Dialogue
 * "Ah, it's you again! The precious artifacts you gathered surely brought us one step closer to allowing our most wise and noble king to remain the mortal realm year-round. You've proven to be a most useful servant. It's time to complete the next step of the ritual."
 * "His Highness's soul can't rightly return to the mortal realm without having a body to unite with. Deep in the swamps of Kryta, near the border of the Maguuma Jungle, lies a great mausoleum that houses much of the nobility from generations past. Truly a "who's who" of wealthy dead people! I need you to claim our gracious king's mortal vessel so we may prepare it for his return. Search the mausoleum for the elegant sarcophagus, and you'll have our corpse!"
 * "Oh, one more thing: watch out for dragons!"


 * Accept: "The thought of the Mad Kin's soul floating around on the loose frightens me too much to say no."
 * Reject: "Ok, I have to draw the line at corpse stealing."

Reward dialogue
 * "Ah, yes. I figured picking out the corpse based on the exquisiteness of its casket would provide a vessel of sufficiently noble blood for His Highness's soul. Oh, don't give me that look! We would have used King Thorn's actual body, but... well, let's just say the revolting masses got rather creative with it after his untimely demise. I assure you, you would not want to have been tasked with fetching that cadaver! Here's something for your troubles. You may want to wash your hands, by the way."

Walkthrough
When you enter Majesty's Rest, three Mad King's Guards will spawn with you. Follow the quest marker to the center right and approach the island with Rotscale. Killing Rotscale is optional, as he can be pulled and walked around to enter the mausoleum. Once in the mausoleum you will have to fight through groups of undead to reach the Elegant Sarcophagi. Careful pulling is a must; expect at least one or two wipes (the group will resurrect on the stairs at the beginning of the mausoleum) and bring some DP remover. Interacting with a sarcophagus spawns an undead, keep progressing through the mausoleum and the quest will update on a random sarcophagus (often the fifth, or last, sarcophagus to be checked). Return to Lion's Arch for your reward.
