== Quest Overview ==
This is a popular quest due to its short repeat timer and being quick to complete. You can either kill Rytheran to take his mnemosyne and visage, or retrieve his ring and return it to him for the same items.

== Walk Through ==
#Speak to either [[Lacarra Avanthi]] at 61.8S 51.3W or [[Zho Heishan]] at 61.9S 51.4W, both in [[Wai Jhou]]. Lacarra is associated with the [[Radiant Blood]] and Zho is associated with the [[Celestial Hand]]. Pick the one depending on which faction you are sympathetic to (the town crier indicated there are only a pair, and from the lore found during the quest it appears the [[Eldrytch Web]] and Rytheran, as a leader of some sort in that faction, actually is part of the disturbance). '''Warning''' - Once you talk to either NPC, you cannot engage the other NPC for the quest.
#Travel to [[Graveyard]] and enter the [[Gardens of Menilesh]] at 64.7S 43.8W.
#Speak to [[Lord Rytheran]] at the start, he will instruct you to retrieve a ring. You have a choice at this point, you can continue down and get the ring, or you can kill Rytheran (caution he is much tougher now),  Once he is dead, he will drop 9 keys on his corpse to the 2 chests nearby. the chest will always contain the [[Visage of Menilesh], the [[Rytheran's Mnemosyne]], the [[Ornate Bone Key]], a mhoire coin, some level 8 comps and 2-3 random high tier loot pieces. There is no known differences between these two options, however Zho Heishan seems to imply you can do this without killing him while Lacarra suggests killing him (see lore below). Also he does take a good amount of time to respawn (about 10 minutes).
#If you kill him, skip the next steps, if not continue on in the dungeon.
#Not far from the start is a [[Strange Pillar]]. When used it summons many moarsmen and undead. This pillar servers a role in another quest, [[Lalalas in My Head]].
#The dungeon forms a large circle, so you can go left or right and both lead to a large room in the middle with the [[Ring of Remembrance]] on the floor. From the drop, go down several levels, coming to a room with the [[Strange Pillar]] in the middle. Go west, up the ramp and south, stick left and you'll come to a large room with the ring on the floor in the middle. The ring respawns quickly and has a 13 day pickup timer.
#Return to [[Lord Rytheran]] at the start and give him the ring, he will give you the [[Visage of Menilesh]] and [[Rytheran's Mnemosyne]].
#Go back to [[Wai Jhou]] and give the Mnemosyne to the NPC you originally talked to for the experience reward. If you don't want to [[Visage of Menilesh]] you can give it to the NPC for 5% xp.

Note: The choice you make in which NPC to use here has no long term impact when joining a faction:

== Lore & Dialog ==
If you are too low level:

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "I don't believe you can help me.  I seek a stronger champion to face great peril."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacarra Avanthi tells you, "You are too weak to help me, youngster.  Seek me out when you have become stronger."<br></font>

----

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "Excellent, perhaps you can help me.  My superiors seek some knowledge of the troubles affecting the ley lines of Dereth, and the problem seems to trace back to Rytheran, the ancient Dericostian noble.  We have become aware that a path into Rytheran's current abode within the ruined Gardens of Menilesh has opened somewhere in the Empyrean Graveyard."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "Find a way to seek out Rytheran and see if you can retrieve his personal mnemosyne...  We need access to his memories about the reading of the Book of Eibhil. It may not be necessary to destroy the undead lord, but merely to attain his cooperation."<br></font>

OR

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacarra Avanthi tells you, "You may be worth my time... My masters have determined that the dusty, deposed Lord Rytheran is the source of our current troubles with ley lines.  If you would make yourself useful to us and to all the humans of Dereth, seek him out in his garden sanctuary."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacarra Avanthi tells you, "There is a portal to these gardens located in the midst of the Empyrean Graveyard.  We need a mnemosyne from Rytheran, bearing... vital information about a book he once held.  Take it from him, by force or coercion, and bring it to me.  You will be well rewarded."<br></font>

----

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lord Rytheran tells you, "Ah, you seek my mnemosyne, do you not?  My memories of that long-ago day when I read from the book... Your masters desire it so that they may meddle in this affair and save their fragile settlements from the depredation of the Blight.  Well enough.  I will give you the mnemosyne you seek if you do something for me..."<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lord Rytheran tells you, "In the ancient garden below, my followers have gone mad, forgotten themselves and their allegiance to me.  Regrettably, they had something that is dear to me in their possession when they lost their minds.  A ring of some... sentimental value.  Find that ring, and bring it to me.  I will give you the mnemosyne you seek when you bring me the ring.  You will have to kill me to get the mnemosyne otherwise, and I can already see you lack the power and the will to do that."<br></font>

----

If you choose to kill Lord Rytheran ([[Lady Aerfalle (Disturbance in the Ley Lines NPC)|Lady Aerfalle]] briefly appears after he dies):

<font color=green>You bring Lord Rytheran to a fiery end!<br></font>
<font color=green>As Rytheran's battered bones collapse under the force of your assault, the undead lord's skeletal face seems to break into a bitter grin.<br></font>
<font color=darkgray>Lord Rytheran says, "Fool! Are you truly willing to risk my eternal enmity, and the wrath of the formidable legions that serve me?  Even if my memories fail me, the Web will remember..."<br></font>
<font color=green>A wind blows through the chamber, and the scattering of bones that was once Lord Rytheran of Menilesh vanishes.  Another presence appears in the center of the room...<br></font>
<font color=darkgray>Lady Aerfalle says, "My poor Rytheran, what have you done to yourself?  What perils were unleashed by your dabbling with that accursed book?  I am here now, and I will not let these mortal vermin sully your remains..."<br></font>

----

<font color=green>The pillars surface feels cold and oily. A horrible taste blooms in your mouth and you hear a whispering voice. You realize the voice is coming from your own mouth, whispering words in a language you don't understand.<br></font>

----

<font color=green>You give Lord Rytheran Ring of Remembrance.<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lord Rytheran tells you, "Ah, a keepsake from my lady love... At last, a memory that will bring me some warmth in this eternal darkness.  Take this mnemosyne, and my mask of office... And go.  Leave me to my memories."<br></font>
<font color=green>Lord Rytheran gives you Rytheran's Mnemosyne.<br></font>
<font color=green>Lord Rytheran gives you Visage of Menilesh.<br></font>

----

<font color=green>You allow Lord Rytheran to examine your Rytheran's Mnemosyne.<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lord Rytheran tells you, "I do not want this any more.  The memories are too foul and terrible.  Better that I forget.  Bring it to your masters, who would surely find it illuminating."<br></font>

----

<font color=green>You give Zho Heishan Rytheran's Mnemosyne.<br></font>
<font color=green>You've earned 297,235,856 experience.</font> (Level 275)<br>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "Amazing!  You actually convinced Rytheran to part with his precious memory of the Book of Eibhil?  I do not know what you had to do to accomplish it, and perhaps that is for the best.  You have my thanks, and the thanks of the realm of Dereth for the good you have done here.  These memories will be invaluable in helping us solve the mess that Rytheran and that book created."<br></font>

<font color=green>You give Zho Heishan Visage of Menilesh.<br></font>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "This mask is... breathtaking.  It once belonged to Lord Rytheran himself?  Truly a precious artifact.  If you do not want it, I can grant you some practical experience for it."<br></font>
<font color=green>You've earned 49,539,309 experience.<br></font>

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "I believe you have served me already, have you not?  I have no further tasks for you now, but I thank you for your attentiveness."<br></font>

OR

<font color=green>You give Lacarra Avanthi Rytheran's Mnemosyne.<br></font>
<font color=green>You've earned 297,235,856 experience.</font> (Level 242)<br>
<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacara Avanthi tells you, "Well done!  I will not ask how you got this artifact from the hoary old tyrant.  But this should contain the information we need to find out what Rytheran did wrong, and what we can do to stop what he has unleashed..."<br></font>

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacara Avanthi tells you, "You've already retrieved Rytheran's trinket for me.  I thank you for your service, but I have nothing for you now."<br></font>

----

<font color=darkgoldenrod>Zho Heishan tells you, "You cannot fool me.  You've already sought out Rytheran on Nuhmudira's behalf.  Be careful of your associations.  The blood witch is treacherous and would think nothing of sacrificing you for her own ends.  I am afraid I can have no dealings with you."<br></font>


<font color=darkgoldenrod>Lacarra Avanthi tells you, "I can already tell that you've helped that groveling fool Heishan with this matter of Rytheran.  Beware of the time when you are forced to choose between your own kind and the Empyreans who would enslave us all."<br></font>
