found at location -1395, -1417.

You say, 'Hail, Fletcher Tahirah'

Fletcher Tahirah says 'Well, boxes are an unusual request, but I do happen to know of a sealable box that would work very well. You can even adorn it with some decoration. Take this diagram and follow the instructions carefully. If you feel that you do not have the skills to make the box yourself, you can give the parts to me, pay me ten platinum, and I will make it for you.'

Deliver 1 Ciodaru's Gift box to Kathryn 0/1 (Goru'kar Mesa)

Put all the gifts in the container, hit combine, and give the result to Kathryn.

Kathryn says 'This is from Coidaru? Oh my, it is lovely! He does think of me! Tunare has graced me. You must go tell him that I also love him! Tunare be praised!'

If you return and hail Coidaru:

You say, 'Hail, Coidaru'

Ciodaru says 'Oh thank you. I will never be able to thank you enough. She does love me back!. Thank you!'

You Must Hand Ciodaru the EMPTY Box FIRST

I had turned in all the parts to the Fletcher Tahirah to get the box made for me.
I got back "Ciodaru's Gift box.
The quest updated through the line "Deliver 1 Ciodaru's Gift Box to Ciodaru". So I thought that I needed to complete the box and hand it into Ciodaru again. I put the items in the box and hit combine. I got the final "Ciodaru's Gift Box" that does not open. I handed it to Ciodaru and he handed it right back. The quest did not update. I dropped the quest "Ciodaru's Gift Box". But I kept the completed Gift box. I then reacquired the quest. I had the fletcher build the empty box again. I handed the empty box to Ciodaru and got the update to "Deliver 1 Ciodaru's Gift Box to Kathryn".

The Gift Box Plans read as follows:

To make a box of the design that Ciodaru wants, you will have to acquire six windwillow branches, two spider eyes, four large snake fangs, and some earthen ooze slime.
Using the plans bellow, prepare the six windwillow branches in a fletching kit.
Petrify the spider eyes by combining two of them in a jewelry kit with some earthen ooze slime.
Finally, assemble the box as the plans show assembling the prepared parts and using the spider eyes as decoration and the snake fangs to lock the parts in place.

The word bellow is actually spelled that way in the text.

Nothing says what to use to do the final assembly. So...

first combine the 6 branches together in a fletching kit ( triv 190) creating https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=62387
then combine the 2 spider eyes and 1 eathern ooze slime in a jewelry kit ( 190 trivial) creating https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=66278
lastly combine those 2 items and the 4 large snake fangs in a fletching kit ( 190 trivial) to make https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/item.html?item=62478
then show Ciodaru the box, then combine the 6 previous items ( gifts) in the box. and finally done.

Completed this today. Noticed something different than what is detailed above.

Create 1 Ciodaru's gift box using tradeskills 0/1 (ALL)
That step did not appear in my task. What I had in place of it was:

Give Ciodaru your freshly made empty gift box to show your workmanship. 0/1 ALL
Strangely enough, that step did indeed update when I made the final combine to create the empty box -- not upon giving the box as the step states.


ps. Completing this task results in no reward. You received the Glowing Green Silver Earring of Dragoste (with no stats) upon completing the FIRST task in the series. Like many charm slot items, the earring uses a script to determine current stats -- you must equip it to see that stats. That earring evolves into the final version with the clicky Dragoste effect upon completing the entire quest series. Even once the series has been completed, the earring must still be equipped once in order to evolve to final stats.

Oops

If you accidentally consume one of the quest items you can still make them by using tradeskills
Do not be alarmed

This task DOES have the optional steps to turn in the looted items plus 10 plat to the fletcher in Crescent Reach like all the others in the line. Unlike most of the others, you need nothing else turned in to the fletcher. Most others in the line of quests needed some vendor bought stuff -- this one ONLY needs the looted items and the 10 plat after.

I just completed the series as well on 4-26-12, and I noticed that I didn't get the rewarded earring either. However, I still did have the original earring given on completion of the first quest in the series. Upon inspection of it, it still appeared as it did as it was awarded for completing the first quest. However, when I equipped it, it became the earring as listed as the reward for completing the series. Hope this helps.

There are no faction hits associated with the completion of these tasks, only small xp rewards. There are some faction hits good and bad based on killing specific mobs but nothing else.

Make dang sure after making the gift box that you DO NOT COMBINE the items in it till you show him the uncombined product!!!!! He will simply give it back to you and you won't get any updates. I am redoing this task again in hopes that I don't have to redo any of the others.
