Saga of the Sword Muse

Saga of the Sword Muse is a one-time, solo quest in Lineage 2 BoHPTS for characters of level 76+. It starts with Raien in Town of Aden.

Oh, singer of the sword. Who taught you and who are you singing for?

Saga of the Sword Muse walkthrough

The quest for the third profession, Saga of the Sword Muse (Succession to the Legend Sword Muse): Swordsinger becomes Sword Muse.

Allies and the first amulet

  1. Town of Aden. Find Master Raien in the Warriors Guild and take the quest.

    The quest Saga of Sword Muse (Succession to the Legend Sword Muse), the third profession for the sword singers, is taken on reaching level 76 in Aden from the NPC Master Raien (stands in the warriors guild).

  2. Town of Goddard. Find Blacksmith Feynn in the smithy.

    From him we run to the smithy of Goddard (it is in the temple, on the left) and look there for the NPC Blacksmith Feynn.

  3. Hot Springs (teleport from Town of Goddard). Talk to Master Chef Donath.

    Now we have to visit the location Hot Springs, where on the central glade stands the NPC Master Chef Donath, who needs the Ice Crystal. The sly ones have already done the quest The Finest Ingredients by this moment, and the crystal is in your quest inventory. If so, we talk to Donath again; if not, we go to get the crystal. Although no, we do not talk, because this is one of the third-profession quests where a fish is needed. For the SWS the fish Big White Fat Fish is needed; the fish is usually sold in Giran, and if you want to catch it yourself, you need to know that the white fish is caught at the 22nd level of fishing.

  4. Talk to Master Chef Donath again. You receive: Bitter Cold Beer.

  5. Town of Goddard. Return to Blacksmith Feynn in the smithy. You receive: Resonance Amulet - 1.

    In the end we exchange the Ice Crystal and the fish for some thingy and return to Feynn in Goddard. He gives the first resonance amulet, which has to be carried to the first tablet.

First three tablets

  1. Plains of Glory. Talk to Tablet of Vision.

    The first tablet is the same for all classes, and it stands between Oren and Aden, not far from the Tower of Insolence. So we teleport to the Tower of Insolence and, without entering the tower, run towards the tablet (I usually leave a cat by this tablet so as not to run far).

  2. Monastery of Silence (teleport from Town of Goddard). Hunt Guardian of Forbidden Knowledge (lv. 76) until you have: Resonance Amulet - 2.

    We activate the tablet and learn that the second resonance amulet and the second tablet are in the Valley of Saints, and the amulet itself has to be knocked out of the angels that circle round the tablet in great numbers. The amulet drops from the last angel (that is the rule on PTS servers; on Java ones it drops from the 4th mob). You may be in a party while doing it, and you may be healed. In general all the professions are sent to the Valley of Saints, but there are several tablets and groups of angels there; which of them you need is shown on the map. The angels stand below, in deep pits. The sword singers have to run to the left from the teleport point, a little way through the mobs; it is not long, check by the map. We beat all the mobs Guardian of Forbidden Knowledge; the resonance amulet drops from the last one.

  3. Valley of Saints (teleport from Rune Township). Talk to Tablet of Vision.

    We talk to the second tablet, and it tells us that at the third tablet a monster awaits you; by defeating it you get the next amulet. The third tablet of the sword singers is far beyond Ketra, where the map says "Pilgrim's Temple". You will have to teleport to Ketra and run round all of it on the right, bypassing the mobs, and then a long way across the field. Everything is seen on the map.

  4. Pilgrim's Temple. Talk to Tablet of Vision.

  5. Kill Sword Player Biel (lv. 76) to get: Resonance Amulet - 3.

    A quest mob climbs out of the third tablet, and it has to be beaten. When you took the profession quest, a little book dropped into your inventory; if you click on it, it opens, and in it is written how to defeat this mob. For the sword singers it says there that the mob will hang debuffs on you, which you have to remove by casting your songs instead of them, namely Song of Water, Song of Wind and Song of Vengeance. Heaven knows how it is implemented where: somewhere I saw the mob spamming debuffs constantly, while on the last server it did nothing at all, and I simply kicked it to death. Most likely it depends on the build. The mob is called Sword Player Biel.

  6. Return to Tablet of Vision.

    The next amulet drops from the mob, we activate the tablet, and an entry appears in the quest that we have to go to the wild beast farm to the NPC Beast Herder Tunatun. Why such an honour fell to the sword singers I have no idea; usually nobody is sent here. The NPC stands next to the water tower, which is seen from everywhere there.

Divine Stone and the fourth tablet

  1. Wild Beast Reserve (teleport from Rune Township). Talk to Beast Herder Tunatun.

    He needs the Divine Stone of Wisdom. If you did the quests in Varka or Ketra beforehand, the little stone is already with you; if not, you will have to go and do them: first get the second level of the alliance with Ketra or Varka (Alliance with Ketra Orcs or Alliance with Varka Silenos), and then, depending on whether you chose the alliance with the orcs or with the goats (oh, oh, not goats but FAUNS), the quest for the Divine Stone of Wisdom: Magical Power of Fire or Magical Power of Water. In short, in the end you must have the Divine Stone of Wisdom in your inventory (the ordinary one). Tunatun asks where you will go to get the little stone, to Ketra or to Varka; you can choose any answer, it decides nothing: the main thing is that you do the quests and bring the stone, and where exactly from makes no difference to him.

  2. Talk to Beast Herder Tunatun again. You receive: Resonance Amulet - 4.

    In any case, having got the stone, we give it to the NPC, and in return he gives the fourth amulet. So we have to run to the fourth tablet. It is one for all classes and is next to Ketra; there are no mobs on the way, so we teleport to the entrance of Ketra, get on the path and run along the road to the left, if you stand facing the location.

  3. Garden of Beasts. Talk to Tablet of Vision.

Halisha's minions and the last tablets

  1. Town of Goddard. Find Priest Cerenas in the temple.

    After the dialogue with the fourth tablet we go to the NPC Priest Cerenas, who is in the temple of Goddard; the next task is to beat 700 mobs in the location Shrine of Loyalty, and out of the 701st a quest mob jumps and gives up the amulet. Well, if we do not want to beat so many mobs, he agrees to an alternative, for which the Four Sepulchers have to be passed. Which way you choose depends only on you; I usually beat the mobs.

  2. Shrine of Loyalty. Hunt Grave Scarab (lv. 73), Scavenger Scarab (lv. 73), Grave Ant (lv. 74), Scavenger Ant (lv. 74), Shrine Knight (lv. 75), Shrine Guard (lv. 75) until you have: Halisha's Mark ×700.

    We set off for the Shrine of Loyalty and collect 700 items Halisha's Mark; out of the 701st the Archon of Halisha climbs. The mob is sluggish and drops the next amulet.

  3. Kill Archon of Halisha (lv. 76) to get: Resonance Amulet - 5.

  4. Borderland Fortress. Talk to Tablet of Vision.

    Having got the amulet, we set out for the fifth tablet. It is the same for all classes and is right here, in the Wall of Argos, only it is handier to reach it by returning to Goddard and teleporting to the entrance of the location again. From the teleport point we turn left, run past two glades with deer and run onto a big glade on the left (also with deer). At the far end stands the fifth tablet.

  5. Hunters Village. Talk to Tablet of Vision.

    The fifth tablet tells you that it remains to get the last, sixth resonance amulet, which is next to the last tablet not far from Hunters Village; there is no need to teleport anywhere: we simply run out of Hunters Village, run along the path, across the little bridge, and then a little more along the path to the tablet. We talk to the tablet, and nearby appear the NPC Moon Voice Irene and the mob Fallen Angel Narcissus. The mob is huge. Naturally, we beat the quest mob. You will not kill it, but soon it disappears, shouting something about a speedy revenge on you for meddling in what is not your business.

  6. Talk to Tablet of Vision again.

  7. Town of Aden. Return to Master Raien in the Warriors Guild to complete the quest.

    We talk to Moon Voice Irene, and she hands over the last amulet. We activate the tablet and return to Aden to Raien. We get the profession Sword Muse, some adena (from 5kk to 50kk, depending on the rates) and the book Secret Book of Giants.

Tips

  • Collect Ice Crystal and Divine Stone of Wisdom before you start: both come from side quests, and with them in the bag the saga is one continuous trip.
  • The marks are counted per character, but monsters of the Shrine of Loyalty die much faster in a party, and several players can collect at the same time.
  • Ice Crystal is the reward of the repeatable quest The Finest Ingredients - Part 1, which Jeremy gives at the Hot Springs.
  • Big White Fat Fish is a fishing catch; the quest journal says it takes a fisherman with a Fishing skill of level 23–25. The fish can be traded, so you can also buy it from another player.
