According to the book of folklore, the cure for ‘tainted blood’ comes from the spiders of the Blind Burrows. I only hope Aneta will be there.

I’ve found Aneta outside the entrance to the Blind Burrows, exhausted from the magic erupting from her. I hope I can help the poor girl.

Challenge Completed: The Heretic

Aneta’s mother Vera has risked her health by coming so far out into the wilds. Why is she here? I doubt it is out of concern for her daughter’s safety.

Aneta left her necklace behind when she left with Gulyas. I know how much it means to her. I should collect it and bring it to her.

The witch Gulyas said her home was between the eastern shore and a river. I should find Aneta, return her necklace, and make sure she’s all right.

It appears that the ritual was part of Gulyas’ attempt to calm Aneta’s uncontrolled magic.

Gulyas needs Aneta to gather rotting livers for what she described as a “unique rite” to control Aneta’s powers.

Aneta has gathered what she needs for this rite. We are to meet Gulyas in the Hidden Grove nearby.

Vera fled from the carnage inside the grove, and Aneta is following. I must catch up to them both before something terrible happens.

Aneta is still clearly mourning her mother, but she told me “the voices are finally quiet” as she walked off. Could this be the change she needed?

We’ve arrived at the first location. Aside from an infestation of Drowned, all seems quiet.

The first location was a bust, But Lyndon is convinced the second location will be the winner. Rodney has been giving him trouble lately.

• Begins just outside the Hungering Swamp after the previous quest.

Taissa intends to ask the other witches of Hawezar for their advice, but before she can, she needs me to retrieve her amulet from Timue’s house.

After speaking to Timue, I get the feeling things are cold between her and Taissa. Regardless, I must return Taissa’s amulet to her.

Taissa has forgotten she needs several of the magical eyes wielded by the Nangari Oracle. We will collect some together.

I have collected everything Taissa needs for her task. She has gone on ahead, but asked me to meet her near the Tree of Whispers.

Taissa will soon begin her ritual to summon the other witches of Hawezar to her. I can only hope they can give her whatever advice she needs to defeat the whispers of !Andariel.

We were almost overwhelmed by !Andariel’s whispers, but we were able to overcome them. I should make sure Taissa is alright.

Father Dymus, the priest of Zarbinzet has asked me to look for signs of his curate Symon who left on a journey with a stranger several weeks past. Symon’s journal page says they were headed to a ruined farmstead to the east.

A forgotten lockbox held another of Symon’s journal pages. It seems his companion is a swordsman who has promised him great knowledge. Their next stop is the statue of Tibault, further east.

Upon arriving at the statue of Tibault, I was set upon by distraught pilgrims. Apparently this one-eyed swordsman caused them great distress. Perhaps they know where Symon went next.

My heart sinks upon learning that Symon’s traveling companion was Elias. If true, it is hard to imagine that Symon still lives. Still, if there is even the smallest chance he is alive, I will continue on. The pilgrims directed me towards a refuge in the marshes marked by giant tusks.

Elias took Symon to the town of Backwater, on the eastern coast of Hawezar. What is his ultimate goal? What does he hope to find there? I suspect I will find more victims of the darkness Elias carries with him before long.

Elias took Symon to the town of Backwater, on the eastern coast of Hawezar. What is his ultimate goal? What does he hope to find there? I suspect I will find more victims of the darkness Elias carries with him before long.

I’ve learned that Elias and Symon came to the town in search of more hands to help them with their task. Only one returned: a sailor named Sev. I must find out what she knows.

After a small bribe, Sev was willing to tell me about Elias’s ultimate goal: the ruins of a town called Esret, forgotten in the southern wetlands. She showed me its location, and promised to meet me there, if only to face her fears of what occured there.

After a small bribe, Sev was willing to tell me about Elias’s ultimate goal: the ruins of a town called Esret, forgotten in the southern wetlands. She showed me its location, and promised to meet me there, if only to face her fears of what occured there.

Elias and his mercenaries broke through the floor of the Esret chapel and descended into the dark depths inside. I must prepare myself to do the same.

I should return Symon’s things to Father Dymus. He will be heartbroken by the news, but he deserves to know the truth.

• Found from chests in the Delusion of Zealots area of the Rotspill Delta, Hawezar near the Belfry Zakara dungeon. This is a random chance drop so may take a few tries.

I should see if Lyndon is interested in sharing a drink with me, as Kingsport ale is finer than the usual swill found in Backwater.

I should see if Lyndon is missing this crossbow. The carved name on it has his distinctively bad handwriting.
