How it is completed

stored id 2

This realm keeps one row per patch for some quests, and this is the patch 0 row — the newest it carries. This realm's own quest table holds 4,727 rows for 4,433 quests, counted from this realm — the difference is the patch rows.

Who starts it

2 starts, from this realm's own relation tables — a quest can be offered by more than one creature or object.

This quest row records no previous and no next quest, so it stands alone in the realm's data. A chain can also be carried by other rows pointing at this one.

Items this row names

Role	Item	Count
Asked for	Yagyin's Digest	1
Reward	Skull of Impending Doom	1

Every item here is named by this realm's own item table, and each name is a link to that item's page.

The gossip a player reads first

I have the digest for you, $N. I need not tell you to take great care with it. And to keep it far from unfriendly hands. $B$BThis book holds many truths...$B$B...And the truth can burn.

Objectives

Bring Yagyin's Digest to Theldurin.

When the items are handed over

Ho! You were gone a long time. Did you get the digest?

What the quest-giver says at the end

You got it! Oh, hope glimmers!$B$BYour efforts may yet save us, $N. A monument they should make of you! A shrine they should build! May your name be praised until your grandchildren have grandchildren!$B$BUnless...THEY are freed and rise to the surface. If that happens then you can forget about children.$B$BIf THEY are freed, then we're all worm food.

This is the text the realm stores, written as stored. A vanilla quest writes a line break as “$B” and refers to its item counts as “%d”; the rules that turn those into a sentence belong to the game client, so the page keeps the codes rather than guessing at the prose.

Every row above is this realm's own quest row, read from its quest_template table. A value the realm did not record is left out or written as none rather than filled in with a plausible number. The figures labelled “stored id” — how the quest is completed, its type, and a reward spell — are keys into game data this realm was never sent, so they are printed as stored and carry no invented meaning. The experience figure is the base value the row holds: the amount a player is actually given depends on the character's level, and that rule belongs to the game client.
