Description

Droffers and Son Salvage aren't smart enough to restore the magic in the necklace, but I am. All I want to do is study the necklace so I can learn to make them myself. To do that, I will need your necklace. Let me borrow it, and in exchange for the time I get to study it I will translate the journal for you. While you are searching for the gems, I should have enough time to learn what I need to. It's a simple deal, and no one else will be the wiser. Whatcha wanna do?

Completion text

You know a good deal when you see one - I knew I could count on you. It will be just a moment while I cast a spell to quickly translate the human tongue into a form you will understand. I am a troll of my word; ask anyone in the Horde about Jarkal Mossmeld. Now, let's get this started...
