Again, only USE Auto-Battle when you’re sure of victory, because it likes to waste your Potions, and it doesn’t think to use your Axe Mercenaries against the middle of an enemy row for greatest effectiveness!

The “good” news, he’s Evil Type, so if your
Shaman or Oracle isn’t otherwise occupied, you can damage him pretty heavily by casting Heal on him! The bad news is, he and his entourage (Randomly selected from the monster types in this area) WILL try their best to “damage you pretty heavily”. He has AMAZING Magic Defense, and the by-now usual immunities to Stun and Freeze.
Utnapishtim says there are some BIGGER
Keyshas who lead the others, and he wants you to bring back 20 Little Idols from the Monstrous Keyshas.
Monstrous Keyshas are about what their
name implies: Everything you hate about the Keyshas, just bigger. More HP, slightly higher Defense, and Flame Sword instead of Self Destruct. The bad news is, they live after using Flame Sword on your Mercenaries. The GOOD news is, they can still be killed and looted if your Mercenaries survive!
Ironically, his Special Attack is LESS
damaging than his normal attack. “Boomerang of Time” hits any character in your Formation for about half damage. Again, his normal attack is an AXE, which means he’ll carve the Characters to the left and right of his intended victim!
This is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so
you’ll have to kill a lot more than 20 to win! Once you finish collecting, return to Utnapishtim for 45,000 Gold and 5 Mana Potions (III)!
Once you manage to kill Humbaba, any
survivors in his entourage will run away, and you should run back to Utnapishtim. Your reward is 45,000 Gold and 5 Life Potions (III)! (Gee, is he trying to tell you something?)

He says it in an offhand way, as if it’s an easy task; no big thing. Don’t be fooled!

victim, PLUS the Mercenaries to the left and the right of his intended victim. Pray that he doesn’t attack the center Mercenary of your frontlines!
You “only” have to kill ONE, but as
mentioned above, they’re quite a challenge, and they don’t spawn in EVERY group of Caracals. If you have a Patrol License, use it, being able to see which Formation has a Kegarrd in it will shorten your Quest IMMENSELY! Just remember, you’re SEEKING the Kegarrd this time, rather than trying to AVOID it!
If you DO meet him, Freeze, Stun, or kill
all the Caracals BEFORE engaging Kegarrd! You can KILL the Caracals within one or two turns, while in the same amount of time, you’d just barely insult Kegarrd, and more importantly, he and his escorting Caracals would tear your Formation apart!
Once you’ve killed one, report back to
Utnapishtim for 45,000 Gold.

HP. The BAD news is, they’re mutant birds, which means they’re FLYING monsters, so your Melee Mercenaries can’t hit them without Special Attacks. Beware, when low on Health, they fly up to your soldiers and Self Destruct, doing HEAVY damage to your frontlines, and arguably worse, enemies that Self Destructed don’t count toward your quota! Be sure to FINISH OFF any Keyshas you wound!

PHYSICALLY, but they have AMAZING Magic Defense, AND an annoying habit of casting Noble Sacrifice when low on Health. If they do that, it heals all the monsters except themselves, and the caster “dies” without a corpse! So basically, no Soul, no loot, AND all the enemies are healed…Again, fight to KILL, not wound!

Priestesses of Ishtar are accompanied by
PHYSICAL attack, but decent Magic Resistance. Worse, they cast War Cry, which, in addition to doing a fair amount of damage, almost prohibits afflicted Characters from hitting more than once per turn (Lowers Multi-Hit chance by 54%, and the chance isn’t that high to begin with, so that’s pretty much prohibited afterward.) Worse, they almost ALWAYS call for reinforcements!
Oracles of Ishtar, which are even MORE annoying, in that they cast Meteor Storm on your Formation they can wipe out all your Characters at once! It’s up to you which you kill first. Mana Drain works WONDERS on these guys, but again, it’s better to KILL than Drain!

Occasionally they will be accompanied by
Beast King Kegarrd, a MiniBoss (Immune to Stun and Freeze the Damage Over Time component of Freezing Axe will still work, but he can move and attack, wearing the ice like a grass skirt!), who looks like a big rhino, crossbred with Sonic the Hedgehog.

Enril Magicians, on the other hand, cast
Brutal Will which actually benefits you, as it prevents the Enki Magicians from using Spells AT ALL! Oh, and use your Witch’s Mana Trap for a surprisingly high amount of damage the next time they reapply Brutal Will!

of Wise Fox. Cast Holy Guard on your frontlines, and the enemy will be forced to use their pitiful Melee attack, rather than their devastatingly powerful Special Attack!
This is a LOOT Quest, not a KILL Quest, so
you’ll have to kill much more than just 30. Once you’re done collecting, bring them to Scheherazade for 45,000 Gold and 2 Patrol Licenses (III). This allows you to see the makeup and Formation of enemies BEFORE you enter battle! It’ll come in handy soon…

the Stone Swordsmen, but lower Defense and HP. However, they have the Spell Lightning Spear, which drains the afflicted characters’ AP, sometimes forcing them to skip a turn! Again, they are accompanied by Stone Swordsmen, and sometimes even Stone Cannonmen!
HOWEVER, they are accompanied by Slave
Spearmen, who DO have Lightning Spear, Slave Archers, who can snipe your vulnerable backfield, and sometimes even Silent Cannoneers, who are incredibly powerful MiniBosses!
On balance, though, killing Stone
Spearmen should be easier than killing the Stone Swordsmen was 2 Quests ago!
Once you kill all 25, return to Utnapishtim

Slave Swordsmen, in contrast to the Stone
Swordsmen and their crystalline, alien appearance, look almost human, yet musclebound and emaciated at the same time. Still pretty good for people kept alive(?) by Dark Magic!

Monster Book Information is optional. If

Chief Eagles, as you might expect, can fly,
which makes them hard for Melee Mercenaries to hit, but low HP makes them easy fodder for Ranged attacks or Specials from your Mercenaries. The bad news is, they ALL can cast Beast Summon Just like your Beast Trainer And you’ll be swarmed with more birds than a Hitchcock movie! It’s recommended to have a Witch with Mana Drain, so they have to rely on their Melee attack, which does minor damage to ONE Character, REGARDLESS of placement in the Formation.
