Note: You cannot perform this quest until and unless you have first completed the Verity Librarian Quest.

The Trials of Humility

The Questions

First Gareth will ask you a number of questions. He asks them in random order. If you pick a wrong answer you have to wait one day before you can try again.

• Q: Which city embodies the need for Humility? A: Magincia

• Q: How doth one find Humility? A: Through the absence of Virtue.

• Q: Finish this truism: "Humility shows us..." A: ..the value of all individuals.

• Q: By name, which den of evil challenges one's humility? A: Hythloth

• Q: What is the color of Humility? A: Black

• Q: What opposes Humility? A: Pride

• Q: What is the symbol of humility? A: The shepards crook

The Donations

When you have answered the questions correctly Gareth 3 times send you to donate to the community collections:

• One is to go to the Vesper Museum and receive the Crook Reward.

• Another is to go to the Moonglow Zoo and receive the Body Sash Reward.

• The other is the Britain Library and receive the Book reward. Your character will have to be a Friend of the Library to do this donation and the Library Talisman is**not** transferable between characters even on the same account.

You will need to take each one to him, with them marked as a Quest Item.

(I cannot recall off hand which order they are in, however, your Quest Log will be very clear on where to go and what Reward to choose.)

The Errands

Finally, Gareth will require you to go find Seven people scattered throughout Britannia, both in Felucca and in Trammel.

Each NPC can be found in one of the 7 cities below:

• Britain, Trammel - Maribel the Waitress
• Britain, Felucca - Deirdre the Beggar
• Minoc, Trammel - Kevin the Butcher
• Minoc, Felucca - Sean the Blacksmith
• Skara Brae, Trammel - Jason the Healer
• Skara Brae, Felucca - Walton the Horse Trainer
• Haven, Trammel (island) - Nelson the Shepherd

Each NPC travels around the city they are in, so there is no point in jotting down their exact location. They changed locations 3 times on me while doing this quest twice.

Each NPC will require an Item, which item they require and which they give you is random per player. One of the NPCs will want the Ring you are initially given and then give you an item in return that another one of the NPCs want, and so on. Make sure to wear the grey cloak you are given, as the NPCs will talk to you when you get near to them ONLY if you are wearing the blessed grey cloak.

When you complete this part, you will receive an Iron Chain from the last NPC and be told to give it to Gareth. Mark it as a quest item then return to Gareth.

The Final Test

When you give the iron chain to Gareth he will offer you a reward. If you Accept Gareth's reward, you will be given a yellow-gold hued Order Shield that is nothing more than an item for looks. However, If you Refuse the reward, he will then tell you to go to the Humility Shrine!

Take the grey cloak he gave you to the Humility Shrine and walk inside the ring, when you do, your grey cloak will turn into a Virtue Armor Set piece (The Cape of Humility) Cape of humility is part of the Virtues armor set, is blessed and gives +1% to all resists if set is completed. Note: Cloak is NOT blessed on Siege Perilous. If you want to keep a blessed cloak, simply do not go to humilty shrine at end of the chain and it will remain a blessed "grey cloak"
