PROPERTY OF NIROBIN


Information acquired from the Lost Atheneum, Forbidden Reach, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

This goblet is not enveloped in merriment and joy like one would expect but sorrow--sorrow born of its owner's sense of impending doom.

My data has uncovered fragments of rebellious missives sent from the goblet's owner to several dracthyr of their creche. Secrecy would have been paramount, as any resistance to Neltharion was responded to with swift prejudice.

Ah... The owner of this goblet was indeed "dealt with" by Neltharion or his agents. Truly unfortunate.

Would that I could go back and inform them just how courageous their beliefs were.


Information acquired from the The Riverbed, Ohn'ahran Plains, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

Data from the Riverbed site suggests a caravan left Maruukai on a diplomatic endeavor led by their Khanam Dochra, or "Favored Daughter."

They traveled to Iskaara territory at the behest of tuskarr leaders where long days of discourse and diplomacy took place at an encampment near Traitor's Rest.

The tuskarr requested martial support against an anticipated attack from Neltharion, but the Maruukai were stalwart and stubborn in their stance of passivity. They believed their involvement would only make them enemies of dragonkind.

Fate frowned upon the Dochra's group. As they traveled back to their territory, they were wiped out by a vicious storm.


Information acquired from the Igira's Watch, Zaralek Cavern, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

I've uncovered a most unique relationship! An Iskaara tuskarr ventured to the Djaradin of Zaralek and initiated a trade agreement! Fish from the seas in return for powerful dragonslaying implements!

The Iskaara stockpiled these weapons over the course of months. The only reason I can verify for this is a djaradin phrase I've translated referring to the tuskarr's "fear of flame from many mouths."

Oh my... The fish were very well received by the djaradin. When the Iskaara trader stopped returning with more fish, a series of riots broke out and many structures were destroyed as a result.

It seems the popularity of lava pool fishing rose during this time as many djaradin decided to slake their desire for fish themselves!


Information acquired from the Gaze of Neltharion, Zaralek Cavern, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

Scandalous! The data suggests the group of niffen bandits buried a fabulous chest of treasure only for some of their company to dig it up again and bury it elsewhere in secrecy from the others.

Deplorable! After being buried again in secret, these shady double-crossers were, in fact, double-crossed themselves! A few of their number dug up the chest and relocated it yet again!

And then--how exhausting--the double- crossers of the double-crossing group were, yes, double-crossed! And that cycle continued several dozen more times thereafter with the treasure being dug up and relocated each time.

As far as I can tell, its final resting place was ultimately lost by all involved.


Information acquired from the Concord Observatory, Waking Shores, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

These Concord astronomers believed their telescopic contraptions gave them the ability to view the future. I cannot confirm the inventions' success as the data from the site is mostly abstraction and vague theories that would be hard to disprove.

However, one of their prophecies caused a panic amongst the flights. It warned of a bloody conflict and of a "traitor" that would sway its outcome.

Though this "traitor's prophecy" garnered them additional sponsorship from several prominent figures, notably the black dragonflight, their success was short lived, and their organization eventually collapsed.

Sadly, there's no retrievable or existing record of their process, so I cannot experiment with their methods myself.


Information acquired from Winglord's Perch, Forbidden Reach, Dragon Isles, Azeroth:

I've rebuilt a fragment of a letter from a child living on Winglord's Perch. It conveys loneliness, pleading the recipient to return.

Through this child's other writings, I've learned that all able-bodied drakonid living nearby were drafted into a conflict on the mainland. Even the youth were not spared.

My analysis shows this child to be the only one remaining on Winglord's Perch at the time. Apparently, she was well-hidden by the frail elderly and missed by those who claimed the other children for their armies.

I cannot help but envision the child remaining on the island long after her elderly neighbors passed, standing alone amongst the fishing poles.

Before any knowledge is uncovered, it says:

<Ever-swirling ink teases indecipherable texts across the parchment. It seems to be mocking your underwhelming research knowledge.>
