Overview

Note: this article is based on the article on Stratics: [1]

The goal is to find the ship Ararat, which is sunken beneath the waves. Which is cool because it's the only time in Ultima that you get to go underwater!

Screen shots from the quest are at the bottom of the page.


Hepler Paulson

The quest starts in Trinsic. Visit Hepler Paulson the Salvage Master at the Shipwright's.

Click on him and he will tell you of the many recent shipwrecks. He will offer to sell you special gear to help you.


Use the hook in deep water. Double click on it and then on the water. It will sink and then reapear in a few seconds.

It may bring up monsters, and you may have to go back and get more hooks, since they are one-use each. But eventually you'll get the Quest item: Broken Remains of a Shipwreck.


Take this back to Paulson. Since you don't get this as a quest in your journal, you cannot mark it as a quest item. Instead, drag it onto him to get a response.


He will send you on the next step of the quest - East Britain to visit a master tinker. Find the house.

Cousteau Perron

The house is empty but go upstairs to find a book and a scroll. These indicate that Perron was in very cold lands doing research. This leads to...

Cousteau Perron is in the Snow area in Lost Lands. Right next to where the Ice Dungeon tunnel comes out.

Ice Wrym Scales

Cousteau asks you to bring her some scales from an Ice Wyrm. Note that the one right in Ice Dungeon is a White Wyrm and its scales do not count! Go near to where the Arctic Ogre Lords reside in the southern portion of the Ice Dungeon. The Ice Wyrm is near a set of crystals.

Note that the scale will appear in your backpack when you kill the creature. They are not on its corpse!

Plans to a Salvager Suit

Cousteau will tell you that the plans for the diving suit were last seen in the Sorcerer's Dungeon in Ilshenar. You can get to this dungeon by taking either the Honor Moongate and going north, or the Valor moongate and going south.

Go down to the third level. On the north west side find a big room with a table with a scroll on it.

Read the scroll and follow instructions. You will need to find various reagents. Each of these is not a normal reagent, but a quest item which has a timer on it. Click on a plate, and then click on the quest item in your backpack and you will get the message:

* You place the reagent on the plate and hear an ominous click in the background...*

To get each item, double click on it. You cannot drag it into your backpack, so don't waste time trying that our you may quickly die!

  • Mandrake Root is in the same room as the table, just north of the table.
  • Bursting Brimstone is found just north of the test room, where you will also find Rock Mites. Note that you do not have to kill them, if you can distract them long enough to get the brimstone. It has a limited lifetime of 1 hour.
  • Perfect Black Pearl is also on level three, but you need to go back up to level 2 and find the other set of stairs down. When you first enter level 2, there is a room with a table in your way, and you went left to get the the library room. To get to the next three items, go right/straight ahead instead. Go as far east as you can down a hall with many Gargoyles in it. At the end room, there are stairs down. A short way after the stairs is a room with skeletons and a number of writing desks. On one desk, next to a quill, is a perfect black pearl.
  • Vial of Blood is beyond the skeleton desk room, lying on a pentagram. There are Balrons here so be careful!
  • Burly Bone is in a smaller room within the room with the pentagram. Efreet live here.


Back to the room with the table. Read the plates and place each reagent on the appropriate one. A lich appears. Kill it and get a key which will open a strong box on the table where the plates are. Open it to get...

Plans to a Salvager suit

Take this to Cousteau Perron back in the ice area. You cannot just click on her, nor just click on the scroll. Take it and drop it onto her. She will thank you then give you a list of four items to collect.

Collecting the Parts of the Suit

Jhelom, Madeline, Destard - hat

Bucanner's Den- Josef Skimmons. Orc Fort - Orcish Engineer- ore machine

Vesper - Cobbler. SW of Cove Brigand Camp - Mercutio- cutlass

Ilshenar- Gypsy camp - Gemologist. Kill Djinn for gem.

Take all the suit pieces back to Hepler. He gives you a map to a lake in Umbra.

The Ararat

Go to the dock at the lake, equip the suit, and go to the wreck. Step into the whirlpool!

Fight underwater monsters and find the shipwreck.

Find a number of parts, and the Winch Assembly. Repair it.

Then Faulinei the Shadowlord of Falsehood appears for battle!
