After handing in the book Anchorite Paetheus said this:
Anchorite Paetheus says: Now , let's see...
Anchorite Paetheus says: In the process of translating this, I believe I've learned more about the drunken exploits of a certain 'Andrew Clementine' than about the journal's author.
Anchorite Paetheus says: But, no matter. Mister Clementine's... err, 'contribution' notwithstanding, this seems to be the journal of a man named Nolkai. The entries toward the end describe a brutal battle.
Anchorite Paetheus says: Take a look at this passage...and then we get to the follow up quest.
Turning in this quest gave me 250 rep with Exodar.

Description
Lacking the means to read the book's contents, you think about who might be able to help you separate the author's words from the mapmaker's scrawl. Remembering Anchorite Paetheus's collection of artifacts from countless cultures, you wonder if his experienced eye might be able to help you decipher the book's contents.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.
