Description
The Prophecy of Mosh'aru speaks of an ancient egg. It is a relic of a time when trolls ruled vast empires, and it has the power to hold the essence of Hakkar. It may be the only way to keep our world safe from his evil.
Bring me the ancient egg, your name. It is said to lay hidden deep within Jintha'Alor in the Hinterlands, in a cave behind the amphitheater at the top of the city.
In progress
Do you have the ancient egg? I sense great forces stirring, and I fear that time grows short.
Completion
Ah, you have the egg! I bow to you, your name. Your strength and bravery will be long remembered.
