You say, "Hail, Murrar Shar"

Murrar Shar says to you, "Hello. Until recently, our colony lived in peace with a clan of goblins known as the Sapswill that reside on the other side of the island. But for some unknown reason, they have begun to attack us. We need to begin an investigation at once to get to the bottom of this. Will you help?"

You say, "I would be glad to. What can I do?"

Murrar Shar says to you, "The goblins have started attacking us from the west. We're not sure what sparked the uprising, but they are now relentlessly trying to invade the colony. I need you to go see how our defenders are doing at the west gate and gather any information you can. Speak with Sergeant Haggus at the barricades and see what you can do to assist him."

You say, "I will do so."

*(Quest offered)*

Murrar Shar says to you, "Good luck."

You say, "Thanks."

You say,"Hail, Sergeant Haggus"

Sergeant Haggus says to you,"Har! These scampering whelps will never break through! Oh, hello there. What's that, Murrar sent you?"

You say,"Yes. He was wondering how our defenses are holding?"

Sergeant Haggus says to you,"While the goblins aren't very powerful, they're definitely tenacious. It's almost as if they have no mind of their own and are throwing themselves at us like flies unto a swatter."

*(Complete objective)*

You say,"Could you use some help?"

Sergeant Haggus says to you,"Aye, you're a gutsy one aren't you? I'll give you a chance to prove your strength. Fend off some of these invading Sapswill and we'll see how you fare."

You say,"Will do!"

*(Complete objective)*

You say,"Hail, Sergeant Haggus."

Sergeant Haggus says to you,"By the hilt of the Claymore, you're a strong one! I could use your strength for another task."

You say,"I'm ready!"

Sergeant Haggus says to you,"A platoon of my soldiers set out a while ago and hasn't returned. Search Sunset Meadow for these soldiers and return to me with your findings."

You say,"I will."

*(Complete objective)*

You say,"Hail, Sergeant Haggus."

Sergeant Haggus says to you,Ah, they'll pay for this! You've done well, Lazauras. Sometime when you're not so busy, maybe you'd take a job with the Qeynos Guard and we can fight along side one another again. Take this information back to Murrar. Farewell."

You say,"Farewell to you."

You say,"Hail, Murrar Shar."

Murrar Shar says to you,"Hmm... yes, these reports are disturbing indeed. I cannot place the source that tainted our beloved soldiers."

You say,"I agree. There's something behind all of this."

Murrar Shar says to you,"I can assure you that we will find out though. In the meantime, here is a reward for your continued assistance."

*The Queen's Colony is no longer a safe place for Qeynosians. A once peaceful clan of goblins has, for some reason, begun attacking the colony's inhabitants. I am to report to Sergeant Haggus outside the west archway and assist in his investigation into the cause of this uprising.*

* Sergeant Haggus has sent me to find out about some missing soldiers that have not returned. I should look for any sign of the missing soldiers in Sunset Meadow.
+ I should search past the barricades in Sunset Meadow for signs of the missing soldiers.
+ The missing soldiers were dead. Even worse, their remains seemed to rise from the dead and attack me as if controlled by some diabolical force.
