Talk to Tarkleigh to start the quest after completing Mercy Mission or entering the Fetid Pool

Tarkleigh: Got a job for you, if you’re willing. There’s a pool near the Mud Flats needs investigating. You’ll smell it before you see it. Stinks like a carcass in high summer. But that’s not the worst of it.

Dead birds walking. Animals don’t rise up again the same as people do here. So if they aren’t raising themselves, what’s doing it for them? The answer’s in that Fetid Pool.

Clear the place out and kill whatever’s raising those rhoas. We’ve got enough living dead to contend with already.
