Description
I think I can formulate an elixir that will allow us to more readily decipher the glyphs and language of the silithid and Qiraji! What do I need? Glad you asked! I need brains! More specifically, a brain from each silithid type that inhabit the hives. Bring me brains and Rutgar's work might not be for naught.
In progress
Go play with the monkey, kid. I don't have time for this.
Completion
Outstanding! Don't wander off too far, kid. We might need you to take on another task or two.
