Recruiter: Scout Miigle, South Ro camp · Theme: Deepest Guk · Portal: Innothule Swamp

What the recruiter says

Hail: Scout Miigle says, 'Hail, . We are looking for a brave crew of adventures to assist us. We must act quickly to save a prominent Guktan from the depths of Deepest Guk. We haven't heard from him since he went down there to explore the odd occurrences. If you can rally the call of your friends perhaps you can help us with this serious [problem].'

[problem]: Scout Miigle says, 'Very bad news! Bidip Moktu, one of the leading officials in Gukta, has been captured by a Witness of Hate! We have sent a regiment to rescue him but they have not reported back. We need you to assist us in rescuing Bidip Moktu and putting a stop to whatever unnatural magic is occurring in Deepest Guk. Please say you'll return our people safely. Are you [interested]?'

[interested]: Scout Miigle says, 'I hope to so Bidip Moktu again soon, and in one piece.'

How it plays out

1. Talk to Bitle Cogswin. He explains that the prisoners are held in three rooms, each guarded by Lich Rtrangi's minions, and that Rtrangi will know the moment you are sent in. Split into three groups, and have each group tell him where to go: the [vine] room, the [crevice] room, or the [aqueducts].
2. Hold off the waves. When a group arrives: "Lich Rtrangi senses the intrusion. The halls fill with the sound of his minions." Waves of minions keep coming. Some of them are Ritualist Summoners making for the lich ("A Ritualist Summoner slips out among the minions and makes for Rtrangi's chamber!"). If one gets there: "The ritual is prepared -- Rtrangi's power triples!" Stop them on the way.
3. Kill the three Ritual Guardians together. The first Guardian to die starts a short countdown: "A Ritual Guardian falls! The remaining circles flare -- the others must fall quickly." If the other two aren't dead in time, "The broken circles reignite! The Witnesses of Hate restore their guardians." and you start this step over.
4. The ritual breaks. When all three are down: "Your victory has weakened a shroud of magic cloaking the dungeon's treasure." Bitle shouts, "Now you have done it. The ritual has failed now all that is left is to destroy Rtrangi so that he can never try this again." Rtrangi loses his protection and sends his last summoners: "Go now my summoners and prepare the prisoners, let nothing stop you from executing your goal."
5. Kill Lich Rtrangi. "Your victory has shattered the shroud of magic surrounding the dungeon's treasure."

Reward

Three chests appear where Lich Rtrangi falls.
