 * 2) Free the hafling  at  from his cell using the key.

Prerequisites

 * 1) Find  in.
 * 2) * He wanders up and down the road to Ryjesium Peaks near The Brute Gathering and Brakthyr's Post, somewhere around or.
 * 3) * The guards in Terens Grasp will give you a location wisp if you ask them to search for him (right-click the guard and select "Find NPC").
 * 4) Tabbin sends you into  to find 3 items: a drum, a mandolin, and a performance mask.
 * 5) * The Mask is a small chest drop from sentries or elites. (Seems like any trash mobs have a chance to drop the mask.)
 * 6) * The Mandolin drops from an iksar entertainer in the mess hall (5 min respawn). Mess hall is located
 * 7) * The drum can be found in Commander's Quarters inside of a chest:
 * 8) *# Be prepared to fight when you first click the chest once . As soon as you click it, a group of three advisors will spawn and attack you. To avoid the fight, go straight to #2. The illusion of the commander is enough to open the chest without alerting the advisors.
 * 9) *# Then make sure you have show illusions ON and click on the Painting, across the room from the chest. This will cast an Illusion on you transforming you into the Commander.
 * 10) *#* If you have chosen to hide illusions, this step will be bugged and you will not get the drum from the chest when you click on it the second time. If you get bugged you need to camp and relog to fix it.
 * 11) *#* You can use the /hide_illusions command or the corresponding option in your Persona window to toggle illusions on and off.
 * 12) *# Click the chest again and you will get your update.
 * 13) Return to . He now gives you the cover of a book with information about the Maiden of Masks. Unfortunately, he has torn out all the pages and used them as IOU's to pay his tabs at different bars across Norrath.

Getting the pages

 * Note: These have to be done in order.


 * 1) Speak to  at Omen's Call in Fens. It turns out Tabbin owes her 185 platinum and 2 copper. Thankfully she lets you pay off the debt by bringing her more fish meat.
 * 2) Kill 100 fishmen for auto-updates. There are plenty of fishmen in the ruins south of Omens Call.
 * 3) Return to . She gives you the page number 2 (its a collection item) and a clue as to where you can find the next page.
 * 4) Head to the Estate of Unrest in Butcherblock Mountains. Page number 3 is a body drop off the The Sadistic Bartender in the instance.
 * 5) * Due to the rapidly spawning elemental effects cast by the bartender, a DPS and healer are strongly recommended.
 * 6) * Only one update per zone, so don't take another illusionist who needs the update.
 * 7) Page 4 is found in Kaladim. When you use the page the first time a lvl 83^^^ mob will spawn. The page is on the table in the tavern room before the Queen.
 * 8) * The mob is root/stun/mezzable so is possible to defeat solo but bringing a friend is recommended. Use the page on the table again to receive page 4.
 * 9) * It seems you cannot harvest the page while the mob is mezzed.
 * 10) Fetch a Cask of Blood Wine for the next step from Neriak. The cask is located in the D'Morte Inn in the very back of the New Foreign Quarters.
 * 11) * You will need to travel to Nektulos Forest or Commonlands, on to Darklight Wood, and through the eastern tunnel to Neriak, City of Hate.
 * 12) **''Note: Invisibility works against the level 85 Epic x2 mobs, but not the wandering guards on horseback. Hug the right wall and keep your eyes peeled for these wandering guards.
 * 13) **''Note: Invisibility only works if you don't have a pet up.'
 * 14) * Alternatively, a raid flag can be placed at the cask by an evil player.
 * 15) Head over to Kelethin in Greater Faydark. Speak to  in the tavern near the Granite Hills Acorn lift . He sends you off to get a cask of Blood Wine, which you should have in your inventory - just give it to him.
 * 16) * Note that Jysolin doesn't have any quest icon above his head.
 * 17) Page 6 is obtained by visiting   in the bar in East Freeport and giving away your Stein of Moggok.
 * 18) * This obviously means doing the Stein of Moggok HQ and having it in your inventory, so if you've sold it you have to buy it back from the Shady Swashbuckler (a bit less than 1p) on Nektulos Forest docks.
 * 19) * After doing the quest turn in and losing the stein, you can again rebuy the stein from the Shady Swashbucker, so you do not have to permanently lose the stein.
 * 20) Page 7 - Hail the bartender  in the Laughing Trout in Rivervale and offer to rescue a damsel in distress and save the world. He settles for a couple of gold though, so collect your page and be on your way.#
 * 21) * Make sure you can speak the language 'Stout'.
 * 22) Page 8 can be found in The Golden Scepter in Maj'Dul. Be prepared to fight as you hail   on the bottom floor. After the second dialog choice 2 groups of 4 83^^ guards spawn and auto-aggro you. After killing the groups speak to the bartender again to receive the page.#
 * 23) * Preferably, take a tank and a healer with you - you likely won't be able to solo them fast enough.
 * 24) * You can let the mobs wipe you and then revive inside the Golden Scepter. This way you can take on the mobs one group at a time.
 * 25) * Also note that the Bartender is an attackable NPC, so be careful with any blue AOE's. If you finish both encounters fast enough before his corpse despawns, you can still right-click and hail his corpse and get your update.
 * 26) Page 9 is from the Bartender   in Windstalker Village in Antonica. She asks you to bring her a lot of T8 carpenter crafts. This will start a subquest called . You need to receive the following items to get quest updates (buying them off the broker gives you updates).
 * 27) * Warning! Do not have the items in inventory when you first talk to her to get quest. She will take the items and not update the quest journal so you wont get page. Only obtain the items after receiving the quest.
 * 28) * Have 5-10pp available! These are all T8 house items that cost 10-30g/ea on the broker (cheaper if you commission someone).
 * 29) * 4 redwood stools
 * 30) * 6 ferrite ornate chairs
 * 31) * 10 leather stitched cushions
 * 32) * 3 redwood gaming round tables
 * 33) * 5 redwood tables

 * 37) Head over to Qeynos Harbor and talk to Nathan Ironforge, a small boy that can be found near the Clock of Ak'Anon or in the upper floor of the inn. Make sure you have your new illusion active. You'll receive a doll from Nathan which you need to take back to Molly who'll give you Page 10 in return.
 * 38) Page 11 - Speak to the Bartender in Terens Grasp  . He will basically say he got rid of it. However,  who's standing right next to the bartender calls for your attention. Speak to her to receive the last page.
 * 39) Head to your favorite collector to turn in the collected pages and receive the book.
 * 40) * There is a collector in Terens Grasp at, so no need to return to your home city or guild hall (unknown how much faction is needed to use the collector in Terens Grasp).
