Quest text

Bethor Iceshard, a high-ranking and powerful mage in the Undercity to the south, commands me to send him an agent with proven worth against the Scourge. You, your name, will be that agent.

Present these orders to Bethor. He will then instruct you on your mission. I don't know its details, but it deals with recruiting a wayward Lich. And it will be dangerous.

So ready yourself, your class. You must not fail.

You may find Bethor in the Magic Quarter of the Undercity.

Progress

Greetings. Either you do not know who I am, or your business with me is urgent.

Because if neither of these were true, then you would not be foolish enough to disturb me...

Completion

Ah, you are the agent sent by Magistrate Sevren. Then yes, your business with me is crucial.

I trust Sevren has mustered someone suitable for my task...but we shall see.
