This group mission is the fourth in a series of five. It follows the group task 'Bronzebeard's Fate', after which Larquin Fangbreaker sends you to speak with Maria Starforge. Both of them are found in the Loping Plains in the Fang Breakers camp near the zone-in from the Steamfont Mountains.
At the end of the previous task:
Larquin's eye's grow wide with horror as you relay the fate of his friend Hurley. 'These beasts will [pay] for what they did to Bronzebeard. I swear it on my life!'
You say, 'Let's make them pay!'
Larquin Fangbreaker's eyes betray the merest hint of sorrow as you speak with him. His voice resonates with the sound of impending thunder, 'The orcs shall pay for what they did to bronzebeard. Be certain of that _____. But first we have a more pressing matter to attend to. The elvish spirits in the fortress have been driven into a frenzy recently and we're not sure why. It's time to take them out of the equation before Ralkor does something even more awful to their tormented spirits. Speak with Maria Starforge, she'll give you more information.'
Maria Starforge is found in the same NPC camp.
You say, 'Hail, Maria Starforge'
Maria Starforge says 'You have been a great help _____. The spirits of Kor`therin owe you much. Larquin has told me he has several important assignments for you when you're ready.'
You have been assigned the task 'The Departed'.
Maria Starforge has asked you to enter Bloodmoon Keep and free the cursed spirits of the elves that haunt the area around the Tunarian Temple. She has also asked that you cleanse the temple by using the Moondancer Pendant.
1. Kill 10 elvish ghosts 0/10 (Bloodmoon Keep)
2. 10 blight speakers 0/10 (Bloodmoon Keep)
3. 10 shadow priests 0/10 (Bloodmoon Keep)
4. Cleanse the Temple of Tunare 0/1 (Bloodmoon Keep)
5. Speak to Maria Starforge 0/1 (Loping Plains)
The player who requests the task receives "Moondancer Pendant", which has the effect "Tunare's Purity", used to complete the last step.
After clearing up to the final room in the undead wing you will see on the dias "The Spirit of Falstaff" and several other ghosts. The spirit hits for ~4,000 and summons mezzable adds ("a hungry spirit") that cast an unresistable single-target charm spell, "Possession"
Take him to 10-20%, at which point you will see the emote:
The Spirit of Falstaff's form shifts in and out of your vision. It seems very weak.
Click the Moondancer Pendant to finish him off. If you keep DPS'ing him, he will regenerate health. If you accidentally kill him, this is fine. Falstaff Moondancer will spawn regardless. Kill the remaining adds and hail Falstaff for the task update.
Falstaff Moondancer says by the gods! I am finally free! For centuries I have been trapped here in this temple unable to control the actions of my cursed spirit. Forever cursed to watch in torment as my spirit commited unspeakable acts at the beckoning of the curse. My only solace was that energy of the temple was able to keep the orcs from consuming all of the spirits of my brethren. You were sent by Maria Starforge? This is almost impossible to believe. Perhaps we can yet save the spirits that have been consumed by Ralkor and his malignant crystals. Take these letters to Maria. It explains Ralkor methods for using the crystals and may provide some insight into how to defeat him and free the spirits of my fellow elves.
6. Deliver 1 Falsattf's Letters to Maria Starforge 0/1 (Loping Plains)
You receive a letter, "Falsattf's Letters" (sic), which must be brought to Maria Starforge.
Maria Starforge says, 'We must learn more of these crystals that Falstaff mentioned. Perhaps the slaves in the [mines] have some first hand knowledge of these crystals.'
As you recount the events inside the temple Maria's eyes gleam with hope. What!? The temple still stands and remains consecrated ground of Tunare? Falstaff must be a powerful paladin indeed to have held back the power of the curse for so long. We must help him in whatever way we can. I will dispatch a messenger to Felwithe immediately to inform them. We must learn more of these crystals that Falstaff mentioned. Perhaps the slaves in the [mines] have some first hand knowledge of these crystals.
