Ah! I just knew Syth sounded familiar.
This birdbrained bookworm is our timeline's "[npc=18472]" who was part of theTerokk's Legacy's quest line in Sethekk Halls. Looks like he didn't have enough time to study the black magics in this alternate universe cause he was too busy reading erotica.
I think I'm in love with Reshad and Percy.

Description
A group of Adherents came 'round just before the attack on Skettis. Disguised myself as a mushroom, I did. The fools walked right past me. My neighbor up the road was not so lucky. He had a fondness for texts, if I recall. Might be valuable information in his hut, if you give Reshad a moment to rummage around. Oh, and bring one of his feathers to the shrine near Veil Terokk, would you? He was such a dear, and I know it's what he'd want.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Echo Hunters
I am no sorcerer, but I've picked up a few spells in my time - enough for me to pass unseen by the naked eye. Unfortunately, the vampire bats in these woods don't use their eyes. They will hear my shuffling robes and Percy's incessant clucking a mile away. Clear them away from the path, would you?
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Syth's Secret
Our deceased friend here was hiding more than a love of old scrolls and erotic sorcery-fiction. He had something truly valuable. If I'm reading his notes correctly, he claims to have found the Eye of Anzu - Terokk's scrying orb from the days after his fall. We need that orb!
