Quest text

What the quest giver says.

‹name›, ‹class› and ‹race› stand for your character’s.

<The Gnomecorder crackles with energy. You can hear Lieutenant Paulson on the other end.> Stupid gnome junk... Is ANYBODY there? ‹name›, are you there? Maybe he's dead. Listen, if you can still hear me, we just got word that a Horde master assassin is in the mines, directing the other assassins. Find her, kill her, report back to me. Paulson, out.
