Zarai's Epic Journal

Kelkim Menkia kindly considers you -- what would you like your tombstone to say?

You say, 'Hail, Kelkim Menkia'
Kelkim Menkia sighs as she looks over her lute. 'My lute was mangled by those damnable gnolls! I have no idea how I'm going to get a new set of strings for it. They were so rare.'
You say, 'what rare strings?'
Kelkim Menkia says 'I only use the finest lute strings on my lute. My uncle got them for me from across the world. His name was Zendrik the Wurmslayer. As his name implies, he killed many wurms and drakes. The strings for my lute were all made from the guts of the wurms and drakes he slew.'
You say, 'which wurms and drakes?'
Kelkim Menkia says 'The strings were from a chromodrac, a red wurm and a huge onyx drake. It always sounded so wonderful.' Kelkim sighs, looking off to the horizon. As she shakes her lute angrily, she says, 'I'll kill all of you dirty gnolls!''

To get the guts, you need to kill the following:

Blackwing in Rathe Mountains I started this part last night, and got one of the pieces. Since Blackwing is the easiest of the three dragons, I made my way over to Rathe Mountains to slay him. The trick to getting him to spawn is to kill anything that pops at -1686.71, 5.68, 3.30. This location is in the valley that is marked 20 on the EqAtlas map for Rathe Mountains. This is also the valley where one of the sphinxs, and Rharzar hang out. Both of them were up last night, and I careful to stay out of their way. I was in the valley for about an hour before I found Blackwing's spawn point. Once I found it, I only killed two mobs before he popped. He was light blue to me at 48, and I killed him with a mixture of melee and chant kiting. He went down very easy, and I was able to get my Onyx drake guts.
