East Cabilis: Shaman Penance Quest - Resolved

[Zagtor]

This quest is in place for Iksar who lost their newbie weapon and still want to progress through the Shaman Skull quest line. When hailed, Hierophant Zand responds with:

"Hierophant Zand says, 'Welcome to the Temple of Terror, young one. May the pain of the ancients guide you. Have you lost your Iron Cudgel of the Petitioner?'"

The only response that I've given that he responds to is "I have lost my cudgel." To this, he responds:

"Hierophant Zand says, 'The Temple of Terror requires all young Scaled Mystics to wear the symbol of their station. Wear it with pride in these halls to display the rank you have attained. Go now, and serve The Faceless.'"

I'm under the impression that I should be given the basic cudgel or instructions to go to Toilmaster at this point, but I get nothing. Bug or user error?
