Swamp Temple Quest

== Overview ==
Explore two ancient Falatacot temples to discover their treasures.
This very early quest is an example of the dungeon treasure hunting style of quests. Although this type of quest became fairly useless early on, the Swamp Temples are still interesting dungeons to explore, especially since they have gone untouched all these years and offer a glimpse of early Dereth.
* Lockpicking is not required, but will allow you skip gathering some or all of the keys needed for this quest.

This leads to the throne room/treasure room with a Mosswart Chief, several Mosswart Shamans, and various lesser mosswarts. There are 6 chests to loot here, all unlocked. When you are done, proceed back down to level -4.

These two paths meet up in the center, where you will find two more hallways leading down even deeper. In this deepest area of the temple, you will find another chest to loot. Proceed back up to one of the 5-way intersections.
# From the 5-way intersection, take the opposite direction as before - if you are north head north and if you are south head south. This leads to the final room of the temple.
