Bestowal Dialogue

'Glad I am to hear that the crystals’ corruption did not spread to the sabre-tooth cats.

'I was making headway with this cursed journal, but the writing has slipped into what I believe to be the Black Speech. Here, take the book up to Bazanmanar, and find Lore-master Rúni. He may be able to decipher these fell scrawlings. I shall meet you there.'

Background

The foul and fell scribblings of a madman may be the key to stopping the further spread of the corrupted crystals.

Objective 1

Rúni is in Bazanmanar.

Mother Amma has asked you to speak to Lore-master Rúni.

Rúni: 'Ah, welcome to Clovengap, <name>! There is a dragon nearby!'
You show him the journal and ask if he can read it.
'Most certainly not! I have not wasted precious hours trying to decipher that filth when I could instead be studying dragons. Talk with Málur. In his younger days, while an Orc prisoner, Málur learned their foul language. He may best be able to help you with this text.'

Objective 2

Málur Keenword is in Bazanmanar.

Lore-master Rúni has directed you to speak with Málur about the journal.

Málur Keenword: 'Aye, I am Málur. A journal, you say? Well, give it here.'
