Added the bestiary quest routes and hunting rewards
Beasts of Khorinis is Cavalorn's five-volume hunting quest sequence. Finding and reading a Bestiary volume starts its task; take it to Cavalorn west of the Old Camp to learn what proof he needs. Several lessons depend on bringing the book before hunting its subject.
Volume | Book location | Completion | Reward |
|---|---|---|---|
I | Table in Jan's hut south of the New Camp entrance; Fisk also sells a copy. | Answer Cavalorn's three questions. | 50 XP and Take Skull Armor |
II | Unlocked chest in the Old Mine, or Wolf's hut in the New Camp. | Bring the Queen's Pheromone Gland from the Minecrawler Queen. | 500 XP and Extract Organ |
III | Farthest unlocked chest in the cave reached by hugging the left side of the Orc territory entrance. | Bring three Lizard's Bone Scutes. | 850 XP and Take Scutes |
IV | Table inside Shrat's hut west of the Swamp Camp. | Learn the harvest lesson, then bring one Swampshark Skin and one Chitin Plate. | 1,000 XP, 250 ore nuggets, and Take Shark Skin |
V | Round table behind Xardas after gaining tower access in Chapter 4. | Bring the Frost Shadowbeast's Skin from the tundra. | 1,500 XP and Extract Spine |
Question | Answer |
|---|---|
Where are the Scavenger's protective plates? | Along the upper part of the spine. |
What do the hollow skull chambers do? | They amplify their calls. |
Why do Scavengers flock together? | To defend their feeding grounds. |
Only one copy of the second book is needed. In the Old Mine, descend from Drake's bridge through the ladders toward Brandick. Follow the lower tunnel and take the left ladder by the Mistcaps to the unlocked chest. Wolf's hut provides an alternative if the mine is no longer available.
The Queen's Pheromone Gland comes from the Chapter 2 Minecrawler Queen. Giving it to Cavalorn earns Extract Organ. Riordan offers an alternative exchange in Chapter 3 for 300 ore nuggets or an Essence of Life worth 5 maximum Health, so decide before handing it over.
For the third book, the rocks left of the Orc territory sentries provide a way around their demand. Inside, stay against the left wall and enter the narrow passage to the cave. The farther chest contains the book; the other has three Sleep scrolls. Lizards near the rivers supply the three Bone Scutes.
For Shrat's hut, leave the Swamp Camp by the mashers' gate and follow the plank road. Turn left at the third lamp, pass the islet and large tree, then follow the wall ledge right toward the hut. Take the book while Shrat is turned away, or use Sleep if necessary. Show it to Cavalorn before killing Swampsharks so the harvest lesson is available. The Swampshark Mother can also supply the required skin and plate.
Learn Climbing before the tundra trip. Near the Old Mine approach, turn left before the mine entrance and find the climbable wall. Cross the cavern, clear the Goblins, take the ladder, and follow the climbing route across gaps and bridges. Beyond the waterfall bridge, continue up the cliffside to the snowy cavern and cross through it into the tundra.
Tundra Wolves occupy the route. At the path's far end, with a cave ahead, take the uphill turn right to the Frost Shadowbeast. It has higher Ice resistance than an ordinary Shadowbeast; Ball Lightning can stun it and Fist of Wind can push it back. Harvest the skin and bring it to Cavalorn. He teaches Take Fur before the hunt if the Hero still needs it.
Aiming High unlocks the Climbing lesson needed for the tundra route.
