Journal

• Lalai has acquired new information regarding the missing Book of Thal.

• Evidence suggests that whoever stole the Book of Thal means to avail himself of the secrets within, leading Lalai to conclude that the thief is a black mage. She speculates that the individual may have attempted to make contact with other black mages, namely your three beastman friends. Proceed to Burgundy Falls in eastern Thanalan and ask Kazagg Chah whether he has had any unusual guests of late.

• Kazagg Chah tells you that he was very recently attacked by a robed man who wielded black magic. Could this be the individual you seek? According to the Amalj'aa, the attacker will not have gotten far. Search for him in the surrounding area.

• You have found a robed man, but he vehemently denies being the one who attacked Kazagg Chah. He suggests that you both pay the Amalj'aa a visit in order to clear up the matter.

• A glance is enough for Kazagg Chah to confirm that the robed man is not his assailant. Introducing himself as Zhai'a Nelhah, a Hearer of Gridania, he informs you that the Seedseer Council has sent him to find a certain black mage. Upon hearing of the Book of Thal, Zhai'a Nelhah believes that he may learn something useful from Lalai, and decides to pay her a visit. Return to Milvaneth Sacrarium in Ul'dah and be present for the meeting.
