Quest Group: Chapter 4 - Mastering the Source
Starting Map: Reaper's Coast
To start this quest you should find Tarquin, talk to him, and offer him your help. You will find him northeast of the Stonegarden cemetery.
Tarquin has asked us to retrieve a powerful artefact for him. He believes that it can be found in the nearby Surrey family crypt. The last member of the family, Johanna, believed that the artefact was a family heirloom, and was buried with it. Helping Tarquin now might prove to be beneficial to us later.
