Start Location: En Vestilua or Lavvana (7.6S, 87.2E), northwest of Sanctuary, Vesayen
Walkthrough:
By speaking to one of the two quest givers you have a choice as to which way would best serve the battle versus the Burun.
Lavvana tells you:
"Ah, seeker, I see you agree with me that our
respected war-leader's plans are deranged by his unreasoning hatred of the
Burun. They are our enemies, it is true, but surely it is wrong to slaughter
their children.... I have an alternate plan to neutralize the Clutch without
destroying it. Each Clutch uses a terrible Blood Fetish to initiate the new
Broodlings into their toxic rituals of pollution and corruption. Without the
Fetish, the new generation will perhaps not be as susceptible to their
traditional tendency toward violence and destruction. In any event, they will be
much less powerful enemies."
Or...
En Vestiluas tells you:
"Well met, warrior! With the disorganization of
Nemesis forces following the tumult in the Undead ranks and the defeat of the
Archons, we are finally ready to take the war to the vile Burun! All our
warriors must do their part, but I have an especially vital and dangerous
mission for you. You must infiltrate the Burun Clutch south of Ankoro and
destroy the loathsome Brood Mother and her horrid spawn, the Broodlings. With
the Brood Mother and her children dead, the Clutch will be neutralized as an
offensive force until a new Brood Mother can be raised. Hopefully that will give
us time to wipe them out completely! Death to the Burun!"
Head to the Burun Clutch(24.4N, 72.7E), South of Ankoro.
Once inside make all right turns until you come to a red Dungeon Portal, use the portal and follow the path to the main chamber were the Burun Brood Mother is located. Here you have two options based on the questline you chose.
A(Lavvana): Run past her into the statues belly's invisble pathway entrance were the sun engraving is) to steal the Blood Fetish to advance "Infiltrate the Clutch".
Blood Fetish |
B(En Vestiluas): You can kill her to advance "Slay the Brood Mother"
Once you have completed your assigned task return to En Vestiluas or Lavvanas(7.6S, 87.2E) northwest of Sanctuary to complete your quest and gain your reward.

road to peace. Regardless, the Clutch has been disarmed for the time being.
Please accept this amulet as a reward for the risks you've taken. It will
substantially improve your healing rate."

Burun must be spilled to the last drop before we can reclaim Omishan as our own!
As a reward for your victory, you may hand me your weapon and I will bestow on
it an enchantment which will enable you to slay even more of the repulsive
creatures."
