"What Happened Here?" is a task given by <Insert Name>, the Shaman Guildmaster, in New Sebilis Expedition. Once all steps are completed, you are rewarded with New Sebilisian Expedition faction, and New Sebilisian Bindings.

Steps:

* '''Ask Orator Zikorisy [what happened here].'''
* '''Find a scroll for Orator Zikorisy that helps fill in the gaps'''
**The scroll can be found in a side room, on a table top, just outside of the safe area.[[File:First Scroll.png|thumb]]
***''You pick up the ancient, crumbling scroll as delicately as you can, holding your breath, and scan the words written withing... "According to our translations, the desert above and around us was once part of a massive forest called the 'Elddar Forest', which was apparently the ancestral home of the elves. For some unknown reason, the city at it's heart, caught the ire of the gods, and was smote from the surface. These elves were adept magic users, and tried their best to fight against their encroaching doom, first by bolstering the forest itself, and second by using the earth itself. Their efforts appear to have been in vain, causing them to slowly move underground, trying to escape the curse. -Zikorisy" As your eyes move across the last line, the scroll begins crumbling to dust in your hands.''

* '''Tell Orator Zikorisy what you [found].'''
** /say found - Orator Zikorisy says, ''"It disintegrated you say? That is most unfortunate, but I'm glad to hear that you were able to read it before it crumbled completely. What you describe does definitely jog some memories, but I dare say that you should go talk to Jabitzu, the Defector, to try to get more information about the curse.''
* '''Ask Defector Jabitzu about [the curse].'''
** /say the curse - Defector Jabitzu says, "''The curse?.. Oh, oh! You mean why we found this place empty when we landed all those years ago. According to what records we could find, the desert above used to be a massive forest, in which dwelt many elves, but their grandeur, for whatever reason, brought about the ire of the gods. Given the gulf of time between that event and our landing here, we assumed we'd be safe from whatever wrath befell those before us, but we were [wrong]."''
** /say wrong - Defector Jabitzu says, ''"After we'd spend some time here, and translated the elves work, we started bending their spells to our design where we could. Given the residual magic that flows here is exceptionally potent, whether it's natural, a result of a godly smiting, or a combination of the two, we decided to try and try some [experiments of our own]."''
** /say what experiments of our own - Defector Jabitzu says, ''"We started small, in scope, if not size. We began by imbuing the sand around us with protective magics, and then tried grafting it into the clay that we'd normally use to create our golems. The thought being that the combination of the enchanted sand that has been soaking in the magic of this place, and the animating powers of the golems, would create stronger, hardier golems. Unfortunately, that didn't quite [go to plan]."''
** /say go to plan - Defector Jabitzu says, ''"I recall that the experiments were showing promise at first. Some of us kept pushing forward with them, while others poured over the remaining tomes, trying to find any scraps of information they could. Given the age of the books, and the pain of translations, we had our chroniclers, like Zikorisy, write out the more interesting bits as scrolls. I wonder if they ever found which god, goddess, or gods, smote this place. What say you? Care to go search the bookshelves for any records you can find?''
* '''Find a scroll that details who cursed the forest.'''
**This scroll is found on a bookshelf, slightly further outside of the safe area.
***[[File:Forest scroll location.png|thumb]]''As you unfurl the scroll, you can feel the material start to break down, and start reading quickly, scanning for important information. "After more searching, and more translating, it appears that the god responsible for the destruction was none other than Solusek Ro, the Burning Prince! According to their records, the sun hung directly overhead for a full week, scorching the great forest, and drying up many of the small lakes and ponds in the area. -Oushae" As expected the scroll starts to crumble as you near the end.''

* '''Tell Defector Jabitzu about [ro's meddling].'''
** /say ro's meddling - Defector Jabitzu says, ''"Solusek Ro was the meddling god, you say? That does make some things make sense. Namely why fire and heat magic seemed to reign supreme here... Apologies, I got caught up in the memories. Near the southern end of the complex is a larger square white room, it's walls lined with book shelves. There you should be able to find some remnants of the experiments, and hopefully another scroll. Go, glean what information you can, just.. Beware the Abomination, and take it out if you can."''
* [[File:Scroll 3.png|thumb]]'''Find a scroll for Defector Jabitzu that documents the experiments.'''
** Scroll can be found in the big square room to the south in the Northwest corner, see picture.
* '''Kill the Abomination of Ro.'''__INDEX__
** May need to kill some failed experiments for him to pop.
* '''Return to Defector Jabitzu.'''
