Talisman of the Eternal Scholar.

Talisman of the Eternal Scholar starts from the Damaged Talisman object inside the cave beneath Hope's Ascent in central Korthia.

Objectives

Bring the Damaged Talisman to Archivist Roh-Suir in the Reliquary of Remembrance.

Description

<The talisman is dented and spattered with muck. Whoever stashed this here handled it roughly.

Archivist Roh-Suir has a spot for this talisman in the Reliquary of Remembrance.>

Rewards

You will receive:

Completion

Where... where did you find this?

<The Archivist brings the talisman closer for inspection.>

I haven't seen this in eons. I thought it had been lost.

Notes

Find the quest-starting object in the cave near the tunnel up to the Hope's Ascent.

On complete:

Archivist Roh-Suir says: Another for the collection. Whatever would I do without your aid?

The talisman reads as follows, once placed back at the reliquary:

Talisman of the Eternal Scholar

<The surface of the talisman is worn smooth by time and the touch of countless hands. According to Roh-Suir, it has been passed down from one archivist to the next in an unbroken chain since the first attendants arrived in Korthia.

Whatever power the talisman once possessed has long since been spent. Only its sentimental value remains.

Perhaps that is enough.>

During development, the talisman instead read:

Talisman of the Eternal Scholar

The Talisman of the Eternal Scholar

The mark of a Ra'zunesh Eternal. Ra'zunesh, a realm of the Shadowlands dedicated to the archiving and collection of all races of the cosmos. The brightest scholars of races were sent by the Arbiter to Ra'zunesh to add the knowledge of their world to the vast Collective housed there.

It was an utter tragedy the day that Maldraxxus was called upon to defend Ra'zunesh. It was found that a large force of the Nathrezim assaulted the Collective, assisted by infiltrators that had been lying in wait for thousands of years. The Nathrezim stole the knowledge and destroyed the Collective, kkilling[sic] most of the Eternal Scholars, the leaders of this realm, before the Maldraxxi forces arrived. In the ensuing battle, many of the remaining denizens of Ra'zunesh were killed or fled, never to return to their realm.

Ra'zunesh remains a ruin today, the Arbiter choosing not to restore it's[sic] purpose.
