Gillarian Naelev says 'Welcome, friend! Welcome to Surefall Glade. I need not remind you about [poaching], I hope...?

You say, 'what poaching?'

Gillarian Naelev says 'Poaching is illegal. We here are the Protectors of the Pine, rangers sworn to protect our land and all its inhabitants. This includes the wildlife. We spend a lot of time hunting poachers. If you want to [join the hunt] just let me know.

You say, 'I will join the hunt'

Gillarian Naelev says 'Very good, friend. Be on the lookout for poachers in Surefall Glade or Qeynos Hills. Especially in the nearby caves. The poachers are not always human. Oftentimes, we'll find ourselves a Blackburrow gnoll or two. Bring me back their heads. Let us see how they look mounted above the mantle. Be on your way, then!

The poachers spawn on the ledge behind the waterfall at 221.68, -179.05, 0.75. It is best to hit them when they spawn as hunting them in the caves is very difficult. The ledge also makes a good place to fish while you are waiting for them to spawn. You can hail a poacher for the following response:

You say, 'hail Poacher'

Poacher says 'Hello, adventurer. I hope the land of Norrath has been kind to you. I myself have made a killing. Hunting is surely the sport of the rich. And if you are not rich at its start, you soon shall b, from the profit made off hides.

Now kill the poacher (the named poachers from Toxxulia Forest will also work). It will drop a poacher's head , which you return to Gillarian Naelev for the following response:

Gillarian Naelev says 'Your deeds are great indeed. We shall cleanse our land of these poachers once and for all. A report has surfaced of a [master poacher].

You say, 'what master poacher'

Gillarian Naelev says 'The master poacher is Talym Shoontar. If you wish to collect the bounty on this vile man, be sure to speak with our leader, Hager Sureshot. No doubt you will find him practicing his skills at the archery range.

If you kill the Gnoll Poacher, and return the Gnoll's head to Gillarian Naelev, he responds:

Gillarian Naelev says 'Fantastic work!! Hager will be pleased. Not only do we rid ourself of a poacher, but we rid the land of these destructive gnolls. Our fletchers crafted this for me,.. Please take it as thanks.
