1. Everyone needs a [[Pulsating Bony Lump]] from the bottom of the [[Artifex Collegium]] at 91.9S 93.7W. If you have time, get two, if you die before getting to the final portal you will need another lump.
2. Find a randomly spawning [[Orphanage]] portal on [[Singularity Caul]]. To get to the bottom requires getting a Pandemic key, start by going east from the drop and pulling the middle of the three levers on the east side. (If you are leading the quest it can save time by getting one or more Pandemic keys ahead of time.) Go SE from the main room and up to the door opened by the lever and pick up a Wretched Key. Go NW from the main room and open the door to get the Depraved Key, back to the SW to get the Abyssal Key, and finally NW again for the Pandemic Key. Go down the SW tunnel and there will four locked doors surrounding a pit, open any one of them using the Pandemic key and jump down three times. At the bottom run north and hook around into a large room, take either the west or the east passages out of the room to go up and south to the room with the exit portal.
3. Be careful to warn your group not to go to the red statue in the north room. The statue you want is black and is in the same room as the exit portal, a Statue of Bael'Zharon, the Hopeslayer. Everyone hands their lump to the statue to be portaled to the [[Orphanage Wing]]. Do not try clicking on or using the statue, it will just give 5% vita.
4. From the drop, head north and stick to the left until you have passed through two rooms, then at the next intersection go right. Go straight through two branching 3 way intersections and go left at the Y intersection. Take the next right and you will eventually come to a portal, go right inside. Going through it flags you for two hours of access to the Prodigal Shadow Child's Lair. If you die you can return rapidly by using the statue just north of the drop on Singularity Caul (using the statue after the two hours has expired will summon several high level shadows).
5. On the north side of the room is the prodigal shadow child, [[Kirienne Palacost]], in a protective bubble. Kill each spawn in order to cause two protectors to eventually spawn ([[A Shadow of Ler Rhan]] and [[A Shadow of Black Ferah]], along with [[Black Flame | Black Flames]]). Once they have been killed the bubble will go away and you can kill Kirienne Palacost. This room is very dangerous with lots of war, dispelling of buffs, hecatombs, etc. Be prepared with lots of items you can turn in to drop vita so you can quickly return to the fight. Once dead, everyone loots a [[Scrap of Shadow Essence]] (13 day timer).
6. Clear bodies before respawn and take the Scrap to [[Riordin Nightbane]] in [[Wai Jhou]] (61.9S 51.4W) for the xp, title, and shield reward.
Note: There are 12 lore items available. The Pulsating Bony Lump and Message to the Shadow Artifex are found in the [[Artifex Collegium]]. The [[Fleshy Lump | Fleshy]], [[Amorphous Lump | Amorphous]], [[Pulsing Lump | Pulsing]], [[Oozing Lump | Oozing]], [[Throbbing Lump | Throbbing]], [[Sticky Lump | Sticky]], and [[Shriveled Lump | Shriveled Lumps]] and the [[Aerbax's Message]], [[Obsidian Shard | Obsidan]] and [[Misty Message]] Shards are found in a side room of the [[Orphanage Wing]]. The lumps can be translated by [[Bretself]] in [[Cragstone]] (26.0N 47.0E). The shards can be translated by [[Diyas al-Yat]] in [[Zaikhal]] (13.8N 0.1E).


According to An Adventurer from a post on Turbine Web site -
<br>
Basic quest: Speak to the guards in Kryst. Only one matters for the actual mosswart fort quest. The other one just gives the unrelated kill task and the leader is only there for lore.
<br>
Head to the mosswart fort. coords are approx. 78S 87E I beleive. Head down into the caves. No map is available yet and its a bit of a maze, but you want to head down. There are two items you need to recover, and they are in different sections of the lower area. You need to speak to a mosswart Shaman to free him, and you need to collect a stack of papers. There is no need to kill the prodigal mosswart and no reward for doing so as far as I can tell.
<br>
Bring the papers to an NPC in MacNiall's Freehold. She is a scholar standing in the bar, and I believe she has on the Exploration Society uniform (the plain robe and hat w/ feather).
<br>
Return to Kryst. Speak with the npc that gave you the quest. You get an exp reward. Done with the main quest.
<br>
If you want the Blessed Spear of the Mosswart Gods, you must complete another step. Head to the Mosswart Worship Cavern at 41.1S 48.8W (dires swamps). Head to the mosswart NPC at the end and speak to him. He gives you the spear. The spear can be turned in for exp at the guard that gives the quest.
<br>
The spear may be useful if you have a mid level spear character or play a character without life magic that has 4 credits to spend on spear. Its 325 to wield, has a nice attack bonus, and has cast on strike: fester 7, with 400 spellcraft I believe.

Walkthrough

1. Everyone needs a Pulsating Bony Lump from the bottom of the Artifex Collegium at 91.9S 93.7W. If you have time, get two, if you die before getting to the final portal you will need another lump.

2. Find a randomly spawning Orphanage portal on Singularity Caul. To get to the bottom requires getting a Pandemic key, start by going east from the drop and pulling the middle of the three levers on the east side. (If you are leading the quest it can save time by getting one or more Pandemic keys ahead of time.) Go SE from the main room and up to the door opened by the lever and pick up a Wretched Key. Go NW from the main room and open the door to get the Depraved Key, back to the SW to get the Abyssal Key, and finally NW again for the Pandemic Key. Go down the SW tunnel and there will four locked doors surrounding a pit, open any one of them using the Pandemic key and jump down three times. At the bottom run north and hook around into a large room, take either the west or the east passages out of the room to go up and south to the room with the exit portal.

3. Be careful to warn your group not to go to the red statue in the north room. The statue you want is black and is in the same room as the exit portal, a Statue of Bael'Zharon, the Hopeslayer. Everyone hands their lump to the statue to be portaled to the Orphanage Wing. Do not try clicking on or using the statue, it will just give 5% vita.

4. From the drop, head north and stick to the left until you have passed through two rooms, then at the next intersection go right. Go straight through two branching 3 way intersections and go left at the Y intersection. Take the next right and you will eventually come to a portal, go right inside. Going through it flags you for two hours of access to the Prodigal Shadow Child's Lair. If you die you can return rapidly by using the statue just north of the drop on Singularity Caul (using the statue after the two hours has expired will summon several high level shadows).

5. On the north side of the room is the prodigal shadow child, Kirienne Palacost, in a protective bubble.
