Dialogue
- "What destruction have the demons wrought during my imprisonment? Unable to respond to my Master's directives, I allowed many spirits to be sent to the wrong fate. Even now, new spirits are coming to my village. Spirits never meant for this place. Like so many of the dead, they will be hateful and full of malice. You must eliminate these Wrathful Spirits before they destroy those who have come to find their rightful resting place within the Forgotten Vale."

- Reject: "I don't have to do what you tell me."
Reward Dialogue

Walkthrough
Your party should clear the area of the surrounding Grasping Darknesses and Coldfire Nights in the area before starting this quest, so not having to fight multiple mobs at one time.
As soon as the quest is taken, the Wrathful Spirits will spawn. They are called Tortured Spirits, just like the NPCs you have to defend. They are only level 15, but use Illusionary Weaponry with an Illusion attribute of 14 and they do 38 points of damage ignoring armor per hit. There are five groups total and three spirits per group. You want to avoid a group of 3 ganging up on one target due to the huge amount of damage they can do.
Defend the nearest villagers well as the farther ones will probably be wiped out before the party can get to them. After wiping out all groups (there is one group atop a hill overlooking the Reaper), return to the Reaper for your reward.
Notes
- This quest is failed if none of the friendly tortured spirits survive. Make sure to at least defend and heal the nearest group of spirits to your group so that one survives.
- If your party has accepted and completed Escort of Souls, the 4 new souls will remain in the middle of the spawn when this quest is taken. This may result in being kicked out of the Underworld if one of the new souls dies, even if your party has completed and accepted the reward. Therefore it is highly recommended to complete this quest before taking the Escort of Souls quest.
- There is a trick to avoid the possibility of failing the quest. The friendly spirits you need to protect will spawn to the area after you kill the Grasping Darknesses near Mayor Alegheri. If you leave the first Darkness group alive, some of the spirits won't spawn and you can't fail the quest. Just remember to avoid aggroing the darknesses when fighting the Wrathful Spirits. After you have cleared the area of most of the Wrathfull Spirits you can kill the Darknesses.
- If you are trying to charm a Black Widow spider as a pet, it will spawn near the Reaper along with a chest and walk around in the nearby area once all the enemy spirits are gone. When you activate the Charm Animal skill in range of it, the Black Widow will turn hostile like any other pet would during a charm attempt. Make sure to inform your party that you are charming it otherwise some of them might think it is attacking and try to kill it.
