A group of enslaved [[Gnome|deep gnomes]] under the whip of [[Duergar]] are trying to free a True Soul from a cave-in near the main room of the [[Grymforge]]. To save him, the gnomes tell you to go find [[Philomeen]], a runaway gnome in possession of an explosive capable of destroying the rubble. | |||

Regardless of his status, the player will receive a {{SmIconLink|Broken Moonlantern Icon.png|Broken Moonlantern}}, a precursor to a crucial item needed to travel through the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]] in order to get to [[Moonrise Towers]]. | Regardless of his status, the player will receive a {{SmIconLink|Broken Moonlantern Icon.png|Broken Moonlantern}}, a precursor to a crucial item needed to travel through the [[Shadow-Cursed Lands]] in order to get to [[Moonrise Towers]]. Unfortunately there is no way to fix this lantern before going to the Moonrise Towers, rendering this item useless, as you will find a working moonlantern before you get a chance to fix this one. | ||
