Walkthrough

Approach the Glyph Wall in the Mud Flats or pick up a glyph to start this quest.

Investigate the Mud Flats for a way to lower the water

Look around the Mud Flats for some clues about how to lower the water. There is a strange wall that looks like it needs three objects. Tarkleigh may have more ideas.

Tarkleigh: There's something down there in that tidal tunnel, and I'd wager it's got to do with those empty glyph sockets on the cliff face. But whatever filled those sockets... long gone now. If they're shiny, they'll be adorning some rhoa's nest.

Find the Glyphs in the Rhoa Nests

In order to unlock the cave entrance you must find all three glyphs. They can be found in Rhoa nests in Mud Flats.

Tarkleigh: I’ve spent enough time smuggling from coast to coast to know that those shells don’t come from these waters. They’re Karui, and look about right to fit into that rock wall in the mud Flats. I say complete the set, fit them into the sockets, and stand well back.

Take the Glyphs to the glyph wall

In order to unlock the cave entrance you must take the three glyphs to the glyph wall

The Cave is now open. Talk to Tarkleigh for your reward

The Submerged Passage is now open. Speak to Tarkleigh for your reward.

Tarkleigh: Now that you’ve drained that passage, best I warn you about something.

I ws running down a wounded rhoa, one night’s eve, when I glimpsed something in that water-logged cavern. Looked a bit like a sand spitter, only the size of a bloody ox.

I reckon it’s nesting down in those flooded depths somewhere. If you’re going that way then do us a favour. Spill the old shield crab’s guts before it gets hungry and comes looking for us.
