Objectives

Morta'gya the Keeper
She'll be cowering in the back of the cave, no doubt.

Kill Morta'gya the Keeper and obtain the Tablet of Shadra.

•  [Tablet of Shadra]

Description

Shadra the spider loa... the venom queen, a spirit of darkness and death! If there's been a sacrifice, they're trying to bring her forth as a last-ditch effort.

If the Vilebranch are performing rituals, I'm not going to let them finish.

Check the cave behind the altar at the top of Jintha'Alor. Deep within it, one of Shadra's keepers might still be lurking. Kill her and take whatever she carries back here so we can know what's going on.

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards:

	[Unkeeper Blade]			[Leggings of Secret Rituals]
	[Gloves of Strange Words]			[Tablet-Bearer's Pauldrons]
	Gauntlets of Strange Words			[Talon Hatchet]

You will also receive:

• 40
• 2,150 XP

Progress

Be sure you search her body. I don't want any traps laid by the Vilebranch to be hidden by their deaths.

Completion

A tablet! If I can read this... this is a ritual to summon Shadra herself into this world., and a list of the idols needed.

You've done a good job slaying the keeper and getting ahold of this, <name>.

Objectives

Kill Morta'gya the Keeper and obtain the Tablet of Shadra.

•  [Tablet of Shadra]

Description

Kotonga has told me of Shadra. She is the venom queen, the loa of spiders, worshipped in darkness. If the Vilebranch are performing rituals, I'm not going to let them finish.

Check the cave behind the altar at the top of Jintha'Alor. Deep within it, one of Shadra's keepers might still be lurking. Kill her and take whatever she carries back here so we can know what's going on.

Completion

The parts scattered, the keepers separated... I see.

This is a ritual to summon Shadra. They must not have gotten far. It should be destroyed...
