A Certain Tome

A Certain Tome is a Witch Coven quest available in . The Agent is tasked with obtaining a book from a contact for the benefit of the Coven.
==Background==
After finding one of the fourteen Witch Covens within the Iliac Bay, the Agent is asked to undertake a quest for the Coven to receive a reward, and boost their reputation with the Coven.
==Objectives==
*Speak with the Beldam at a Witch Coven.
*Journey to the town specified and find the Coven's contact.
**Speak with the contact to obtain the book.
*Escape from the "guard" and return to the Beldam before the time limit expires.
==Walkthrough==
When asking for a quest from the Beldam of one of the Iliac Bay's Witch Covens, the Agent will be tasked with obtaining a "certain rare tome" for the Coven. This book has been stolen from somewhere in the region by one of the Coven's contacts, and is holding onto the book for them. The Agent is therefore tasked with delivering the tome from the contact to the Coven.
===Prohibitive Knowledge===
With that, the Agent is sent to meet the contact, who will be found in the building specified by the Beldam in the aforementioned town. The contact will hand the Agent the book the moment they speak with them, stating:
With that, a knight will appear, along with someone shouting "Stop! Thief!" The Agent must then escape, regardless of whether they fight the knight or not, before returning the Beldam before the time limit expires to complete the quest.
==Rewards==
The Agent will receive a random Enchanted Item from the Beldam for successfully completing the quest, as well as a boost in reputation with that specific Coven.
Conversely, failing the quest will see the Agent lose reputation with the Coven:
Success 	Success
Faction 	Reputation
Witch Coven	+5
Failure 	Failure
Faction 	Reputation
Witch Coven	-2
