Journal

• White Magister
  We have the proof we were looking for - the White Magisters have been excavating the Blackpits in search for something, and have been using the Black Ring as part of their search. We need to get this information to the Paladins.
• Black Ring Ghost
  From the spirit of a Black Ring prisoner, we learned that the White Magisters were using them to search the deepest caverns of the Blackpits for something very important to them. We must find out more.
• Magisters Talking
  Two White Magisters mentioned how members of the Black Ring were being used as part of their operations in the Blackpits. Perhaps we misunderstood? The Black Ring have long been the sworn enemies of the Divine Order... Either way, we will need more proof.
• Sent War Owl
  We dispatched a war owl with details of the Magisters' activities in the Blackpits. We should return to the Paladins when we have the opportunity.
• Saved All Blackring
  We saved a group of Black Ring prisoners from being executed by the Magisters.
• Saved Blackring
  We saved some Black Ring prisoners from being executed by the Magisters. Not all of them survived, however.
• Enter Black Pits
  We entered the Blackpits. There was no sign of White Magisters - only Voidwoken and carnage.
• Magister Dock
  We learned that the docks are restricted - even to the red-cloaked Magisters. We ought to try and infiltrate this area.
• Enter Oilrig
  We have entered a heavily-guarded area. Whatever it is that the White Magisters are up to, we must be getting closer to it.
• Met Jonathan
  We encountered a White Magister, Jonathan, but didn't learn anything about their activities in the area. We must continue our search.
• Enter Docks
  We have approached the docks, which are defended by Shriekers. We ought to look around - carefully.
• Told Paladin
  We told the Paladins about the Magisters' activities in the Blackpits, and their involvement with the Black Ring.
• Finished
  We did as the Paladins asked, and received our reward.
• Paladin Attack
  The Paladins were attacked by Voidwoken as we returned for our reward. We should help them if we want to collect our reward.
• Paladin Won
  The Paladins defeated the Voidwoken. We should talk to their leader, Paladin Thom Hardwin.
• Paladin Dead
  Paladin Thom Hardwin is dead. It looks like we won't be able to collect our reward from him.
• Close Left R C
  We have sailed on from Reaper's Coast without having completed the Paladins' task.
