Quest Overview
Harlune the Misanthrope has disappeared from the Mite Maze and the mysterious Roderick claims to be working on his behalf and asks you to deliver a diplomatic message on his behalf to the Falatacot on Bur.
- You must be Bur Flagged in order to complete this quest.
- Someone with Lockpick must open the doors in Mite Maze to access Roderick.
- You must maintain the Diplomatic Message from Harlune in your inventory throughout the quest.
Walk Through
- To flag, speak with Roderick in Mite Maze to obtain Diplomatic Message from Harlune.
- Note: If you don't receive the diplomatic message the first time, speak with him again until you do.
- From Bur (67.4N 30.5E), stick to the left wall until you reach the Kor-Gursha.
- Tip: Bur recall brings you to the Kor-Gursha drop.
- Continue east, passing the Collector Golem, until you reach Scout Leader Tmauruk. Speak to him, and then continue east to the Southern Catacombs portal.
- Stick right past Guruk and use the Rock next to Temple of the Three, Ritual Chambers portal to enter the Upper Catacombs.
- This must be the rock that Tmauruk told you about! You move it aside and swiftly enter the passage behind. The rock rolls back into place behind you.
- Rock teleports you with Access the Upper Catacomb.
- Use the statue inside the 4th room from the south in the back hallway (runs North and South) to enter the Falatacot Visitor's Alcove (see map).
- This is the statue that Roderick told you about. You activate it and are teleported away to the Falatacot Visitor's Alcove.
- Statue teleports you with Welcomed by the Blood Witches.
Falatacot Visitor's Alcove
- From the drop, head South, and take your first Right. Use the second door you find, and move through the linear dungeon until you reach a large room.
- Note: If you reach a pit, you have taken the wrong door. Do not jump into any pits, you will not be able to get out.
- Run straight ahead until you hit a floor plate, which triggers the spawn of a statue and about 10 undeads.
- Survive in the room until you receive a green message:
- The statue's eyes light up suddenly - it can be used again, you would surmise.
- Tip: Once you spawn the mob, retreat into the hallway and close the door until the statue charges.
- Use the statue to portal to the next stage.
- The statue whispers in your head, "You bear a message for the matriarchs. You may pass."
- Falatacot Warden Statue teleports you with Welcomed by the Blood Witches.
Welcomed by the Blood Witches (Part 1)
- From the drop, take your first right, and follow the linear path, until once again, you reach a large room.
- Run straight ahead until you hit the floor plate, which will trigger the statue and a spawn of seven Blood Priestesses and an Elite Zharalim Agent.
- Survive in the room until you receive another green message:
- The statue's eyes light up suddenly - it can be used again, you would surmise.
- Tip: Once you spawn the mob, retreat into the hallway and close the door until the statue charges.
- Use the statue to be teleported into the next stage.
- The statue whispers in your head, "You bear a message for the matriarchs. You may pass."
- Falatacot Warden Statue teleports you with Welcomed by the Blood Witches.
Welcomed by the Blood Witches (Part 2)
- Take the door to the east and speak with the Falatacot Herald. He will take your Diplomatic Message from Harlune and spawn a mob of creatures *.
- You hand over all of your Diplomatic Message from Harlunes.
- The Falatacot Herald reads the message from Harlune. At first, his aged face is impassive, but as he continues reading a visage of sheer fury appears.
- Tip: Immeditely after speaking to the Falatacot Herald, run up to the platform behind him. Mages and archers can perch from here.
- Note: Be careful the Laisu Sclavus casts Poison Health (20% lower health for 5 minutes) and there is no shortcut back.
- Kill the three Falatacot Blood Prophetesses, one of which will have a Falatacot Blood Prophetess Trinket on their corpse (drops 3).
- Tip: They are vulnerable to cold physcial attacks, and fire elemental attacks (undead slayer).
- Once you have a trinket, return to Mite Maze and give it to Roderick for your reward.
- Tip: If you talk to Roderick before handing in the trinket he will give you another Diplomatic Message. This will save you from having to make an extra trip to the Mite Maze the next time you do the quest.
- Note: If you speak to Roderick a 2nd time, he will give you a ride to Fort Tethana.
* Giving the note to the herald spawns a Thralled Guruk Reaper, Ancient Counselor, Falatacot Consort, Tortured Spirit, Infused Blood Golem, Laisu Sclavus and two Falatacot Blood Prophetesses.

Lore & Dialog
Town Crier tells you, "Rumor has it that Harlune has picked up and left the Mite Maze, though he still maintains a residence there. It might be worth finding out what's going on down there."
Town Crier tells you, "I've heard that Roderick, the bodyguard in the Mite Maze who's watching over Harlune's business, has some shady ties..."
Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "You know, I really admire that Harlune fellow. I mean, he taught Celcynd everything he knows, right? And Celcynd spends all of his time in a bar drinking! Clearly, Harlune is wise."
Roderick tells you, "Hmm...Ya think ya might be interested in doin' a favor for Harlune? Ya look tough enough to survive what he has in mind."
Roderick gives you Diplomatic Message from Harlune.
Roderick tells you, "The Falatacot Matriarchs sent him a message, ya see, askin' if he'd like to ally. Well, of course he don't - the Falatacot can't be trusted one bit. So he wants to send a message back...but ya know how Harlune can be."
Roderick tells you, "Anyways, he asked me to find some volunteers to deliver the mission. He didn't tell me to mention it, but I'll be nice and mention it anyways - the Falatacot ain't gonna be happy when they read the message."
Roderick tells you, "Here, take this and bring it to Bur. One of the statues up there should lead to a new place where ya can go and deliver the message, and then ya better be ready for a fight. If ya win, bring something back to prove to me that ya won."
Roderick tells you, "Ya have the note - what are ya doin' here still? Go to Bur and find the way to deliver that note. Ya need to use a new statue to get in - it's in a place that us Isparians ain't never been to before now. Don't forget to bring back proof ya won."
This is the statue that Roderick told you about. You activate it and are teleported away to the Falatacot Visitor's Alcove.

Falatacot Blood Prophetess says, "You would dare such insolence? Fear our wrath!"
Falatacot Herald tells you, "Why do you bother me, human? If you have nothing for me, leave!"
