Description

My people flee our homeland in droves. I sell trinkets to ease the journey.

But I see that you are not interested in trinkets... No, what you seek are answers.

Skettis lies just ahead. Once a great city built by Terokk as a refuge for the unwanted. Now a ruined slum.

An old storyteller lives there - a scrollkeeper named Reshad. Find him and speak these words: "Shadows gather." He will know you are a friend.

Now go. Your presence is bad for business.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 13 80
• 14500 XP
• +250 reputation with Arakkoa Outcasts

Progress

If you're here for some kind of legendary tome of unthinkable power, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I am merely a keeper of history.

I am also very busy at the moment.

Completion

Azik must have seen something in you. I will trust his judgment, for n-

<Reshad is interrupted as a warm gust of wind surges through the hut.>

Oh dear... they've arrived.

Notes

Keep heading south. On the way, you can hear something powering up and then a beam weapon is fired out from a tower in Skyreach at Veil Akraz, slowly raking across it:

Arakkoa Outcast says: They fired on Veil Akraz!

Arakkoa Outcast says: It's just... gone...

Arakkoa Outcast says: Come, we must go!

Keep following the path northeast into Skettis and find Reshad and Percy on the north end of town.

On approach

Reshad says: Percy, would you hold still?! How do you expect me to read it with you fluttering about like that?

Speak with him:

Eh? A traveler? It's a dangerous time to be in Skettis, you know.

 "Shadows gather..."

Reshad says: "...when the raven swallows the day." Who sent you?

On completion:

Reshad says: You want to know why my people flee Arak? Look outside. Our own kin fear and revile us for this curse!
