Map

A map of the area can be found at Kythryn's Journal here.

Tasks

On arrival to the area, there are 2 types of tasks available to complete for fame. For either task to award fame, first find the Su Helmas expedition ziggurat climber or the Su Helmas expedition graveyard explorer, and REDEEM your contract. To check that your contract(s) have been activated, check the bottom of your INFO. Each completed task will award 10 or 11 Su Helmas fame. You can check your fame with the TICKET command.

Noncombat Ward Puzzle

Moving east from the entry portal, you will see an undulating purple ward. To get instructions for manipulating the ward, STUDY the ward. On manipulating the ward, which is a random combination of PUSH, RUB & TAP, you can lighten the ward on a successful set of combinations until you complete the task.

Hunting

Each kill completes a single contract task. Only kill creatures that spawn for your character. Wandering around killing creatures that have spawned for others can result in not earning fame but will count as a kill and use up a contract. After REDEEMING your contract:

  • ASK CLIMBER ABOUT ACCESS for the creatures in the Ziggurat area
  • ASK EXPLORER ABOUT ACCESS for the creatures in the Desolate Field and Sunken Pit areas.

Seeds of Entropy

JOIN an empath wreathed in violet robes. They will summon a guide, who leads you deep beneath Su Helmas. You must perform a series of actions to navigate deeper in the catacombs until you reach a Seed of Entropy. Destroy it to complete the task.
