    Inquest Reveals Drowning of Pakistani Sisters on UK Varsity Hike

    LONDON: An inquest has revealed that two sisters from Rawalpindi, Hajra Zahid, 29, and Haleema Zahid, 25, tragically drowned on June 11 while visiting Eryri National Park in North Wales with their university friends.

    The sisters were found in water pools along the Watkin Path, a popular route to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, also known as Snowdon.

    Their funeral prayers took place in Northern England on Tuesday evening, with their remains returned to Pakistan the following day.

    Having arrived in the UK four months ago to pursue master’s degrees at Chester University, the sisters were originally from Kahuta and were raised in Gulzar-e-Quaid, Rawalpindi. They were residing in Maltby, Rotherham at the time of their passing. Hajra was married to Hasham Minhas, and they had two young sons, ages six and three.

    A family member expressed their grief to Geo News, saying, “The family is devastated. There are conflicting accounts from the police and the university. The police indicated that one sister drowned, and the other perished while trying to save her, but one sister’s body was found floating while the other was located ten minutes away. Witnesses said they both entered the water together, yet the police have not provided any updates and are not assisting the family.”

    Assistant coroner for north-west Wales, Sarah Riley, stated, “Hajra and Haleema traveled to the Nant Gwynant area with their university friends. They entered the water and, sadly, both lost their lives to drowning.”

    The inquest was informed that the University of Chester students were identified by a friend.

    Riley added, “Investigations are ongoing regarding the circumstances of their deaths, leading to the adjournment of the inquest to allow for further examination. My heartfelt condolences go out to their family, friends, and everyone who knew and cared for them.”

    The inquest hearing took place at the Dafydd Orwig Chamber in Caernarfon, and both women were pronounced dead shortly before 11 PM on June 11.

    A spokesperson for North Wales Police confirmed they received a call around 9:30 PM reporting one woman had been rescued from the water while another remained missing. The second woman was later found but was declared dead at the scene. A mountain rescue team from Llanberis, along with an air ambulance and coastguard helicopter, were dispatched to assist.

    Professor Eunice Simmons, Vice-Chancellor of the University of Chester, stated, “The University of Chester community is mourning the untimely loss of Haleema and Hajra. We extend our deepest sympathies to their families and friends during this profoundly challenging time. Haleema and Hajra joined Chester Business School earlier this year to pursue a Master’s in International Business. Their presence touched many lives here at Chester, and they will be sorely missed.”

    Completing Tainted Grail: Solving the Harpist Sisters’ Fate

    Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon takes place 600 years after King Arthur’s reign. In a world where the Wyrd has been defeated and Kamelot was built, a dark force threatens to engulf the land and throw it into chaos. You play as an ordinary person afflicted by the red plague.

    As you embark on this journey, you will encounter numerous side quests. Embrace your adventurous side as you explore a world filled with forgotten secrets, forge new alliances, and perhaps save the land from impending doom. One important location you’ll find is the Harpist’s Tomb.

    Finding the Harpist’s Tomb

    To locate the Harpist’s Tomb, head north from the Horns of the South. You’ll arrive at a gate that leads to Cuanacht. Go through the passage and continue north onto the rocky area to discover the tomb.

    This site is unique as it unlocks one of two paths based on the time of day. Here lie two sisters, with one in the day chamber surrounded by riches, and the other secluded in the night chamber with nothing.

    Tip: Use your campfire to wait through the day so you can access both sections of the tomb.

    The Day Tomb

    You’re most likely to reach this tomb during daylight. Once inside, take the left corridor and descend the steps to the left.

    Remember to search thoroughly for treasures! You can collect the Starborn Egg and an Origin Potion.

    In the antechamber, you’ll encounter Aine’s ghost, a once-prominent musician who was killed by her sister. She will summon spirits of Greed and Pride that you need to defeat before she shares her story and wishes.

    Warning: These spirits resemble Wyrdspawn monsters and can be quite formidable.

    Once they’ve been vanquished, Aine finds peace. She asks you to bury her remains with her sister, marking the start of your quest.

    The Night Tomb

    After 10 PM, the Wyrd hours, return to the tomb. Take the right path and go down the stairs to meet Aideen.

    While there’s no treasure here, you can gather flowers.

    If you mention talking to her sister, Aideen will accuse you of lying and summon the spirits of Envy and Wrath to defend herself, similar to the previous encounter. Dispatch them swiftly.

    Like her sister, Aideen wishes to be buried alongside her but asks you to take them far from their grim resting place.

    Where to Bury the Sisters’ Ashes

    Exit the tomb and move south past the lower city in Cuanacht until you spot a large, pink flowering tree. Be ready to deal with a swarm of infected creatures outside the city.

    Nearby is a deserter named Sir Vaelin, who might give you some trouble. Keep your distance or equip a shield to defend against his attacks.

    Tip: Once he is defeated, ensure you collect his head!

    When ready, approach the base of the pink tree. Here, you can bury the sisters’ remains and create a new grave for them. Completing this task will end the quest, rewarding you with a substantial amount of experience.
