A Godless Blight

Recommended Level: 32
Quest Giver: Lanike
Prerequisite: Complete Brothers in Arms
Unlocks: N/A
Location: Amyklai Farm in Forest of Eurotas, Lakonia
Reward: Medium drachmae, rare heavy bladed weapon (Spartan Grain Scythe), medium XP
Story: At Magistrate Xanthe’s request, you venture to a farm in the fertile valley of Lakonia to investigate the blight.

Speak to Lanike at the farm to begin your investigation of the blight. Talk to the helots who currently work the fields, Maron and Teuta; the order doesn’t matter. Talk to Maron the helot and threaten him or offer to help. With the former choice, defeat him and talk to him again. If you offered to help, find and acquire a hoe next to the silo and deliver it to Maron. No matter your choice, next you must investigate by the river. The body, debris, and ibex carcass must be interacted with to complete the investigation. Finish his task by carrying the three dead bodies out of the river. Drop them off in the previous investigation area.

Talk to Teuta the helot and either threaten her or ask what she needs. If you choose to fight, defeat her and then talk to her again. If you offer to help, you must acquire mint for her from the table next to the farmhouse and return it to the helot. No matter which choice you make, next you must investigate the field. Interact with the tanner’s oil, stained earth, and crushed plants. Then, burn the contaminated crops with torches. Be sure to burn every bit of the U-shaped area.

Once you have dealt with both helots, talk to Lanike
