Quest text for quest 15 in the Keikolin series:

Quote:

You say, 'Hail, Keikolin the Enlightened'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Vasha, my child of enlightenment. You are born into The Chalice -- the name given all creatures of the golden dragon who are compelled to seek the knowledge of the ages. Not only must you seek to educate yourself, but also use your reason to apply your knowledge. As your mother, I can help to open your mind so it becomes an open vessel into which we may pour knowledge. Is it your wish to [fulfill] your calling as one of The Chalice?'
You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'And so we find ourselves discussing your last lesson. It has been such a pleasure watching you advance and feeling your mind broaden and open much like a chalice. Of course, this is only appropriate. If you learn this lesson well, you will become one with The Chalice and I am able to proudly call you my child of Enlightenment. I send you to kill Kellet, a great warrior giant who threatens all dragons who fly overhead. You must anticipate his strategy and strengths. It will not be easy. Veeshan be with you, Yasashii.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Kellet 0/1 - Valdeholm
Deliver 1 Head of Kellet to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

For this final part, make your way out to Valdeholm, which is off of Icefall Glacier. Go all the way up near the north gate in Valdeholm, but don't go through the gate, go into the house that is west of the area in front of the gate. There are several giants here on the ground floor, and then several more upstairs including some that are "sleeping". We killed everything in the entire house for 5 cycles, and then on the 6th cycle he spawned for us upstairs near the bunks on the left side, aprox loc (+2500, -910, +363). He conned white to a level 81 and somewhere between 75% and 60% he spawned two adds, both were 'a royal guardsman' and seemed just like regular mobs. If you're trying to do this one at the proper level, you might want to bring some help. If you're doing it late like me, ;P, he's not too bad.

Quote:

You gain group leadership experience!
You gain party experience!
Kellet, Royal Guard Captain's corpse pitches forward and bleeds across the ice.
Firsona backstabs Kellet, Royal Guard Captain for 1062 points of damage.
Kellet, Royal Guard Captain has been slain by Firsona!
You receive 15 platinum as your split.
--You have looted a Head of Kellet.--
Your task 'Strengthening the Blood' has been updated.
The harmony surrounds you.

Your Location is 2502.25, -908.76, 362.72

I then made my final return to Keikolin to give him the Head of Kellet:

Quest text for quest 14 in the Keikolin series:

Quote:

You say, 'Hail, Keikolin the Enlightened'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Vasha, my child of enlightenment. You are born into The
Chalice -- the name given all creatures of the golden dragon who are compelled to seek the knowledge of the ages.
Not only must you seek to educate yourself, but also use your reason to apply your knowledge. As your mother, I can
help to open your mind so it becomes an open vessel into which we may pour knowledge. Is it your wish to [fulfill]
your calling as one of The Chalice?'
You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'The dragons of Norrath have had many conflicts with
dragons over the centuries. In the Serpent Spine Mountains, we once again find conflict within the eastern peaks.
Here, Dyn'leth raises and army bent upon our destruction. His necromancers raise the dead, creating horrific
creatures to enslave our children. In order to defeat this enemy, we must learn more about it. Within the mines
of Vergalid you will find a powerful bone golem called Velosk that tortures our kind. I ask you to find this
creature, study it, examine the magic used to create it, and then destroy it. I believe you will need that
knowledge deeper into the mountains.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Skull of Velosk 0/1 - Vergalid Mines
Deliver 1 Skull of Velosk to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

For this part, head to the Vergalid Mines, which are located on the east side of Sunderock Springs. To get to the area you need, you'll either need to do the quest Access to the Ancient Ruins (Inner Vergalid) or you'll need someone who has the key to summon you down or corpse drag you across and res you on the other side. Camping for Velosk took me two, six hour sittings before I finally got him to show his face. I killed everything in the pools above the "pit o doom" area down to the single 'a bone grafter' that spawns way down the "spiral". The location that spawned him for me was the pool right next to the hallway that leads to the spiral section. Pulled him back into the hallway near (+57, -1560, -500) and killed him.

You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'In our time together, we have seen many diseases and
illnesses that thrive in the land. Very rarely do we find a beast that wields a powerful sickness as a weapon. We
have found one living in Sunderock Springs that calls itself Serravok the Plague Wind. What is troubling is that
Serravok is the kin of wyrms. As much as your heart may want you to reason with Serravok, do not. It has turned to
evil and is lost to us. You must kill it, though. We cannot allow it to live.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Serravok 0/1 - Sunderock Springs
Deliver 1 Head of Serravok to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Return to Sunderock Springs and head to the plateau where Skyrake resides. When I arrived, I was lucky and Serravok of the Plague Wind was already up. If it's not up, just kill the other drakes that are on the plateau with Skyrake. You don't need to kill Skyrake unless you want to or he's in your way ;P. Serravok seemed to just wander around most of that plateau, we killed him near loc (+1903, +734, +526).

Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Vasha, once again Yasashii. I can sense your mind
broadening, eager to receive knowledge of the world. I would like to open your eyes to a creature that shares some
similarities with us -- the snake. An ancient snake in Sunderock Springs named Razorfang is a good example. It
carries with it some of the basest qualities of what most consider serpentine -- something we are often called or
compared to. I want you to go and examine this ancient snake coax it into attacking you. You will see then there
are more differences between us than similarities.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Razorfang 0/1 - Sunderock Springs
Deliver 1 Head of Razorfang to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Run out to Sunderock Springs and head over to the snake area and kill all of the eggtenders. On my third clearing, Razorfang spawned around (-3053, +1498, +28).

Quote:

Keikolin the Enlightened says 'We ought to respect and admire the uniqueness of
everything around us. That does not mean that we must let those that trouble and threaten us or those around them
live. What is important for you to learn is that you should not kill anything unique without learning something of
it first, or its existence is wasted -- and all things have a place in our world. A sprightly nymph named Ionela is
becoming a nuisance in Goru`kar Mesa and has gone so far as to taint the Serpent River with magic simply to play a
prank. That won't do. She must pay for her indiscretion.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Ionela's Wings 0/1 - Goru`kar Mesa
Deliver 1 Ionela's Wings to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Head back out to Goru`kar Mesa and run up to the northern part of the zone. Stay on the east side of the stream and you'll eventually get to a pond with several potamids around it. I'm not sure if Ionela's spawn location is static, but I cleared five rounds of all the potemids there except for Queen Nhyalea and she finally spawned near (+1660, -20, +70).

Quote:

You crush Ionela for 144 points of damage.

Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Another unique and sentient creature that has become afflicted by a disease is Nestor, a centaur that resides in Goru`kar Mesa. You will come to learn that your mind must always hold sway over your heart. Nestor came to the drakkin for help with the illness that plagues him. In doing so, he killed all the drakkin he came near to. I hope you understand that logic must rule in this case. By killing Nestor, we can preserve our kind and also learn about the nature of his illness without becoming endangered ourselves.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Nestor 0/1 - Goru`kar Mesa
Deliver 1 Head of Nestor to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Next part was pretty straight forward. I zoned over to Goru`kar Mesa from Blightfire Moors and ran around the right-hand edge of the map until I got to the centaurs. Searched around for Nestor until I found him up near loc (+623, -609, +24).

You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'You learn quickly, Yasashii, and you follow instructions very well. Must like the
Enchanted Shrubbery you encountered before, there is another creature moved by magic that has become corrupted and
must be killed. It is a tree spirit known as Refugiu. In this case, however, a wayward nature spirit inhabited the
tree and motivates it to do evil. We must kill it and have it serve to broaden your knowledge of the world.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Branch from Refugiu 0/1 - Goru`kar Mesa
Deliver 1 Branch from Refugiu to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Head out to the Goru`kar Mesa a bit east of the Blackfeather Roost zoneline where there are several griffons and harpies. Refugiu or his ph will spawn in this area with a 75ish minute respawn timer. The ph is 'a rotwood strangler'. This is potentially a very frustrating part of the quest-line. I got lucky and Refugiu showed his ugly face after only 4 ph's. The rough location when I brought him down was around (+1265, +1991, +23).

You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Your aptitude for learning is impressive, Yasashii. I now pit you against a sentient creature that is a perfect example of an evolution of a species through magical means. You see, many years ago, in the Battle of Bloody Kithicor near Rivervale where the bixies harvest, the Prince of Hate, Innoruuk, opened a portal to the Plane of Hate to save his daughter, Lanys T`Vyl. In doing that, the entire forest became tainted, subtly. By consuming magically tainted material from the forest, the bixies eventually evolved. I am sending you to examine and kill Poisonmaker Maliza who has made several attempts on the lives of the Six so you may learn about the evolved bixies.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Poisonmaker Maliza's Stinger 0/1 - Stone Hive
Deliver 1 Poisonmaker Maliza's Stinger to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Now back to Stone Hive to hunt down Poisonmaker Maliza. For this part, go inside the big hive and into the big room on the 1st floor. Go up the double 'staircase' (doesn't matter which side). Once you go through the archway, turn right and go down that hallway until you get to a 'lift'. Take the lift up, and you should be in the area that has Alchemist Krizzia. When I got there, the ph was up (a bixie poisonmaker), and it wanders on the little walkway above that room. Cleared the room 3 times and then Poisonmaker Maliza spawned on the next cycle at roughly (+107, -138, +289) on the little walkway above the room.

Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Let us review simply -- you have seen beings altered or existing through a variety of means. Most of them make logical sense. As you may or may not have seen thus far, there are those that seem somewhat illogical, like a plant or tree that lives through magic alone. You will find one of these in Stone Hive. Unlike similar animated flora around it, it has grown evil and must be killed. It is known as the Enchanted Shrubbery. Go study it and bring me proof that its life, magical or otherwise, is no more.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Vines from Enchanted Shrubbery 0/1 - Stone Hive
Deliver 1 Enchanted Vines to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

The Enchanted Shrubbery is in the zone Stone Hive. I ran around and killed all of the "stump" looking creatures I could find. On my third clearing of creatures, it finally spawned in the area just north of the big hive around the /loc (+417, -2, -38).

If you have not gathered, I was hoping you would learn that for every step you take and every beast of nature or blade of grass, weapon, or brethren you come across there is something to learn. Sometimes, just the process of considering the origin of a creature, a blade of grass, is enough. It is our lot to be always curious. With that in mind, I want you to hunt a spirit beast known as Duskfall. It exists between the mortal and nature spirit realm -- between the day and eve.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Duskfall 0/1 - Blightfire Moors
Deliver 1 Head of Duskfall to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

Headed back out to Blightfire Moor from Crescent Reach. This one took a bit longer. I spent about an hour roaming around the area with the ghostpack wolves in it with no luck. Then a guildmate with track logged in and gave me a hand. We found it near (+1639, -2666, +121). I doubt that it spawned there, it was definitely roaming. I suggest bringing along a friendly tracker for this one if you are not one yourself, it will probably save you alot of time ;) . Also, Duskfall can see invis.

Here's the quest text from part 5:

Quote:

You say, 'Hail, Keikolin the Enlightened'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Vasha, my child of enlightenment. You are born into The Chalice -- the name given all creatures of the golden dragon who are compelled to seek the knowledge of the ages. Not only must you seek to educate yourself, but also use your reason to apply your knowledge. As your mother, I can help to open your mind so it becomes an open vessel into which we may pour knowledge. Is it your wish to [fulfill] your calling as one of The Chalice?'
You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Remember when we discussed Bloodmaw, the bear of Crescent Reach that grew stronger than all the others? I have been told a similar case can be found in Blightfire Moors through a sporali named Dragoneater. Just as its name suggests, it is sentient fungus easily able to digest the flesh of dragons and dragon kind, which includes you. Clearly Dragoneater is a threat and must be killed, but the real question is whether it gained this ability to eat magical flesh and scales naturally or if it was subject to a magical spell. These questions often plague us and there is not always a way to know.'
You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Eye of Dragoneater 0/1 - Blightfire Moors
Deliver 1 Eye of Dragoneater to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

I then returned to Blightfire Moors from Crescent Reach and headed to the sporali camp. When I got there, Dragoneater was up just on the other side of the big dragon bones, roughly (+933, +6, +17).

Quote:

Your Location is 933.44, 6.36, 17.21
Yasashii hit Dragoneater for 2680 points of non-melee damage.
Dragoneater's corpse falls.
Dragoneater's body is struck by an upheaval of the land.
You have slain Dragoneater!
--You have looted a Eye of Dragoneater.--

Afterwards, I again returned to Keikolin in Crescent Reach and turned in the Eye of Dragoneater.

Wasn't sure where to put this, but this is the text from 'Breath of Keikolin #4: Strengthening the Blood' :

Quote:

Keikolin the Enlightened says 'Vasha, my child of enlightenment. You are born into The Chalice -- the name given all creatures of the golden dragon who are compelled to seek the knowledge of the ages.

You say, 'It is my wish to fulfill my calling'
Keikolin the Enlightened says 'I believe you are ready to expand your horizons and learn your next lesson in the Blightfire Moors. There are many illnesses in our lands, some created from magic and some created by viruses and bacteria that flourish in our bodies. One illustration of a very virile and dangerous disease is Plaguebringer, a rat in the Blightfire Moors. That rat threatens all the creatures of this region. Use your intellect and skills to kill the rat without contracting the plague it carries.'

You have been assigned the task 'Strengthening the Blood'.

Collect 1 Head of Plaguebringer 0/1 - Blightfire Moors
Deliver 1 Head of Plaguebringer to Keikolin the Enlightened 0/1 - Crescent Reach

I went out to Blightfire Moors from Crescent Reach and just off of the road I saw Plaguebringer at roughly (-771, +2634, +5).

Quote:

Your Location is -770.55, 2634.35, 5.30
Plaguebringer's corpse whimpers pitifully as it falls.
--You have looted a Head of Plaguebringer--

I then returned to Keikolin in Crescent Reach and turned in the head:
