The Tree of Souls

A Doomguide's Duty is a quest taking place in the Neverdeath Graveyard. Doomguide Volahk sends you out to help Acolyte Neyman cleanse the area around the Lynching Tree.

Objective

• Help Acolyte Neyman purge the undead from fields around the Tree of Souls.

Summary

Doomguide Volahk

For years the Tree of Souls was the site of choice for the mass burial of bandits and criminals. Many despicable men are interred beneath its roots, but so are innocent souls who were wrongly accused and unjustly executed.

As a result, the area near the tree is infused with an evil spiritual energy. Valindra's Thayan wizards have found a way to tap into this energy and are using it to fuel their rituals.

Acolyte Neyman believes a ritual cleansing of the area will disperse the energy, but she will need a protector during the ceremony. Go and speak to her.

Dialogue

Talk to Mina about the Ritual

Acolyte Neyman

I'm glad you are to be my guardian for this ceremony.

The power of Kelemvor protects me from the undead while I am performing the ritual, but I cannot complete the ritual while defending myself. It is your job to make sure I can concentrate on the rites and prayers.

Head to the Lynching Tree. I'll meet you there.

Player

I'll see you there, Acolyte.

Speak to Acolyte Neyman

Acolyte Mina Neyman

This is it! This is the place! I can feel the evil power pulsing from the tree. We must prevent the Thayans from using it!

Remember, I can protect myself from the undead while performing the ritual, but I can't make any progress toward completing it while under attack. Preventing that is your job.

Player

I understand.

Acolyte Mina Neyman

I have to perform the rites several times, in several locations to fully cleanse this place. Follow me!

Player

Let's go!

Completion

Doomguide Volahk

The loss of the corrupting power of the Tree of Souls should slow the Red Wizard's rituals.

Hopefully it has bought us the time we need to stop them completely!
