The Lorekeeper's Scrolls  

Weltria Ostriss is located at -1100, -240 on the top floor of the Erudin Library.
You say, 'Hail, Weltria Ostriss'

Weltria Ostriss says 'Good day, Rcme. I assist in maintaining an accurate collection of historical tomes here in the great library of Erudin. One of our citizens recently escaped the dungeons of the Kobold warrens and tells of a Kobold lore keeper who keeps a collection of scrolls detailing the history of their kind. Are you capable of obtaining those scrolls for our library?'

You say, 'I am capable'

Weltria Ostriss says 'Take this case and return it to me when you have collected all of the scrolls.'

Receive Large Scroll Case.

Combine these 7 scrolls from Lorekeeper Roggik to make the Kobold History Collection:
Rise of King Gkar and Klan Kolbok
The Ascension of Rolfron Zek
The Fall of Kolbok
The Kobold Age of Blood
The Council and the Dwarves
Kobolds in the Age of Scale
The Arrival of Rallos Zek

Hand the Kobold History Collection to Weltria Ostriss

Weltria Ostriss says 'You have my gratitude, Rcme! This will make a valuable addition to our historical volumes and perhaps offer some insight into the workings of Kobold society.'

Your faction standing with Merchants of Erudin got better.
Your faction standing with High Council of Erudin got better.
Your faction standing with High Guard of Erudin got better.
You gain experience!!
You receive 50 platinum from Weltria Ostriss.

You get about 50 platinum, and faction

you people are sad.... so very vad. Think about it from a game programing view. what? they are going to make a 7 slot container? what is wrong with you people? The quest asks for 7 scrolls, people here are talking about how turning in 7 combined scrolls yielded 20-50p a turn in. Why do you people insist on adding confusion and making it more difficult. Yea, its an odd number... so what. your all brainwashed.

Anytime I do a quest, I read the quest, npc, details of level. so on. I actually click the links for the items, I dont post asking what it is, and if I cant find a mob, I click on that mobs name and read.

you people insist on making it more difficult and confusing then ever before. I take what I read fairly lightly. Its honestly a wonder any of you have ever completed a quest.

to all who post valid info and questions thats cool.

I have seen people ask the stats on a weapon *ON* the stats page, with the picture and stats, a screenshot. I see people ask who they turn it into... and so on. do you people not SEE the quest up top? do you just scroll past that? Related creatures, faction, items, reward... its 7 scrolls. 7!!! thats it. take that 8th empty slot and find a creative place to shove it ok?

your the same people that call me for tech support that cant read more then two words at a time. READ, learn, explore. really its ok. the next time I see some **** about the kobald emmasary in this post I will kill you all. ok?


and you know, on a side note... (not a rant) I originally was reading about all this because of the warrens. my rogue is about the right lvl for this stuff. I have to say, as far as old world, these quests rock. Especially for the Eradite paladins. I mean, very unique items and 22-25ish some killer quests and items are obtainable. between this and muglewump. I mean, at far as oldworld, these are sick. You could easily get a EUR/PAL up to 30ish in no time in this area. I am reather impressed. too bad they are not that great.

This quest is pretty great, if you need faction for either side of Paineel or Erudin! Basically you go on a rampage killing all sorts of Kobalds, then go kill the king for his loot if you can, and the faction hit, goto the room next to him for an easy fight with the guy that drops these scrolls, and then go back to the begining of the zone and kill the respawned kobalds. Just keep going in circles checking your faction with the guards outside the warrens when you get bored or take a try at The Mug tadpole guy, (LvL25) stupid guy always gets me with slow at the start of the fight. Hard to solo when you have slow. I think it stacks too. But not 100% sure. But anyhow yeah, great if your gunna be killing kobalds anyhow. And who wouldn't want the free PP? By the time you get the quest done the first time, since the scrolls aren't lore, you'll probably have a lot of extras so doing it again wouldn't be very hard?

I have done both quests. There are 7 scrolls. The item dropped from the Kobold Emmisary in Steamfont is used in the 3 (regent) symbol of quellious. The Emmisary is a level 26 or 27 Shaman, and spawns near the Mino Caves. For more info Contact me on AB as Ikeren.

I did this the other night and just in case I went to Steamfont and got the missionary's scroll. but when I combined the 7 dusty ones and the missionary's scroll it would not combine. So There are still only the 7 thus far.

Oh yeah I got his scroll or whatever it is when I was hunting the Minotaur Hero. And in response to whoever said that thing about the jewelry kit, it is a tradeskill thing. Very few quests give you containers that you don't need to fill up completely to do the quest. One thing
I figure it might be is if you combine the 7 scrolls from the lorekeeper you'll get one item and if you combine it with the 8th scroll you get the real quest that might actually give a useful item. I think i'll be trying to camp this guy now and try combining with the scroll i got from the missionary. After all the scroll that drops off him isn't for any other quest that I know of.

The only reason I can't think that you all thought that there was an 8th one, is because there are 8 slots in the scroll case. That doesn't mean you need that many. A perfect example of that is a jewelers kit. It has 4 slots but you never put in more then 2 items, the jem and the metel bar of choice. I hope this helps.

Just completed this quest. As has already been said there are only 7 scolls. Got 38pp for the quest.

Keep on hunting for that elusive 8th scroll! *snicker* *snicker*

On the top floor of the Erudin Library is a woman erudite named Weltria Ostriss. If you converse with her, she will give you an 8 slot container. There are ONLY seven scrolls to get.
The Mob is Lore Keeper Roggik. Sometimes drops two scrolls at once. Only once did he not drop a dusty scroll. These scrolls are written in elder Tier'Dal but can be deciphered by clicking and re-clicking on the scrolls. Eventually they will form a recognizable word. So keep clicking on them
The Seven Dusty Scrolls start with the words:
#1) As Rallos….
#2) In the time….
#3) Three hundred….
#4) It was during….
#5) The surface….
#6) Brell had….
#7) In the age….
Combine once you get the 7 and give back to Weltria Ostriss.
Received 37pp very little exp and some good faction.

Hope this helps?
Good hunting and God Speed,

Okay...so I am too inexperienced to complete this quest, but HOLY QUEEN OF LOVE!!! I absolutely adore the fact that there is SO much going on in Norrath these days. All the turmoil and strife create opportunities for heroism. GREAT GREEN, HAIRY TROLL TOES!!! Is this a great game or what? Finally, I can get completely absorbed into the screen and forget of every detail of my boring "real" life.

May Erollisi Marr guide you.
