The Almanac

Y'Berion needs a special book to better understand the focus stone and its powers.

4 objectives1 quest item3 locationsReward: Almanac

Y'Berion wants the Almanac, an old book hidden away in a goblin cave, and Talas knows the way. You start in the Swamp Camp, head to the Old Camp to pick up Talas and hear Milton out, then follow Talas to the cave and fight through the goblins to the book.

Before You Start

The goblins can be rough if you are under-leveled, so come ready and bring light for the cave.

  • Healing potions.
  • Food.
  • A decent weapon.
  • Good armor if you have it.
  • Torches for the cave.

If the goblins are giving you trouble, train your combat with Diego before you start.

Find Talas at the Old Camp

From the Swamp Camp, make your way to the Old Camp and head through it toward the main castle entrance. Talas is near the entrance. Talk to him and run through everything he has to say.

Speak to Milton in the Castle

Go into the castle, head left, and find Milton. Exhaust his dialogue, then leave the castle again.

Back to Talas

Outside, talk to Talas a second time. He agrees to take you to the book, so follow him.

Follow Talas to the Goblin Cave

Talas leads you across the bridge and on to the cave where the goblins are. Steady yourself before you go in, since the goblins hit hard and you do not want to blunder into a crowd of them.

Fight Through the Goblins

Inside, you fight your way through groups of goblins.

  • Take it slow and avoid pulling too many at once.
  • Loot the goblins as you clear them.
  • Their weapons are worth trying, since they hit well for this stage of the game.
  • Check the side areas for chests and loot.
The Drop and the Last Goblins

Eventually you reach a drop-down. Once you are down, hug the left side. This last stretch is thick with goblins.

Try to draw the goblins into the fiery patch nearby and fight them there. It thins the crowd for you.

The Almanac Behind the Decorated Door

With the goblins cleared, head for the decorated door, open the latch, and go in. The chest is at the back of the room, so open it and take everything. The Almanac is what you came for, but loot the rest too.

Back to Talas and the Swamp Camp

Leave the room and work your way back out through the cave, picking up any torches or items you dropped. Find Talas outside and he takes you back to the Swamp Camp. There, speak to Y'Berion and Cor Kalom and run their dialogue out to finish the quest.
