The al-Luq family has always had trouble with drudges. Help them by retrieving some stolen items. Speak with Lubziklan al-Luq at his villa located at 22.4S, 1.9W.

Lubziklan al-Luq tells you, "Can I help you, traveler? Well, but perhaps you can help me."
Lubziklan al-Luq tells you, "I am the owner of the orchards, and the purveyor of delicious and sundry goods made from the finest Cove apples. Lately, though, I am beleaguered by a pesky band of drudges that has been stealing all my goods! I need someone who is willing to defeat these drudges and recover my goods for me."
Lubziklan al-Luq gives you A List of Items.
Lubziklan al-Luq tells you, "Here is a list of what they have taken. Return these items to me and I will reward you appropriately."
Lubziklan al-Luq tells you, "I believe that these drudges are holed up in the Sea Temple Catacombs, on a plateau at the mouth of the harbor. But rumor has it that there is an easier entrance, through the Rat's Nest just northwest of town."
Lubziklan al-Luq tells you, "If you need more help finding either location, you can buy directions from Jubal at the bar in Yaraq proper."

Head to the Red Rat Lair. Before entering, you can attack the nearby gang of Drudges at 21.0S, 2.1W and retrieve the Cove Apple from one of the drudges. Continue on to the rat lair.

Ma’yad ibn(sic) Ibsar is looking for her brother. You can find her in the Cerulean Cove pub in Yaraq.

Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "Hail, traveler. Have you encountered a man named Abmim ibn Ibsar? He is my brother, who foolishly listened to those who whisper of an unsafe freedom to be gained in the Direlands."
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "We have not heard from him in several months, and begin to worry. If you bring me news of him, I would reward you as well as I may."
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "The last we heard, he had finally accepted some honest work from Akyafi the Translator. Perhaps Akyafi, who resides upstairs, can tell you more."

Head upstairs to the balcony to speak with the translator.

Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "I am a humble scholar from Zaikhal. Of late, we have heard of the unusually large number of Drudges in the hills around the Yaraq Cove."
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "They seem to gather near the ruin of the Empyrean port on the far side of the cove, where the Mad Star flickers. Perhaps you could investigate, and bring me back something which would explain their presence?"
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "I recently sent young Abmim to investigate, but he has not yet returned."
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "If you are having difficulty locating the Mad Star, you may buy directions from the barkeeper, Jubal. He's afraid of the Mad Star; ask him instead how to reach the Pillars of the Inner Sea.

Head west towards the cove. Follow the shore along the southern edge of the cove until you reach the Pillars of the Inner Sea. Once there you will find out the fate of Ma'yad’s brother: his corpse is bobbing in the waters, with a pack of shallows sharks surrounding it. Corpse of Abmim ibn Ibsar - 22.3S, 4.7W. Open it and take Abmim’s Jambiya. Continue north to the other end of the cove. You will see some ruins northeast of you.

At 21.5S, 4.1W there is a bunker to the Under-Cove Crypt, but the door will not open! First pick up A Note to Ma'yad sitting next to the door. Now head to the Mad Star Tower nearby and take the staircase to the upper level. Kill the special Drudge Prowler there who does not have a collar and instead wears bracers. This drudge drops the Scrawled Note. Now look for a button on the wall of the tower’s upper level. Hitting this button will open the door to the Under-Cove Crypt. Hit it and hurry back down into the cyrpt.

Under-Cove Crypt - ACMaps

Inside you will find undead. Be prepared to fight them as soon as you enter. Follow the hallway to a larger room. Across from the entrance to this room you will see a windowed wall of another room. The Mad Star Marionette is found in that room. It is possible to kill the marionette through the window, and much easier than navigating the whole dungeon. Kill it and loot the Mad Star Marionette's Head. Return to the Yaraq pub. Give Ma'yad ibn Ibsar Abmim's Jambiya and A Note to Ma'yad. Give Akyafi ibn Sumwar Scrawled Note and the Mad Star Marionette's Head.

You give Ma'yad ibn Ibsar Abmim's Jambiya.
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "Ah, Abmim, I knew you would one day run afoul of something. He that chooses a thief's life has it stolen from him early. My brother became a brigand and murderer, friend traveler."
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "Be not as foolish as he - do not lightly discard the protection this mage Asheron provides. But, as I promised, you have earned a reward."
You've earned 7,500 experience.

You give Ma'yad ibn Ibsar A Note to Ma'yad.
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "Abmim, my brother! Ah, to learn that at the last you had renounced your evil ways! This gives me great joy and great pain - joy that you came to your sense, and pain that it came too late!"
You've earned 7,500 experience.
Ma'yad ibn Ibsar tells you, "Traveler, you have eased my troubled heart. Thank you."

You give Akyafi ibn Sumwar Scrawled Note.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "I have never before heard of a Drudge carrying paper! It is well known that they are far too feebleminded to understand the written word. Allow me to reward you for this fascinating discovery."
You've earned 5,000 experience.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "I wonder what this means? Give me a moment; I believe I may be able to translate it."
Akyafi ibn Sumwar gives you Translation.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "There you are. This is ... intriguing. I wish to study this more closely. In the meantime, I would like you to investigate the Mad Star more carefully. Search the nearby Crypt, if you would, and bring me anything you find."

You give Akyafi ibn Sumwar Mad Star Marionette's Head.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "What is this? Can this be the creature the drudges' note referred to?"
Akyafi fishes a note from his pocket and reads it carefully.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "No ... no ... I do not ... No, I do not know. I must study!"
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "But thank you, friend."
You've earned 25,000 experience.
Akyafi ibn Sumwar tells you, "If you are looking for more adventure, you might want to peruse the rumors that Jubal has at the bar. Or perhaps you should journey to Shoushi. I hear that there are many good people there who may need some help!"
