The Mosswarts have been driven from their homes in the Blackmire Swamps of Dereth.  A small band under the leadership of Big Chief Hagra has taken up residence in a storehouse of Hea Kassoka and he would like them removed.

Begin your quest in Ahurenga (there is a portal just NW of Bluespire) and find Hea Kassoka NE of the downed Advocate Spire.  Greet him and he will flag you to enter Hagra's Holdfast, which is located at 48.2 N, 88.5 W.  If you are above level 70 or so, buffing won't be necessary, but if you feel it necessary, protect against all damage types and buff a fire weapon.  Banes shouldn't be necessary.  You will be fighting Mosswart Clingers and Mire-Witches predominantly.  Although there isn't a map yet, you shouldn't have too much trouble navigating through the dungeon.  I hugged the left wall and made it through without incident.  The dungeon is fairly large and at at the end, you will find Big Chief Hagra.  He is a monster, but he won't attack you on sight and will talk to you if you greet him.  You have a choice - kill him and take his head to Hea Kassoka or greet him and take a treaty back to Hea Kassoka.  Either way, you will receive the Hea Bone and Hide Shirt and an XP reward.  If you kill Big Chief Hagra, you will only get 50K XP, but if you bring back a treaty, you will get 75K XP.  It all depends on how bloodthirsty you are...
