    This is one of 10 tasks to be completed in order to attain the Blessed Celestine Faycite augmentation.

    Sister Daria may be found at +1275, +1015.

    You say, 'Hail, Sister Daria'

    Sister Daria manages a weak smile, 'Hello, ______. Welcome to Camp Valor. Please pardon my lack of enthusiasm. This has been a [difficult week].'

    You say, 'Difficult week?'

    Sister Daria says 'Yes, we've [lost] four of our bravest members this past week: [Brom], [Sister Donna], [Castell Cloudskate], and my dear friend [Cavalier Devolah]. These were the brothers and sisters we relied upon to bolster our resolve and keep the camp's spirits strong. Here one day and gone the next. That's why Orwell is so desperately searching for recruits, to fill the gaps they left behind. We need new blood to maintain our foothold here. To be honest, I'm losing hope that we can make a difference against the curse that holds this place.''

    You say, 'Brom?'

    Sister Daria says 'The strongest and stoutest dwarf you ever laid eyes upon. He was unstoppable in combat and had an iron resolve and tenacity. Which is why it's unsettling that he vanished a few nights back. I awoke to his screams. When I rushed to his tent, there was no sign of him. This loss has been hard for us, but especially for his brother, Grom.'

    Speak to Sister Daria about Sister Donna to receive the task "Where has Sister Donna Gone".

    You say, 'Castell Cloudskate?'

    Sister Daria says 'Castell left camp heading northeast, in an effort to uncover what happened to the previous search party that never returned. Not surprisingly, he did not return either. We no longer send out rescue parties to locate our lost members.'

    You say, 'Cavalier Devolah?'

    Sister Daria says 'Yes, she is . . . or was my good friend. Her greatest strength was also her greatest weakness. When in the presence of a great source of evil, she would act first and think later. 'Death before dishonor', 'Return to the ashes from whence you came', 'Tunare take you' and all that, her sword springing from its scabbard. Though, melodramatic as she was, I can't complain. Her quick blade and fearless resolve saved my life more times than I can count. Something gripped Devolah so strongly about the undead to the southwest that she was compelled to venture there alone and without any warning. I learned of her leaving via a missive she pinned to my satchel. It said, 'I wanted to keep you out of harms reach'.'

    You say, 'Lost?'

    Sister Daria says 'I'm not sure if you want to hear this, ______. They . . . disappear in the middle of the night, their abduction marked by bone-chilling screams. They venture out into the mists to defend the righteous or [rescue the missing] and rarely return. The ones that do make their way back to Camp Valor are stark, raving mad.''

    You say, 'rescue the missing?'

    You have been assigned the task 'How the Mighty Have Fallen'.

    Sister Daria bursts into sobs, 'Enough! Do not tempt my mind with thoughts of hope only to dash them across the rocks again. They're not coming back. They've been subjected to horrors the likes of which I cannot imagine. We are doomed, ______! I will never see the sun, or my family again and I am destined to perish in these god-forsaken hills.'

    Camp Valor has lost some of its bravest members this past week. Sister Daria wants you to scour the hills in an effort to determine their fate.

    Find out what happened to Brom (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Run over multiple "a decorative fetish" (looks like a small pile of bones with a skull on top) in the aviak area of Hills of Shade. The update will come from a random fetish.

    Recover the remains of Brom. (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Target "a decorative fetish" and type /open. The update will come from a random fetish & "Remains of Brom" will appear on your cursor.

    Find out what happened to Castell Cloudskate (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    The task updates when you stand right next to Castell, at loc 2383, 655.85. This is on the island in the north of the zone.

    Speak with Castell Cloudskate (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Hail him. The task updates, although he does not respond.

    Find out what happened to Cavalier Devolah (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Devolah can be found at Loc -10, 1050. This is in the crypts of shade in the south of Hills of Shade. On hailing her...

    Cavalier Devolah says 'I'm a little busy. Help me take out a few of these ghouls and then we can chat.'

    Kill 15 Ghouls (0/15) - Hills of Shade

    Try to convince Cavalier Devolah to return to Camp Valor (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Cavalier Devolah says 'Despite your persistence, I unfortunately cannot go with you. As you can see, the cleansing must continue! The undead hordes rise from the dirt as fast as I cut them down. Send Sister Daria my best, and tell her I will return when I am able.

    Return Broms Remains to Sister Daria (0/1) - Hills of Shade

    Upon hearing of the fates of her comrades, Daria bursts into tears.

    Just did this on three guys... it's the same fetish every time. The first update step doesn't even require the fetish to be there, it's just a /loc based update. The fetish is at 1199 2071
    Brom's remains - off any fetish

    I just finished this step on ten toons. The /open update is random from any of the fetishes, not just one previously mentioned in particular. I was just checking out the others waiting for repop and ended up getting them from all over the aviak area. So, it's not just one stack.

    Also, not one I opened was safe. I got agro every time I opened - usually by three or four. I ended up using coth to do it, and evac'd my mage when it was his turn.

    Above is correct - also random, not one /loc.

    Last note: Baublefeather sees invis but I could not determine if he attacks on site. I got dangerously close and he didn't agro... more than once. /whew

    For the first step ( "Find out what happened to Brom" ), you must go to the borrowers camp at +1240 +2173 +82 for task update.

    For the second step, at the same loc, you will find 3 "a decorative fetish" which are skulls ont the floor. The northest one is those that must be opened in order to update this second step. "Remains of Brom" will then appear on your cursor ( it looks like a head ).

    None, necromancer, The Rathe

    1) Find brom
    First you have to go to the borrowers roost section of the map, there are several little piles of skulls and bones, run over them until you get an update, nothing saw invis when i tried but didnt come across any named up.

    2) recover the remains of brom

    open the piles until you get update, you do not need to loot the pile, you will eventually get the head

    3) Find out what happened to Castell Cloudskate
    4) speak with castell cloudskate

    he is on an island north of the camp where you got the quest, hail him, say shore, run around him until you get update, and hail again.

    5) find what happened to cavalier devolah

    is in the crypt south of borrowers section, wanders, mobs in crypt vary some see invis some are undead a mix of ivu and invis you can run back to where the cavalier is, hail and get update

    6) kill 15 crypt ghouls
