Scrollsage Nola is a tortollan located in the Eventide Delta in Stormsong Valley and in Little Tortolla in Dazar'alor, as well as in various other areas of Kul Tiras and Zandalar.
She was present in Zanchul in Dazar'alor during Talanji's coronation. Collector Kojo had his hand placed on her.
She also appears during the Wanderer's Festival at the Turtle Beach in the Krasarang Wilds.
Nola traveled to the Dragon Isles and could be found alongside Archmage Vargoth and Chief Telemancer Oculeth at the quarters of Professor Intinosa at Algeth'ar Academy in Thaldraszus.
During the Bronze Celebration, Lashk informed adventurers that Nola had passed away, leaving her final wish with the Tortaka tribe. The adventurer tracked her last wish to the Tortaka tribe, and fulfilled it by summoning Nola's spirit in Zuldazar to observe a tortollan wedding. Nola noted that the couple, and their connection, would be the future of her people. With this, she stated that "this old Tortollan has made it to the water," and told the adventurer was ready to rest.[1]

- Greetings
- Have you come to speak to old Nola?
- You look like you can appreciate a good story!
- It's so nice to see you, dearie!
- What, aren't you a spry young thing!
- Farewell
- This reminds me of a story!
- Come see old Nola again some time.
- Well, wasn't that nice?
- Adventurers are so polite these days.
- Pissed
- Some say I have a tendency to ramble. My sister was far worse, though. Did you know she once fell asleep midsentence?
- I almost didn't notice that she was snoring. Her voice is so rough as it is. Rather like my second grandson actually.
- He was such a proud tortollan. Every bit big for his shell, if you know what I mean. A shame he was eaten by a whale shark.
- Did you know you can use whale shark gills in soup? It prevents scale rock. Oh, eh, what were we talking about?
Gossip
- The Jeweled Coast
Your arrival here today was foretold in the scrolls.
- Terrace of the Devoted
Before a young tortollan can inscribe their first scroll, they need to practice their basic shapes. Can you show these little ones how it's done?
I am ready.
Let me try again. (If you fail at first)
I'll come back later.

These tiny crabs need help! I hate to see any living thing suffer. Would you be willing to lend a hand?
I am ready.
- Algeth'ar Academy
It is so nice to see what these young new spell casters are up to. Very clever work with how they channel their mana through a projected runic construct.
I have not seen someone attempting that since back when Malygos was playing with his ley lines to communicate over long distances. Very clever, though these children seem to lack some flourish to their work.
They like the puzzles, not the wonder of magic. A shame.
