Must be Apprehensive to Dark Bargainers

Find Lokar To`Biath in the library of the 3rd Gate at +895, -1245. Responded to hails as an indifferent agnostic DE enchanter.

You say, 'Hail, Lokar To`Biath.'

Lokar To`Biath says, 'I am the Scribe of Innoruuk. If you do not have business with me, begone!'

You say, 'Are you a Scribe of Dal?'

Lokar To`Biath says 'The Scribes of Dal? All of them are long since [dead].. or at least most would say that.'

You say, 'Why are they Dead?'

Lokar To`Biath says 'Perhaps, perhaps not. I cannot remember, but perhaps Innoruuk would help me remember should you tithe him a bottle of red wine from the Blind Fish.'

Give him a Red Wine (up to 4 unstacked). It can be from anywhere, not just the Blind Fish. The nearest bar might be the Cuisine Excelsior, which is also conveniently devoid of hostile patrons.

Lokar To`Biath says 'Ah, yes, let me pray to our god.. Yes, Innoruuk has given me wisdom. A Scribe of Dal still exists, disguised as a barkeep in the Blind Fish. This information will not help you though, for she has sworn a [vow] of silence and will not speak of the Dal.'

Your faction standing with Dreadguard Outer got better. (+5)
Your faction standing with Dreadguard Inner got better. (+5)
Your faction standing with Dark Bargainers got better. (+10)

You gain experience!!

Note: This is one of the best quests to gain faction with the Dark Bargainers (Neriak Residents) and with Dreadguard Outer and Dreadguard Inner as it boosts the factions without giving you faction loss with anyone else. 151 turn-ins will take an Iksar Necromancer or Shadow Knight from scowling to dubious with the Neriak guards. It took between 401 and 460 turn-ins to get an Iksar Monk to dubious, without any other faction work.
