Find Sister Borlida (Dreadlands  at 722, 9723, 1068  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, Sister Borlida'

Sister Borlida says, 'What took you so long <Player Name>! We have much to discuss.'

You say, 'I came as fast as I could.'

Sister Borlida says, 'Well I'll be wanting you to rally a bit faster in the future. Are you ready for the rest of the plan? I've called a meeting with Nazdrak and Sortel, so if you are ready we can start it'

You say, 'Do NOT talk to me that way!'

Sister Borlida sighs. 'Your attitude does not impress me. To business? I've called a meeting with Nazdrak and Sortel, so if you are ready we can start it.

You say, 'Very well, start the meeting.'

Sister Borlida says, 'Sortel, it's time to start the meeting. Did you inform Nazdrak and Girix?'

Brother Sortel says, 'Yes, I did. He should be here by now. I don't-'

Tactician Nazdrak yells, 'I'm coming! Why bother inviting me to meetings if you aren't going to wait for me!'

Tactician Nazdrak pants a bit, catching his breath.

Sister Borlida says, 'Where is Girix?'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'He's coming. He went to collect the supplies from Kolsaz.'

Sister Borlida says, 'Very well, we'll start without him. Under recommendations from Rorlna, Master Kair`Got and I have decided to go ahead with the operation.'

Tactician Nazdrak nods then speaks, 'I think this is a wise course of action, but I have a few minor changes I'd like to suggest.'

Brother Sortel interrupts, 'I would like to voice one more time, that attacking so close to the Citadel of the Claw is reckless and stupid.'

Master Kair`Got says, 'Your concerns are noted Brother, but we have sat idly by for too long. If Rorlna says now is a good time to do some damage to them, I think we should follow through.'

Tactician Nazdrak continues, 'Originally we were going to have <Player Name> deliver the package and do the damage, but I think we have a very good opportunity to boost morale here.'

Sister Borlida says, 'I'm intrigued... Elael knows we could use some good news around here every now and again. What do you have in mind?'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'Essentially Girix and I will gather the supplies and get down to the Citadel. While we do that, <Player Name> will rally some of our people. Not the guards, just the regular people.'

Brother Sortel says, 'You would put our civilians in harm's way? How could you-'

Sister Borlida says, 'Let him finish Sortel.'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'Thank you Sister. There is no real risk, Kolsaz knows his poisons. The Citadel guards will be weak and the regular people will be able to kill them. We shall sit there and watch, making sure nothing goes wrong.

Master Kair`Got 'I approve of this change. Though Rorlna is not here at the moment to give her opinion, I think she would agree as well. This meeting is dismissed, go forward with the operation.'

Sortel, Borlida, and Nazdrak all bow.

Sister Borlida says, '<Player Name>, speak with me once more before you leave.'

Tactician Nazdrak takes his leave.

You say, 'Hail, Sister Borlida'

Sister Borlida says, 'Well I think that was all very clear. But I've learned your type doesn't always grasp the obvious, so I'll repeat it once more in layman's terms.'

You say, 'Very well what's the official briefing.'

Sister Borlida says, 'First, you are to speak with any of the more destitute of our people. Five should be more than sufficient. Tell them what they need to know. Once you have five of them willing to go, speak with Nazdrak and Girix.'

Your journal has been updated. [Shadows of War]

 

Journal Text: I've become the rally master it seems. I need to convince five destitute rebels to join the fight. After I have enough, I need to talk to Nazdrak.

You say, 'Simple enough, I'll get right on this.'

Sister Borlida says, 'One more thing <Player Name>. These are our people. Do not allow them to be killed, or it is on your head. Understand that.'

Note: You will need to find five (5) rebel civilians around the refuge camp they are only around during the daytime.

Find a rebel civilian (unknown zone  • unknown loc) .

You say, 'Hail, a rebel civilian'

a rebel civilian says, 'Hail, <Player Name>.'

You say, 'It's time to take a bit of pride back, I've chosen you to help with the Citadel attack.'

a rebel civilian says, 'Really? I've heard rumors we were going to do something... I'm honored to be chosen! I'll go find Tactician Nazdrak right away!'

Your faction standing with The Slave Rebellion has gotten better!

Find Tactician Nazdrak (Dreadlands  at 764, 9592, 1065  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, Tactician Nazdrak'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'When we are set for the operation, you'll be informed. For now do your assigned task.'

You say, 'I have rallied five people to help with the operation.'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'I know. They came to me, and have been outfitted. All that's left is to do it. Listen carefully <Player Name>. Speak with Kolsaz, and get his poison, while we go on ahead. Bring it to the rear of the Citadel of the Claw, and look for Girix. Rorlna assured us a patrol should be arriving back there soon. Understand so far?'

Your journal has been updated. [Shadows of War]

 

Journal Text: Ok then, quite a bit to take in, but the gist of it is get the poison from Kolsaz, find Girix behind the Citadel, and make sure everyone walks home. Time to get it done.

You say, 'Ya, sounds simple. Anything else?'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'This is a test for you by the way. Sortel trusts you, and wants this to happen, so you are the trigger. You'll choose when to launch the poison. It'll be your call when our people attack. It will be your responsibility to make sure they don't die. Most important it's up to you to make sure THEY kill the patrol. You getting the glory isn't going to help morale as much as them getting the killing shot. You are only to intervene to save their lives. Make sure you grasp that.'

Find Caretaker Kolsaz (Dreadlands  at 1038, 9258, 1068  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, Caretaker Kolsaz'

Caretaker Kolsaz says, 'Greetings <Player Name>. I'm a tad busy with my research at the moment, so unless it's important, I'd rather be left to it.'

You say, 'I'm here to collect the poison for the operation.'

Caretaker Kolsaz says, 'It's really more a REAL nasty weapon than just a mere poison. But I won't bore you with the details. I made a few, but try to get it right the first time.'

You receive Something REAL Nasty from Caretaker Kolsaz.

Note: Girix can be found near the middle of the eastern wall of the citadel between four pillars, represented as the red dot in the map picture below.

Note: Once the event is started, five (5) a Citadel patrol will spawn at the lightblue arrow and head north. Once they are at the green area you should tell Girix to use the poison first (be sure to give him the item), then tell him to launch the attack once all the mobs are couching and wheezing. A way to "cheese" this is to just spam the 'Launch the attack now!' dialogue to spawn 5 civilians per dialogue.

Girix whispers, 'There you are. We are all in position. Did you bring the poison?'

You say, 'Hail, Girix'

Girix says, 'Patrol is near. Poison you hand me. When time it is, signal to me, and our troops will attack. Timing is crucial.'

Give Girix:

• Something REAL Nasty

You say, 'Use the poison NOW!'

[Girix] throws the poison straight ahead!

a Citadel patrol coughs and weezes. 'Ambush! Rally and attack!'

You say, 'Launch the attack now!'

As soon as word you utter, the armed civilians jump out of hiding and rush the patrol.

an armed rebel says, 'I got one!'

You say, 'Hail, Girix'

Girix says, 'People, time it is to flee back home. A good thing you have done today. <Player Name>, I too shall leave, speak with Nazdrak back at base.'

Your journal has been updated. [Shadows of War]

 

Journal Text: The operation was a success! I am to return to Tactician Nazdrak for my debriefing.

Return to Tactician Nazdrak (Dreadlands  at 764, 9592, 1065  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, Tactician Nazdrak'

Tactician Nazdrak says, 'Amazing! That really could not have gone any better. The rebels you led returned and are spreading the tale. People are excited again! Really, we needed this badly. Sister Borlida wishes to speak with you, I'd suggest you don't keep her waiting.'

Your faction standing with The Slave Rebellion has gotten better!

Journal Text: Ok that's about that. Just need to speak with Brolida and its over

Return to Sister Borlida (Dreadlands  at 722, 9723, 1068  • Refuge) .

You say, 'Hail, Sister Borlida'

Sister Borlida says, 'Despite my trepidations, you have proven yourself truly loyal. The attack on the Citadel was of great use to us, and we're better off for it. If you wish to prove yourself further, you'll likely find others in the valley with more to do now. In any case, take this as a reward, and my thanks.'

You gain 60,000 experience!!
