'It looks like my sister Pansy wasn't too far wrong, after all! We've got Golfimbul's head in that cave.

'You've got to go into the cave down at the bottom of the quarry and recover that skull. My lads mentioned that a strange mist covered the floor of the room where they found the skull. I won't blame you if you bring friends with you! In fact, I encourage you to do so! The spiders have really made themselves at home in the quarry, and who knows what other evils Golfimbul's head might stir up down there?

'Bring it up here so we can have a look at it, and maybe we can figureout what's going on.'

Background

As if the presence of goblins north of Brockenborings is not enough, workers at the quarry in Scary, including the once doubtful Wilcome Tunnelly, believe they have unearthed Golfimbul's head in the cave there.

Objectives

Objective 1

  • Acquire the skull
  • The skull is in a cave at the bottom of the quarry.

    Workers in the quarry at Scary uncovered a skull in the cave there, and many believe it could be the reason that spiders have overrun the quarry. Wilcome Tunnelly has asked you to bring the skull up to the surface so he can have a look at it.

    Objective 2
  • Bring the skull to Wilcome Tunnelly
  • Wilcome Tunnelly is in Scary, at the edge of the quarry.

    Wilcome Tunnelly is waiting for you to return with the skull his workers uncovered in the quarry at Scary.

    Objective 3
  • Bring Golfimbu's skull to Brombard Foxtail
  • Brombard Foxtail is the keeper of the Mathom-house at Michel Delving, far to the south-west of Scary.

    You recovered the skull from the quarry cave, but Wilcome Tunnelly thinks it will be safest for all if it is kept in the same place as the famed club of Brandobras "Bullroarer" Took. Wilcome has asked you to take the skull to Brombard Foxtail.

    Notes

    The skull is located at the very end of the Scary Quarry, down the right-hand branch. It is in the last room, with a queen. There are a lot of spiders, so if you are doing this quest solo, make sure a group goes ahead of you to clear, or be very sneaky. You will have to fight, even if using stealth, at some point, but once you make your first kills and clear a spot, moving forward is fairly easy and easily soloable. Just keep moving as respawns are quick.
