The Plague of Lice – Drakensang: The Dark Eye Quest

In this guide, you will find a map, legend, and walkthrough for the respective quest in Chapter 8 of Drakensang: The Dark Eye.

Map Legend

1 – Throne Room
2 – Yellow Fluid

Exits:

1. Entrance to Grazima’s Storage.

Background

Grazima will give you this quest when you attempt to leave the throne room (#1) after receiving the quest Suspicion Falls on a Friend.

Walkthrough

Grazima will tell you that crypt lice suddenly started showing up in her tribe’s storage rooms (reached via Exit A), and she’ll claim that it’s sabotage. She’ll then ask you to deal with the crypt lice, and she’ll speculate that finding a clue about the person who orchestrated the attack might somehow help you clear Salina’s name.

Inside the storage rooms, just as advertised, you’ll have to exterminate a bunch of crypt lice. The quest will proceed in stages, and in each stage you’ll have to fend off a handful of crypt lice so Grazima can fix a mechanism that will allow you to proceed deeper into the storage area. Then at the end, you’ll have to defeat some large crypt lice, and you’ll also encounter some crypt lice nests, but destroying the nests is optional.

Note: In the final room (#2), you’ll also find some Yellow Fluid. Picking it up will trigger the quest The Yellow Liquid.

For completing each stage in the quest you’ll receive 30 experience points. You’ll also receive 20 experience points for each of the large crypt lice that you kill. Grazima won’t reward you with anything at the end, but she will mention that a stone tablet was stolen from the storage rooms, and that bit of information will prove useful later.
