Meet with Phago again and go through a script about how he lied to you and that he must pay. He spawns a carrion wyrm which you must kill, then you get sent on next quest.  Now he wants ten Amulets of Althuna which drop from any of the following:

* [[a paladin initiate]] and [[a Hand of Althuna]] which can be found in both north and South Newport.

{{note|If you choose to fight in Kaladim and you are bound with the blackscale faction then you should go ahead and loot the [[Spectral Amulet of Peity]] as they are needed once you get to the blackscale quests in Northern Kaladim.}}
 
  
Hand ten amulets to Phago.  You'll recieve 65,000 experience and an alignment adjustmentPhago gives you a [[Servant‘s Badge of Dis]], then sends you to talk to Dis, daughter of Marlow.
+
{{note|You may only start and finish one of the following two before moving onto the nextIf you are missing your notes, return to [[Lurek, Priest of Lore]] and get new ones.}}
  
===Mixing a Green Muse===

'''Quest giver:''' [[Dis, Daughter of Marlow]]<br />
 
'''Item(s) needed:''' [[Black Blood]], [[Savage Frenzy]], [[distilled terror]], [[a Crafted Vial of Marlow]]<br />
 
'''Reward(s):''' Improved Amulet of Marlow
 
  
You have to wander the maze and find [[Dis, Daughter of Marlow]]. Dis wants you to gain the trust of a corrupt paladin named [[Deirdre Grey]] then poison her with the [[Green Muse]]. {{note|She will also upgrade your Amulet of Marlow, but be advised that the recommended level increases to 65 and thus you cannot get back to Plane of Nightmare unless you are level 65.}}
+
Give '''A Note to Cillan''' to {{NPCtag|Councilor Cillan}} and complete [[Cillans Courier Service]]
 
 
After obtaining the quest from Dis, you have to talk to a dreampeddler at the area where you port in. He sends you after three ingrediants:
 
* [[Black Blood]] dropped off of wraiths commonly found in the badlands.
 
* [[Savage Frenzy]] this has to be brewed up by a rogue with close to 150 [[Make Poison]] skill and requires [[Lion Blood]] and [[wisterol]].
 
* [[distilled terror]] from [[eldernals]], random drop inside the castle.
 
 
 
To mix the Muse you need to be a high level alchemist as the finished product is no drop or you need [[a Crafted Vial of Marlow]] which can be bought from the goblin vendor found in Erimal for 500 platinum (by hailing him). However, you must have a [[Seeker Rune]] to get into the city, which is obtained from the [[Main Quest]].
 
 
 
===Of Misplaced Trust===
 
'''Quest giver:''' [[Dis, Daughter of Marlow]]<br />
 
'''Item(s) needed:''' N/A<br />
 
'''Reward(s):''' 10,200 experience points, [[Champion’s Badge of Dis]]
 
 
 
Once you have obtained [[Green Muse]] find Deirdre Grey in Kelethin (-215, -268). You must gain her trust in order to poison her with the Green Muse.
 
 
 
Deirdre is mistrustful, however, because of the dream sent by Dis she gives you a chance to prove yourself. First she sends you to collect 20 [[bone chips]] to show your devotion. You'll gain 200 experience points for this portion
 
 
 
Next she sends you to chase after a zombie that has eluded her wrath. You must kill [[a shambling abomination]] found in [[Cauldron of Dawn]]. You'll gain 10,000 experience points for this portion.{{note|This is a blue con to a 60 and only hits for 30-60 on my shd but hits very fast. It also has around 30k hp so takes awhile to kill with a duo.  It wanders from the northeast corner of map south along the shore. It goes down and around to the underwater entrance to Kedge keep and north to the island. It goes past the island and plays in the water a little before turning around to retrace its steps.  As a SHD or NEC you can use Sense the Dead to find it on the east side of map but when you get close to the portal, the portal is flagged as being undead so it messes up the sensor.  You can just stay on the island near the portal (-400, -850) and watch for the zombie as it will eventually wander paston the west side of the portal. It only spawns at night and has a respawn time of about 10 minutes.}}
 
 
 
The next task is to travel to the [[Towers of Agony]] to free one of the captives there. [[A tormented victim]] is being held by gibberlings in north east corner of zone, hail him to start a dialog after which a the mob will respawn as a level 65 [[chill touched victim]], quad hits for up to 300. Kill it and loot the shackles.
 
 
 
Return to Deirdre Grey and hand in the shackles. She will then ask for help killing and mob she will spawn. You answer her and she tells you to follow her to the ground below. The npc will spawn quickly (forgot the name, white con @lvl 65). Kill the npc (I assume you do not want Deirdre Grey to die here so be careful and take aggro asap). Deirdre Grey falls to the ground. Hail her and go through the chat then hand her the Green Muse
 
 
 
Return to Dis for new instructions and to upgrade your aug to [[Champion’s Badge of Dis]]
