Background
You値l receive this quest from Master Thestrin in an underground chamber in the
Azunite Desert (#1).
Walkthrough
Thestrin will ask you to go to his family crypt (#2) and retrieve an
heirloom sword from it. The sword is protected by "an ancient statue with a fondness
for riddles." Thestrin will give you a hint for the riddle by telling you his family motto: "War
follows in the footsteps of men, and the abstinence of peace brings evil again." You can also find
the hint in your journal.
When you reach the crypt, the statue guardian will ask you a four-part question. If you get the answer
wrong, then a level 16 elite called a plated twisted shail will appear and attack you. Since elites
are a good source of rare equipment, you might want to get the answer wrong a few times (the shail
will appear at most five times) to see if it drops anything nice for you.
The answer to the riddle is Azunai, Xeria, Elandir, Zaramoth (or AXEZ, if you like acronyms). When
you get it right, the statue guardian will open the door behind it. In the room beyond, you値l find
a level 30 undead Azunite archer hero, the
heirloom sword, two regular chests, and one big chest.
Note: In Broken World, the undead Azunite archer hero is level 45 rather than level 30. This makes the quest stupidly difficult (the hero will kill your party members in one hit), and it means you値l either have to come back to this quest much later in the game, or else try some suicide runs to grab the sword before dying.
When you return to Master Thestrin, he値l automatically teach you a mysterious chant (Chant
15). But then you値l have a choice: to give him the
heirloom sword or to keep it for yourself. If you keep the sword, then that痴 it; the
quest will end, and Thestrin will go away unhappy. If you give up the sword, then Thestrin will
reveal that the first chant he gave you would actually hurt you, and he値l give you a second, "more
rewarding" mysterious chant (Chant 16).
Note: If you decide to keep the sword, then hang onto it. You'll need it in the quest
A Family Heirloom, Part Two. If you give up the sword, then it's not a problem. For that
case you'll be able to do the sequel quest without the sword.
