Command of the Gnomish language is required to start or complete this quest.

Speak to Rosealyn at -582, 173, 946 within Gnomeland Security Headquarters in Steamfont Mountains to begin this quest.

Rosealyn, Professor Whatzzit's companion at Gnomeland Security in Steamfont Mountains, has lost all of the pages to the Professor's most recent book before it could be bound. I promised her that I'd try to help recover all the pages to "The Minds of Meldrath, a Study of the Infamous Gnome."

  • Collect eight pages, two from each location (/locs can vary):
    • Moors of Ykesha at Dropship Landing Zone: 1,820, 453, 889 , 1,789, 453, 867
    • Gorowyn by the Tinkerfest portal: 2,543, 10, 1,234 , 2,553, 9, 1,215 , 2,561, 10, 1,258

    • (evil align) East Freeport by the Tinkerfest portal: need locations
  • Return to Rosealyn in Steamfont

  • Speak to Kripkie Clatterpyle at -962, 157, 725
  • Kill the papernado
  • Speak to Kripkie again
  • Return to Rosealyn to complete the quest

Rosealyn, Professor Whatzzit's companion, was very grateful for my help recovering the pages to "The Minds of Meldrath, a Study of the Infamous Gnome" and for my help in getting it bound into a book. She even let me keep a copy of it!

You say to Rosealyn, "What seems to be the matter?"
Rosealyn says to you, "The good professor entrusted me with his most recent work, a book entitled The Minds of Meldrath, but I seem to have lost eight of the pages before I could get the book bound!"
You say to Rosealyn, "Do you know where you lost them?"
Rosealyn says to you, "Well, I was traveling about, visiting all of the different Tinkerfest celebratory locations... They could be at any one of them!"
You say to Rosealyn, "I can search the many celebration areas for you, Rosealyn."
Rosealyn says to you, "You can!? That would be so sweet of you, Cyliena! I would really appreciate it!"
You say to Rosealyn, "I'll be back with as many of the pages as I can find."

You say, "Hail, Rosealyn"
Rosealyn says to you, "You found all of the missing pages, Cyliena! That is wonderful!"
You say to Rosealyn, "Now, just don't lose them again."
Rosealyn says to you, "Right! I need to get this book bound, and quick! The problem is, not just anyone can bind it. The cover is plated. It will take a Tinkerer book binder."
You say to Rosealyn, "Do you know of one?"
Rosealyn says to you, "Yes, Kripkie Clatterpyle. He is at the Frugrin Observatory, north-east of here."
You say to Rosealyn, "I'll go get it bound by him."
Rosealyn says to you, "That is wonderful! Take the mountain pass directly East from Mad Mattie, below. It will guide you safely to the observatory."
You say to Rosealyn, "Thanks for the direction. I'll find my way."

You have discovered Frugrin Observatory.
You say, "Hail, Kripkie Clatterpyle"
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "What have we here? What brings you to the Frugrin Observatory on these lively days?"
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "Rosealyn, Professor Andipholitz Whatzzit's companion. She wants his latest book bound before she loses the pages, again."
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "Oh, she's in luck! I've been doing some improvements to my book-o-matic machine, here. It'll bind the pages to the plated cover in no time!"
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "That'll be perfect."
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "Just got to start it with a bit of magic, of course!"
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "What? Uh, oh!"

The magic was too much! A papernado has been created!
You have killed a papernado.
You gain 120 XP plus 330 XP from bonuses!
You gain 32 XP for defeating the encounter plus 87 XP from bonuses!

You say, "Hail, Kripkie Clatterpyle"
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "Huh... Maybe I should have given that magical improvement the 'ole once over before I attempted it?"
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "You hadn't tested it, yet?"
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "Well, you can't make a clockwork without breaking a few legs, I always say. Anyway, now I can bind your book. Of this, I am certain!"
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "Umm... okay."
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "..."
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "So far, so good."
Kripkie Clatterpyle says to you, "There we have it! A perfectly tinker-bound book written by Professor Andipholitz Whatzzit."
You say to Kripkie Clatterpyle, "Perfect, I'll get this back to Rosealyn."

You say, "Hail, Rosealyn"
Rosealyn says to you, "You're back! Was Clatterpyle able to bind the Professor's book?"
You say to Rosealyn, "He was... Though, not without some difficulty."
Rosealyn says to you, "Nothing you couldn't rise to the challenge of, clearly! Thank you, ever so much, Cyliena!"
You say to Rosealyn, "You're welcome."
You gain 51 Alternate Advancement experience by completing a quest!
You gain 7200 XP!
