<blockquote>Magus Burlshin says 'Hail, stranger. You look like an adventurer, and I have use for adventurers. I imagine that you noticed all of the crystals falling from the sky, how could you not. Well, we Magus... Magi, are certain that they will be of some use. They hold a bit of power, even the smallest of them. Not enough to do anything on their own. We're hoping to gather enough of them to do... something with them. I'll take any you can gather up. Though I'm not sure we can offer any sort of reward for you now, we'll certainly remember your kindness.'</blockquote> | |||
He doesn't give a quest, but accepts and shards you turn in, and in return gives faction for "Crystal Circle Builders". It takes exactly 21 shard turn ins to hit max Ally. Here is a breakdown of faction turn ins: | |||
* Indifferently to Amiable - 1 Shard | |||
* Indifferently to Kindly - 5 Shards | |||
* Indifferently to Warmly - 8 Shards | |||
* Indifferently to Ally - 11 Shards | |||
* Indifferently to max Ally - 21 Shards | |||

As of the time this info was gathered, there is no rewards for this, other than the faction. The vendor is empty at all faction levels, and the Magus gives the same response to hails at all levels of faction. There are a few possibilities - The rewards may be added later or the faction might be useful at some point in the ''Rain of Fear'' expansion. | |||
