Walkthrough[]
The party must travel to Ravenshore and talk to Elgar Fellmoon at the Merchant House to complete the quest. The only way to leave the island is by going through the abandoned temple, so the party must first complete the Bring Brekish Onefang's portal crystal to Fredrick Talimere quest to be able to use the Dagger Wound Islands' teleporters.
The party must then make their way through the abandoned temple, a dangerous dungeon full of couatls and serpentmen. In one of the first rooms, the party must jump from platform to platform to avoid battle with couatls. If they fall down, they must kill the creatures. They can then use the four buttons (one in each corner) to raise up stairs to avoid jumping across the platforms. In the hallway just after the room, the party can find the Idol of the Snake to solve the Bring the Idol of the Snake quest.
The next room consists of a floor that the party will fall through, unless they follow a pre-determined snake-like pattern across the floor. If they fall down, they must battle more couatls. They can then go back up and try again. If they fall through the floor a few times, a red path will appear that the party can follow. to get across.
Then, there is a room with a spike trap in the floor. When the party try to open the door at the end of the room, the floor will slowly open, revealing a spike pit. There are two panels in each corner that must be activated to open the door. If the party moves too slowly, they die.
The last room has trapped tiles on the floor, visible in red. If the party step on any of them, a column at the center of the room will spit fire at them. The Prophecies of the Snake, needed for the Find the Prophecies of the Snake for Pascella Tisk quest, can also be found in this room. The party must avoid the red tiles and make their way across the room for a final battle with couatls and serpentmen.
When they emerge from the temple, the dock offers passage to Ravenshore. Head for the Merchant House (one of the closest buildings) and talk to Elgar Fellmoon (found in the room at the top of the stairs) to complete the quest.
