Provided item

Oglethorpe's Pledge of Secrecy · given when you accept this quest

Description

Gnome engineering is about engineering theory shaped to serve our needs! Our schemata allow us to make devices that control the world around us; the manual you read covered this. The manual also covered our ages old oath of secrecy on our schemata. Once you become a gnome engineer, that's that. There is no access to goblin engineering at all. If you still want to become a gnome engineer, sign this document pledging life-long secrecy and speak with me again. Think about it carefully, adventurer.

Progress text

If you've signed the document and are ready to hand it to me, then that is that. While I may vehemently disagree with Gnomeregan - especially that fool Tinkmaster Overspark - politically, the Pledge of Secrecy transcends everything else! You must agree to commit a single path and stay true to that path throughout your life.
