This was the fourth solo task in the pre-House of Thule task line called "In The Absence of Fear". This was an Achievement granted upon completing the following tasks:

[_] Mission: Invasion of the Fearless
[_] Quest: Missing Persons
[_] Quest: Lone Wolf Hero
[_] Quest: I Want to Conquer the World
[_] Quest: Not Afraid of Ghosts
[_] Quest: Long Live the King
[_] One of the following:
___ [_] Quest: Wall Under Attack
___ [_] Quest: Destroy Nevafeer Staging
___ [_] Quest: Waylay Reinforcements
___ [_] Quest: Nevafeer Leader Attack



This task begins with Myrrie Sharden in Erudin at the docks. It's available at all levels, but note you'll have to kill a few Level 10 zombies as part of the task.

You say, 'Hail, Myrrie Sharden'

Myrrie Sharden says 'My foolish [brother] is going to get himself killed, and I can't even find him! I cannot believe I have to deal with this.'

You say, 'Brother?'

Myrrie Sharden says 'Forgive me. I am a hunter of undead, specialized in taking them down quickly. My brother envies my abilities, but he's always had a crippling fear of the undead. Apparently no more. He's run off, leaving a note saying he's going to prove himself to me, and I'm having to [hunt] him down.'

You say, 'I'll hunt him down'

Myrrie Sharden says 'I'd appreciate the help, if you're offering. Could you check Nektulos forest? I still have a few other places I want to check, but from what I understand that is one of the places he mentioned. Thank you.'

You have been assigned the task 'Not Afraid of Ghosts'.

Explore Nektulos Forest 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

Updates at location -250, -760.

Find Retahl Sharden 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

Retahl is found in Nektulos Forest at location -730, +140 (near the intersection in the road just north of the bridge).

You say, 'Hail, Retahl Sharden'

Retahl Sharden says 'Oh? My sister sent you? I'll show her I can stand toe-to-toe with the undead. I tell you, it's the strangest thing. I used to be so afraid. But now? Me? Fearless. My first order of business is to smash apart some of these skeletons! If you want to go ahead and look at them, that's fine, but save the undead-destroying for me.'

Destroy decaying skeletons 0/3 (Nektulos Forest)

Kill 3x "a decaying skeleton" in Nektulos Forest. These are found frequently at the wizard spires north of the Plane of Knowledge book.

Speak to Retahl 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

You say, 'Hail, Retahl Sharden'

Retahl Sharden says 'I can't believe it! The skeletons were supposed to be a warm up before I took on the zombies. Stop ruining this for me!'

Destroy Zombies 0/3 (Nektulos Forest)

Kill 3x "a zombie" in Nektulos Forest. The undead mobs in the southeast corner are usually skeletons, but occasionally spawn as zombies or mummies. They are also found rarely around the wizard spires or in the place of the more common zone trash.

Speak to Retahl 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

You say, 'Hail, Retahl Sharden'

Retahl Sharden says 'You are a true annoyance. I'm not talking to you anymore. You can go back and tell my Myrrie you failed! I'm not coming home until I destroy some undead.'

Return to Myrrie 0/1 (Erudin)

Hail Myrrie Sharden in Erudin and receive a letter to Retahl.

You say, 'Hail, Myrrie Sharden'

Myrrie Sharden says 'I appreciate what you've done so far. But he still refuses to go home? I think some extortion is in order then. Here, take this letter to him. This should hopefully change his tune.'

Deliver Myrrie's Letter 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

Give the letter to Retahl Sharden in Nektulos Forest.

Talk to Retahl 0/1 (Nektulos Forest)

You say, 'Hail, Retahl Sharden'

Retahl Sharden says 'Let's see what this letter says. Hm. Oh. She can't do that! I didn't even know she knew about that. No one is going to trust I'm the greatest undead slayer if Myrrie goes around telling everyone I used to wet the bed when - Wait, nevermind. Just tell her she won. I'll come home. But this isn't over yet! I'm not afraid of her, either. I just need a new plan.'

Report to Myrrie 0/1 (Erudin)

Hail Myrrie Sharden in Erudin to complete the task.

You say, 'Hail, Myrrie Sharden'

Retahl is safe and will be returning home to Erudin.

Myrrie Sharden says 'That should do the trick. Thank you. He may think he's got another plan ready, but once I get my hands on him, he'll have no further ideas like that. I really appreciate your help.'

I just slaughtered every living and undead mob around wizard spires, and got 3 zombies to spawn in about 5 minutes. Hope it helps.
Explore Nektulos Forest 0/1 NOT Toxxulia!

I am a fool. I was running around looking for the explore update in Toxxulia. No need for others to make my mistake. Yes, you have to hoof it all the way to Nektulos.

Rather Tedious 'running back and forth' task. Cannot imagine what the dev's were thinking when they created this. If you can bind and gate, do so next to the quest giver and save yourself a lot of irritation.

The "hard" part of this one is the rare zombie spawns in the SE corner by the runed stone. Having to camp one-shot grey cons was aggravating, not to mention the run back and forth between Erudin Docks and Nektulos.
