Let's take a look at this map...

Yep, that's Ishalgen. Look, here is the prison camp...and this is...wait, I've seen this map before.

A woman named Kirtai came through here a couple months ago. She said she was looking for a gravesite and had a poorly drawn map.

I told her to go to the graveyard if she was looking for a grave, but she insisted it was someplace else. For 200 Kinah I'd believe anything.

We never found it and she never came back, but she left the map. I kept it handy in case I saw her again.

Oh no...

Player: "Try comparing the two maps."

I can do better than that. This map is onionskin, so I can just lay it atop the other.

It lines up perfectly! The Black Opal--and the gravesite Kirtai was looking for--is in a cave just over the hill. The Lepharists are close, but their map isn't detailed enough to show exactly where to go.

There's one problem, though: The cave isn't empty. You'll have to face Carak to get to the Black Opal. We lost a lot of raiders trying to kill Carak, but I'm sure you can do it, Player! Imagine the treasure...the stuff dreams are made of!

Player: Accept.

Yes! We're going to be rich! Rich!

All right, quickly now! Nab that pearl! Hurry to the cave, defeat Carak, and bring back the treasure from the cave!

Player: "I'll be back--I hope."

Player returns, bearing unseemly amounts of treasure!

Right? You killed the Carak and brought me his treasure?

Tell me!

Player: "Here's what I found."

What?! You haven't gone yet?

Player, we're so close to being rich! I can taste the Kinah...not that I would eat it, you understand, just...

Just get on with it, will ya?

Player: "I'll have it next time."

Give that here!

What? This is it?!

This is a fake! I couldn't sell this in Aldelle, never mind Pandaemonium. Where's the power? The power!

All that trouble for nothing! I can't believe it. Keep the thing, Player--there's some residual magic in there. It's nothing to me.
