When you check someone's <tt>HONOURS</tt>, you'll often see a line at the end directing you to <tt>HONOURS FULL (person)</tt> and it's here where you may view all of the honours quests they have completed. As noted above, these range broadly in both difficulty and time to complete.

Honour quests may be done for a variety of reasons. Some yield rewards to help an organization or to hinder an opposing one. Some may be considered rites of passage for a certain characters. Many yield historical context in the game world, bits of information or secrets about the world of Lusternia that are available nowhere else. Most grant gold and karma rewards with some giving other personal blessings.

Each [[Playerorgs| organization]] has a prophecy quest associated with it, and a series of honours associated with the completion, leading up to an [[Epic_Quests|epic quest]]. Prophecy quests generally yield standard rhetoric associated with a given org. During times when that org or the Basin at large is in peril, they can be performed to glean valuable information about world-scale events. In addition to the organization quests, there are a couple of neutral-territory prophecy quests, which are not associated with epic quests.

==Arysian Isles==
=[[Epic Quests]]=
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
An [[Epic_Quests|epic quest]] is comprised of a series of honour quests associated with one overriding theme. At present, there are only four epic quests available, one for each of the four player organizations. These quest arcs become available after an individual has completed an org-specific honour quest five times. Usually, this will be the organization's prophecy quest, but similar quests such as resurrecting an organization's nexus shield object, also count towards the five.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
Each time a character completes the org-specific quest, he or she will receive a new consecutive honour associated with his or her organization. Upon completing the epic quest series, these five cumulative lines are removed and replaced by one line, designating completion of the epic quest.
|width="85%"|She freed the gorgogs from their dimensional prison.
She helped seal the gorgogs behind the dimensional barriers.
In addition to earning the rare honour, the reward for completing the epic quest is an artifact which provides transport to a location in limbo from which there are several exits to various locations within that organization's territories. It can only be used by its rightful owner, though others may follow.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
These rewards are intricately tied to the organizations. Should someone leave that org after having completed its epic quest, they will be stripped of the honour as well as the artifact.
|width="85%"|70+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium-Hard.</span> Expect to be repeatedly disrupted in this very popular hunting ground. Some middle to higher level hunting, with a lot of 'figuring out.'
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Vague directions are not really informative. Proceed on the assumption that the various side-quests in the area must be linked. Start point is clearer on the sealing the gorgogs side. The end result of freeing the gorgogs makes life difficult for city novices.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold, releasing aggressive gorgogs throughout the seas.

==Bubble of Bottledowns==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"| She rallied the Figurine Army and assisted in the invasion of the Facility.
She assisted the artisans of Bottledowns Village in stopping the Figurine Army.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|80+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> Straightforward but very long. Higher level hunting and influencing, hidden things, a shorter puzzle. Requires flying and aethership travel.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Handing in items takes a painfully long time, but at least they update you (and at length) about your progress on the collection parts. There are two sides to this quest, and the toy army must be raised before they can be defeated. Definitely more enjoyable as a two-person venture, though not required.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"|Gold.
|}
 
 
==Cankermore Battlegrounds==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She marshaled the undead legions to victory, displacing the mold battalions.
She did lead the festering molds to overthrow the undead invaders of Cankermore.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|60+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> Clear starting points, some mid to higher level hunting coupled with a short strategy game.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|You can complete one side of this, or the other. Doing the second cancels out the first. A bit of interesting history is available upon completion. You'll need to win several battles before being awarded the honour, and your progress is saved indefinitely. The AI improves slightly with each successful victory, making it more challenging as you progress.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.
|}
 
 
==Carai Caroo==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
|width="85%"|She rescued the child Joiya from the machinations of Jeitara.
She did sacrifice the innocent Joiya, thus aiding Jeitara's schemes.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|30+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|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.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|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.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"|Kelpies, mutated or not, will flood the seas.
|}
 
 
==Caverns of the Hyfae==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She did aid Wise Lamella, and brought peace to the Hyfae of Tryko.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|65+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> Mid to higher level hunting and influencing coupled with puzzling.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|A neat little quest with a lot of good history available upon completion. There are some aggressive creatures in Tryko, though you're not required to kill them. A good bit of trekking through the tunnels of the undervault.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Health, mana, ego blessing
|}
 
 
==Clarramore Cloud Gardens==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"| She is an honorary staff member of staff at the Clarramore Cloud Gardens.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|60+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> Some influence and hidden things, a fair bit of 'figuring out'.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|The most frustrating part of this quest may be in how quickly some denizens forget that you've given them things, so as a very helpful hint: hand in all the perfume components at once, rather than as you acquire them. A neat area to explore, particularly for [[trill]] players.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.
|}
 
 
==Dramube Triangle==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She holds the position of Planar Trader at the Facility in the Aetherways.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|60+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> Requiring mid to high level hunting, rudimentary math skills, and aetherflight.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|While possible to complete alone, bring a friend. Digging and flying are necessary, as well as a fair amount of aetherflying. Will require multiple times completing the same puzzle and this progress is saved indefinitely. Don't over think it, math geeks.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Above average gold.
|}
 
 
==Duum==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
|width="85%"| She resurrected the Soulforge to reign terror upon the world once again.
She destroyed the Soulforge, ending its reign of terror.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|90+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> An org-level quest with lots of high-level hunting, a bit of puzzling and figuring out.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Resurrecting the Soulforge will require summoning and killing a supermob. The second line can only be gotten after the first is completed. It's rumoured that if the Soulforge stays up for a very long time there are a myriad of global effects which begin to occur... but don't expect it to last this long. While one or two people can definitely do a lot of it on their own, you will need more help at some points.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"|Power for your organization's nexus at the expense of the cities'.
|}
 
 
==Facility==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She aided the gnomes of the Facility in a mysterious endeavor.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|50+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium-Hard.</span> The quest is not really difficult to initiate nor work on, largely hunting with a tiny measure of hidden things. It is extremely time-consuming with a seemingly inexplicable failure component.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Progess on this quest is saved indefinitely, though saved by the quest, not by the person, so it's entirely possible to pick up where someone else left off. A good opportunity to share information about gnomes in general was missed here - the honour line more or less says it all.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.
|}
 
 
==Grey Moors==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
|width="85%"|She released the horrors of Castle Djarrakh onto an unsuspecting world.
She aided Ciarrus in sealing Castle Djarrakh for all time.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|40+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> You're essentially given the end-goal and very little further direction in what is a fairly extensive series of subquests. A bit of low to mid level hunting. No puzzles, but fairly extensive amounts of 'figuring out'.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"| The horrors of Castle Djarrakh are disappointingly non-horrible, but these must be released before Ciarrus may be aided. Neither quest resets until it is completed, so it's common enough to encounter it partially done. There's another, unrelated, non-honour quest in the area you're bound to encounter as you poke and prod every nook and cranny of the Moors.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.

==Hallifax and Gaudiguch==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|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.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|30+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|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.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|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.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|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.

==Hifarae Hills==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
|width="85%"|She did lower the veil over the Hifarae hills and release Gromagh's horde.
She did aid the centaurs of the Hifarae hills drive out Gromagh's horde.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|50+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> Fairly straightforward, with a small bit of hunting coupled with hidden things and a simple puzzle.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Not the easiest quest, but a decent introductory venture. Releasing the horde creates lower level aggressive creatures in the near vicinity, the counter vanquishes them. Clear starting points and clear instructions.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold throughout, releasing or banishing the horde.
|}
 
 
==Kiakodan Nature Reserve==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She brought balance to the Kiakodan Reserve, preserving it for future generations.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|30+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> Low level hunting, some hidden things, a lot of 'figuring out'.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|There are four sub-quests to the larger quest, and your progress is kept indefinitely. Several unique mechanics to be found here. Requires swimming. Climbing is helpful. Some truly memorable denizens in this area. A lot of dialog-based solving. Slight chance of death.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.
|}
 
 
==Kryden Valik==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honours'''
|width="85%"|She summoned a shadow of the Soulless God Crazen to possess the priestess Kiska.
She has freed the maiden Feyahi from the prison of the Kryden Valik.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|65+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: red;">Difficult.</span> Though straightforward in execution, these quests are mixtures of mid to high level hunting and influencing, coupled with some puzzles and require very fine timing in places.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|The two quests in this area can both be completed, despite the clear "good" and "bad" alignments. Assisting Feyahi requires visiting a different, high-traffic area so some patience may be required if the denizens you need to speak with have been killed. The Kiska side results in an encounter with a very strong, aggressive denizen.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"|Gold, exploration.

==Manifestation of Mother Moon==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She assisted the Priestess Ysun in venerating the essence of Moon.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|50+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: lightgreen;">Easy-Medium.</span> Straight forward, a bit of observational skill and a smattering of influence and hunting required and one arduous puzzle.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Lower level people may need someone to help with the influencing bit, it's a very small portion. Not exactly an org-specific quest, but usually only done by those of Serenwilde. Use caution, successive mistakes become increasingly painful. Nearly a mirror image to the quest on the Night Bubble.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"|Gold, and a temporary portal is created near the Faethorn archway in the Ethereal forest.

==Manifestation of Mother Night==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"| She aided Mother Night's descent onto the Throne of Darkness.

|width="85%"|50+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''

|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|Lower level people may need someone to help with the influencing bit, it's a very small portion. Not exactly an org-specific quest, but usually only done by those of Glomdoring. Use caution, successive mistakes become increasingly painful. Nearly a mirror image to the quest on the Moon Bubble.
|-valign="top"

==Mount Zoaka==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She hatched a dragon egg at Mount Zoaka, birthing a magnificent wyrmling.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|40+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium-Hard.</span> A little bit of lower level hunting, a lot of timed puzzling. Some higher planar travel.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"|A [[Dracnari]] favorite. There are many parts to the quest, but it's easy enough to accomplish on one's own. Clear steps to completion. A very neat area to explore.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold, exploration.
|}
 
 
==Mucklemarsh==
{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She procured new hosts for the slivven parasites.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|80+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium-Hard.</span> Doing this one with a friend is a good idea. The quest is more arduous than brain-wracking, with high-level bashing and a lot of aetherflying. Unfortunately, a certain combination of artifacts can bring the difficulty level way down.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"| Straightforward, if high-level, fetch and deliver quest. Bring an empath (or a pilot, if you're an empath) who can double as someone to hit the marshworm while you're off-balance. Need to be able to fly and dig.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| The nigh-irresistable urge to watch the movie "Alien", gold.

{|cellpadding="5" cellspacing="2"
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Honour'''
|width="85%"|She restored the might of the fink military.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Start Level'''
|width="85%"|70+
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Difficulty'''
|width="85%"|<span style="background-color: orange;">Medium.</span> There is one high level, aggressive creature around, though the quest does not require that you kill it. A fair mix of hunting and influencing as well as finding hidden places and things.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Notes'''
|width="85%"| The finks, particularly the attendants, are just plain adorable. There can be a bit of frustration when training the would-be champions. Keep in mind that the tracking is cumulative, so you do not have to train all three in one sitting - you can return to the bubble any time to resume working on this, though you will have to do the preliminary part over again. Being able to fly is helpful. Must be able to dig.
|-valign="top"
|style="background: lightblue" width="15%"|'''Reward'''
|width="85%"| Gold.

==Newton Caverns==
