What does this information mean?

Steps Edit

1. Once you have gotten the quest you are asked to find Nhjela the Mad Poet for more information.
   • Nhjela is on the floor below ( 53, 228, -149 ) /waypoint 53, 228, -149 , the 3rd floor, and you will have needed to do the first quest she gives you, The Mad Poet , before she will answer your questions about the dragons.
   • If you want to talk to her during the same zone-run do not click on the mirror on the 4th floor as that will zone you out to The Shimmering Citadel . Instead you need to either evac or die and then run back up.
2. When hailed and at the end of the dialogue she will give you a book called The Twin Dragons .
3. Read the book by examining it.
4. Capture (speak / kill) Barakah , the Gold Dragon. Killing either Barakah (Maj'Dul) or Barakah (Pillars of Flame) will update the quest.
   • Barakah will be in her human form in Maj'Dul ( 66, 140, 113 ) /waypoint 66, 140, 113 near the Court of the Coin . This version of Barakah does not update Guild Achievement but does update the quest.
   • To get her to change to her dragon form one person need to do the subquest Scale of the Sun which is granted to you upon examining a Gold Dragon scale . It is a rare drop from the Keeper of Silence on the top floor in The Poets Palace .
   • You can also get this update by killing the contested version of Barakah that spawns in The Pillars of Flame at ( 1740, -211, -911 ) /waypoint 1740.34, -210.67, -910.76 .
5. Capture (kill) Siyamak , the Silver Dragon. Killing either Siyamak (Maj'Dul) or Siyamak (Pillars of Flame) will update the quest.
   • Siyamak, like Barakah, will be in his human form in Maj'Dul ( -248, 137, 59 ) /waypoint -248, 137, 59 near the Court of Truth . This version of Siyamak does not update Guild Achievement but does update the quest.
   • To get him to change to dragon form one person need to do the subquest Scale of the Moon which is granted to you upon examining a Silver Dragon scale , also a rare drop from the Keeper of Silence in The Poets Palace . Chance of rare dropping might increase if done on very difficult.
   • As with Barakah you can get this update by killing the contested version of Siyamak that spawns in The Pillars of Flame at ( 1740, -211, -911 ) /waypoint 1740.34, -210.67, -910.76 .
6. Return to the The Djinn Master for your reward in the form of access to The Poets Palace: Return and The Pedestal of Sky .
   • From The Pedestal of Sky you can gain further access to The Djinn Master's Prism .

6/3/13 - These steps are either slightly wrong or out of date. It is backwards from what I am currently seeing. Barakh (contested) just popped for me on Permafrost at night 10pm Norrath game time. Also the human forms are backwards from this. Barakh is human in MD during the day and Siyamak is human at night in MD. Nov. 18th 2013 - Siyamak spawned at 11am in pillars of flame...
