Quest text

In a cave along the southern bank of the lake, a timberling named Oakenscowl is spreading corruption to all the creatures that make Lake Al'Ameth their home.

I dared not get too close, but even from a distance, it is obvious: Oakenscowl is being poisoned by the largest tumor I have ever seen... I would call it gargantuan, even.

your name, you have already done much to aid my efforts, but I ask of you one more task. Hunt down Oakenscowl and collect the tumor; remove this source of corruption from my home.

Progress

Have you located Oakenscowl yet, your race?

Completion

I knew you were more than capable of ridding the lake of that horrible beast.

It is a distressing situation; Oakenscowl was once a grand leader amongst his kind... but corruption does not discriminate between the lowly and the noble.

The size of this tumor is quite disturbing, but I must study it to learn more about the disease that upsets the timberling population.

Thank you, your name.
