	SPOILER ALERT!
	This article reveals in-game secrets, spoilers, walkthroughs, or other information not intended for general knowledge in-game.

Things You Will Need & Where

• a woodcutter's hatchet - You can get these from Grek's Food and Supplies in Kaerna's Village for 500 Kronars.
• a sanrisi tree branch - You will get one of these during the quest.
• a dark talisman - You will get one of these during the quest.
• a carving knife - Novices can get one of these from the kitchen in the Tenderfoot Inn's Kitchen. The Inn is located in Jadewater Mansion. Once in the kitchen nod at the Cook and read or SKIP what he has to say then ACCEPT the carving knife when he offers it to you. Then you can leave or continue to read what he has to say. You can also purchase one at Tobb's Smithy in Knife Clan for 375 Kronars.

Ghouls and madmen near Dirge also carry carving knives.

Obtaining the Sanrisi Tree Branch

You will have to find a sanrisi tree, one of which can be found on the pathway to Dirge or another which can be found near the death spirits in Leth Deriel's Forest of Night. When you find one you will have to LOOK tree.

The sanrisi trees read:

"A woodsman's skill will release the fruit. To take the fruit would be

to cut ones arm away. From the souls nearby the water drinks. Immersed in liquid, it walks

the first step. From death it lives. Raised earth seeks the offering. Coins of gold, lined 50

in a row, bring forth red as blood."

With your woodcutter's hatchet in your right hand and nothing in your left, CUT SANRISI TREE WITH MY HATCHET until a branch falls from it. GET BRANCH.

Successfully cutting a branch from the tree requires 50 ranks of the Outdoorsmanship skill

Creating the Talisman

1. With the branch in your left hand and a carving knife in your right, CARVE MY BRANCH until it becomes a dark talisman.
2. At this point you will need to find a pool of holy water like the one in Riverhaven's Temple. With your talisman in your right hand and nothing in your left, DIP MY TALISMAN IN WATER.

Carving the Talisman

Steps to Carving Properly

1. With your talisman in your right hand and nothing in your left, RUB MY TALISMAN until it is attuned to you.
2. Then with your carving knife in your right hand and your talisman in your left hand, CARVE MY TALISMAN until you bring out the 'fine details'.
3. You now have a completed Dark Familiar talisman!

Notes

Kort potion and making an offering at the mound outside the Crossing west gate is no longer necessary.
