Description
At an impasse of sorts, you know that you will need the book translated into a language you can understand. There certainly are a number of people in the world who could do it; the closest location that might have someone who could, however, is the Kargath outpost in the Badlands. Perhaps that is a good place to start.
Completion
Mighty your class, I know what you are doing out here in the Badlands. I know you seek my gift of tongues. You're after the parts to that necklace you found in Uldaman.
Surprised? Don't be - it's my job to know such things. Instead, let's discuss what you're going to do for a translated journal. Trust me - I'm the only one you'll find that can translate it.
Better still, let me make you a better offer than Dran Droffers is, and it'll let you still complete your deal with them. Interested now, yes?
