Accompany Pelagos and explore your surroundings.
- Surroundings explored
Description
Did we... did we reach Zereth Mortis? And are we walking on water?
What a wondrous place! At least, from what I can tell through this fog.
I think I can make out a structure in the distance. Perhaps we will find answers there.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 25 74
- 8,150 XP
Progress
You do not seem to be agents of the Jailer... but I must be sure.
Completion
I will not abide agents of the Jailer defiling this land!
Notes
On accept, Pelagos starts accompanying the player.
- Pelagos says: The portal is gone. Perhaps the Mawsworn destroyed it behind us. I pray Kleia and the others are unharmed.
- Pelagos says: We cannot stop the Jailer alone. We must find a way back to Oribos so we can bring our allies through!
Automa Servitors mill around the area, tending to the structures. Upon approaching one:
- Pelagos says: These beings seem oblivious to our presence. Curious.
- Pelagos says: Um... hello?
- Automa Servitor says:
- Pelagos says: Did you understand any of that? It sounded like music... but also like language...
Head up the stairs to the gate, where Firim sits waiting with Barnaby and Polly. On approach, he stands up and turns to face the newcomers:
- Firim says: What is this?! More agents of the Jailer?
- Pelagos says: No! We have come to stop him! But we need a way back to our allies in Oribos. Will you help us?
- Firim says: Hmph. You appear far too confused to be Mawsworn. Come, let us speak.

In early builds, Firim and his vombata weren't present in front of the gate. Instead, players had to activate the Quadrangular Altar (spelled "Quadangular") and Triangular Altar before they could go through the gate and meet the broker. This objective was moved to the [60] Long Lost Firim quest, but the following dialogue from Pelagos was not kept.
- Approaching the gate
- Pelagos says: Look here! Some sort of gateway.
- Pelagos says: The gate seems to be locked. Hmm... these altars could be important.
- Pelagos says: Let's take a look around. There must be a way to open the door.
- Looting the
[Triangular Object] - Pelagos says: Hmm... This looks like it could fit into one of those altars.
- Looting the
[Quadrangular Object] - Pelagos says: The glyphs on that object... I wonder what they mean.
Once both altars were activated, the gate would open and reveal Firim, at which point dialogue between him and Pelagos identical to the live version would play out.
