Siegfried wants proof of killing ten drowned dead: their tongues, to be specific. You can find plenty of them in the swamp. Collect the desired amount of tongues and return for a reward. This can be done as long as you have access to the swamp, which can be obtained through the "right connections", bribery or the City Guard signet ring.

Notes[ | ]

  • The drowned dead journal entry is required to complete this contract (without it, drowned dead remains will not include tongues).

Phases[ | ]

Drowned Dead Tongues[ | ]

Siegfried will pay for ten tongues of the drowned dead. I need to collect ten drowned dead tongues for Siegfried.

Loot[ | ]

If you did not team up with Siegfried, he remains on guard duty at the hospital which prevents you from handing in the quest. However, once you gain the quest to deliver a letter to Vivaldi's bank from Yaevinn at the Druids Grove, Siegfried relocates to the swamp where the quest can then be handed in.

If you teamed up with Siegfried to fight the cockatrice:

I have ten tongues of the drowned dead. I should see Siegfried and collect my reward. I should see Siegfried and collect my reward. (500 XP) or

If you fought the cockatrice alone:

I have ten tongues of the drowned dead. Siegfried is sure to reward me for them. He was assigned to guard the hospital as punishment, and he can't pay out rewards until he's relieved. I must see Siegfried about my reward, but only once he's relieved of his guard duty at the hospital. (500 XP)

Payment[ | ]

Job done. Siegfried paid me in gold for the drowned dead tongues. I received my reward for the tongues of the drowned dead. (150 oren(s) + 2000 XP)
