Stage 1 Minimum Level: 1285 Location:Mattix Sands (Waste) (2, 2) Required Item: None Required Kills: None

You find a half eaten Ghoul laying in the sand. You see a terrible agony on its face, but with its body destroyed it cannot escape it's inevitable fate of being consumed by the Zombies shuffling the Wastes. You take out your weapon and are about to put the foul creature out of it's misery, when you realize that it is not screaming but is silently mouthing 'H.e.l.p' You lower your weapon. Creatures such as these feast on the dead, maybe you could give the the Ghoul something to eat to ease its pain.

Stage 2 Minimum Level: 1285 Location:Mattix Sands (Waste) (2, 2) Required Item: Maggot Riddled Meat Required Kills: None

The staving Ghoul shudders in pain. Not wanting to get too close to the Ghoul, you lay the rancid meat beside it. You watch in disgust as a long black tongue licks the Maggot Riddled Meat, even against the torment the Ghoul rolls onto its side and sinks its fangs deep into the Meat. To your horror you see the broken bones warp and start to lengthen, then and flesh run over them like water. Skin wraps the newly formed limbs and in almost a breath the Ghoul is sitting on fresh legs licking it's long fingers. It smiles up at you, 'I see you did not expect that... You know I was once like you. Alive... I was a sailor, but ran aground and had to swim onto shore. We thought we were saved, but in the early morning a dark mist rolled over our camp. We choked in its fumes and most of my shipmates died right there. Turned into undead that wander the sands. I fled the fumes, but not quickly enough.' He stretches his new limbs, then licks his lips. You take a step back... The Ghoul slowly shakes his head, 'I mean you no harm Warrior. I thank you for feeding me the necrotic meat. The dark magic would kill you, but it heals and strengthens me. I may be a Ghoul, but I still have my mind. I do not wish to feed on the living, anyway - the zombie flesh has a surprisingly nice zing to it.' He winks and you chuckle despite yourself. 'I shall go get my other shipmates and bring them here, we have an endless supply of food just shambling around. I just need to warn them that these munchies have a tenancy bite back.' He smiles up at you, 'My name is Edger. You have made a friend.' Without another word the Ghoul leaps over your head and disappears over the sands with frightening speed. You receive 5,444,803 Xp
