Found in the Cemetery of the Forsaken in Act I[e]
Part Text Found on Quest
1 When King Leoric came to court, he brought many nobles with him. And nobles, oddly enough, want noble crypts. So I showed up with my shovel, thinking to make an easy profit by digging a few holes. Ha! There's no stopping their demands around here! Now I eat, sleep, and breathe dirt, it seems. -- Darris the Gravedigger Any



Tristram Fields

Found in the Fields of Misery in Act I on the corpse of a slain traveller.[e]
Part Text Found on Quest
1 The Tristram fields are fair lands, fertile and temperate. Superstitious farmers kept away from them for quite a while after the fall of Old Tristram, but time has persuaded them to abandon these ridiculous notions and take up the hoe and plow once more. Now they supply crops to both New Tristram and Wortham. -- Abd al-Hazir]] Darris the Gravedigger Any

Found in the Caverns of Araneae in a Dusty Bag[e]
Part Text Found on Quest
1 Chancellor Eamon, It is of utmost importance that we secure my manor from the traitorous rabble in Tristram. The caves to the east are too close to my land!

1 Royal Guard, With great pain, I must admit that our king is no longer able to seperate reason from madness.
