An Ayonic Journey - Quest

December 3, 2024 -- Census is back after a 3 day outage and characters are once again exporting. Please note if your EQ2 character used the new Petamorph Key Ring feature, it will FAIL to export to Census or EQ2U. Avoid using this feature until a fix is available!!

As a drastic measure, if you are willing to irrevocably destroy any petamorph wands you have stored in the Petamorph Key Ring, you can type /delete_keyring_item 0 1234567890 where 1234567890 is the ItemID of the stored petamorph.

Developers are aware of this issue, but you can always post your respectful feedback in the

Census isn't updating for some toons

thread.

An Ayonic Journey

Category: Signature

Heroic

Having encountered a revival of the mythical bard group, the Chaos Orchestra, I have come to believe that there is a powerful artifact on Norrath called the Ayonic Lute. This magical instrument is said to be forged by Ayonae Ro and holds her powers. Unfortunately, it may also hold a curse. I must track this Ayonic Lute down and see if I can wield its powers for benevolence.

I am not one to follow the fables of a bard's guild, but I believe that the secret of the Ayonic Lute rests within the words whispered by Maestro Konic Nostrolo, "look in the belly of a giggling fish."

Look for answers in "the belly of a giggling fish."

Find some answers at Bogbottom Mill in the Enchanted Lands.

Find a way to speak to Vhalen, a legendary bard who has been dead for over 400 years! (in Antonica)

In order to play the hagralaphone, I need Vhalen's composition called the Winds of Karana. He pointed me to the direction of the first Wind. That would suggest that there is more than one that I must collect.

"Where once I stood in sorrow, beside the life giving portal. Where once it was empty now there is a monument of Rallos removed." That is what Vhalen said.

The last ghost of Vhalen has given me a clue to finding the next verse in the Winds of Karana composition. The clue was, "In realms above the master awaits. In a breathing bronze vessel, I resonate."

"In realms above the master awaits. In a breathing bronze vessel, I resonate."

Somewere in the Poet's Palace there is the Vessel of Vhalen, the container of the local ghost of Vhalen.

The last ghost of Vhalen has given me a clue to finding the next verse in the Winds of Karana composition. The clue was, "Where once the flock rebelled I now stand behind hanging robes of harmony."

"Where once the flock rebelled I now stand behind hanging robes of harmony."

The last ghost of Vhalen has given me a clue to finding the next verse in the Winds of Karana composition. The clue was, "Under spires that pierce the night, play my key of excess removed and resting beyond baptism."

"Under spires that pierce the night, play my key of excess removed and resting beyond baptism."

I must head back to Rivervale and summon Hagralazoo the troll witch. I will summon the troll with the Hagralaphone that rests in the Laughing Trout.

Return to Rivervale and play the Winds of Karana on the hagralaphone. (in Rivervale)

Hagralazoo was summoned to Rivervale. Clues suggest she is somewhere attempting to face her arch nemesis.

Ask Hagralazoo about the Ayonic Axe. She should have been resurrected near the dwelling of her arch nemesis. (in Rivervale)

Hagralazoo must die! (in Rivervale)

I found a clue after defeating the spectre of the troll witch, Hagralazoo. She mentioned that only her minion of ice knew the whereabouts of the Wards of Kelkarn. She also let it slip that this minion was "...at the doorstep of the spires."

Follow the clue to find the location of the Wards of Kelkarn.

Speak to the Gwalnax Brigade historian at the Gwalnax Tower in the Burning Woods.

I have agreed to help Historian Holdak of the sarnak Gwalnax Brigade. In exchange for collecting precious sarnak relics in Chardok and returning them to him, he will give me the Wards of Kelkarn.

Retrieve the Flame of Shazzuk from within Chardok. (in Chardok)

Retrieve the Statue of Thi'Zok from within Chardok. (in Chardok)

Retrieve the Eye of Gorowyn from within Chardok. (in Chardok)

Retrieve Blood of the Betrayer from within Chardok. (in Court of Korucust)

Retrieve the Box of Tortured Delights from within Chardok. (in Court of Korucust)

Retrieve Hand of the Metal God from within Chardok. (in Chardok)

Retrieve the Runes of Gor from within Chardok. (in Chardok)

I have returned all of the sarnak artifacts to Historian Holdak at the Gwalnax Tower outside of Chardok.

Take all the historical artifacts to Historian Holdak at Gwalnax Tower outside of Chardok. (in Kylong Plains)

Play the Wards of Kelkarn, the chimes in your inventory.

Now that I have been protected against the curse placed upon the Ayonic Axe, I can return to questing for the magical intrument of melodic battle. I must find Vhalen's ghost somewhere in Kunark.

Locate and speak to a force of Vhalen bound to the continent of Kunark.

I must grab the Cabilisian Soul Key from the shade named Modeus. He can be summoned from a Yore Flame located somewhere in the land of dragons.

Find the Yore Flame that can summon the shade of Modeus. It is in the dragon lands.

Now that I have the Cabilisian Soul Key, I must track down the first three souls of the four creators of the soul key or their ancestors. Slaying them should fill the key with a portion of their soul.

Find a powerful entity that carries the name Vekin.

Find a powerful entity that carries the name Guralz, a Sathirian ambassador.

Find a powerful entity that carries the name Nagol, a praetorian officer.

There is one more chamber to fill in the Cabilisian Soul Key and then I can grab the Ayonic Axe. Lucky for me, the final target is Drusella Sathir, the one that guards the Ayonic Axe within Charasis. Oh yes... lucky me.

Go to Charasis and slay Drusella Sathir. (in Charasis: Maiden's Chamber)

I should now be able to see the Ayonic Axe and interact with it since I hold the Cabilisian Soul Key. The axe should be disguised as one of a number of musical instruments.

Find the Ayonic Axe. It is disguised as a musical instrument within Charasis.
