With pre-requisites:

You say, 'Hail, Reklor Irespine'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Since my [revelation], I have devoted every waking minute to uncovering the truth surrounding the sentry stones. The Nitore will have you believe that the stones they prominently display are the only stones in existence, yet you and I both know that not to be true. I believe that the Nitore have [hidden] away many more stones, possibly to stifle the voices that speak of things other than beauty.'

You say, 'What about your revelation?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Do you really wish to hear my history? It will surprise you, I'm sure. While my [story] doesn't directly involve the task at hand, I suppose it could shed some light on why I'm still here.'

You say, 'What's your story?'

Reklor Irespine speaks with a reminiscent smile, 'It has been quite some time since I left my studies in Sarith to follow my kin and alir dream of finding peace and purity at the edge of the temple. While I'd originally thought I'd find myself bored and uninspired, I instead found a mentor in Chancellor Corcelia, who insisted she saw a light within me. Before too long I, myself, became a mindful [member] of the Nitore, praising purity and shunning anything that didn't shine in the resplendent light that Ladrys had bestowed upon us.'

You say, 'You were a member?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Over time I abandoned my cerebral studies, instead focusing my full attention on how to [rid] myself of decay and achieve the highest form of beauty. Still a mortal being at my core, my body inched closer to death every day. This was not suitable for someone so obsessed with perfection. I was not alone in my ideals, however.'

You say, 'How did you rid yourself of it?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Long before the first stones were placed to erect this temple, the Nitore had devised a way to separate the purity and [waste] within one's soul. The former consumed by the cleansed to feed their insatiable hunger for perfestion, and the latter, discreetly disposed of and left to fester.'

You say, 'Waste?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Many would believe this temple was constructed to house the splendor that the Nitore claim to hold in such high regard, but the truth is something much more sinister. The beautiful walls designed to retain resplendence, were in fact built to cover up the pit of waste that grew along with the Nitore's aesthetic [greed].'

You say, 'Greed?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Without much interest in anything other than perfection, I spent my days praying to the sentry stones, hoping they would sing songs of beauty in my presence. For days and days I sat, surrounded by nothing but silence. After nearly a week without moving, I finally heard a faint whisper from within the sentry stone, yet it was nothing like I had expected. The soft, sweet song I had hoped to hear instead manifested in a guttural tone that gnawed at my ears. The [voice] hissed of disease and decay, beckoning me to venture beneath the temple and bask in filth.'

You say, 'What voice?'

Reklor Irespine shakes alir head at the memory still fresh in alir mind, 'I thought I must be going crazy. How could these relics of beauty praise such imperfection? That haunting question was enough to ignite the spark of curiosity within me once again, and from that day forth I spent my time buried in research, determined to uncover the truth surrounding the sentry stones.'

You say, 'Where have the Nitore hidden more stones?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'You have already found a stone beneath the temple that I hadn't discovered. Why couldn't there be more? I'd say the stone's desire for my death is a clear indication that my research is headed in the right direction. Will you [help] me, _____?'

You say, 'I'll help'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'I am very grateful. It is a lonely eyistence, living as a shrouded outsider amidst the Nitore. My purity has already been called into question. I fear what would become of me if I were caught searching the in-between for stones that aren't supposed to exist. You on the other hand, could travel into the [depths] of the temple almost unnoticed.'

You say, 'The depths?'

Reklor Irespine nods, 'The in-between is where I believe our search should start. Let me know when you are ready to [begin], and I hill see that you get there safely.'

You have been assigned the task 'Secrets of the Stones'.

Reklor Irespine has asked that you locate and destroy any sentry stones found within the temple, collecting any stone fragments in the process.

You say, 'Ready to begin!'

Reklor Irespine leads you to the in-between beneath the temple.

Speak to Reklor Irespine 0/1 (Resplendent Temple)

You say, 'Hail, Reklor Irespine'

Reklor Irespine takes special care when handling the stone fragments, gently turning each piece until it locks firmly with another. A rush of whispers roll through the air as the focused Alaran reassembles the fragments to form something new. With a bit of reluctance and an unsteady hand, Reklor gives you the [reconstructed] stones.

You receive 5x "Reconstructed Sentry Stone".

You say, 'What about these reconstructed stones?'

Reklor Irespine says, in Alaran, 'Place one of these stones in each of the alcoves surrounding this room. If my research is correct, we should be able to summon whatever it is that speaks through these stones.'

Place the reconstructed sentry stones in the alcoves around the room 0/5 (Resplendent Temple)

Right-click the stones in each of the five small alcoves around the room. As you do the last one, be ready for a fight.

Speak with Reklor Irespine 0/1 (Resplendent Temple)

Task Window Says: The visibly weakened Reklor Irespine beckons you to ali.

You say, 'Hail, Reklor Irespine'

Reklor Irespine uses what little strength al has to stand and face you, a wave of regret washing over alir face, 'What have I done? Please tell me you aren't hurt! I could never forgive myself...' The distraught Alaran motions slowly to the back room, 'You'll find a trunk that contains my most valued possessions in the room to the south west. Please, take whatever you wish. It is the only way I will absolve this guilt over what I have done.'

Claim your reward from the ornate chest 0/1 (Resplendent Temple)

Task Window Says: Reklor Irespine has offered you a reward for your invaluable help.

While assisting Reklor Irespine in alir research, you managed to discover many sentry stones within the Resplendent Temple that hold unusual power.

Reklor Irespine speaks with a sense of urgency, 'I suggest we [leave] at once, before whatever possessed me returns.'

You say, 'I wish to leave'
