So the question is... what does Zeb have to hide?
 
and has anyone spoken to Zeb since the other profits have appeared?
 
Is he angry of everything that has happened to him and decided to take a hand in what is going on.. maybe apathy has left the building and Zeb is stepping up to the plate.
 
After reading about the Quest for this I came across the actuall conversation..
 
thanks to Pinski..
 
A few things though.. at no point does he say that all the nine are profits.. nor does he say that he is not one of them...
 
Also of interest is that he says that he is gonig to be taking a more active role this time and that he will not fall into the same trap that he did last time. (in bold.)
 
I think that the Gods have awoken something in Zeb that they may wish that they had not.

Zhen Mei/a says to you,"I am pleased to see you again, Calaglin. I had not expected events to unfold quite so quickly."

You say, "Hail, Zhen Mei"

You say to Zhen Mei,"Huh? What events? Nothing happened. Chel'Drak spouted something that had no meaning at all."

Zhen Mei/a says to you,"No meaning? I think perhaps you do not comprehend what has happened here."

You say to Zhen Mei,"No, I guess you're right. What was Chel'Drak talking about?"

Zhen Mei/a says to you,"Chel'Drak was a guardian of something very important. Something which I could not remember until now."

You say to Zhen Mei,"And that would be?"

Zhen Mei/a says to you,"A portion of my essence. Long ago, I placed this within Chel'Drak's care. Though the citizens of Tanaan foolishly tried to gain the knowledge I entrusted to Chel'Drak, at the time he was the guardian of nothing."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"I don't understand."

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"Long before the gods left Norrath, I had forseen the exodus. At that time, I returned to Chel'Drak, and entrusted a portion of my essence to him. Since then, he has guarded it with greater patience than I could have hoped."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"And you had me kill him for his service?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"Do not be melodramatic. Chel'Drak has been released from his service on Norrath, this is true. However, he will forever retain a place of exultation within my realm. I shall leave a portion of his spirit for others to discover the secrets which you have."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"But then why the duplicity? Why tell the Tanaanites that he possessed knowledge?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"It was a test. One which they failed. Though I did not foresee the consequences of their failure, one must understand that the fate they endured was brought on by their own lust for the forbidden."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"That seems unusually cruel."

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"This is true. Long ago, I had not the wisdom to understand the full ramifications of my actions. Upon me was thrust the full knowledge of the planes, their workings, and the gods. I was not yet wise."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"And you think you are now?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"I can only hope that what I do now is the right thing for this world. Only time will tell. Once, I paid for my indiscretion. Now I will atone for that. The world will once again be imbued with the attention of the gods."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"When? When will this occur?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"It will take time. It will not be a fast process. The nine will rise again to take their place at the end. Others will no doubt follow."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"Wait, what nine? Who are you talking about? What end?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"All will be explained in time. That day is a long way off. Perhaps so long that only several generations of your line down the river will see or understand."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"I see. But the nine will come?"

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"I will ensure it. The proper events have been set in motion. Until then, I shall remain here. I challenge you to go out into the world and spread the word of the return. Belief will hasten their formation."

You say to Zebuxoruk,"I will do my part, and eagerly await this return."

Zebuxoruk/a says to you,"Be wary of your treatment of the gods, for they have become wary of their followers and the followers of others. Seek them for whatever you wish, but be warned - they will not lightly take unfavorable actions against their person."

You say to Zhen Mei,"I will remember this."

 
And that's all Zebuxoruk/Zhen Mei(same person) says when finishing the quest.  If you want I can post the stuff everybody else says as well.


One last Edit: Zeb is the first profit really as he is the first to tell that the gods are returning... (if you want to look at it that way.)
