You say, 'business'

Tarl Punox says 'Business here is pretty bad. These folks have no needs and no desires, it seems. But I know of others not so far away that can use the services of an adventurer like yourself. I know the people and can put the right ones in touch with each other. You might able to benefit from my information, if you are [interested].'

You say, 'trinkets'

    Reward: Lesser Spirit of Decay (Collectible)

    In the chest was Buckler of Shimmering Light, Lesser Essence of Life, and Minor Essence of Life.

    Side Note: From the sound of the description under the quest I would guess that any mobs in the NE can drop Jewelry, any mobs in/around the mayor's building can drop the Encrypted Message and that any mobs found in the crater can drop the Sigil of Sul. The mobs listed above are simply the ones that gave me the drops.

    These bokon were not social with the citizens inside the building and were not difficult to pull, but they were higher level and had more HP than citizens.

    The skeleton guards that were just inside the doors were social with citizens though, and they were also tougher.

    So I killed all the boken to find out that they didn't drop any for me.

    A Gaunt Follower just dropped my first one since I started taking out what was left after the boken. It is possible to drop from *any* mobs in mayor's office.

    If you need to know how to zone in, it took me a few to figure it out.

    You use the item "Mirror Fragment of Anashti Sul" that you got as a reward for the previous quest, while in the Sul Vius zone.

    Pilfer some City Plans from the government offices in the south west and deliver them to Karth 0/2
    Open the Chest 0/1

    Get some Crypt Fungus from the crypts in the south and deliver them to Karth
    Pilfer some City Plans from the government officer in the south west and deliver them to Karth
    Open the chest

    --------

    Unless they changed the wording along the way, this is what I am seeing today. (Maybe the 110 version?) which is slightly different then above...

    Fungus and plans are both random mob drops for their area

    Not to worry about getting too lost as... they appropriate mobs will be the only ones up in the zone =)

    So is that 2 different versions or were the steps repeated in one version?

    By Task Add while in PoK I "completed" this Heroic task. The leader wrapped the task and closed the zone. I received a message, "You have rewards pending in your Heroic Adventure. Return there to claim them." I went to The Plane of Health and hailed Tarl Punox. I did not follow his text link as the instance had collapsed and I did not want to start a new one and furthermore, I had a task timer running from it. NOTE, there was a pop-in note that recognized I was there for a purpose ... a path ... that disappeared when I got to Tarl Punox. The question: Since I was not able to get into the Instance, this occasion of the Adventure will never resolve to show that I finished it? And taking the Task Add was to no avail?

    along with three spells.
    Also, I got the task steps...
    1. Retrieve Jewelry from the place they call The Heights to the northeast and deliver them to Karth.
    I headed northeast from Karth, and found the jewelry on citizens. I think they were ravenous.
    2. Find encrypted messages in the mayor's offices to the north and deliver them to Karth.
    I went to the northern building at the top of the staircases. I opened the main doors and started clearing, and had no luck until I cleared two bokons who both had the encrypted messages.

    Thanks, added your info as version #10 and formatted all quest entries to be a little easier to read.

    If anyone does any of the above versions and they look to be out of order or some info doesn't belong in that version, let me know.
