Also, there is a bard in a tavern somewhere who has advice on how to get the jewel.
- (Optional) Talk to Otto at the Steaming Sheep in Port Bastok (E-6); he will point to the bard mentioned above, Carmelo.
- (Optional) Talk to Carmelo; he sings a cryptic song explaining how to get the tear and he explains its meaning.
- Go to North Gustaberg (east section) and locate the ??? along the river at J-8 / J-9. (You can avoid aggro by going via Port Bastok.)

- Trade the tear to Wahid to complete the quest.
