This quest is given by Tabure Ahendle by the arena in South Qeynos (/loc?). You only receive this dialogue if you completed the "Kobold Killing" quest, but may do the turn-in without having done it. You need amiable or higher faction to complete the quest.

You say, 'Hail, Tabure Ahendle'
Tabure Ahendle says 'What have we here? Perhaps a future Ebon Strongbear? A [member of the Steel Warriors]? If the way of the warrior is not to your liking, might I suggest joining the League of Antonican Bards? The only damage you might take there is a sore throat! HAHAHA!'
You say, 'member of the Steel Warriors'
Tabure Ahendle says 'A warrior, you say? I have never met you. You must be from the [bunker] or perhaps just a new recruit. You should test your skills with Brin Stolunger. When you have done that, then, maybe you could [assist] me.'
You say, 'assist'
Tabure Ahendle says 'So, you think you can be of assistance to me? Let me test your skill. Travel to Erudin and seek out the beasts which are called Kobolds. I have never seen one and would very much like to have four Kobold Hides with which to make a rug. To do so would earn you some barely used rawhide armor - maybe even a shield.'
You say, 'what dangerous task?'
Tabure Ahendle says 'A ship sank while returning from Odus. On this ship was my squire, Tombor. He sank to the bottom and there he still lies. With him went a map. I would very much like you to search for this sunken ship. Return the map to me. I am sure it is still in the rotting hands of Tombor.'

Hand him the Blurred Map.

Tabure Ahendle says 'The map!! It is all blurred. The ink has run. I shall never be able to decipher it now. Still, I owe you for completion of your mission. May these be of assistance. It is always good for a warrior to be well supplied.'

As noted above she won't deal with you at indifferent, however she did return the blurred map when i tried to give to her:

Update:

You must complete the quest Kobold Killing to participate in this dialogue, but can do the turn in without doing that quest.

Tabure Ahendle says 'Incredible!! Such grand tones. It shall make a fine rug. You have shown me that you cannot always judge a book by its cover. You are quite skilled. Would you like to perform a [dangerous task] for me?'

You say, 'What dangerous task?'

Tabure Ahendle says 'A ship sank while returning from Odus. On this ship was my squire, Tombor. He sank to the bottom and there he still lies. With him went a map. I would very much like you to search for this sunken ship. Return the map to me. I am sure it is still in the rotting hands of Tombor.'

Hand him the Blurred Map.

Tabure Ahendle says 'The map!! It is all blurred. The ink has run. I shall never be able to decipher it now. Still, I owe you for completion of your mission. May these be of assistance. It is always good for a warrior to be well supplied.'

I received a rusty halberd, 6 silver pieces and 1 gold piece. It appears that the item you receive is random, but the Cast-Iron Long Sword is the rare reward.

She is in the arena area, which is pretty close to the bank. She is a barbarian and stands on the same side as the gemeral merchant on the lower floor.
Does the map still drop?

I spent 2 and a half hours killing the zombies by the wreck on the island in Erud's Crossing last night and never saw the map drop. The wreck is in shallow water just off the coast - the top of its mast is poking above the water so it's easy to locate. Three zombies spawn next to the hull on the island side (there are no zombies on the wreck or on the far side of the hull). They respawn every 6 minutes so I killed a lot of them. The algae covered zombie skin for acolyte quest in Riverdale dropped several times but never got the map. Maybe I just had extraordinarily bad luck?

Just got it on the second round of spawn. So it still drops.
faction hit?

how big is the faction hit with Freeport Militia?
con?
# Jun 07 2001 at 12:52 AM Rating: Decent
I gave it to her while she conned indifferent and didn't get a thing. Broken quest maybe?
RE: con?
# Aug 08 2002 at 3:21 AM Rating: Decent
You need to be at least amiable with her or she eats your map...
Must be better than apprehensive to start this.
# Jun 01 2001 at 10:55 PM Rating: Default
I just gave my map to her and got the not enough faction message - I conned apprehensive to her. Just an FYI.
Can I.....

raise faction with steel warriors in Freeport and it count the same in Qeynos? I try doing these quests but the people hate me so I am trying to raise faction in Qeynos but it will not let me :(
RE: Can I.....
# Apr 03 2001 at 12:04 PM Rating: Default
you can raise your faction in qeynos by killing gnolls in blackburrow really easy things to kill and very ugly so it shouldnt be a problem also they drop fangs you can turn in to capt tillin in the top of the arena for exp and better standing with all of qeynos
RE: Can I.....
# Oct 12 2000 at 1:03 PM Rating: Default
To raise faction, if below amiable to start, try gnoll fangs to Halas quest and Clothspinner sisters. Doing Sisters quest about 10 to 15 times raised faction from apprehensive to amiable for me.
What?

What kind of "random item"?
something odd
# Aug 25 2000 at 6:45 PM Rating: Decent
There is a faction related factor to this quest. I was with a party, a ranger, a druid, and a wizard. we all had a map, and none of us were rewarded for this quest.
RE: something odd
# Oct 19 2001 at 1:30 AM Rating: Excellent
She gives this quest after you do the Kobold hide quest. Geuss her new rug is more important than her dead apprentice. /shrug
Anyway, you need amiable faction to do this.
