Description

Antheol is going to fly off his rocker when he finds out his book is ruined. I've got a little proposal for you; don't worry, I'll make it worth your while.

Take this book to him and tell him nothing of this incident. If he asks, just tell him you dropped the book into a puddle. He has no direct authority over you, so there's not much he can do.

Antheol delivers his lectures at Stillwhisper Pond, southeast of Silvermoon. You'll do this for us, right? I'll reward you handsomely for this favor!

  • Soaked PagesEversong Woods (Burning Crusade) · Level 1-30

    Those blasted Wretched sure can run fast at the sight of someone who'll stand up to them. But let's not worry about that now. I need to find my instructor's elemental grimoire. I'm certain I saw one of those cowards throw it into the river but I cannot seem to be able to locate it.

    I hope you learn a valuable lesson today, <name>. Never trust someone else to lie for you. Now I want you to go back to my two dimwitted students and discipline them using this wand. My magic tells me that you'll find them along the road to the west on the other side of the Dead Scar.
