I dont buy that the term Mistress was used to describe Helsa Mindreaver. Mistress was in her location of course on launch Velious based on his statements. The rework likely moved her later on to the spawn point below the temple.

Apologies, actually I think you are correct on this, after more thoroughly reviewing the details in this thread and others. The additional combat description here:
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/...8&p=2#comments is clearly talking about castle, which is consistent with Caud's comment. I can show some screenshots that make this clear if it's useful to GM's.
So vague timeline is:
dec 5 - velious launch
dec 11 2000 - caud describing named mistress -

feb 21 2001 - clear evidence describing the instrument exists and people discussing -

nov 13 2001 - still fighting mistress in castle, description is consistent with the difficulty of pulling her -

So I think this is definitely correct and in era. Wonderful find!
The only remaining question I think is still the relationship with Helsia. It's clear Helsia was around in 2002 and even then there was some question around whether she was a PH for Mistress L. and then she was promptly removed in 2003 revamp. See
https://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/npc.html?id=10212 specifically "It seems she is the PH of Mistress Latazura. She drops the BP/robe gems for armor quest too."
