Tainted Memorandum

Tainted Memorandum is an introductory quest for fledgling gnome warlocks taking their first steps in Coldridge Valley. Passed quietly through Sten Stoutarm, the missive summons the neophyte to the shadows of Anvilmar to meet Alamar Grimm, who preaches self-reliance through dark power rather than trust in their dwarven hosts.

While you were helping me out, this memorandum was given to me to pass on to you. Take some time to read it when you have a chance. I'm thinkin' it came from the warlock trainer Alamar. Take a gander at it and go find him inside Anvilmar when you've a chance.

And watch yerself, friend, your kind ain't too trusted 'round these parts.

Wonderful! You got my memorandum obviously.

Ignore the fools around you, friend. The Holy Light?! The sword and shield?! These aren't paths for ones as open minded as us. Look at what "normal" magic did to our home. Coupled with those damned tinkerers, our race almost became extinct. And now we have to rely on the dwarves—they'd rather spend time allying with humans than help us rebuild our own home. We're like second-class citizens. Have you seen the way they look at us?

But none of that matters. What matters is that you've seen your own Holy Light! You know where power truly comes from. You realize that having our own allies is much more... Prudent. Special allies. Allies that, no matter the task, will obey till their last breath.

And that's where I come in, friend. I can train you in the beginnings of those special powers. Seek me out often and I will do what I can to teach you more spells.
