Grilhud the Hermit

Quest Overview

• The original two quests for turning Player Killer.

Follow in the footsteps of Y'leric Loredane, an Isparian who was one of the first to leave Asheron's protections by swearing allegiance to Bael'Zharon. He found one of the Hopeslayer's altars inside a dungeon in the Direlands.

The Warning Letter written by Y'leric is found at both quest NPCs.

Lore & Dialog

• Loredane's Invitation

---

Grilhud the Hermit tells you, "Safety-weary traveler, seek you true danger from others like yourself?"
Grilhud the Hermit tells you, "Then I will give you a shortcut to that which you seek. This is my service to those who wish to be free of Asheron's bonds."
Grilhud the Hermit tells you, "Bring me the Broken Sigil from the dungeon to the south, and I will give you the shortcut you desire!"

You give Grilhud the Hermit Broken Sigil.
Grilhud the Hermit says, "Ah, yes, that's it, that's it!"
Grilhud the Hermit says, "Here, let me grant you the shortcut. May your journeys be blessed with danger, just as Loredane's was."

Drunken Madman tells you, "If that is what you desire, then fetch me a good drink of sake, and I shall grant your wish. Otherwise, leave this place. Hee, hee!"

Drunken Madman says, "Ah, a drink! Hee, hee!"
