Obtained From

The Black Forest

A Man in Black (one-time drop)

When Used

• Without Reassembled Blackbird or Reconstituted Crow familiar equipped:

You try to follow the map, but you can't make head or tail of it. It keeps telling you to take paths through completely impenetrable foliage. What was it that the man in black told you about the map? Something about "as the crow flies?"

• With Reassembled Blackbird familiar equipped:

You pull the map out of your sack, and your Blackbird immediately takes off into the air and starts cawing impatiently. It heads off to the east, circling back briefly to indicate that it wants you to follow it. With the Blackbird's guidance, you make your way through the confusing trails and darkened copses until you find, nestled deep within the woods, a tiny black hut with a sign over the door reading "The Black Market".

• With Reconstituted Crow familiar equipped:

You pull the map out of your sack, and your Crow immediately takes off into the air and starts cawing impatiently. It heads off to the east, circling back briefly to indicate that it wants you to follow it. With the Crow's guidance, you make your way through the confusing trails and darkened copses until you find, nestled deep within the woods, a tiny black hut with a sign over the door reading "The Black Market".

• With the reassembled blackbird in your inventory:

You pull the map out of your sack, and your reassembled blackbird immediately takes off into the air and starts cawing impatiently. It heads off to the east, circling back briefly to indicate that it wants you to follow it. With the reassembled blackbird's guidance, you make your way through the confusing trails and darkened copses until you find, nestled deep within the woods, a tiny black hut with a sign over the door reading "The Black Market".

Notes

• Acquired during the Quest for the Holy MacGuffin.
• Upon release, the Reconstructed Crow's text was identical to the Reassembled Blackbird.

History

• On February 2nd, 2012, the map no longer causes your Blackbird or Crow to fly away.
• Prior to that, "The blackbird, its work done, flies off into the distance." was included when using it.
