Exterminate the Margonites that feast on the souls of the departed.

Quest information[edit]

Just follow the markers and kill the Margonite groups. Some groups might be killed for you by the roaming Djinns and Awakened.

Jehner: "One would think that in death, all of life's problems would be solved...Well, at least we don't have to pay taxes.; We have decided to band together and eliminate the soul-devouring Margonite threat once and for all. We're headed for the Poisoned Outcrops to root them out. Will you join us?"

Accept: "The only good Margonite is a dead Margonite."

Decline: "Can't you ghosts do anything on your own?"

Ask: "Meet us in the Poisoned Outcrops and we'll teach those Margonites a lesson."

Jehner: "Let's get moving; those Margonites aren't going to just give up without a fight."

Jehner: "Here, take this. I found it on the bodies of one of those foul monsters we killed. Maybe you can pay your taxes with it? Ha ha ha!"

Jehner and several Freed Souls will join you as allies on this quest. Although quest completion does not require their survival, if you keep Jehner alive, you can avoid the need to return to The Ruptured Heart to claim the reward.
The Margonite Souleaters are hostile to both normal Margonites and the Awakened.
As the Souleaters spawn when you zone into the instance, it is possible to start from Lair of the Forgotten and backtrack to kill the groups without talking to Jehner, effectively making the quest shorter as you don't need to walk from the quest start location to Poisoned Outcrops as well as guaranteeing his survival making claiming the reward easier.
