First, the stack of books are by the entrance by mushrooms in the Ruins of Varsoon. Second, the skelly is in Jail area on right side of spider pit. Third, the quest is asking for the originator of the book. This is contradictory to the whole quest... book says, "Hiding the necklace in my stomach", you find the necklace, which would be the author of the book... I've gone to 2 menders in FP, the mentioned mender in Willow Wood and Neriak; none success in updating quest.
Please help, is this quest Completable or not due to design flaw!
Thanks!

Yeha, looks like this quest has had a lot of problems. the comment just below yours, from Feb, 2008 says:
Try that, and please post back if it works. I'll see what I can do to clean this up.

you can turn this in to the Mender inside of Neriak. Her name is Rile D'Everhirr. Same price, 30 silver. So if you're of Evil Alignment there ya go

Thank you for your reply.
Unfortunately the mender in Neriak does not work either. I tried all the mentioned ideas in previous posts and none updated.
Thanks for your help.

Let's try something simple. Have you examined the ash covered necklace?
7 posts
Doh! Was following the outline above, didn't say to examine necklace. It worked... Updated with new quest, and completed with Mender in Willow Wood. Tried Freeport mender... which was unsuccessful. Didn't try Neriak mender.
Thanks for your help!!

So glad we got that straighted out! Turns out at some point they split it into two quest, and yeah, our old write up missed that crucial piece of data.
Thanks for sticking with us :)

I found out tonight, totally by accident, as I was planning on taking this into Willow Wood for the turn in that you can turn this in to the Mender inside of Neriak. Her name is Rile D'Everhirr. Same price, 30 silver. So if you're of Evil Alignment there ya go. You might even possibly be able to take it to whatever your hometown's Mender is. But I turned it in to Rile just this evening. :)

Yes, it is still in the game. I picked up the books today. They were not near the stairs, but they were at the other end of that corridor, next to a couple of small mushrooms.
Btw, the part you have to take the necklace back to the Willow Wood is actually a new quest. It is called "Ash Covered Necklace", lvl 27, starting zone RoV.

I got this today after I finished the repeatable quest Keeping the Topside safe countless times and it finally changed to Surface Assault.
Even though I had searched high and low for this quest starter and was there at server start numerous times as the only one in the zone, it didn't pop up until I had Surface Assault in my log and than it spawned immediately at zone in.

After you find the necklace, you actually get a second quest from it called "Ash Covered Necklace" This is the quest to take the necklace to Mossclean in the Willow Wood.

Just to let people know that I zoned into Varsoom and the books were right behind the stairs under the big mushroom. You can start the quest - now I will see if it can be finished.

I'm not sure about the name for this quest... I received it in May 2005, and it was called "The Ash-Covered Necklace". I just this minute completed it by turning it in to Mender Mossclean. And I'm from Freeport. They fixed it so Freeport players could complete it several LU ago, and I just now got around to WW. Maybe when they did that they changed the name of the quest... but for me it was called ash-covered necklace. I had to pay her 30sp and the reward listed is the same. It has essentially the same stats now as those listed above, but I'll update the reward notes for the correct stats though.

This quest is broken once again. Mossclean will not accept the necklace.

Peeps ceratin about the loc and does anyone know the timer? Book never seems to spawn, camped for ages...

I found the book at -274.2,0,-28.7

I am having difficulty finding this quest - I have checked the entrance tunnel many times, including after a server reset, but can never seem to see the book.
I'd appreciate if somebody could post the actual location of the book spawn - just to be sure I am looking in the right place.

Red Skeleton is located in Varsoon where Halfling is imprisoned. Book is easiest to find after server reset.

Got book. Can't find "reddish skeleton" in jail area. Is this the area with the 2 centaurs and a lion?
Anonymous
The book seems to be on a timer. I too could not find the stack for quite a while -- then I died. When I entered the zone again, there the stack was, under the mushrooms forward from the ladder. When I clicked on the stack and received the quest, the stack disappeared.

Is this quest broken? I have looked and looked cannot see any books near exit ladder.

Once you pick up the stack of books you must head to the prison that has people chained up. You click on one of the redish skeletons in there and you get a necklace... then you head to willow wood to the mender there. His name is coolsomething. He'll fix the necklace you found for 30 silver... you get a black pearl necklace. 31 mit, 5int 2sta 2 str 16h 16pow 60cold 40h 100poison

Near the entrance of the Ruins of Varsoon I found a journal purposely abandoned by a very unfortunate adventurer. By the condition of the journal it appears to have been left here a while ago. I have little faith that the author of this journal is still alive, but while here with in the Ruins of Varsoon I will keep an eye out for this misfortunate adventurer.
I've found the corpse of someone whom quite possible was the author of the journal.I may have found the author of the journal. There was an old necklace within the remains of the corpse.
