Walkthrough

Find A gnoll priestess (Lake Starfall) (Lake Starfall  at 239, 2179, 58  • West wall Gnoll camp, Stands in front of the pillar) .

You say, 'Hail, a gnoll priestess'

a gnoll priestess says, 'Bark! Hail, <Player Name>! Please come to our village in peace, it is our way. Do not mistake us for our cousins in the depths of the Maw, or the violent plaguewind that roam the badlands.'

You say, 'Who are these plaguewind you speak of?'

a gnoll priestess says, 'In truth, the Plaguewind Gnolls that live along the shores of the Bad River were once of our tribe, and their homes ours. This was until the plague took them, and we were forced to flee lest we be afflicted as well, or slain by one of our former friends or lovers taken by the incessant rot. Bark! My husband was among those taken by the plague. He now rules over them, under a new name, in insane and decaying worship of the Lord of Plague. Each day I miss him and pray that he would be freed of the horrible specter of life that now upholds his body. Perhaps one day the Ocean Lord will listen.'

Journal Text: I freed the priestess's mate from his torment. She rewarded me with her only real possession, but I'm uncertain what use it will be.

Good option

Give to a gnoll priestess:

• Priestess' Spirit Staff

The gnoll priestess gently lifts the staff from your hands. 'You would help me at no cost? Bark! I... I don't know what to say. Thank you.' She cradles the staff in the crook of her arm and, for a moment, refuses to meet your gaze.

Your faction standing with Deepwater Tribe has gotten better!
