Lore & Dialog
Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "Have you found a Plate Armoredillo Spine yet? I cannot help you until you've brought me one of those."

You give Maqudh al Nishadina Plate Armoredillo Spine. Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "Yes, this will do. I need this to reinforce the blade, which will break under the power of the enchantments I plan to - but that is not important right now.  The next step is for you to bring me a Shadow Fragment.  Yes, you must slay Shadows, those blots of corruption.  Collect enough of their shards until you have combined them into a Shadow Fragment.  We can go no further until you bring me that."

Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "Yes, you've given me the Plate Armoredillo Spine... I asked you to assemble a Shadow Fragment for me, didn't I? Hunt those terrible blights upon creation until you have collected enough material to combine into a Shadow Fragment.  Once you give me the Fragment, we can discuss final steps to improving your Silifi."

You give Maqudh al Nishadina Shadow Fragment. Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "Excellent. This Shadow Fragment will help me repair the setting on the axe...  But in the meantime, you need to seek out the final ingredient...  There is a crypt not too far from here, ruled by a terrible undead lord named Darayavaush.  In life he was a great king, but in undeath he is a terrible tyrant.  Go and destroy Darayavaush, and bring me the ruby he carries.  It is his ruby that will provide the enchantment for your improved Silifi.  Darayavaush resides in a crypt among his minions located at 12.3 N, 8.2 E."

Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "I've received the Shadow Fragment and the Plate Armoredillo Spine from you... But what of the ruby? I asked you to take Darayavaush's ruby.  That old undead lords over a crypt located at 12.3 N, 8.2 E.  Go there and take his ruby."

Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "I can see the light of the ruby shining out of your pack. Please hand it over."

You give Maqudh al Nishadina Ruby of Crimson Night. Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "Excellent. This is the final ingredient I require.  I can now construct for you a new gem setting to add to your Silifi of the Crimson Stars.  As I said, it will imbue your Silifi, with whatever combination of jewels you currently have, with the power of Critical Strike and Lightning Cleaving.  However, this new gem setting can only be applied to a Silifi that already has three gems attached to it.  You will not be able to use this on an incomplete Silifi.  Take this, and go forth with your new Silifi of Crimson Night." You've earned 4,817,868 experience. Maqudh al Nishadina gives you Crimson Night Gem Setting. Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "If your are not an axe wielder and do not want this item, while I have to wonder why you bothered to speak with me, then I will take back the gem setting in exchange for some practical knowledge."

Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "I've already given you an infusion to improve your Silifi of the Crimson Stars, I believe."

You give Maqudh al Nishadina Crimson Night Gem Setting. Maqudh al Nishadina tells you, "A pity you have no use for this... Then again, we can't all be strong enough to wield such a mighty axe.  Perhaps some practical knowledge will serve you better." You've earned 2,064,801 experience.
