Releasing Jester

See also: Jester

Overview

 * Prerequisites
 * This quest coincides with, and requires completion of, the Lord Mhoire Quest (GY Colo) to obtain the key.
 * Due to the timer on Jester Prison Key, you have 24 hours (real time) to complete Releasing Jester before the key crumbles to dust.

Walkthrough & Notes

 * 1) Return to Jester's Prison and give the key to the door to be portaled to the next section.  Note that every person must have a key to get to the next section!
 * 2) * Optional You can skip doing the dungeon portion of part 1 by giving the wall at the drop Laylana's Love Letter. However, the quest rewards are different and this does not flag you to do part 2 if you have never completed part 1.
 * 3) Move through the dungeon and use switches to open doors, ignoring the lifeless guardians.  Eventually, you'll come to a door with a switch in a side room that is stuck.  Nearby is another wall on the radar that you can talk to.  Give the wall Laylana's Love Letter, this will activate the nearby switch and also cause the guardians in the dungeon to attack you.
 * 4) Continue moving through the dungeon.  You will encounter several rooms with switches you must pull in a progressive order.  See the map for details.  Each alcove room typically has 2 switches, one that opens the next alcove in the sequence, and one that reopens the door to that alcove.
 * 5) Eventually you will reach the trap hallway with the arcane pyramids.  These pyramids are usually a quick death if you get hit.  They are the same pyramids as the ones on the Empyrean Rescue Quest and Hoshino Must Die.  Watch the pattern of pyramids as they come down the hall and zigzag to the safe side hallways as you move forward.  Use the door in the next room to reach the final room (safe drop).
 * 6) * Note that if you die, you can easily get back by using the Jester's Prison portal again in Graveyard. Answer 'Yes' when prompted to return.
 * 7) Kill the pillar in the middle of the final room (Jester's Entombment Wall).  The pillar can be vuln'd before attacking.  When it reaches 50% health, the Jester will summmon some guardians to attack you.  Once the pillar dies, the Jester will be freed and will spawn nearby.
 * 8) * If you die in the last room, you can easily get back by using the Jester's Prison portal in Graveyard and answering 'Yes'.
 * 9) Speak to the Jester two times to receive all possible rewards.
 * 10) Return to Layla and speak to her for the remainingy rewards.

Opening Dialog

 * Jailer tells you, "Begone! Only Lord Cynreft may visit the prisoner."
 * Jailer tells you, "You have not heard of the prisoner? So powerful and so very mad. Once he entertained the court of Mhoire with his antics, but that was before the betrayal. Now he is imprisoned here for all time."
 * Jailer tells you, "Go now. You have no business here."

Giving Laylana's Love Letter to Wall

 * You give Wall Laylana's Love Letter.
 * A very loud whisper can be heard coming from the hole in the wall. "Thanks for the letter! Things get kind of crazy in here sometimes, but I can hold on now that I know she still loves me."
 * The Jester tells you, "Psst! You can go on just a bit further into the prison and help me out. It's not that dangerous really. Just a little deadly. Find my entombment wall and knock it down. That's all, just a little demolition and I'll be out of your hair. It's really not asking too much is it?"

The Jester

 * The Jester says, "I would have gotten out on my own, but Cynreft wouldn't let me bring my hammer and chisel."
 * The Jester says, "Hey, I'm trying to sleep! Keep it down!"
 * The Jester says, "My music wasn't that loud!"
 * The Jester says, "How many adventurers does it take to knock down a wall?"
 * The Jester says, "Show that wall who the wall bully is!"
 * The Jester says, "Go Team, Go! Knock away that stupid wall! You the best fighter or wizard or archer of them all!"
 * You flatten Jester's Entombment Wall's body with the force of your assault!
 * The wall crumbles and something flashes by you. Mad giggling fills the room.
 * Jester says, "Wahoo! I'm free! I'm free!"
 * Jester says, "Boy it feels good to stretch my legs!"
