Quest text

What the quest giver says.

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

After reducing the basilisk blood out of the elixir, I've uncovered an unusual precipitate. It appears to be a blue crystal of some sort... <Brother Nimetz consults his notes.> It's not a singing blue crystal... not a pulsing blue shard... <He flips forward a few pages.> ... not a piece of the Mind's Eye. Nope, this isn't something we've seen before in Stranglethorn. If anyone has any more of this substance, I want it. Check the high-ranking Kurzen troops, in the back of their cave.
