If you think you've reached the lowest level but can still see troll soldiers and prison cells then you're one level too high. Run to the other end of the ship and go through the narrow ramp to descend one more level where Ko'jan will be the only enemy present.

Advisor Ko'jan is on the absolute lowest level the the ship. Enter the inside of the ship on the deck level and head down. When you see the prison cell, run past it to the opposite end of the ship and you'll see stairs leading down. Take those and Enter the Crew's Quarters. From there, run all the way down and you'll run into the Advisor herself.

The respawn timer for me was less than one minute. The body from my kill was still there even after she respawned. I waited to turn my quest in to check and see how long it takes.

She is fairly easy to fight, speaking from a tank's perspective.

Description

The ship's captain is nowhere to be found. Shandris and Falstad will handle locating him. We must go after the ship's advisor. Kelsey's logs indicate her name is Ko'jan. She may have methods to reach out to the mainland. We have to move before she tries to use any of them.

After this quest

  • An End to the KillingLevel 50

    Let's return to the upper decks and see what our current status is. Shandris should be there by now. I know Shandris and Falstad well enough that they will be there with the captain of this ship, dead or alive.
