You say, 'Hail, Lebounde ab Dolmen'

Lebounde ab Dolmen nods approvingly, 'Yeh proven t' be a true craftsman, very well. Head back t' meh house, just south of Shanis' place. On meh table yeh'll find a small box. If luck's on yer side and yeh got a steady hand yeh should be able t' meld t'gether yer Solstice Earring, Taldarius' Signet, and Eron's Jewelry. Head back t' meh after yeh succeed.' He pauses, 'Well... If yeh succeed.'

Go to his house, click the door and you'll port inside. Click the little box on the table:

You dig through the various objects on the artisan's table and recover a small ornate box.

It's a 3 slot box which you combine:
Earring of the Solstice (NOT Xanthe's Earring of Nature)
Signet of Might OR Signet of the Arcane (caster & melee reward of Aid Grimel PoP super TS quest)
Eron's Jewelry (caster or melee version)

This combine is failable, but when you fail you get the quest items back. AFAIK you don't have to do this combine in Halas, and you don't have to be in his room. Once you leave the room you cannot get back in.

You have fashioned the items together to create an unexpected product: Expensive Mistake

The result of this combine is Expensive Mistake. This is the item you are supposed to get and can finish the quest with. Hand it in to Lebounde:

Lebounde ab Dolmen holds up the mangled mass of gems and leaves that was once your prized treasures. He inspects the mass carefully and then looks at you, then looks back at it, then back at you. He breathes heavily and begins chuckling before looking back at the mass again and erupting in uproarious laughter. He places the tangled mess in his pocket and wipes a tear from his eye before calming himself enough to speak, 'My god, Sirenea. What a mess yeh made! Truth be told, I dinnae really expect anyone else t' be able t' make use of that finicky little box. Yeh gave it yer best try and I respect yeh for it, fine enough work t' earn somethin' at least. Maybe with this yeh be less likely to mess up yer next project.'

You have been given: Artisan's Prize
