General QuestAsikko wants to give the book he wrote to Gondranc, but the evil Rauta-lehma have it now. He wants you to recover it for him.
STEPS:
1) Collect Asikko's book. Asikko tells you:
"I wrote a book for the man before the betrayal, but it is lost now to the Rauta-lehma in the east. I dare nto go there yet. Will you go to the camp of the traitors and find this book for me?"
From Rusfold, the camp (Fashat Laug) is quite a ways to the east. There are many Rauta-lehma giants (level 30-32) within, so use patience and caution, particularly if you are alone. The book is inside a tent, not too far into camp (9s, 33.8w).
2) Deliver the book to Asikko. Asikko is pleased you found the book, but unhappy it had to be taken and not given freely. He asks you to bring it to Gondranc.
3) Bring Asikko's book to Gondranc.
4) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, Gondranc's Halberd, and you will now be able to take the next quest, Aurochs Mantles. You will also be able to take the quest: Leathery Wings of the Drakes.
