Description

This huge scroll is made from dragon skin. Unfurling its more-than-ten-foot length, you can see that the images painted upon its scaly surface depict a mysterious vrykul ritual.

A vrykul thane, surrounded by angelic-looking beings, ascends into the heavens. A mysterious, darkened figure looms large in the picture's background.

A tingling in your gut tells you that the thane of Skorn is about to do this. You must stop it! A large pyre sits at the top of Skorn in front of the thane's lodge.

For those who might be targeting some of the gear on this quest, it appears you must be on the Skorn quest line from Westguard to get the scroll to drop.

I didn't kill a ton, but quite a few to test this. If someone else got it to drop without going to Westguard, please let us know.
