Objectives
Offer your services to Ren'khat against Grand Overspinner Antourix.
Description
You are the Weaver's "untethered third party?" Excellent. You are the perfect catalyst for a coup.
The City of Threads has sent an upstart here to seize control of Rak-Ahat.
The arrival of Ren'khat has everything all tangled up. He postures himself as some kind of silk visionary from the city, and he challenges the authority of the Overspinner who refused to relinquish control.
Bad for the Overspinner, good for us. Speak with Ren'khat and feed his ambition. Help him against the Overspinner.
Rewards
You will receive:
- 17 55
- 8,700 XP
Progress
What is this? An overcrawler? Here?
Completion
You... you are willing to help me achieve the brilliance of my art?
And you have no ties that could be traced back to me?
Perfect!
Notes
Upon approaching Teth:
- Teth says: Ah! You must be here to help with the... special shipments.
Upon accept of both quests:
- Teth says: Grand Overspinner Antourix is usually busy overseeing the whole of Rak-Ahat, in her office to the east.
- Teth says: Ren'khat has set up behind the western warehouse... I don't know if you could call it an office, really.
- Teth says: More of a sad collection of discount furniture.
Upon approaching Ren'khat in Rak-Ahat:
- Ren'khat says: I told you not to trouble me with more logistics, can't you see I'm ideating?
- Ren'khat says: Oh. You're no skitterling.
Ren'khat's gossip:
What is it? As you can see I'm very busy with very, VERY important work.
(Quest) I hear you're looking to stick it to the Overspinner.
(Quest) You are much more fashionable than the Overspinner.
- Ren'khat says: Is it obvious? Just look at me! I deserve to rule this place.
- Ren'khat says: That dusty old bat is so drab... it's past time for a new direction.
