- Chaqurl Qhotl's eyes eagerly dart about the caves of Hopl's Stopple.
- ※The difficulty of this quest will be synced to your current level.
- Thanks in no small part to your aid in gathering resources for the excavation effort, Qitarl Natl and his Stewards are at last prepared to delve deeper into the tunnels of Hopl's Stopple. Alas, there is one small complication: the presence of an arcane ward preventing access to the inner chambers that is passable only by servants of Ox'Dalan, protector of the underworld. As all present ponder a suitable course of action, the Great Serpent of Ronka lets forth a great scree, no doubt seeking to impart wisdom to your band. Sadly, no one present is able to comprehend the meaning of the divine protector's words, leaving you no choice but to accompany Chaqurl Qhotl to Slitherbough to seek the aid of the one man who can.

- You find Quinfort, who does not hesitate to interpret the words of the great serpent in his typically grandiose, pontificating, and highly dubious fashion. Valan gives cursory consideration to the Keeper of Whispers's wisdom before offering up a more practical solution to the problem at hand: to construct a talisman enchanted with the incantations that keep Slitherbough safe from the selfsame beasts that would make the Qitari explorers their next meal.
- You deliver the requested supplies to Valan, who deftly fashions a talisman according to Quinfort's instructions. Now able to probe the depths of Hopl's Stopple without fear of being devoured by creatures of the darkness, the Stewards' excavation team begins their dig, but will they succeed in finding the stone tablets they seek? Chaqurl Qhotl can scarce contain his anticipation to learn what secrets might be unearthed.
- The Qitari rejoice as their excavation effort succeeds in exhuming the first Qitari stela: one of many great stone tablets on which is writ the sum total of the knowledge and history of their ancient race. The stone, however, has been weathered over the ages, obscuring key passages necessary to comprehend the writings in full. At the exhortation of the great serpent, the Qitari resolve to restore the tablets to the best of their ability. However, the missing text leaves many passages open for interpretation, and Qitarl Natl and his son Chaqurl Qhotl have differing views about the intended message. Seeking the wisdom of an impartial arbitrator, they turn to you...
