A Strange Historian

A level 56 elite quest for both factions, from level 50.

Unchanged in Forever as far as is known: the text, objectives and rewards below are Classic’s.

Quest Objectives

Bring Joseph's Wedding Ring to Chromie.

Joseph's Wedding RingJoseph Redpath's Monument

Description

I wish Joseph could again be with his daughter, but it cannot be so. His soul was twisted by the Scourge, and he became a monster. Oh, he is doomed!

But perhaps we can change his fate.

Search the graves outside for Joseph's monument. His body's not there, for it was trampled and destroyed years ago, but under the monument is his wedding ring. Take that ring to Chromie... a strange gnome with very strange powers.

Chromie is staying in the ruined inn at the northwest corner of Andorhal.

Rewards

Experience: 4,350

When you come back

There is something timely about your visit. You're not from the future, are you?

When you hand it in

What is this? A wedding ring? Let me see...

Ah! This ring was once on the hand of a great man, but there is much tragedy in that man's past.

Are you here to help him? It's far too late for him now... but perhaps we can help him in the past!
