Lore & Dialog
Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit, Mistress of the Golden Shore, Keeper of the Kilika Vale in Ualannan's absence, lays beneath over thirty thousands years of weight. She has been silent these years imprisoned beneath her temple, bound by those who called her sister." Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Once she walked amongst children of other suns and ushered them along a quickened path. Heresy! Cried our sisters and a great hunt began within our sect. A schism grew and swallowed our sisters in madness. They drew chains of mana about our immortal forms and locked our eternal bodies away." Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Qin Xikit was the first to feel the sting of her sister's barbs, locked into a temple of her crafting, sealed away with the power of her crown." Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Eternal silence is shattered and Qin Xikit stirs in her tomb. A gateway has opened and through it comes consumption. Sealed in her tomb the matron can do nothing and the spirits therein are all but gone. I am the last to hold vigil." Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Seek her crown. Xi Ru consumed in madness, sealed Qin Xikit away. The crown must be found and the gateway to Qin Xikit's temple must be opened. At long last I can see Xi Ru's island, the magic that once locked it from sight has failed, a sister has succeeded at breaking the wards." Watcher of the Dead tells you, "Rejoice! Absolution is at hand."

In the great Ziggurat of Qin Xikit,  has struck a mortal blow against King Browerk. The bulbous leader of the Burun erupts in a violent spasm and collapses in a fit of explosive mana emissions. The leader will return in time, but the victory should be enjoyed for the moment. Huzzah, !

Guard Haigh gives you Gem of Damage Addition. You've earned 56,184,660 experience. Guard Haigh tells you, "This is for your efforts against the Burun Kukuur, King Browerk. You will need to wait three weeks before returning to me for another reward. If you wish to change your title and you have a scrap of Browerk's hide I will accept the hide and name you Browerk Killer!"

You give Guard Haigh Browerk's Hide. Let it be known that  has faced and defeated Browerk! Let it be known that from this day forth  shall be known as Browerk Killer! Huzzah! Huzzah! Huzzah!
