Dialog from quest:
Speak with Quartermaster Ferrin at loc=21976,12792,17108 dir=139 in the Roman Aqueducts.

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "A pox on those plutonian simpletons! Oh, hello to you, friend. Sorry, but you've caught me at a bad time. I had some supplies stolen this morning, and I'm quite sure that it was the [Plutonians] that did it."

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Aye, the Plutonians. Those pagans do everything they can to make our lives as miserable as possible. The fools think we're the enemy! Little do they know, we're fighting the real enemy, and if it wasn't for us they'd be snuffed out like a [candle]!"

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Aye, that's gratitude for you. We keep their hides safe from the war below, and they steal my [herbs]!"

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Yes indeed - a pouch of cooking herbs and spices. It's quite funny, actually. There are a number of herbalists among the Plutonians, and of course, their trade is medicinal herbs. I suppose the pilferers got word we'd be getting an herb shipment, and thought we were receiving medicine, so they stole the herbs. Now all they have is parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme. What [fools]!"

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Now, I do need those herbs back. I can't go feeding the men stew that tastes like boiled water, or they'd revolt. So - if I offer to pay you to get them back, would you be willing to do so?"

Will you retrieve the stolen herbs? [Levels 14-17]
You have been given the Stolen Herbs quest.


[Step #1] Ask Quartermaster Ferrin where you will need to look to find the [herbalists] that stole his herbs.

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Ah, thank you very much, friend! The troops will certainly thank you with every spoonful of tasty stew they gulp down! Now, let me tell you where you can find these [herbalists]."

Quartermaster Ferrin says, "They're down deep in the Aqueducts. From here, head down the ramp before me, then turn west and go down the next ramp to where Sergeant Garulon is standing. Run south past him, down another ramp to Guard Blumor's position. From there, run east and down the ramp, where Caraustam is standing, then go south to the end of the culvert and climb down the ladder. The herbalists will be nearby."

[Step #2] Kill plutonian herbalist and retrieve the pouch of stolen herbs. Go west from Ferrin, down the ramp, then south down another ramp. Run east from Guard Blumor, then down a ramp and south again. Climb down the ladder to find the herbalists.
  • Plutonian herbalists can be found at loc=24466,20177,16235 dir=172 Roman Aqueducts, careful getting here as you will need to pass by plutonian blades that have a high agro. You may need to kill several Plutonian herbalists before you find the pouch, took about 8 kills for me before it appeared in my inventory.


  • [Step #3] Bring the stolen pouch of the herbs to Quartermaster Ferrin to collect your reward.

    Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Ah, the (your class) returns, hopefully with my herbs! Were you able to get them back?"

    Quartermaster Ferrin says, "Well done! Well done indeed! You'll have to stop by at dinner time and taste the fruits of your success! Or should I say, the stew of your success! Haha! Here's your payment, friend, and may the Gods smile upon you!"
