Walkthrough

This quest starts automatically after walking close to Elfsong Tavern (X:78, Y:1) in the Lower City. The Emperor's voice calls out that it was the location of his old hideout and that there may be useful supplies there that the party could take.

The button to the entrance

The entrance to the hideout is on the ground floor of the tavern, in the kitchen. There is a set of wooden stairs that lead to a storeroom (X:52, Y:8). Upon entering, if Roveer's Storehouse has not been completed, then a large group of rats instantly attack the party. After defeating the rats, enter the westernmost door. Near a crack in the wall, a button (X:-868, Y:544) can be spotted with a successful perception check. Hitting the button opens up a wine cask in the room next door (X:-861, Y:547). Going through this cask leads to the door to the hideout.

An Ambush

Ch'r'ai lies waiting...

A group of Githyanki soldiers are lying in wait in the hideout, led by Ch'r'ai Har'rak. Har'rak asks questions of the party and what the Emperor offered them in exchange for their servitude, but all of the options lead to combat. The Githyanki warriors need to be defeated to further explore the hideout. This encounter contains a paladin and two gatemasters, who are capable of summoning more Githyanki to the fight.

The Emperor's Special Items
