Walkthrough

This quest can be completed concurrently with The Dragon's Way.

Slane is held captive on Dragon's Beach, located on the eastern shoreline of Reaper's Eye. After destroying the two totems chaining him to the island, Slane reveals he is searching for Radeka's Purging Wand, which was used by Radeka the Witch to steal his Source and capture him. To retrieve the wand, Radeka can be found in a skull cavern near the Dragon's Beach waypoint at   X: 582  Y: 103  .

In the cavern, Radeka is harvesting blood roses. The Purging Wand can be obtained by pickpocketing her or defeating her in combat. If combat ensues, Radeka summons several beetles and Undead to surround the party.

After retrieving Radeka's Purging Wand, the party can offer the item to Slane (+2,100 XP) or refuse to part with it, in which case Slane becomes hostile and initiates combat. In the latter option, defeating Slane grants +6,000 XP and the party retain Radeka's Purging Wand.

To maximize XP (at the expense of the wand), one party member can begin a conversation with Slane. Upon starting the conversation, do not progress the dialogue. Switch to a different party member and attack Slane three times while Slane is still in conversation. Afterwards, switch back to the first party member who is interacting with Slane, and advance the dialogue to offer Radeka's Purging Wand. The party gain +2,100 XP for delivering the wand; however once the conversation ends, Slane is hostile and combat immediately ensues. Defeating Slane grants an additional +6,000 XP but Radeka's Purging Wand is lost.

Alternatively, the party can allow Slane to continue living his life after this quest, in which case he defeats the Shriekers barring passage off the island.
