Chapter 8: The lesser evil

The lesser evil (lv.55+)

1. Find Myriel in Kalanthia Island.

"Hello my friend. How have you been?

You know, we've been busy lately trying to put some order all around. There is something that has been worrying me a bit and I don't know if it has anything to do with the recent events, even so I wouldn't want to miss the chance to know more about it.

Apparently that madman Lazarov has been very active lately getting in touch with strangers and making deals with them. We all know he has shady dealings, but I am concerned that because of his lack of ethics and morality he is working with some unidentified foes, we don't need to make the mess we already have any bigger.

Go with him and try to look interested in whatever he proposes to you. If you have to go deep in any deal you make with him, do it without any hesitation, you have my blessing."

2. Go to Lazarov in Kalanthia Island.

Lazarov:

"Well, it doesn't matter. Whoever you are, you seem suitable for a small business I've been dealing with. A few days ago, Nagash contacted me requesting my services. Of all the people I know, I never thought that this sorcerer would ever ask for my help. I didn't ask many questions, all I had to do was find someone strong and send them to him.

If you are interested, go to Nagash and tell him I sent you."

3. Go to Nagash in Kalanthia Island.

Nagash:

(You hear a voice inside you.)

Hello. Come closer, don't be afraid.

So, Lazarov sent you? Good, listen. I apologize for being forced to use this method to seek help. If you only knew the hidden depths of Lazarov's mind you would know that I would be the least likely to ask him for help, unfortunately the type of person suited for this task can be found more easily by him than by me.

Me and other fellow friends are trying to stay one step ahead of the events that have the world on the brink of collapse. Luck is not helping us as much as we would like it to. It is becoming increasingly hard to know what to do or where to look for information.

For that reason, I need you to slay 5 lifes so that in my name I can offer their souls in sacrifice and ask my gods for clairvoyance. It is a top secret task though, even Myriel can't know about it, obviously Lazarov doesn't know about it either, his little mind can only think of bounties, but you understand the situation, don´t you? I know you want to fix the problems of the world, for that, small sacrifices are necessary, in this case, well …. quite literally.

I can neither do this nor go with you. No one can relate this actions to me. Carry this Soul Catcher with you while executing those targets, it will take their souls right away. Before starting this task, go see Lazarov and ask him to be a mercenary. Then, when you get all 5 souls, come with me quietly and give me the Soul Catcher

4. Take the Soul Catcher, return to Lazarov and became a (1)Mercenary.

Lazarov:

"So you want to be a mercenary? And after completing the job Nagash says I should reward you? I don't know what that freak is up to but my task is not to ask questions or look into stuff I have no business with, that's why I've made it to this age alive.

Well, go and finish your work."

5. Defeat 5 players or guardians NPCs, catch their souls and come back to Nagash.

Nagash:

"Excellent!

I feel the souls flowing inside the Soul Catcher. Now I can offer them as sacrifice and get answers from the other side. I am not proud of this but the safety of all we know is at stake.

Go now to Lazarov and be careful with your words, just pretend to have finished a routine revenge job. No one should suspect."

6. Return to Lazarov.

Lazarov:

"Well, you have returned alive. Hey, you're good at this, is it okay if I contact you sometime to do some business?

Don't be shy to ask."

7. Inform to Myriel.

Myriel:

"So in the end what that old crook was looking for was the usual, people to do his dirty work. I'm not going to tell you what to do or with whom to hang out, but if you want my advice, there are better people out there.

Be close, I may need your help later.

Farewell."
