Story Quests are Quests which are considered part of the "Main Quest" of the Project Gorgon. These quests use the keyword "MainQuest" in the json files and Category:Quests/Story Quests on the wiki.
Part 1: Serbule & Serbule Hills
The Story Quests begin when a player first reaches Serbule or Serbule Hills and speaks with a projection of Yurra. Reading through Yurra's conversation will start the quests Brain Bug Infestation and The Red Crystal.
- If a player teleports off Anagoge, Yurra will be found east of Serbule Keep on a stone pedestal near some rocky hills.
- If a player leaves Anagoge through the Serbule Hills Spider Cave, Yurra will be just outside the cave.
- Known Issue: Sometimes Yurra may vanish. One method to force her appearance is to enter then exit the Spider Cave.
Brain Bug Infestation
The Red Crystal
- Begin this quest by speaking with Yurra.
- Complete this quest by finding Blanche and speaking with her, beginning Get Crystal Samples.
Get Crystal Samples
- Begin this quest by speaking with Blanche in Serbule Keep. You must work your way through a conversation which will start the quest and give you the .
- Known Issue: Unlike most quest related items in the game, you will only ever receive one . Do not dispose of it.
- Travel northeast out of Serbule Keep until you see a large red crystal. Using the Geomancy Awl on the crystal will spawn Strange Deer. Defeat them to collect 5 .
- Return the Rubywall Crystal Fragments to Blanche to complete the quest.
- Completing this quest unlocks the Unlocking the Crystal Lattice quest from Velkort, but it is not part of the Story Quests.
Part 2: Eltibule
Completing both Brain Bug Infestation and Get Crystal Samples will automatically start the next part of the Story Quests, Chasing Dalvos to Eltibule.
Chasing Dalvos to Eltibule
- Begin this quest by going through the portal from Serbule to Eltibule.
- You must use the portal from Serbule to Eltibule to advance the quest.
- Known Issue: If you use a teleportation pad or another method to reach Eltibule, the quest will not properly advance. You must return to Serbule and take the portal back to Eltibule to continue the quest.
- After the quest successfully advances, you must speak with Oritania in Eltibule Keep to start the quest Learn Oritania's Secret Info.
Learn Oritania's Secret Info
- This quest tasks you to complete some additional favors for Oritania, which include the quests Kill Goblins and Kill Spiders. It is unclear of the quest Oritania's Navel Ring given by Larsan is also required, but it seems unlikely.
- Known Issue: If you completed Kill Goblins or Kill Spiders before receiving Chasing Dalvos to Eltibule or advancing that quest to its "Find someone who knows about Dalvos" stage, the quest Learn Oritania's Secret Info may not be available. Some players in this situation have found that returning to Serbule, traveling back to Eltibule, then speaking with Oritania again may auto-complete this quest.
- Speaking with Oritania after completing her favors will unlock the quest Find Dalvos's Machine Parts
Find Dalvos's Machine Parts
- Begin this Story Quest by completing Learn Oritania's Secret Info and reading through a new conversation.
- Travel into the Goblin Dungeon and head to the lower floor. You will need to collect three items which might each be hidden in one of seven different chests between the entrance to the upper floor and the Ancient Beacon.
- Known Issue: Players who enter the Goblin Dungeon after receiving the quest and collect all three items in a single trip have not reported issues with this quest. Players who leave the dungeon or travel to the upper floor may have difficulties finding whichever of the three key items they did not initially collect, and it reportedly takes a few trips into the dungeon to get the missing item(s) to spawn in chests.
- Return the three items (, , and ) to Oritania to complete this quest and start Get Jesina's Help.
Get Jesina's Help
- Oritania's conversation which completes [Find Dalvos's Machine Parts]] also begins this quest and gives you the broken version of the .
- A conversation with Jesina leads to the start of the Save Sarina quest.
Save Sarina
- Start this quest by speaking with Jesina.
- Return to the Goblin Dungeon under Eltibule Keep and search for Sarina, who can be spoken to after defeating Algapa and the surrounding mobs.
- After freeing Sarina, return to Jesina.
- Speaking to Jesina will complete the quest, teach the Art History skill, and unlock the Story Quest Meet with Jesina and Sarina. It will also unlock the regular favor quests Pick-Me-Up, Flitterbies (Comfortable favor with Jesina), and Sarina's Lost Clothes (Friends favor with Jesina).
- Known Issue: Players who free Sarina can complete Save Sarina before they receive Get Jesina's Help, but they might have to re-enter the Goblin Dungeon and save Sarina again to progress. Occasionally Sarina will also respawn in the dungeon months or years after a player completes Save Sarina, but the respawn does not appear to impact progression.
