==Newton Caverns==

|width="85%"|She has earned the title of Savior to the Gnomes.

She has earned the title of Hero to the Finks.

|width="85%"|1-21

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> A great introduction to questing, though by no means the easiest Lusternia has to offer. Pay attention to the denizens you meet - they're not all there simply for hunting. For a start point, if it seems like you should be able to help someone, you probably can. Jump in anywhere and you'll piece it together as you go.

|width="85%"|Once you reach level 21, you'll be unable to return to Newton Caverns, so start early! There are two honours quests in this area, and you'll be able to complete both if you wish. The quests are similar, but by no means identical. Before level 10, you'll have unlimited <tt>PORTALS</tt>, make use of them.

|width="85%"|Gold.

==Verasavir Valley==

|width="85%"|She assisted Kravch to bring vengeance upon the taurians of Verasavir Valley.

She helped the shaman Rynak vanquish the ghost-wolves of Verasavir Valley.

|width="85%"|30+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easiest.</span> Very simple quests which might offer an introduction to denizens which team up against you. Mostly hunting with some hidden things and hidden locations.

|width="85%"|There are two honors quests in this area, and doing either side will get you enemied to the opposing faction. For the ghost wolves, this means little, but for the taurians, it will inhibit you from doing other quests. A good time to learn about [[Influence#Amnesty | amnesty]].

|width="85%"|Gold, and the temporary disappearance of denizens from the opposing faction.

==Toronada Tidal Flats==

|width="85%"| She did aide the dragon turtles, saving a lost kin in the Toronada tidepools.

|width="85%"|22-30+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium-Easy.</span> A clear starting point, with some hunting throughout. The steps are mostly straightforward, and the quest is largely in figuring out how to complete these tasks. A good introduction to learning how to get information from denizens, both sentient and non.

|width="85%"|There are multiple quests in this area, though only one gives an honor. There are some aggressive creatures encountered during the quest, though they do not break shields. Be able to cure deafness, broken limbs, and paralysis when fighting the denizens in this area. Despite having to do with dragon turtles, this quest has no tangible impact on any organization.

|width="85%"|Gold.

==Village of Delport==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''

|width="85%"|She is the Matchmaker, having brought lovers together at the Chateau d'Amour.

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy.</span> Very straightforward with a clear start point. Requires a bit of hiking around doing village commodities quests as well as some hidden things.

|width="85%"|Delport is a village which can be under the political influence of a [[Playerorgs|player-run organization]], meaning that the org you belong to may not be welcome by whichever one currently controls Delport.  

==Village of Dairuchi==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''

|width="85%"|She is an Honourary Shepherd of the Rocks.

|width="85%"|1+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy.</span> Solving a simple maze in a world without the game map. An enjoyable puzzle in itself, you may wish to get out a paper and pencil.

|width="85%"|Dairuchi is a village which can be under the political influence of a player-run organization, meaning that the org you belong to may not be welcome by whichever one currently controls Dairuchi. To earn the honour, you'll be completing the small puzzle several times. Your progress is remembered indefinitely.

|width="85%"|Gold, increased marble production for the village.

==Village of Stewartsville==

|width="85%"|She solved the mysterious murder at Stewart Mansion.

|width="85%"|50+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy.</span> The hardest part of this quest is often considered to be getting the opportunity to begin, given its popularity. A good exercise in both finding hidden things and deductive reasoning.

|width="85%"|Like other villages, Stewartsville can be under the political influence of a player-run organization which may or may not welcome you in its borders. Though no hunting is required, the level requirement is noted a bit higher, as it is possible to encounter an aggressive denizen should your sleuthing falter. You can fight this perpetrator off, or simply run away and wait for it to leave before having another go.

|width="85%"|Gold.

==Village of Estelbar==

|width="85%"|She is an honoured Caregiver to the tae'dae cubs in Estelbar.

|width="85%"|30+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> Your choice of influence or doing commodities quests to acquire some things you need. Another mix of hidden things coupled with deductive reasoning, and perhaps a smidgen of guess work.

|width="85%"|Like other villages, Estelbar can be under the political influence of a player-run organization which may or may not welcome you in its borders, though the cause of helping these adorable sick cubs has been known to melt hard hearts.

==Village of Paavik==

|width="85%"|She did put the spirits of Paavik manor to rest.

|width="85%"|1+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> A good exercise in both hidden things and acquiring information. Timing is important. The particulars are literally written down for you.

|width="85%"|Like other villages, Paavik can be under the political influence of a player-run organization which may or may not welcome you in its borders. The story which unfolds as you work to complete this quest is macabre at its most delightful. Another quester recommends: if you find the cane, be sure to <tt>THWAP</tt> someone while holding it!

|width="85%"|Gold.

==Village of Shanthmark==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''

|width="85%"|She brought harmony of mind to the Shanthmark Lodge.

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> Hidden things, commodities quests and deductive reasoning, this one can take a bit of time to complete.  

|width="85%"|Like other villages, Shanthmark can be under the political influence of a player-run organization which may or may not welcome you in its borders. Search for crystals last, so they don't start respawning on you.

|width="85%"|Gold, notable karma.

==Villages of Rockholm and Southgard==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honor'''

|width="85%"|She is known to the dwarves as Kingmaker

|width="85%"|40+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> This is an organization-level quest. Low to higher level hunting is required throughout, coupled with wide knowledge of the prime material plane.

|width="85%"|Though low level people can certainly help with this quest, they will not be able to kill all of the various types of creatures which may be required. While the hunting parts are generally in non-enemy prime territory, it is common enough for pvp to occur during the quest.

|width="85%"|The village which hosts the king of the dwarves will also be host to all of the dwarf miners (excluding any which may be in Angkrag), essentially ending commodities production in the opposing village, and boosting production in its own.

==Arthar'rt Observatory==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''

|width="85%"|She sabotaged the experiment of Etil'ck Arthar'rt.

She aided Etil'ck Arthar'rt in his attempt to cleanse the taint.

|width="85%"|50+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> A mixture of hidden things with some time constraints, coupled with puzzling.

|width="85%"|Some influencing may be required to reach a starting point. There are no automatic enemy statuses, though Magnagora is known to not look kindly on those who are assisting Etil'ck Arthar'rt. You are able to complete both sides, if you wish. Be mindful of gravediggers in the Blasted Lands.

==Carai Caroo==

|width="85%"|She rescued the child Joiya from the machinations of Jeitara.

She did sacrifice the innocent Joiya, thus aiding Jeitara's schemes.

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> The biggest part of the quest is a sudoku style puzzle, which can be arduous both in the solving and in inputting the solution.

|width="85%"|Others have noted that finding Carai Caroo in itself is a challenge. You'll need a waterbreathe enchant if you're not a totems user. You can complete either or both sides of this quest without picking up any enemy statuses, though Celest has been known to enemy those who aid Jeitara. May require nominal planar travel.

|width="85%"|Kelpies, mutated or not, will flood the seas.

==Tosha Monastery==

|width="85%"|She passed the challenges of the Tosha Monastery.

|width="85%"|70+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> Very straightforward hunting/hand in quest. The medium designation is only in the difficulty of some of the creatures you encounter in the latter part.

|width="85%"|A very popular quest with a useful reward. You are able to do a lot of the preparation work ahead of time that you may complete it when you wish. While the first stage hunting is easy, do not underestimate the second stage. Bring a friend if you like, though make sure you are the one who gets the killing blows.

|width="85%"|Health, mana, and ego blessing.

==Hallifax and Gaudiguch==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''

|width="85%"|She used the Hand of Tzaraziko in an attempt to free Hallifax.

She used the Hand of Tzaraziko in an attempt to free Gaudiguch.

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> The quests themselves are not difficult, it's the sheer volume of them which earns this rating. This is one of those quests that will take (real) days of effort to complete, and will be interrupted by the seasons, the occasional outbreak of Nomad versus Mesa fighting, or just lately, the utter decimation of one or both of these settlements resulting from a different quest. Oh, and there's a bit of puzzling towards the end.

|width="85%"|A true test of questing dedication here. While these are known as the Hallifax and Gaudiguch quests, the bulk of the work is done in the Skarch Desert. These quests tend to be undertaken by [[Dracnari]], [[Lucidian]], and [[Trill]] players as something of a rite of passage, or by masochists of any race. Leave when it gets to motes.

|width="85%"|A full power node is created at the site of Hallifax or Gaudiguch which can be linked to or coned like an astral node, though without the monsters.

==Snow Valley==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''

|width="85%"|She did help summon the Great Cat Spirit to aid the Igasho Tribe of Hhuhur.

She has aided the Kyrian tribe in curing their children.

|width="85%"|60+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> With straightforward starting points, these quests each consist of mid to high level hunting paired with a nominal amount of information acquiring.  

|width="85%"|Either or both of these quests can be completed in this area. There is a fair degree of overlap in terms of the tasks which must be done. Requires the ability to fly and suggested use of a levitation enchantment. [[Environment#Mountaineering|Scaling]] may also be used in part. Yodeleh HE hoo.

==Aetherbubble of Xion==

|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''

|width="85%"|She has restored the ancient workshop of Xion to functionality.

|width="85%"|80+

|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> Higher level hunting coupled with multiple instances of three types of puzzle.

|width="85%"|Generally regarded as one of the most difficult quests, given the puzzles, though largely straightforward. Frequent complaints revolve around timing issues, as the puzzles can take a while to solve. Xion is sometimes a conflict area. It is fairly difficult to travel here, though transplanar contrivances have mitigated that a bit.

|width="85%"|Temporary access to one of the elemental planes from a location of your choice on prime.
