Help on 7th shawl please! I am confused

[eriadoc]

OK, I found the walkthrough for the shawl quests, and it's been most helpful. I am stuck at the moment though, and utterly confused. Excerpt from walkthrough ---

[ ] Combine in Pottery Wheel: Enchanted Velium Powder + Water = Unfired Rune (Pottery 162)
[ ] Combine in Kiln: Unfired Rune + High Quality Firing Sheet + Water = Blank Rune (Pottery 17)
[ ] Give Blank Rune to Trademaster Kroven for Prayer to Brell
[ ] Combine in Fletching Kit: Swordfish Tooth + Ulthork Tusk + Molkor Hide = Burin (Fletching 122-135)
[ ] Combine in Fletching Kit: Etched Rune Pattern + Burin + Blank Rune = Etched Rune (Fletching 168 ) (also returns burin on success or failure)

Nowhere in the walkthrough, or the spoiler, does it say anything about an Etched Rune Pattern until it says to combine it. Well, I don't have an Etched Rune Pattern, so I very well cannot make an Etched Rune, I guess. The text that Trademaster Kroeven gives differs slightly from the walkthrough as well --

[Give Trademaster Kroven: Blank Rune]
Trademaster Kroven says, "Fine piece of work there, Verdandi, especially fer an outlander. Now yer gunna need to make a burin to etch the rune with. Once that's done ye need to kneel in the chapel and recite this prayer with total sincerity in yer heart. If yer plea be heard by our Father Brell he’ll bless ya with the knowledge necessary to carry on. With that knowledge you'll take the blank rune, the burin and a fletching kit to etch the rune. Show Grimthor the etched rune and he’ll guide you from there."
[Receive: Prayer to Brell & Blank Rune]
You say, "What burin?"
Trademaster Kroven says, "You’ll need a fletching kit and a fair bit of skill for this one, Verdandi. Round up a tooth from a swordfish and attach it to an Ulthork tusk wrapped in a Molkor hide."

He says to just combine the burin and the blank rune, which doesn't work either. So far I have tried Blank rune with Burin, with ands without the prayer to brell, with and without the pattern that Betti gives you in the beginning, and even just the rune in the fletching kit. I am stumped. I am sure it's something simple I'm over looking, as thousands have done this before me, but I don't see what yet. Please help! Thanks in advance :-)

OK, a friend of mine enlightened me to the fact that the prayer to Brell is actually a prayer that you have to recite, rather than just a piece of paper like so many other quests hand out. The wrote-up wasn't totally clear on this, but I stood at the left set of stairs and recited the prayer, and the pattern appeared on the ground in front of the stage. :-)

Hi there,

You need to read the walkthrough better it is all there and very straight forward The following is qouted from the walkthrough.


"Etched Rune Pattern or How do I use this infernal Prayer to Brell?? First, go to the Temple of Lore and stand facing the stage. See how there are steps on either side of the stage that lead up to it? Go stand in the area to the left of the stage at the base of the steps on that side. Then recite the prayer that Trademaster Kroven gave to you. Make sure you are saying it in /say and without any misspellings and that you do not have anyone targeted. Don't put it into a hotkey on the five different lines, it must be typed out all in one big long shot. You will get the message "You have been inspired!" and the pattern will appear on the ground in front of the stage...NOT at your feet . There are reports that it is on a timer, so it is possible that you might do everything right and still not get inspired if someone has done it within 45 minutes or so. Try coming back later. Note also that there seems to be a problem getting the pattern to appear if the Grand Historian Thoridain is not in his usual spot on the stage. If he is out of place you may need to petition for him to be escorted back before Brell will see fit to provide you with the pattern. For reference, since you can't read the prayer scroll and type it at the same time, the prayer is:
"Oh Brell, Thank you for protecting me and seeing me through my trials. Forgive me for the things I think and say and do that displease you. Please reveal to me your will and bless me with the patience and obedience to do that which you desire. Amen." "

Doing that gives you your etched rune pattern
And

The recipe for the etched rune as stated in the guide is.

Combine in Fletching Kit: Etched Rune Pattern + Burin + Blank Rune = Etched Rune (Fletching 168) (also returns burin on success or failure

Just need to point out that checklist that I made is only to keep track of things - always ALWAYS refer to Verdandi's walkthroughs. I need to fix a section in the checklist on the 8th one and you really need to follow Verdandi's walkthroughs for important details.

Hmmm ....

I found it! Thanks all for the great help, and thanks DenMom for the great site :-)

Froni - speaking of which, my apologies for not getting that up on the site. Real life kicked into high gear and I forgot all about it. It's back on my list of things to do though, so hopefully within the next week or two I can tackle this and some other updates
