Paladin Newbie Quest
Peverbian
Paladin newbie quest as far as I got. Am no where near high enough to
take the Trolls yet, but this is a good bit.
-Kairu, 5 Paladin of Mithaniel Marr
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Shin Master Grubbus says 'As I knew you would, you have found me. You
have even gone so far as to bring your letter with you. Very well done
indeed, young Shin Kairu. You may dispose of that note if you feel the
need; there is no longer use for it. Your training has already begun
and you have already proven you are not without ability. I trust you
have chosen this path because it is the most devout, and lends itself
directly to our creator, Mithaniel Marr. You will do well, I can
foresee it. First, though, you must make your way to the Bank and speak
with Banker Zlopps so he can instruct you on the importance of stowing
your valuables. I give you one such valuable now, a brooch. Keep it
with you as you journey as it will keep your soul close to Marr. Fare
well, young Shin, and may the light of Marr guide you always.
You have successfully spoken with your guildmaster! Now head to the
Bank and speak with Banker Zlopps!
Dar Banker Zlopps says 'Welcome at last, young Shin. Shin Master
Grubbus sent word of your arrival and I have been expecting you. It is
crucial that you understand how important the bank can be for you. You
can deposit any and all of your valuables into the bank for safekeeping
until you need them at some later time. You can invest and remove any
coin you may have gathered as well. I've just given you 5 gold, so why
not try it out? Put the gold in your bank and then take it back out
again. It's all quite easy to understand. When you are comfortable
with using the bank, make your way to the Armory for the next part of
your training. Good luck to you, young Shin.
You have successfully spoken with Banker Zlopps! Now head to the Armor
merchants to continue your training!
Hail, Zok Sevrana!
Zok Sevrana says 'Welcome, young one. I have been waiting for you to
show up. Word has spread rather quickly that your training is
progressing quite well; of this I am glad. Your next task is rather
simple, but is of the utmost importance. You must seek out
Quartermaster Grik and pass along a message for me. The message is that
the new front lives. make haste to him and return to me when you have
complete the mission so I know he received it. Good luck, Kairu.
You have spoken with the Armor merchant for the first time! Now head to
Quartermaster Grik to give him the message!
Quartermaster Grik says 'Ah, Kairu, I have been expecting you. I'm glad
you were so easily able to make your way to me, message still in tact.
You have done well in this endeavor and I urge you to hurry back to the
armor master who sent you to me. Inform them that I have received the
message successfully and all is well. You are indeed proving to be
quite the soldier in this grand Army. Thank you, Kairu and good luck!'
You have successfully delivered the message to Quartermaster Grik! Now
return tot he Armor vendors to complete your task!
Zok Sevrana says 'Well done, Kairu! You have proven that you can carry
an important message and in the doing have met our renowned
Quartermaster Grik. We are very please that you were so quickly and
efficiently able to deliver the message and return to me. You will most
assuredly do well in this Guktan Army. For you troubles, take this
piece of armor as a token of my appreciation, and as a token of your
continued excellence in training. Keep it up and more spoils may be on
the path before you.'
You were successful in giving the Quartermaster the message!
She glares at yoyu, as though she were looking through you, then says
'Make your way to the Mercantile. There you should speak with Zok Pirk.
He will instruct you on what will be needed of you next in your
training. Good luck to you, young one.'
Now seek out the appropriate Tradeskill merchant to continue your training!
Zok Pirk says 'Greetings to you, Kairu. I have been expecting your
visit and am glad you made such good time in coming to me. As you may
or may not have noticed, I am one of the resident jewlers here in Gukta,
serving the jewelling needs of our people for a respectable amount of
time. In general, I deal with high quality materials, but I have been
curious about the possibility of refining certain lower quality
materials to get a better one, thus decreasing my costs and increasing
my profits. I first need someone to go out into the swamp and find me
some cracked aquamarine so I can try to refine it into a more valuable
gem. You are that someone, Kairu, so please hurry there and retrieve my
cracked aquamarine so I can get started on my tests.'
Hailed and handed in aquamarine, got marine back, recieve cat's eye agate.
Zok pirk says "Ah, you have returned, and in pratcally no time at all.
Beyond that, you were able to retrieve the cracked aquamarine for me,
how very reliable you have proven to be in such a meager task. Indeed
this piece of your training was only a brief test and there will be more
to come, as there always are in the life of a soldier of the Guktan
Army. In any case, the cracked aquamarine truly holds no value to me,
it was just a test of your endurance, so you may dispose of it as you
see fit. You have done well, Kairu, and I see a great future for you.
Oh, I almost forgot...'
You were succesful in returning with the Cracked Aquamarine!
He ponders for a moment, then says without pause, 'Make your way to the
Lorekeeper's pit. there you should speak with Karuup. He will instruct
you on what will be needed of you next in your training. good luck to
you, young one."
Now make your way to the Lorekeeper's Pit to continue your training!
Rutka Karuup says 'You have arrived for you training, I presume? You
will learn that there is a great deal of information to be found about
the recent dealings we have had with the Trolls. Specifically, you
might be interested to learn about how our battle to overtake Grobb from
them went. Let me see, I have it here somewhere. . . Drat! I don't know
what happened to it. The page I'm looking for may still be out on the
battle front in the swamp. if you can go and retrieve it for me, I
would be most appreciative. We should strive to preserve our heritage
and history at any cost. Hurry now, young initiate!
*NOTE* This is the part that was leading to no end of annoyance last
night as there are only a few ground spawns on 10 minute timers. The
one I found was at -2400, -600 approx.
Rukta Karuup looks over the paper briefly before jotting down something
in a book. He looks up and says 'Well done, you have finished the task
assigned to you, and in short order, no less. I congratulate you on
your eagerness to learn and ability to complete such important errands
without hesitation. By bringing this to me, you have helped to keep the
history of our people in tact, and have proven to Marr that you serve
him fully. You will one day become a great soldier in the Army of
Gukta, Kairu. As for that parchment, I no longer have use for it, so
you may dispose of it as you see fit. Well done, once again and may the
strength of Marr be with you. Oh, I almost forgot. . .'
You were successful in returning with the Worn Battle Parchment!
He nods at your progress, then says 'Make your way to the Mercantile.
There you should speak with Zok Glag. He will instruct you on what will
be needed of you next in your training. Good luck to you, young one.
Now make your way to the Mercantile to continue your training!
You are the one they sent me to train? Hmm, you don't seem too terribly
impressive to me, but so be it. I offer up young starters like yourself
an early outlet to get supplies to keep them going for the Army. A
favorite pastime of a great many soldiers, of course, is fishing, which
I have supplies for. However, I was hoping to expand my supplies of
bait a bit, and I hear that spiderling eyes are great for luring fish
out of the water. I don't know if this is true but I need you to
retrieve one for me so I can test it out to determine if I'll start
stocking them. Hurry and retrieve one for me so I can get on with my
other business.'
Hail with eye
Zok Glag say 'Ah, there you are, and with the eye. You had no trouble
with that, I hope. Well, even if so, you are a soldier in the Guktan
Army, trouble and perhaps a littel bit of elbow grease is to be
expected. Either way, you've done well today and have returned what I
asked for in short order. Your speediness will be a benefit to you and
your comrades during times of war. In any case, it looks as though the
eye isn't as juicy for those little fish as we thought, so you can go
ahead and dispose of the eye as you see fit. You might want to find
someone to sell that to, I'm sure they'd give you a reasonable rate for
it. Oh, I almost forgot. . .'
You were successful in returning with the Spiderling Eye!
He looks at you briefly, then nods in assurance, 'Make your way to the
Tavern, there you should speak with
one of hte maids behind the bar named Lillis. She will instruct you on
what will be needed of you next in your training. Good luck to you,
young one.'
Zok Lillis says 'About time you got here. I've been waiting for someone
to help me retrieve something from the Quartermaster, but it seems
punctuality isn't the army's strong point. No matter, I simply need you
to go and retrieve from Quartermaster Grik a list of our recent patrons.
Usually he tallies it up and sends it over, but he's been a little
busy, what with everything else going on around here and hasn't yet had
a chance. In any case, tell him I sent you for the list and return to
me when you have retrieved it from him so I can get back to my other
duties.'
Hail Quartermaster Grik and say "I need the list of recent patrons."
Quartermaster Grik says 'oh yes, I've been meaning to get this list to
her, but just keep getting sidetracked. Please take it to her so she
can get back to her other, more important duties. You are turning out
to be quite the reliable soldier, I must say, Kairu. Keep up the good
work!'
Recieve a note
Zok Lillis says 'You made better time than I had hoped. Thank you for
bringing me the list, I'll now be able to get back to the more important
thing I have to do around here. I copied what I needed off of that
list, so you can dispose of it as you see fit. For being so quick about
it, pleae accept this drink, on the house. Oh, I almost forgot. . .'
You were succesful in returning with the List of Tavern Patrons!
She tosses you a quick glance, then says 'Make your way to the Garrison
Command. There you should speak with Gaz Sergeant Foppis. He will
instruct you on what will be needed of you next in your training. Good
luck to you, young one."
Now make your way to the Garrison Command to continue your training!
Gaz Sergeant Foppis is at loc 620, -625
Gaz Sergeant Foppis says 'Greetings, Kairu. You are standing before the
High Court of Gukta. No one but the most dedicated and honorable
soldiers may approach the High Court. It is this reason that you are
here, to further your training to prove that you are worthy of stepping
before them to seek their counsel. Before we will allow you to proceed,
you must prove that you are not here under false pretenses. The first
part of your assignment requires you to report to Innothule Swamp.
There you must find the hostile Trollish raiders and return to me one of
their heads. When you return and we have proof that you have finished
this task assigned to you, we will give you further instructions. Be off
now, and be hasty in your pursuit.
