DISCLAIMER: Your Steps and Tasks may be different

As taken from the experience of a 50 Light-spec'd Eldritch.)

[Step #2] Located Esras within the Hall of the Brotherhood, near the Chamber of Magic and speak to him about the items he requires for the Rite of Binding.
Hall of Brotherhood is the first house on the left after coming through the tunnel in TNN Loc=17094,23798,7010

Brother Esras says, "The Seneschal said you would be able to help me gather the materials while I make the rest of the preparations. Here is a list of what I will require and a bag to carry the reagents in. Return to me when you have gathered the items.

[Step #3] Right click on the List of Reagents and /use it to learn about where to find the first reagent. When you arrive at the area described, /dig to retrieve the item.

The first item I require for the rite is one of the eggs of the aquatic monster Caora. Travel to Connla's Well (50830,30346,4641) on the eastern edge of the Shannon Estuary and dig in the sands at the bottom of the pond for one of the monster's eggs.

[Step #3]Read the List of Reagents to locate the second reagent. (To read the list right-click on the item and type /use.)

The Rite of Binding also requires the eye of an Ollipheist. These giant lizards dwell on the southern border of the Shannon Estuary (19761,60522,4925), to the west of Ceannai. Slay one and place its eye in the bag with the other components.

[Step #3]Read the List of Reagents to locate the third reagent. (To read the list right-click on the item and type /use.)

In order to ensure a balance of forces, a enchanted sand must be spread around the summoning site. Travel to the entrance of Treibh Caillte in Lough Gur and look for a small pond to the southeast. Dig there and retrieve a small amount of the sand.

[Step #3]Read the List of Reagents to locate the fourth reagent. (To read the list right-click on the item and type /use.)

The tails of faerie mares are desired for their ability to aid in binding otherworldly creatures. Travel to the lakeshore town of Innis Carthaig and look out over the water. Swim to the island northwest of town and kill one of the mares for its tail.

[Step #3]Read the List of Reagents to locate the last reagent. (To read the list right-click on the item and type /use.)

The ritual's final component is a constricting potion, a dangerous concoction that can only be prepared by the most skilled of poison merchants. Sarena, the poison merchant in Innis Carthaig should be capable of preparing such a potion. Seek her out and ask her to brew the potion for you.

[Step #4] Return to Brother Esras, and give him the bag of supplies you've gathered.

[Step #5] Travel to the Cliffs of Moher and search for Brother Esras at cluster of stones
(Loc=10127,57251,5302 Cliffs of Moher) west of the entrance to the Kalinth Caverns and on the cliffs overlooking sea.

I went to the Kalinth Caverns via the unused mines. (At end of east track one go straight and then take each left until you hit a dead-end. You should see a crack in the wall to the right. Port through and you're in Kalinth Caverns)


[Step #6] Return to Seneschal Desmond in the Tir na Nog throne room and tell him about what you learned from the demon summoned by Brother Esras.

I chose to go back the way I came. There should be a crack in the wall shortly after you enter the caverns. Just port through and go back to Shar Laby.

You have earned 927 champion experience!
You are awarded 1,854,926,227 experience!
You are awarded 5 gold and some silver!
You have been given the Darkness Rising Chapter 2: Conspiracy quest.

Bah! I am on Step 1 and it isn't listed. I've got a bugged.

I talked to thge Seenschal to pick up the quest. My journal now says "When you are ready to resume your mission for the King, return to Seneschal Desmond in Tir na Nog."

When I go back to the Seneschal he gives me the same chapter-initiating conversation I just went through, and I get the window again that asks me if I want to accept the quest. I can't accept it again because my quest journal is full.

My theory is my quest journal just didn't advance to the next instruction. Perhaps if I had the word I need to click/say to the Seneschal it would advance the quest for me.

I tried going to Brother Esras, but he won't talk to me.

Any help?

I don't want to wait in the appeal line for 5 days again.

Just remove the quest of your journal mate :) and then go back to Desmond to get the quest again. I also recommend you remove any old quests you no longer wanna do, hope this helps.
