Objectives

Acquire the Broken Goggles.

Description

This unfortunate explorer has clearly suffered a bit of bad luck in the recent past.

Prudence dictates that you perform the unenviable task of searching the corpse for clues that might shed light on your surroundings...

Progress

Any news, <name>?

Completion

Odd...

It looks as if someone used gemstones as lenses.

I should be able to fix them without too much trouble.

Rewards

You will receive:

• 6 50
• 43900 XP

Notes

The Schnottz Scout can be found by the southern hieroglyph on the west side of the chamber. Also pick up Be Prepared from the Decrepit Skeleton on the east side of the chamber, near the other southern hieroglyph.

Interact with the scout again:

After a quick assessment, you determine that this fellow has expired within the last several hours.

Take the scout's Journal.
Take the scout's spectacles.

The goggles are there to complete the quest, but take the  [Scout's Journal] for some history of the Scout and spectacles.
