A Woman dressed in a black hooded traveling cloak waves over to you. |
She smiles at you, 'Greetings Warrior, my name is Carrie. I am travelling through this Forest, as part of my Apprenticeship I must gather some items. I hired another to do the job, but he ran off when we came here with all the gold I had.' You look around at the twisted forest and wonder momentary what kind of Apprenticeship she was doing when she interrupts your thinking and says, 'I might not have gold, but I do have a powerful item I could give you in return for your help. I just require Plague Barb from the Sickly Thorns, they are quite easy to find on the Edge of the Forest.'
Get Carrie a Plague Barb from one of the Sickly Thorns in the Realm. Should be easy enough. |

Carrie waits for your return, 'Have you taken a Plague Barb from the Sickly Thorns for me yet?' |
The young Woman takes the Barb from you, 'This is just perfect, thank you.' Her face lights up with gratitude and you feel your chest warm. Carrie then pats you gratefully on the arm, 'I knew you could do it.' She gushes, 'Now I just need something from the Open Meadow. I'll meet you there.' |

Carrie waves over to you. |
She glances around, you see fear in her eyes. 'We need to watch ourselves here. There are Spirits called Moroi that move within the trees. But even evil can be turned to good.' She gives you a scroll and says brightly, 'Within this scroll you will find a way to turn the tide of the Moroi's darkness to something good. Please distill a Moroi Sight Potion for me. I will give you a trinket for your troubles.'

Carrie looks around furtively, 'Did you get the Moroi Potion I asked for?' |
Carrie's face floods with relief as she takes the Potion from you, 'These Moroi Undead frighten me more than most as you can't hear them coming. Here, take your reward. Let's get out of here. Meet me in the Terror Forest (Dead Wood) for my final step.'

Carrie waits for you in the silent Wood. |
The young woman frowns at you, 'I'm sorry Warrior but my next task is not a pleasant one. I am required to study the Creatures of this Realm. They are not what one would say is attractive. But it is required in my Apprenticeship. My parents would have me choose another way for my life. But I choose my own destiny. Not every step along the path of your life is enjoyable. But that is my choice.' She hands you a scroll.
'Please construct this item from the Slavering Mess that crawl within the Dead Wood.'

You find Carrie scribbling on a sheet of parchment, 'Did you get me the Hide?' She asks pleasantly. |

Carrie pours a liquid over the hide and for some reason smiles triumphantly at the sizzling result. 'Excellent, you have returned. I need the Mouth now. Do you have one for me?' |
You are unsettled by her ghoulish delight in the vile object, 'This is just perfect Warrior! Now just one more component and we are done. I shall reward you of course for your kindness.' She hands you yet another Scroll. 'Bring me the Rib cage of the Slavering Mess and we're done.'
You receive 1 x Slavering Ribs Recipe |

Required Item: Slavering Ribs
Required Kills: None
|
You return to find Carrie puzzling over the now burnt Hide. The mouth dangles in her hand like a grotesque puppet. She look up at you, 'I'm not having much success at the moment. Do you have the final ingredient?' |
She takes the Ribs from you, 'Well now, this is a strange shape for the ribs... But that would mean?' She picks up the Mouth and Hide again for a moment, then stops as she remembers you are there. 'Oh, I am sorry Warrior I always get carried away when faced with a good puzzle.' She laughs and kicks her backpack over. A necklace falls from it, 'Take my Necklace, it has proven quite useful to me in the past. Thank you for all you help Warrior, I would not wander further into the into the Forest. Stay away from the Central Deep, outsiders don't do well.'
She then smiles briefly and carries on with her grotesque puzzle. Turning from her you are suddenly haunted by a comment she said, that her Parents wanted something else for her life. But she had chosen another. You wonder what that path would be, that led her to be sat in a lonely Wood surrounded by grisly pieces of meat from a vile Creature. Her warning to stay from the Central Deep lingers, maybe you should see what Carrie has gotten herself into.
You receive 1 x Carrie Necklace |

Stage 9 Minimum Level: 1227
Location:Terror Forest (Central Deep) (9, 7)
Required Item: None
Required Kills: None

You do not find Carrie as you wander the Central Deep, but as you draw nearer the center of the Realm you see a large stone table with three figures hunched over it. |
You're first drawn to the three hooded figures however, as you get a better look at the Stone Table you see, to your horror, the still body of Carrie wrapped in her black cloak. You stride up to the Table when one of the Hunched Figures draws a Dagger. You see thick green poison running down it's edge...
You freeze to the spot. Only then do you realise that they are Witches.
One of the three smiles, she holds up an Orb then tilts her head. You flinch as you stare into her withered empty eye sockets. The old crone shambles forward, 'So Warrior. You enter our domain. Are you brave or foolish? I am the Second Mother of this Coven.' She points a bony finger at Carrie, 'This young one was a promising Apprentice. But she faltered at the final conclusion of her initiation into our fold. Now she pays the price for her lack of vision. We cannot have her running away with our secrets.'
The second Mother then steps closer to you, your skin crawls at her vile presence. 'But she is young and strong. Her body is resisting the poison. She might even live if she had her whole soul.' The other Coven Mothers start to chuckle mirthlessly. The old hag then hands you an ancient scroll, 'Some of our Sisters have parts of her soul trapped within a Hex Pouch. If you complete the Carrie Soul Stone, she might have a chance of recovery.' Then all three cackle at some unspoken joke.

Stage 10 Minimum Level: 1227
Location:Terror Forest (Central Deep) (9, 7)
Required Item: Carries Soul Stone
Required Kills: None
|
You return to the Stone Table, the three Coven Mothers chuckle at you, 'So, Brave Warrior. Have you the Soul Stone of this Apprentice?' |
You toss the stone on the Table, it spins on the worn surface. The Second Coven Mother makes a grab for it and the other two stop her. One croaks venomously, 'You cannot feast on it by yourself. You must share!' The Second Mother eyes the other two, then slowly turns her gaze on you. 'You are not as foolish as you appear, but I still see you are confused. Did you not see the large numbers of our sisters within our Forest? I thought everyone knew it took only 13 Sisters to make a Coven! The rest we feast on. The Stones you took are the souls of our Sisters, we drain them to sustain ourselves. But you cleverly put the Stone between us. But do not worry, once we have come to an agreement, the Stone is drained and we shall turn our attention to your life force. I feel you will be most potent and tasty!'
You then see the lie. Carrie is dead on the table, probably to be used as ingredients for some foul potion or hex. From your past experience with Witches you have hardly ever come away unscathed. You turn and run, you do not want to face three powerful Coven Mothers and feel no shame in flight.
You hear the Coven Mothers gasp in amazement, on the wind the rasping voice of the Second Mother haunts you, 'Yes, not as foolish as you look Warrior. You are only the second Warrior to run from us. You will only be the second Warrior to live after standing before us. Live well Warrior, and run far. For I still hunger after having to share my feast.'
