Dialog (Belgun the Quarry Master)
 * "Few are privy to this information. Consider yourself honored.


 * The Order of Whispers is a secret society led by the Master of Whispers. Members of our order have sworn an oath to protect the dark secrets held in these mines.


 * We must move quickly. The Kournan troops have already discovered one of Palawa Joko's ancient coffers, which they believe house the scriptures of Abaddon. Fortunately for us, the only miners around here that would have such a coffer are me and Jenahn. Nevertheless, we must find the coffer and take it from the Kournans before they devise a way to open it. Are you prepared to strike?"


 * Accept Quest: ''"The Kournans must be stopped! Who knows what vile evil lurks inside the coffer?"
 * Reject Quest: "Nobody knows what junk is inside that trunk, and I'm not about to find out."

Intermediate Dialog (Kournan Guard)
 * "Open the ancient coffer for us, and Warmarshal Ossa will guarantee you rewards beyond your wildest dreams. The paperwork is already worked out, you lucky stiff."

Intermediate Dialog (Assistant Jenahn)
 * "Finally! You have no idea what it's like to handle precious gems with your bare hands day by day, then go home at night a pauper with nary enough to feed yourself. Step aside. Yes, I recognize this type of container. I've opened many just like it. There we go...all done!"

Intermediate Dialog (Assistant Jenahn)
 * "By the gods, what have I done! May Lyssa forgive me."

Intermediate Dialog (Master of Whispers)
 * "What secrets are contained here that Varesh seeks these scriptures? Here, let me see."

Reward Dialog (Belgun the Quarry Master)
 * "The Order of Whispers is indebted to you. Had these scriptures reached the Warmarshal, who knows what catastrophe might have ensued? Jenahn, though far from perfect, did not deserve such a foul end.
 * Remember what you saw here today. Should you fail to stop Varesh Ossa, we will all share a similar fate."

Followup
 * Puzzling Parchment

Walkthrough

 * After you accept the quest, make your way north to just outside of the Basalt Grotto. If you've already visited the Basalt Grotto, it may be faster to map travel there and exit back into the Vehjin Mines.


 * You will witness Assistant Jenahn open the coffer of Joko for a Kournan Guard. After you have killed the Guard, a Scythe of Chaos spawns from the coffer and kills Jenahn.


 * Eliminating the hostiles for this quest is easier than in the previous quest, because the groups will be stationary rather than charging at your party, and there will be less of them. Work your way north through the groups of Margonites and Kournans as usual.


 * Return to the Ancient Coffer and activate it to acquire the scriptures of Abaddon. See Belgun for your reward.
