You say, 'I'd like to help out if I could.'

Lurek, Priest of Lore says, 'We're not exactly in the line of charity work for any fool who wanders in here after pledging to Jayla. A boat ride and some words do not prove you are worth our time.'

You say, 'If you'd just give me a chance.'

Lurek, Priest of Lore says, 'Fine, if it'll get you out of my hair, you can take these notes to the two Councilors. That'll save me having to walk. I'm old and my feet hurt anyways.'

Give A Note to Cillan to Councilor Cillan (The Grand Library  at -666, 605, 17  • Main lorekeeper area) and complete Cillans Courier Service - Part I

Pledge to Councilor

Once you've collected four strange runes you need to choose either Marek or Cillan to return them to.

I chose Cillan and he rewarded me with my first aug and sent me to Lurek, Priest of Lore.

Lurek, Priest of Lore

Lurek will give you four quests to find four books:

Concerning the Gods People of the Plains Goblin Miners No Legs

Once you've gathered all four books, return them to Lurek. He will then ask you a question from each of these books. When you have answered them correctly he will send you to Lorekeeper Cerren.

Lorekeeper Cerren

Lorekeeper Cerren will request you kill Lord Greyclaw with him. But before you do so he would like some food and drink for the trip. You are tasked to make one [[Wyvern Wrap], one Southern Ale Bread, and one Honey Mead.

Once you've given these items to Cerren he will tell you to meet him within Dragon Necropolis just outside the rat city. He will trigger spawn when you walk through the tunnel leading to the rat city. Once you talk with him you initiate an event where he walks to Lord Greyclaw's room, killing everything along the way. I suggest clearing the way to Lord Greyclaw prior to initiating the event. Once Cerren reaches the entrance to Greyclaw's room he will stop and wait for you to hail him. Be aware that once you hail him he will run into the room and spawn Lord Greyclaw. Cerren doesn't have much health so you must engage quickly. Once you've defeated Lord Greyclaw a bag will spawn in the bone hand he was standing on with a book. Loot this quickly as you only have about 30 seconds before a large horde of 65 rats rushes Cerren's position. Return to Lurek and give him the book and you're aug. He will give you your second aug.

Meeting Jayla

Lurek will send you to Jayla herself. Jayla will task you with seeking out Krum of Oggok. Instead you will find his assistant, Assistant Nia. She will tell you that Krum has gone missing while preparing for a trip to Keep o Mielech. She tasks you to find evidence of him dead or alive.
