Lore & Dialog

Ayesha of the Radiant Blood looks at some notes on a scroll.
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "I see that you have aided Jondor Torgren in Zaikhal and met with our recruiter in Ayan Baqur to receive a copy of our manifesto."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "If you wish to join our Society, then I have a task for you, to prove your commitment. In the swamps of middle Osteth there is a cave. In that cave is the entrance to the Corrupted Catacombs. If you search around 23.9S, 54.1E, you should find the entrance."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "In those catacombs, you'll find a Corrupted Mana Shard. Retrieve the Shard and bring it to me, and your test will be complete."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "Be warned, once you have the Shard, it'll be rather unstable, and will last only an hour before it turns to dust. I'll cast a spell on you that will protect you from the corruption of the Shard. I wouldn't recommend touching it without the protections."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood chants briefly, and then touches your brow.
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "There, you should now be able to carry the Corrupted Mana Shard safely."


You give Ayesha of the Radiant Blood Corrupted Mana Shard.
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "Well done. You have done all I asked of you, and done so quickly enough for the Mana Shard to still be in one piece. Well done indeed."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood tells you, "Welcome to the Society of the Radiant Blood! Nearby, you will find a portal into our Stronghold, where you will find several important people to your future within our Society."
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood gives you Radiant Blood Initiate Armor Writ.
You've earned 198,157,237 experience. (Level 208)
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood gives you Initiate's Treasure Key.
Ayesha of the Radiant Blood gives you Radiant Blood Initiate's Handbook.
