- Dive to the bottom of the and kill the Water Fiend (this should also earn you fame)
- Retrieve the black pearl from its corpse
You may not find it every time as the pearl may not always load. Wandering mobs may also cause the Water Fiend to awaken and wander the lake.
Craft the necklace
Return to the girl. You will give her the items and she will craft the necklace for you; however, read the instructions carefully as the scripting on her doesn't handle being given many items properly.
First, attach a freshwater pearl to the necklace by giving the girl 1 freshwater pearl and the gold thread. Do not give her any more items until she returns the single-bead necklace to you.
Then, continue attaching freshwater pearls by giving the girl 1 freshwater pearl and the necklace. Do not give her more than those two items at once - wait until she returns the necklace to attach a new freshwater pearl.
Repeat the process until all 4 freshwater pearls are on the necklace. The girl should say that a black pearl is needed.
Give the girl the black pearl and the four-bead necklace. She will craft the necklace, but...
Kill the were-jaguaress
Instead of returning it to you, the power will kill her and summon the were-jaguaress.
Kill the the were-jaugaress and retrieve the necklace from her corpse.
Story
Freshwater pearls, though wrinkled and grey compared to their saltwater equivalents, nonetheless can be used as jewelry. Sometimes a pearl of great size and lustrous black color forms. They are said to contain great power.
