Detailed Walkthrough

A Sick Animal

Rumors around the Sadas Plantation suggest that one of the ranch's Silt Striders is ill and that Neroy Assahin is becoming increasingly worried about it. If you talk to Assahin, it turns out that Gali Therinyth in Port Telvannis has been working on a cure, but that Argil has taken a turn for the worse and there's no time to lose. He wants you to pick up the potion.

The Main Ingredient

Port Telvannis is either a short journey by River Strider or a quick trip east over the mountains. Gali Therinyth's Alchemist's shop is found just north of The Avenue and above street level. Unfortunately, he tells you that the potion isn't finished and needs three portions of Gravedust for completion. In the light of Argil's increasing sickness, he asks you to find them for him.

A Grave Illness

Gravedust is a fairly rare ingredient with only a few guaranteed samples to be found. Luckily, Thirvayn Ancestral Tomb lies to the northeast of Port Telvannis and has the three required samples. However you find the samples, return them to Gali Therinyth and hand them over along with 50 gold. In return, he hands you Argil's Cure Potion.

Take the potion back to Neroy Assahin on the plantation. He will reward you with 150 gold and will warm to you to the tune of 10 disposition points.

Notes

• Each time you decline the quest from Neroy Assahin, his disposition towards you drops five points.
• If you take longer than seven days to procure the potion, you will get a journal update telling you to return and check on Argil. Unfortunately, the Strider has died in the interim. If this happens, Neroy Assahin's disposition drops 30 points and everybody else in the plantation will lose 10 points if you talk to them.
