Quest Overview

A contract for this quest, Contract for Death's Allure, can be purchased from Barkeeper Lazzaro in the Annex hall of the Town Network.

Walk Through

1. Take the Eastwatch portal (90.3N 43.2W) in the Town Network and run to the pass into the Shattered Outlands at 93N 47W. Once through the pass head due east to the small cave at 94.2N 43.0W.
2. Speak to the Hermit inside, she will give you a Bag of Life Stone Chips, then enter the portal to Thrungus Hole. The portal is tiable and summonable.
3. The Thrungus cast life debuffs, lots of war, and hit very very hard. Scattered through the dungeon are six Baby Thrungus. Give the Bag of Lifestone Chips to each baby. Refer to the dungeon map (Thrungus Hole) for locations.
4. Giving the chips causes several higher level Thrungus to spawn so if you are doing this solo you may want to pop a portal gem before handing the chips, then hit the portal as soon as you've handed. Then last portal recall, dispel, and head to the next baby. A group should be able to just kill the spawn.
5. After you have handed to all six, you'll get a message that you have been coated with dust and to talk to the Hermit again. Last portal recall and use the surface portal.

Lore & Dialog

Hermit tells you, "Stranger! Hear my words."
Hermit tells you, "Long ago I stumbled upon an ancient Falatacot tomb. In my foolish quest for riches I defiled the tomb only to trigger an ancient curse that causes my flesh to melt. Behold!"
Hermit tells you, "This melting of my body will continue until I die in twisted agony. My peace lasts but a moment as those accursed life stones will bring me back to life whereupon the cycle will begin anew."
Hermit tells you, "My search for a cure has brought me here. Will you not help me find solace? The Thrungus within this cave possess a unique ability to process rocks by digesting them. Take these and feed them to the Thrungus. Bring me back a sample of the processed stones."
Hermit tells you, "Seek me out if you should need more of these."
Hermit gives you Bag of Life Stone Chips.

Talking to Hermit again
Hermit tells you, "Yes! This is it!"
Hermit carefully collects the Thrungus Dust from your clothes and then suddenly her smile turns to one of sadness.
Hermit tells you, "You deserve to know the truth. It is my belief that this dust will sever my ties to the Life Stones so when next I die I will not be brought back. My heart aches for having to deceive you, but I feared you would not help me had I told you the truth."
Hermit tells you, "But do not despair my friend. For while you were gone I started to have misgivings about my actions. Perhaps death is not the answer I should seek."

Speaking to Hermit before timer is up:
Hermit tells you, "Thanks to you I now have a means to put end to my torment and yet I now lack the courage to use it. Does my life mean so little that I can throw it away so carelessly? Was I put here on this land for a purpose? So many questions to be answered."
