Level 33 - Muniels Tea Garden Side Quest:

Zone:   Muniels Tea Garden
Quest:  NPC Teamaster Yismay

Teamaster Yismay tells you that it's a terrible day for a tea party because his bun'dal tea is not selling, and he fears that he will be demoted. Killian Helmes has stopped coming for tea parties, and he was responsible for bringing many large groups. Yismay begs you to seek him out and find out why he's stopped coming to MTG. Killian is in the Twin Tails Inn in Blackwater.

Killian tells you that since Yismay lost Tobal, the tea is just not the same. Tobal was Yismay's assistant and the one with the recipe, but he was killed while making a supply run. When first captured, Tobal was taken to Widow's Peak and cast into a zombie. It's possible that the undead Tobal still has the recipe; if so, Killian will return to MTG. Tobal is at the Zintek zombie lair in Widow's Peak, which is west-southwest from Blackwater. The area is overspawned and red, so take someone who can cast invisibility.

When you give the recipe to Yismay, he realizes that he needs some special ingredients. To this end, he sends you to Captain Ogofa, who is in a camp north of Muniel's. Follow the road west out of town, and it will soon turn north and end at the camp (in Northern Ro zone). CPT Ogofa sends you to Captain Skorn (one tent over) who sells you the tinsy tea leaves for 1625 tunar. For the brackish rocks, he tells you that the Deathfist Riders often have these to keep warm at night. The Riders are in the Deathfist Citadel zone, just north of the Citadel itself. There are many Riders in a small area, so beware of additional mobs joining the attack.

Yismay notices that he needs an antique teapot from the Rowen'Dal. He mentions that Niktuu in the Tomb of Kings would have one of these, and asks you to talk to him. The journey to the Tomb of Kings is uneventful, but once inside, you will need a strong party. Most of the guards and entrance-area skeletons are light blue to level 33, but Niktuu is deeper in the tomb and is level 34. The undead like to swarm, so you will find yourself constantly battling. Niktuu has been converted to undead, and upon slaying him, he will drop one tea set for each member of the group. Yismay is delighted when you return, and he rewards you with 2,679,818 experience, a pair of gloves, and a new ability.
