Stalker Gelizal says, 'These walking corpses are familiar... they are the members of my original hunting party. There is something strange about this place. Something that denies peace to the dead.'

Stalker Gelizal pauses for a brief moment in thought.

Stalker Gelizal says, 'I have need of your help, if you are willing come speak with me.'

You say, 'Hail, Stalker Gelizal'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'Five of us that traveled out to this land originally, to explore what was beyond the Murk. We set up camp east of here in a small gully that lies against the mountains. We were inexperienced, foolish and also ignorant of what we were surrounded by. I was the only one left alive to realize what fools we were.'

You say, 'What happened?

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'I was to head back to the Murk alone to give a report of a safe and peaceful land. Or so we thought. I headed to the cave passage that leads back to the Murk, and I was beset by a creature that I had never seen before. I know now that it was one of the brood of the creature we call Talin. I was able to make it into the water and outswim the monster, but when I returned to our camp I found that my companions had not been so lucky. The camp was torn to pieces, I never found the bodies.'

You say, 'It appears all four died.'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'They must have been dragged off by the same creatures I encountered. I waited long to return to the Murk, searching for their remains, but I never found them. This note confirms my suspicions, but you have yet to hear the worst. My compatriots' souls are unsettled. I ask you on their behalf, to help me in putting them to rest.'

Alignment choices

[D1] - No shift

You say, 'What would you have me do?'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'I would like you to locate their remains, and collect them for proper burial. They are likely somewhere near the ruins, Talin's children frequent the area. I believe that just doing that would be enough to stop whatever haunts them. I cannot leave my watch here at the camp to aid you in your search, and truth be told I have no desire to see what Talin's brood left of my friends. You may be able to pick up a trail at our abandoned camp to the East, and follow it to their final resting place.'

[D2] - Chaotic shift

You say, 'Your friends are meaningless to me. But a reward is not.'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'I would like you to locate their remains, and collect them for proper burial. They are likely somewhere near the ruins, Talin's children frequent the area. I believe that just doing that would be enough to stop whatever haunts them. I cannot leave my watch here at the camp to aid you in your search, and truth be told I have no desire to see what Talin's brood left of my friends. You may be able to pick up a trail at our abandoned camp to the East, and follow it to their final resting place.'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'You can make demands after you help me. IF you succeed. To put my friends to rest I need to give their remains a proper gruplok ceremony. To do that, I need whatever remains you can collect. I would aid in your search, but I must remain here to guard the camp. If you begin at our abandoned camp to the East, you may be able to pick up the trail.'

[D3] - Lawful shift

You say, 'I will help your friends find peace in death.'

Final Step

Return to Stalker Gelizal (The Remnants of Old Ikild  at 2340, 4630, -340  • Gruplok outpost) .

You say, 'Hail, Stalker Gelizal'

Stalker Gelizal tells you, 'The great raptor Talin. The way he goes in for every kill is unique, and devastating. He throws back his head and springs forward, the impact of his bulk throwing them to the ground and shattering their legs, setting him up for a single decapitating bite. It is cruel, but a tactic I have seen it employ many times with great success. I am sure Talin is where you will find Giyer's head... Talin is not to be trifled with <Player Name>, you will need all the help you can muster.'
