Fiun Lunnum's plight only gets worse as time goes on.  Not only was she, the last hope of the Fiun, murdered by her own mate, but some nefarious force has stolen her body from the memorial pyre burning in her honor.  Fiun Gaya, her mate, murderer, and caretaker, wants you to recover the body or at claim vengeance in his name.

Step 1:  Preparation.  First and foremost, you must have stoked Lunnum's pyre for Fiun Gaya recently.  How recently isn't entirely clear, but simply having done the quest at some point doesn't seem to be sufficient.  If you haven't done the quest recently, Fiun Gaya will simply ask you to get an ice log for him. 

Step 2:  Tracking the Thief.  Once you are properly flagged, Fiun Gaya will tell you his sad tale of woe.  Head to Fiun Lunnum's Pyre, located on the Isle of Ruin (where Eastwatch is located) at 89.1N 47.6W.  You will need to do a good bit of running through some rather nasty monster spawns, so buff up!  You will want a fire weapon for later.  Don't forget to put up all your protects and banes.  He will tell you a thief made off with Lunnum's body during the night, but he did catch a glimse of the thief, who evidently escaped to the north.  Head north and you will come across the thief's encampment at 90.4N 47.6W.  Have a look around and you will find a Ruschk Totem on the ground.  Grab it.  Now head to Vanguard Isle to the west and make your way to the Ruschk settlement at 83.2N 54.6W.  You will probably have to kill a good number of Ruschk to get through to the Warlord NPC in the center of the camp.  Once you do, hand him the totem and he will hand you a scrap of paper.  The paper lists several strange items and bears the name of the Al Jalima mask maker, Janda Sulifiya.  Head to Al Jalima to investigate this lead (there is a portal in Arwic).  Hand her the list and she will tell you that a Viamontian man asked her to make a full-body Ruschk disguise.  She will give you a sketch of the man for you to circulate.  Several people will react to the note, but the only one who you will really need to show the sketch to is Fabian Strinjelli of Sanamar.  He will tell you the man's name (Andrilos) and where he lives (the northern woods of Lotila Isle, where Westwatch is located).

Step 3:  Thrungal Den.  Head to Westwatch and then run to 79.4N 71.6W.  Here you will find a portal to Andrilos's lair.  The dungeon is filled with fairly nasty Thrugi, so watch your health.  Hugging the right wall should be sufficient to get you through the dungeon in short order, but be careful not to rush headlong into the bigger rooms.  At the very end, you will find Andrilos's room.  Hand him the sketch if you like, but he won't talk.  You have no choice but to kill him!  Check his corpse and you will find a worn medallion bearing the inscription 'Hero of S...'.  Leave once you have your medallion.

Step 4:  Rewards.  If you like, you can try to get some more answers about the medallion.  If you show it to the Grand Knight of Sanamar or the Grandmother of Silyun, they will both say they know nothing about it (although I think the Grandmother's response is a bit more suspect).  Ultimately, you will need to take the medallion to Fiun Gaya.  He will give you a percentage XP reward, capping out at about 18M XP.  The quest leaves a lot of loose ends and makes me think there might be more added in the coming months.
