Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Knowledge of the Past
An old friend of mine came to de sands willingly to gain knowledge of de past. If anyone can locate dis weapon, it would be Julwaba. Last I heard, she planned to excavate de ruins surrounding de great pyramid.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Creeping Death
Scorposhi venom usually induces a slow, creeping death. It's remarkable that your friend has survived this long. As with most antivenoms, the thing that kills is also the thing that heals. I'll need to extract the venom from several scorpashi stingers to craft the cure.
