You have to climb up the wall to get to them. Locations are marked on EQ2 map, and is most often confirmed in Residence Court.A chalice of Akhet Aken: Spawns in random locations throughout The Living Tombs (confirmed at ( -451, 23, 344 ) /waypoint -451, 23, 344 ).

Notes Edit

• The locations for the pillow, the mat, the eggs, and the chalice harvest in this quest are RANDOM spawns. Because the locations are random, the talk page lists the locations where people have found some of the items. Only the general area locations are listed in the quest details below. Exact locations where other players have found these items are specified on the talk page .
  • These items can be tracked using a Gnomish Divining Rod .
