Hunting Bugs! is a quest given to you by Sheryl in the Northern Bluemist River settlement.

Quest Overview

A settlement struggling to establish itself has recently been plagued by Mirmeks, giant ant-like creatures. Something in the area must be causing it, and Sheryl wants you to handle the situation.

Quest Steps

  1. Speak with Sheryl
  2. Locate the nest northeast of settlement surrounded by trees
  3. Smash the nest twice, dealing with the Mirmeks that appear
  4. Return to Sheryl
  5. (Optional) Speak with Nisor

Detailed Walkthrough

In the southwest corner of the Northern Bluemist River, you will find a small settlement. Sheryl, the leader of the community is located near a house in the center. She will mention that the hardships of the settlement will be worthwhile when they are able to produce gains from the gold in the river and the rubies in the cave to the north. While they can handle the goblins, a recently increased Mirmek population has become quite dangerous. If someone could find a way to stymie its growth, they would be rewarded with 200 gold.

Head out of the settlement using the northern bridge. Follow the water east until you are blocked by trees. Head along the trees until you reach a gap, leading into an enclosed area. Inside you will find three Mirmeks, as well as the cause of the recent problems, a Mirmek Egg Nest. Inspecting the nest, you will be able to smash it with your weapon. Doing so will cause three Mirmeks to pop out. Dispatch them and then reinspect the nest. Smash it again to fully destroy it, but once more, three Mirmeks will appear.

With the nest destroyed, you may head back to Sheryl to tell her the news. She is shocked to learn of a nest that was built outside, and rewards you 200 gold as promised. She mentions you may want to tell their ranger, Nisor about the strange occurrence. He has never seen or heard anything like it, but has heard of a rumor of similar strange behavior in other beasts near [[Rhoneis. He thinks a pack of Varannari might be responsible. This starts the quest A Wild Mystery.

Notes

  • After smashing the nest for the first time, Mirmeks will continually pour out. Destroying the nest fully will take care of this.
