Quest information

Requirements

• Elonian (Nightfall) character

Objectives

• Kneel at the Sunspear Crypt to summon the original Sunspear Guard.
• See Castellan Puuba for your reward.

Reward

• 1,500 Experience
• 125 Gold
• 15 Sunspear Promotion Points

Walkthrough

From Blacktide Den, head east and then south (following the path outlined by the map). You'll encounter some hidden groups of mandragor that popup as you walk along, so make sure you take the mandragor bounty as soon as you enter the zone.

When you reach the Tomb of the Three Worthies, use the /kneel emote. Kojolin the Conciliator, First Spear Janah, and Sogolon the Protector will appear and turn hostile. Take out Kojolin first, followed by Sogolon and Janah. When they're reduced to a sliver of health, they'll stop fighting and become neutral towards you. When they're all defeated, Sogolon will have something to say. Listen to what he has to say, and then travel back to the Sunspear Great Hall to speak with Castellan Puuba to get your reward.

Dialogue

Initial dialogue

Castellan Puuba

We don't have the numbers of our enemies, therefore we must compensate in other ways. Dunkoro and Kormir proposed we seek the help of the original Sunspear Guard that served Elona in the days of the Primeval Dynasty. They are interred in the Tomb of the Three Worthies in Lahtenda Bog. Hopefully, time has been kind to their restless spirits. Can we count on you?

 Accept: "It must be done."

 Decline: "I must be going...somewhere that's ghost free."

 Ask: "Get to the Tomb of the Three Worthies in Lahtenda Bog and seek the aid of The [sic] original Sunspear Guard."

Intermediate dialogue

First Spear Janah: "You may arm yourself like a Sunspear, but can you fight like one?"

Kojolin the Conciliator: "Through war, we achieve peace. Now is your time to shine, Sunspear. Fight!"

Sogolon the Protector

We have foreseen the day your Spearmarshal would call upon us for aid. Know this, kind and noble emissary...when it is time to storm Gandara, you and your brethren will not be alone. In every battle cry, in every fated step, we will be your armor when iron buckles and your spear when steel fails. But first you must prove your worthiness.

Reward dialogue

Castellan Puuba

I am uneasy in the presence of spirits, but the thought of charging headlong into Varesh's blade has given me pause. The Sunspears began as the Sunspear Guard under Queen Nadijeh. With their aid we cannot fail.
