The Search for Never's Tomb
This is a multi-part, class quest
within
several parts of the city of Neverwinter.
Reverend Judge Oleff
During the first part of Chapter One, you are in the Hall
of
Justice. The door on the side opposite of Aribeth will
lead
to Judge Oleff. Speak to him to get an idea of the Tyrran
faith
and eventually, he will begin talking about recovering
artifacts.
If you are a Paladin, Monk or Cleric, he will
automatically
give you the quest info. If not, you can persuade him. His
persuade
check is at DC24. If you fail, try again later when your
skill
is higher.
He will give you a Letter From
Oleff.
Neverwinter, City Core
An alternative to handing over the quest items to Oleff is
to
sell them to GILLES in the Moonstone Mask. He will pay you
600
gold each with a bonus of 600 gold and a Morning Star +1
when
he's received the 4th artifact. This is so that he can
despoil
the artifacts for his evil Goddess.
If this type of morally corrupt behavior is unpalatable
to
you, at least keep talking to him until he tells you about
Jacob's
Quill. Demand it from him and he'll no longer
stick
around. Oleff will give you 500 gold for the Quill.
Peninsula District
Begin your quest in the Peninsula District. Take the
Letter
from Oleff to the Never's Tomb Excavation
Site
on the far East side of the District. Speak with Briley
downstairs
for more information on the quest. The chest near Briley
contains
the quest items. Halueth's Tomb: An Archaeological
Logbook
(for a list of other sites) and the keys for those sites,
the
Ceremonial Arrow, the Shield and the
Sword.
Beggar's Nest
The Halueth Never's Tomb is located in the Great
Graveyard.
It is reached through the Underground Crypt, which is part
of the UNDEAD INFESTATION quest.
The chest at the door has a riddle, "A Wall at Arm's
Length".
Put the Shield in the chest to unlock the
door.
You will be facing a level 6 undead mummy, so it wouldn't
be
a bad idea to have along the cleric, if you are not one.
His
main weapon is Mummy Slam (1d6+3, Mummy Rot) which can
really
ruin your day if you don't have a lesser Restoration
spell,
scroll or potion. He has a 50% vulnerability to Fire.
Take the Ancient Chronicles of Halueth
Never.
The Blacklake
District
Again, on the East side of the District you will find a
house.
Speak to the kid & his mom to find out the way through
the
bookcase. Once inside, there are undead to wade through
until
you find the chest with another riddle. This one, "A
Splinter
Delivered In Flight" is obviously the
Arrow.
Once you open the door, you will be faced with the Four
Swords
of Neverwinter. I was never able to defeat these at a
lower
level, so I merely used invisibility (shadow?) to sneak
past,
loot the chest then recalled back to the Hall of Justice.
You
will find a Greataxe +1 and Halueth's Rusted
Armor.
The Docks District
The last excavation site is within the aqueduct beneath
the
Silver Sail. Remember to keep yourself on Dara'nei's good
side.
West of the Entrance is another riddle chest, "The
Tooth
of the Forge", which needs the Sword
to
unlock the door.
Within is a sarcophagus holding the Amulet of
Tyr.
Taking this amulet will open three doors from which a
nasty
mob of undead emerge. Kill or recall as you chose.
Reward Time
Oleff is quite happy to take the items you've gathered and
reward
you, though not necessarily well. I believe he pays you
200
gold for each quest item, though with a good persuade, you
can
up that by 100.
