Journal
- Pauline at Gabineaux's Bower needs an adventurer to cull the growing anole population, as well as gather one of the scalekin's eggs.
- A growing number of anoles are venturing down from the mountains and disrupting the conjurers' communion with the elementals. Head to Naked Rock, slay three anoles, and collect one of the scalekin's eggs.
- You have thinned the number of anoles and collected one of their eggs. Report to Pauline at Gabineaux's Bower.

Dialogue
Accepting the Quest
Pauline: I hesitate to make such a dangerous, request, but might you assist us in thinning the number of anoles on Naked Rock?
Pauline: In our efforts to commune with the elementals, we conjurers often find ourselves in the area. Of late, however, our meditations have all too frequently been interrupted by unprovoked anole attacks. Truly, the beasts grow more aggressive by the day.
Pauline: Their numbers have continued to grow since the advent of the Seventh Umbral Era, you see, forcing packs of the scalekin to come down from the mountains in search of food. If you could slay a handful of the beasts, that should lessen their need to hunt and also serve as a warning to the anoles to remain within their territory.
Pauline: But I am afraid you must do more than thin the existing population. If we are to truly break this spiraling growth, then we must also target their future offspring. Bring me one of their eggs, and you will have played your part in returning balance to this area of the forest.
Report to Pauline
Pauline: Ah, you have returned. Now might my brothers and sisters continue their meditations undisturbed. You have my thanks.
Pauline: As for the egg, may I ask you to deliver it to Tsubh Khamazom at the Bannock?
Pauline: Anole eggs are both large and filled with nutrients - the perfect meal for a soldier. She will be more than a little pleased to see you, I should imagine.
Delivering the Egg
Tsubh Khamazom: Who goes there! Oh, Adventurer, it's you. Hm? Another delivery?
Tsubh Khamazom: I'm not certain I should be the one to - By Nophica, that's an anole egg! The troops will be glad indeed to see one of these at table! And you say Hearer Pauline sent you on this errand?
Tsubh Khamazom: I hear the anoles are more numerous than ever, yet you appear to have managed the task with your skin intact. Your skill and bravery continue to amaze me, Adventurer,
