Runnyeye and Soluseks Eye.

[Jimjam]

I reckon this is an example of conflict in the system.

One (team of) dev(s) designed / populated a zone, then someone else designed a quest or storyline and threw in a new npc into the zone that completely threw off everything else.

Either that or galaxy brain game design where gossip would get out from struggling newbs, which would eventually feed back to higher levels who would swoop in and heroically ‘save the day’ (and make off with the booty).
