This is one of the simpler of the stitch quests. The owl stewards have the scrolls and they're scattered around the quest area. Just click them to get a scroll and kill 8 of the forsworn guys and you're done.

What to do
Description
Throughout the Shadowlands, there is so much magic to learn! A threat in Bastion has put many of their ancient teachings in danger. I wish to study their scrolls before they are lost forever. We must travel there and safeguard what we can! Help me fight back the Forsworn at the Temple of Humility and save the scrolls within.

Quest chain
