This solo task is the third of four in a task arc from Schelly Starflight in Kernagir, the Shining City. She is located at approximately 405, 60, -50 (first floor, northern building).

Pre-requisites for requesting this task: "Is it Contagious?"; "Where did it Come From?"

You say, 'Hail, Schelly Starflight'

Schelly Starflight says 'Greetings again _________! We have been going over the reports you brought us and I must say they contain some very interesting information. It seems someone has gone through a great deal of trouble to remain anonymous while spreading their vile messages. We must [uncover] their identity!'

You say, 'Uncover?'

Schelly Starflight says 'Fortunately we got some very good leads from the analyses of the note. At some point the note was in Lichen Creep for a short while. Also, there was a strong curse placed on the note while in Pellucid Grotto. After some deliberation we have decided to pursue the [Lichen Creep] lead first.'

You say, 'Lichen Creep?'

You have been assigned the task 'Sifting for Clues'.

Schelly Starflight says 'Please return to Lindwiss Solvolysis and consult with her on the best way to use the data gained from the previous analysis. Your assistance has been a boon to the council and we are confident you will turn up something substantial. We eagerly await your return.'


Hail Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/1 (Kernagir)

You say, 'Hail, Lindwiss Solvolysis'

Lindwiss Solvolysis says 'I knew you would be back. I was certain that given the results of my previous analysis, a follow up investigation was inevitable. Since our last meeting I have been formulation a course of action. If I had a larger group of samples from various places in Lichen Creep, I could pinpoint a more specific location where the note was. Here is a list of what I need. Good luck out there.'

Head to Lichen Creep! 0/1 (ALL)

Loot 4 Chunks of Basalt from rock golems 0/4 (Lichen Creep)

Loot 4 Samples of Living Lava from lava golems 0/4 (Lichen Creep)

Loot 4 Pieces of Molten Skin from lava mephits 0/4 (Lichen Creep)

Loot 4 Sessiliod Shards from hungry sessiloids 0/4 (Lichen Creep)

NOTE: Someone must have the task in order for the mobs to drop these items.

Obtain 4 Lichenash from ground spawns 0/4 (Lichen Creep)

Deliver 4 Chunks of Basalt to Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/4 (Kernagir)

Deliver 4 Samples of Living Lava to Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/4 (Kernagir)

Deliver 4 Pieces of Molten Skin to Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/4 (Kernagir)

Deliver 4 Sessiloid Shards to Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/4 (Kernagir)

Deliver 4 Lichenash to Lindwiss Solvolysis 0/4 (Kernagir)

Return to Lichen Creep 0/1 (ALL)

Search the Lodestone living quaters for anything unusal 0/1 (Lichen Creep)

In Lichen Creep, there are portals laid out in a clockwise manner. These each lead to the room. Which portal you need to take may be random.

You are looking for a Cryptic Scroll, which spawns in one of these rooms. The portal room known to have the scroll was the "one at about 2 o'clock" (if looking at the portals as a clock). Portal location: -1090, +568, 31.

NOTE: At least one named mob in Lichen Creep is known to have a PH in one of the portal rooms, so there is a slim chance you could encounter a named upon porting up.

Return to Schelly with the scroll 0/1 (Kernagir)

You say, 'Hail, Schelly Starflight'

You managed to locate a scroll in lichen creep which contained useful evidence.

Schelly Starflight says 'What's this?' Shelly reads over the note. 'This is certainly a damning piece of evidence if we can ever discover who R.I. might be. The council will hold on to this scroll until additional evidence is located. Speak to me again when you are ready to follow the next lead.'

Everything is going smoothly in Kernagir. Your agents have successfully infiltrated the general population and are spreading the word with great success.

However, there is an outsider poking around here trying to find out what we've been doing. I want you to kill him as soon as possible. Do not fail me in this.

PS - Be sure to destroy this note. I cannot afford for my position to be compromised. ``R.I.

I can confirm that once I had the task, the mobs dropped the needed items. I had been killing in the zone hours prior and never saw any of those items until I had the task.

My scroll was at the 2 o'clock portal: -1090, +568, 31
