Walkthrough

Ernax the Scholar can be found on the first floor of the Athenaeum Necromantia in Paineel (1136, 899).

You say, 'Hail, Ernax the Scholar'

Ernax the Scholar says, 'Hello. Please leave me be. I am studying several interesting essays on mana storage devices.'

You say, 'I wish to speak to you on a matter of the soul'

Ernax the Scholar says, 'Hrmm. That's a phrase I have not heard for some time, and one I thought I would not hear again, any time soon. So another fool seeks Azrax's legacy, eh? Well, so be it. Take this and follow its instructions. When you are finished reading and scribing, give it back to me.'

--You receive a A Tattered Book.--

Which reads:

Another fool doth step upon this path to power. Another fool most assuredly will die. It is of no consequence
if you succeed or fail, the outcome is yours to decide. What is needed from you is to stalk the land as the
dark master you wish to be, and obtain the following components through stealth, guile, and deceit: An
assassins Bloody mantle, a druid of renown's pure heart, and a crystal of capturing. When done, place them
within the enchanted soul trap and incant upon them that they may be combined. If you have not failed
miserably, take the resulting Soul Trap to the soul you wish to manipulate.

Return the Tattered Book to Ernax to receive a Soul Trap (4 slot container).

The needed components are:

• a Bloody Mantle, from a Dark Assassin, which is a level 50 mob that randomly spawns from Faydwer to the Karanas, to Everfrost.
• the Heart of the Pure Druid, from Alania Peaceheart in Gfaydark (loc +1042, +1175), who drops a heart when killed.
• and a Crystal of Capturing, made by Jalen Goldsinger the Tox forest. (Mini quest, see below)

Ernax the Scholar in the Paineel Library asks not to be bothered as he is studying mana storage devices. When asked about a crystal of capturing, he responds that Jalen Goldsinger in the Tox forest can make them. When hailed, Jalen Goldsinger only comments about the murkyness of Tox forest. But when asked about the Heretics or about a Crystal of Capturing, Jalen says that he will make you one if you will bring him some of the components. He requires a Potion of Sorrow and 1000 gold.

The potion of sorrow is obtained from Gorth Bearsoul in Halas. He is the new barbarian in the torch shop who, when hailed, always responds with something about "not bothering a man when he is making potions" or some such.

Ask him about the potion of sorrow and you get:

"Ach! What ye be needin that fer? Only those of dark magic require such a thing and by my mother, never could i sell to such a soul. If yer soul be clean then put yer (money) in this enchanted pouch and i will know your intent. If yer soul be rotten i'll be known and you'll be dead. Indifferent I better be to your actions."

Following up on the money hint gets you:

"Suren ye didnae think I'd give ye a potion fer free? I'm needn 500 gold coins to make such an item. Hard to make and few are the uses fer such a potion."

First, give Gorth 500gp and you get the Potion of Sorrow (magic item, lore, no drop).

"Aye, I guess ye truly are a good soul. Good luck on whatever ye needed such a dread item fer."

NEXT give the potion and 1000gp to JALEN GOLDSINGER in TOX FOREST for the Crystal.

Combine these three items in the box and give it the completed soul trap to the Tormented Soul (must have a faction of at least kindly) and you will receive a Mantle of Souls.

Need all dialogues, current faction hits, /loc of quest mobs, missing quest items.
