Request from Kerath Punox in Demiplane of Decay
Keyword to request is "assistance"
Task locks upon HA assignment. It appears that the collectibles are up at the start of the HA.
Use EQ Navigation and find zone connection Lxavnom. This will take you to a tomb. Click on it and select the adventure button to take you to your instance.

I got these 4 steps from EQ resources.


Step 1: There are two levels to this zone. The main level which you zone into and a basement, which you access by clicking on the throne in the room you zoned into. Areas that you can reach for one task when doing an HA may not be available for a different HA.



•A special customer would like the heads of things called Lepertoloth, whatever that is. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
Main floor, straight west from where you zone into.

•Deliver religious texts for a special collector. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
Off mobs in the basement.

•Bring the heads of some gross sounding things called a bubonians for a special customer. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•Gather religious texts for a special collector. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
The items were on the Bubonian mobs, main floor, in the caves to the north.

•Bring the heads of the servants of health for a special customer. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
Mobs in the basement.

•Scythes. Scythes are very popular in Neriak these days. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

Step 2:


•Gelatin for a customer. No, I didn't ask why they wanted diseased and corrupted gelatin 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•There is a person that makes candles in creepy skulls. Bring some creepy skulls 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•A client want fetid hides for making magical garments. Gross magical garments. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•A customer wants to play a weird joke on someone. Bring some huge rat tails. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•I've heard there are winged avatars of Health in there. Their feathers should fetch a fortune. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
They are in the basement.

•Maggots. Some old witch uses them medicinally, she said. For her cats. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•Some priest, stupid man, wants bandages from undead in Decay for some sort of healing thing. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
Main level, straight west from the zone in.

•Bring some unicorn horns. Those things are always valuable. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

•Bring some grumling toes for a special customer in Freeport. 0/4 (Ruins of Lxanvom)
These were on the Bubonian Mobs in the caves to the north, main level.

Grublus or its PH will spawns in various locations based on the HA you are given. Turn Grublus away from your group when you fight him or he will drain your mana.


Step 3:

•Speak to Mers about how it went. 0/1 (Ruins of Lxanvom)

Step 4:

•Open the chest 0/1 (Ruins of Lxanvom) This completes the HA.

Updated, but to be honest the actual quest write up for this task is a mess of user input dropped together. If someone wants to rewrite it all (that knows the task) and post it under the task it will get updated again. Thanks.

You say, 'Hail, Kerath Punox'

You say, 'private'
Kerath Punox says 'Ah, you again. I appreciate your help with that other [job]. It seems that a bit of a war is breaking out. When that happens there is always a small bit of profit to be made in hooking up the right parties with those that need them. You are just such a party. If a fight doesn't scare you, then I may have something [for you] to do.'
You say, 'job'
Kerath Punox says 'A good choice. I am uncertain exactly what it is that they are in need of. There will be a list of some sort available to you once you arrive. I know that is very little information, but it seems that my contacts only want you to know what they desire. For some reason they do not trust me. Under that condition, are you [still interested]?'
You say, 'still interested'
Kerath Punox says 'Well chosen. You know the way to the Plane of Health, I'm sure. Be warned, things have changed some since you last passed that way.'
You have received a request timer for 'In Defense of Health': 0d:0h:5m remaining.
You have been assigned the task 'In Defense of Health'.

Speak to Lashun Novashine.
Task Window Says: Speak to Lashun Novashine to get more details on where your help is needed
Lashun can be on different spots depending on what steps you get. In one, he is to the right when you zone in – otherwise use ”Find”.

You recieve a Whistle of Summoning

Speak to Lashun Novashine.
Lashun Novashine says 'We're being invaded by the armies of Decay. Any help you can lend to push them back is greatly appreciated. Show them no mercy!'
========================================================================
STEP #2
========================================================================
Kill enemy invaders from the Plane of Decay 0/8 (Plane of Health)

When clicking the whistle on the wrong mob:
The whistle makes no sound. Perhaps you should use it only when really needed?
When used on a virulent brute, you get 2 winged defenders to help tank/dos

Lashun's whistle does only work on the correct mobs. Used them on the virulent brutes today, and while the winged defenders popped and help, there were no update for killing the brutes.

You say, 'Hail, Kerath Punox'
Kerath Punox says 'Ah, yes. My brother has spoken of you, Vanrau. I'm sure he told you what our business is, so I won't bother you with that. All I want to know is whether you are interested in some [private] work, you and a few friends. Or are you one of those folks that prefers a [larger endeavor]?'
You say, 'private'
Perhaps you should speak with Quellious about her worries.
Kerath Punox says 'I'm sorry, I must have mistaken you for someone else.'
You say, 'larger endeavor'
Kerath Punox smiles, but does not respond.
Perhaps you should speak with Quellious about her worries.
