Quest text

What the quest giver says.

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

‹name›, have you heard of the nightmare lord, Xavius, whose shade haunts Darkheart Thicket? I have heard that this shade is sometimes seen wearing a colorless shroud. This shroud is steeped in powerful magic and the wisp will draw it out for you. If you can fight the shade, take the shroud, and use your skills to dye it, I will show you how to work wonders!
