I got a champion task and decided to see if I could wangle it. Can't actually kill the thing myself because I'm not currently looking to be permashocked.

With a combination of manipulate, guardian spirit, and the odd shocking hit:

An ambulatory coral reef with jagged protrusions strikes its limestone foot against the ground, kicking up debris at a svelte alfar warrior.

A svelte alfar warrior feints low at an ambulatory coral reef with jagged protrusions. The blade lands a light hit that smashes into the exoskeletal limestone as vibrant pearl-pink goo spurts into the air!

An ambulatory coral reef with jagged protrusions shakes the land as it falls to the ground, luminescent goo leaking into the water from its wounds.

Tidal Flats, Rocky Overlook]

Crashing waves break against brecciated rock covered in chitons and barnacles, while gulls effortlessly soar above. The pungent stench of rotting vegetation and scuttling creatures stranded outside of the safety of evaporating pools mingles with the sharp sea spray. A sheer cliff face prevents southward travel, the ocean beckons to the north and a series of shallow pools stretch to the east.

You also see some tangled seaweed, a svelte alfar warrior, an ambulatory coral reef with jagged protrusions which appears dead, a substantial watery ripplegate, a glowing iron fragment, a glowing iron fragment, a decomposing Merelew, a tiny banded amber citrine, a tiny chestnut carnelian, a tiny copper-colored opal, a large laced mint green chrysoprase, a white fish eye, a decomposing Merelew, a spiked black shield, a rockclaw lobster with a cobalt-blue underbelly, a decomposing Merelew and some junk.

Obvious paths: north, east.

You look in your task journal and see the following entry:

The Merelew island of Andreshlew has risen from the depths, but all is not well! Corrupted remnants of the massive arachnid have washed ashore and caused great disturbances for the Merelew people as well as the flora and fauna of the deep seas. Factions of the Merelew are vying for your support and help in cleaning Andreshlew.

Ceryaen has asked that you seek out a rather strong beast that's been harassing others trying to clean and purify Andreshlew and its surrounding seas. Slaying enough of its lesser breathren should summon it. Aid others also seeking such foes to share in the victory.

You have performed the following tasks:

12 kill tasks, 10 item recovery tasks and 28 searching tasks

Disappointed! I don't really expect GS kills to work for general kills, but I thought since all I had to do was be in the room for a reef kill I'd be good to go. Unless you have to do this one with a group? Me and the Alfar and lobster-bro are totally a group though...
