Knowledge in the Deeps

Bring the Lorgalis Manuscript to Gerrig Bonegrip in the Forlorn Cavern in Ironforge.
Lorgalis Manuscript

Description

As you might know, I collect lore. Old lore. Powerful lore. Lore that opens doorways, and lore that can awaken Those Who Sleep.

There are rumors of an old piece of lore, the Lorgalis Manuscript, at the bottom of Blackfathom Deeps in Ashenvale. That place is the old dwelling of long-dead elves. Elves who held great knowledge before their city fell to ruin.

Search Blackfathom Deeps for the manuscript. Do this, and I will not forget it. Not even after ... the end days.

Reward

You will receive:
Sustaining Ring

Progress

The journey to Ashenvale is long, and your task is not easy. But if you get me the manuscript, <name>...then your reward will be great.

Completion

You found the manuscript! What a joyous day this is! Copies will be made and distributed, and the ancient knowledge of Lorgalis will finally be known to my brothers and sisters!

Your service to us is more than you know, <name>. But I hope that this gift shows you the gratitude we extend to our allies.

Gains

Upon completion of quests, get:
  • 275 experience (16 50 at max. level)
  • 75 Reputation with Ironforge

This is located in a specific chest. The chest is just to your right as you enter the room with turtles. It is under the water in the alcove just to the right on the North end. There are a few single pull naga which must be killed.

You're looking for a grey Pitted Iron Chest (https://vanillawowdb.com/?object=13949 https://vanillawowdb.com/?object=13949) underwater in the northern leg of the big Pool of Ask'ar cave. It's where Ghamoo-ra the 25 elite turtle sits on the island in the middle. Inside the chest is the Lorgalis Manuscript that you need for the quest.

This quest DOES count toward the https://vanillawowdb.com/?achievement=1678 Loremaster of Kalimdor achievement.

On a side note, this chest does not track using the 'Find Treasure' dwarven racial.

You would not be eligible for this quest if you have the quest ""The Powers Below"" (https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=968 https://vanillawowdb.com/?quest=968) in your quest log. It's an optional prerequisite for this quest. I didn't know this and I was trying to get the quest shared but it said Not Eligible. So, if you want to get this quest shared without travelling a long way to IF to turn it in first, you need to abandon ""The Powers Below"".

This page reports that you receive 18 reputation towards all factions, which is incorrect. At 80 I received 75 rep.

If you haven't figured this out, or read the Manuscript, Bonegrip is talking about the Old Gods when he mentions the ""Sleeping Ones"". Is that 1 strength and 4 spirit REALLY worth helping loose Yogg'Saron upon the world?

At level 34 I was able to slip through most of the mobs to get to this without a group, as I outleveled it. The two naga in front of it will likely aggro, however.

Contrary to what the red text at the top of the page says, you can still get this quest and turn it in, the quest giver and receiver are inside the instance, just past where you zone in.
