World Spoilers For 1.20 Quests: Quest Idea: Jailbreak (and A New Use For Dead Island)

So, I first want to say that Dead Island is one of the least interesting areas in the game.
"It was once alive and then an egg hatched which made a beast kill everyone, then that beast was killed by bob."

Oooh! Such great writing!

Now, I think that the writing team has gotten much better. I do keep in mind that this hasn't been updated in like 6 years. However, I realized that, if they are willing to change some things in wynn (lava springs, tempo town), they could definitely replace a random island in the corner of the ocean.

In 1.20, the quest Hollow Sierne was removed. I am not upset, but there is now only 2 quests in the area. A lot of the structures in the forest are unused. I do not know how you would use some of these structures, but I have an idea with a new quest in the area.

What is interesting is that Dead Island is around lv 70, much like the kander forest. I propose a new use for Dead Island, which I will here elaborate on.

Spoiler: Spoilers for Realm of light III, forbidden prison, and lexdale witch trials.

So, at the end of ROL III, you find that there is a barrier between you and dulluhan (which I doubt is worthy of a dungeon, or raid, and, if anything, only a boss altar). It is implied that the barrier is weakening, and that the harvest of souls at the prison will one day free dulluhan. There is currently no quest to defeat dulluhan, so this is basically a stand in (and I think that there is a lot of quests that need to be added in the kander forest, as there are a lot of characters here).

You remember how they mention a pit in the prison? Well, I was thinking in terms of a LITERAL pit. What if you had to renter the prison and find a way to destroy the barrier?

They would obviously through you right in this pit (because, I mean, how many times do you see a human soldier around here?). You need a way to get back out of this pit.

Enter the NEW dead island. A portal to this place would be created in the quest. I noticed that there were a lot of floating islands on the ocean side of the mountains near dead island (I don't mean the ones over the void). My proposal is that dead island is one of these islands over a giant whirlpool. Why is it floating:
Souls. Like soul sand, the souls lift the island up.

You go here and get some item that allows you to escape the pit. I would think you would fight the warden at this point, ending the reign of the horrible actions of the prison (maybe make this the goal of the quest).

But, you used souls. You even through the warden into the pit. The barrier is finally destroyed.

You now MUST destroy Dulluhan before he takes his revenge.

Maybe you can use the npc's from Lexdale witch trial or something to start the quest, like maybe the mayor threatens someone's family with the endermite thing. I don't know.

I know this was painful to read. But it was just a brain dump. Hopefully some ideas are ok.
