Zone is south close to the Acadamy of arcaine science
Search for clues behind the mysterious ratfink behavior. Zone: Freeport Sewers
There are 4 parts to this, though the task only states one.
You must ckill mobs throughout the zone.

The items you are looking for are:
Looting the 1st corpse:
A light breeze fills the tunnel.

Looting the 2nd corpse:

Another section of transcript. The resembalnce to the first is uncanny.

Looting the 3rd corpse:
You notice something entirely out of the ordinary.
You have looted An Old Section of Transcript.
A third section? The begining of a trend perhaps.

Looting the 4th corpse:
Light breeze enters the tunnel.
You have looted An Old Section of Transcript.
Hrmm four sections of a transcript it seems unclear if they belong together or not. And what is that foul stench?


Search for the source of the foul stench. Zone: Freeport Sewers
This neads you north by north east to the large room. There is a small square room south where you will find Drehar the Demented, a level 70 Erudite male.

Speak with Drehar the Demented Zone: Freeport Swewers.
Here I tried many things, really I think you just hail him a few times. I hailed once, he asked something about 'Who are you? speak now" or something to that extent. He gives two similar messages, then his third response he wants you to give him something in return for his assistiance.

Convince Drehar to lure the mysterious Piper to his lair. Zone: Freeport Sewers
Third response given, mention the Piper.
Hand in the four transcripts.

Quickly, follow the crazed ratfink and stay out of sight. Zone: Freeport Sewers
Crazed ratfink spawns and starts moving to the nort west part of zone. It is best if you clear all the mobs in that direction prior to this step.

Confront the infamous Piper behind the Rafink infiltrations. Zone: Freeport Swewers
Crazed ratfink opens one of 5 chests, spawing the Piper: Finalan the Piper, Redcon Half elf to level 70. HE hits no harder than most of the other mobs you've been killing (trash mobs level ranginig from darkblue to yellow, most likely 69-71 for level 70's).

Return with proof of the Piper's demise to Plink Gemtosser. Zone: West Freeport.
The proof is on Piper's corpse : Alluring Flute of the Piper


Loot is on Piper's corpse.

Ours was: Chainmail Arms of the Avaricious

I'm guessing Leather Wristguard of the Avaricious is his alternate drop from lucy's numbers, but not confirmed.
