Detailed Walkthrough

Xaselm

Relmyna Verenim is back at Xaselm and continuing with her experiments. Nanette Don can also be found there; now that Passwall has been invaded and retaken, she feels safer at Xaselm, although one wonders why. You need to go there and talk to Relmyna about a new heart for Syl. You can go in the back door this time.

Syl's new heart

You actually need two things, the new heart, and Relmyna's assistance in installing it. She has a heart from one of her experimental subjects that she thinks will be appropriate. The heart is strong, although the rest of the body was badly damaged (by Relmyna, directly or indirectly).

In return, Relmyna wants you to find a special item for her. The Tentacle of Intrusion is at a small ruin in the south of the Isles, not far from Corpserot Prison. There are a number of leveled undead guarding the entrance, and more in the partially flooded ruin beneath. There are several regular swamp tentacles growing down there, but the one you're looking for is in an urn at the end of the root tunnel.

Notes

• It is likely that the heart came from the experimental subject whose arm Relmyna removed, to see how she'd fight without it.
• It's unclear why Relmyna doesn't bring the heart to New Sheoth herself, but she gives it to you to take there.
• The Tentacle of Intrusion is given by Relmyna to Nanette Don. If you talk to the two of them later, they'll tell you more about it, and how pleasure is pain.

10		I need to go the Xaselm again, and ask Relmyna Verenim for a heart for Syl. We'll also need her assistance in rebuilding Syl from the pieces.
20		Relmyna has asked me to find something called the "Tentacle of Intrusion". I suspect she wants it to use in performing more of her experiments. She's marked a likely location on my map.
30		I've arrived at the old fort that Relmyna described. Now I need to find that Tentacle thing for her.
40		I found the Tentacle of Intrusion that Relmyna wants. I need to take it back to her at Xaselm.
50	0	Relmyna has given me a new heart for Syl. She tells me that it came from a young woman who showed remarkable resistance to pain. She has also agreed to come to the palace and help us with Syl's restoration.

Notes

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in random order.
• If an entry is marked as "Finishes Quest" it means the quest disappears from the Active Quest list, but you may still receive new entries for that quest.
• On the PC, it is possible to use the console to advance through the quest by entering setstage quest stage. Where quest is the internal name of the quest, and stage is the number of the stage you wish to complete. It is not possible to un-complete (i.e. go back) quest stages. See SetStage for more information.
