Description

Now that we finally have a hold on this wretched island, we can start to investigate how it got in this condition. Some of our troops have discovered journals around the entrance to the Cursed Depths cellblock just east of here.

These journals are of particular interest to our elder scribes back at base camp. I need you to recover four of them and bring them back to me as fast as you can.

<name>, be careful down there, that place is crawling with undead.

I'd love to point out that the quest says it wants FOUR, but under that it says SIX. How many am I supposed to collect? I don't want to just sit here, eating my Rice Crispies, thinking until my brain turns black, SOMEONE HELP!
