Tome of the Cabal

It will take more than a simple summoning circle to bring forth a felhunter for you to challenge. My three acolytes and I will assist in creating the magic circles. You require a copy of the Tome of the Cabal, which has been lost to us for some time. It was written by the first group of warlocks to summon a felhunter unaided. Perhaps Krom Stoutarm can help you with this. An itinerant warlock these days, he spends his days hoarding ancient texts and skulking about the library in Ironforge.

Tome of the Cabal? Hmm... sounds familiar. I've never seen it here before, though--and believe me, I remember every book I read. Hmm... Ah, yes! I have seen references to it in library cataloguing books.

It was lost, but there's some idea as to where it might be found. There was only one copy ever made and it was vandalized at some point, a large portion of it ripped from the binding. Rumor has it that it somehow passed into the hands of the centaur of Thousand Needles. The rest was lost off the coast west of Southshore, where it was to be transported to Menethil Harbor by boat. It never arrived. In exchange for this knowledge, all I ask is that if you find it, bring it to me to see.

Fantastic! Now I may join the ranks of the few that have spied its contents. I can't wait to further peruse this text. This is a great day, <name>! If you will just allow me to glance at it before you leave. I'm sure that Strahad will be willing to send me a copy.

Well, ah, it's hard to let it go. But you found it, and you have more important things to do with it, of course. Just, please, be sure to mention to Strahad that I wanted a copy. While you were out, he sent a message for you. He wanted me to tell you that for his acolytes to assist with the summoning, you'll have to acquire three rods of channeling. He might not know where to find them, but I do! They were last used by the orcs of the Dragonmaw clan in the Wetlands. I'd check their spellcasters!

Well done! The Tome of the Cabal and three pristine--slightly scratched, I suppose--rods of channeling. This will be interesting. It's been some time since a young warlock took on a felhunter to make his own.
