Give Loremaster Borannin: Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl

Loremaster Borannin says, "Incredible! Never before has an outlander been skilled and determined enough to craft our sacred rune. You are now worthy of the Dain’s most perilous task. You should seek an audience with the Dain immediately. Show him your Runed Prayer Shawl; he will give you the task that has been prepared for you. If the Dain is away show your Shawl to Chamberlain Krystorf and he will call for him."

Go visit Dain Frostreaver IV in icewell keep. He is at the back room through the red curtain behind his throne usually standing on his bed. If he is not up go here to see how to spawn him. You can only spawn him 1 time so only do this if you have to.

Give Dain Frostreaver IV: Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl (either Mark 1 or Mark 2)

Dain Frostweaver IV says, "Ah Marduk. I was hoping to see you. We require your skilled hand. The Armory is overtaxed preparing armor for the war that we are preparing to wage on the Giants of Zek. We need you to help by creating some Field Plate for a mission that is near to execution. Go see Loremaster Solstrin in the Hall of Ancestors, give him these orders. He holds the lore recorded on how to make the field plate."

Loremaster Solstrin says, "So, the Dain needs your assistance with the Field Plate. The Dain must trust you a great deal to impart the wisdom of our armor creation to you. Here are the tomes. The first details how to make the basic armor, the other details how to begin [working with gemstones]. If the Dain is asking you for them you should place them in an [Issue Kit]. May Brell guide your hand friend, good luck to you."

You receive: Forge of Icewell Keep + Precious Gem Study

You say, "What about working with gemstones?"

Loremaster Solstrin says, "Aye, gems are placed within the armor. Brell is pleased with this fusion of ore and gem. The combination produces a sturdy piece of armor. You will need some Etching Tools to work with the gems. If you ask Meg Tucter for a set, she should have some lying about."

You say, "What about the issue kit?"

Loremaster Solstrin says, "The Standard Issue Kit is what we issue to soldiers at the beginning of their mission. I have this empty one here. Before I give it to you, could you show me your Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl? I would like to see how skilled you are.'

Give Loremaster Solstrin: Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl

The Unrefined gems are dropped by Shimmering Geonids in Wakening lands. Every Shimmering Geonid will drop 1 gem. The best time to farm these gems is when the server has just re popped. There will be several shimmering geo's up at this time.

return to Dain frostweaver. If you have not used the trigger spawn of him and he is not up you can do it now. If you have spawned him before then you cannot do it again. Go here to see how to spawn him.

Give Dain Frostreaver IV: Coldain Standard Issue Kit

Dain Frostreaver IV says, "Excellent work Marduk. If I didn't know I would assume this was made by our most skilled artisans. You must hurry, General Bragmur has formed camp in Iceclad. Take the kit to the General, he had to drudge forward without any armor. His [mission] must be a success if we hope to successfully defend Thurgadin against the Giants."

You receive: Approved Issuing Box

You say, "What mission?"

Dain Frostreaver IV says, "After General Bragmur has equipped the armor you have created for him, give him these orders. He is a skilled diplomat and will need to reach the pirate Gnomes. We must enter into a pact with them. We will supply them with the velium that they need to build their silly gadgets, and they will take their ship back to Antonica and call for reinforcements from our ancestors. We hope they will accept this pact, after all Brell has been known to align himself with Bristlebane whom the Gnomes of Iceclad follow. You may be an important [factor] in their success"

You receive: Expedition Orders

You say, "What factor?"

Dain Frostreaver IV says, "I fear that spies lurk in every corner. You may need to help the General reach the gnomish camp if the Kromrif has gotten word of our efforts. You should call on any allies that you have to assist in case they ambush you. Brell bless you Marduk, good luck."

General Bragmur is located in iceclad near the bridge by the water at loc -3400, 9000 . If somone has done the quest recently his spawn timer is said to be every 4 hours. DO NOT give the general the orders before giving him the armor. He will attack you.

You say, "Hail, General Bragmur"

General Bragmur says, "Please keep yer voice down I am busy here. If you do not mind I would ask that ya kindly leave."

Give General Bragmur: Approved Issuing Box

General Bragmur begins to put the armor, "Finally the Dain has gotten word of my arrival here. I await his final orders before proceeding."

Give General Bragmur: Expedition Orders

General Bragmur says, "The final orders, follow me closely! I pray that the Kromrif have not learned of our plans to align with the gnomes."

The general now begins his walk. You need a significant force to keep the general alive. 3 groups of 55+ players at least and somone who can mem blur is essential. There are several dont's when escorting the general. Cast absolutely not AoE spells. None not even beneficial one's like selo's they will aggro the general. Do not try to heal the General he will aggro on the healer.

There will be 5 waves of mobs you have to kill to escort the general to the Gnome Camp. Have somone keep an eye on the general he has been known to wander off in the middle of a fight if no mobs are near him.

Several nice items drop on each wave. These items do not drop every time. Here they are:

 

After the 5th wave the general will go to the gnome camp.

General Bragmur says, "Lo there gnomes! Tell me is your camp located nearby?"

Ratop says, "Yar ye scruvy bearded dwarf, just over tha hill there."

Ritap says, "Arrrrrrrrrrr!"

Captain Nalot says, "Hrm? Who is scuffin' around out here?"

Captain Nalot says, "Arrrrrr what is it ye want?"

General Bragmur says, "Well ya see sir, we have a surplus of Velium that we would not mind sharing with you for yer tinkerin' but would ask a favor in return for it."

Captain Nalot says, "Velium eh? Well there matey lets hear what you have got to say!"

Adisson Stubblechin says, "Arrr. Ahoy there, ya hull-faced, landlubbin', mast rats! Keep them beady eyes open! Remember, yer mean, nasty, pirates! Keep yer eyepatches square as a jig and yer rapiers sharp as a barnacle!"

General Bragmur says, "I represent the Dain in this matter, we would like for you to use yer Icebreaker there to head to Antonica and bring reinforcements for the war that is preparing to ensue. We are needin' all the help we can get against the Kromrif."

Avatar of Below spawns by the campfire.

Avatar of Below's voice echoes through the area. "The efforts to help the Coldain and bring them together with the gnomes of Iceclad is quite impressive. There will be no doubt that they will continue to increase in power until they can overtake the Giants of Zek. Hey there, what is that on your shoulder?"

Give Avatar of Below: Runed Coldain Prayer Shawl

Avatar of Below holds the shawl up close to one eye to look at the rune sewn into it. He smiles to himself and then drops it to the ground and places one hand on it. A bright blue glow starts to emanate in the snow, then there is a sudden flash! The Avatar has dissipated. All that is left behind is the Shawl lying in the snow, shimmering with a new power. Marduk slowly bends down to pick it up, and is infused with a blessing from Brell.

You receive: Blessed Coldain Prayer Shawl

General Bragmur says, "I must go tell the Dain of these events immediately!"

Captain Nalot scratches his head, "Yar ya do that ya crazy Coldain."
