Quest text (Classic reference)
Greetings, adventurer. I am Conservator Ilthalaine. My purpose in Shadowglen is to ensure that the balance of nature is maintained.
The spring rains were particularly heavy this year, causing some of the forest's beasts to flourish while others suffered.
Unfortunately, the nightsaber and thistle boar populations grew too large. Shadowglen can only produce so much food for the beasts. Journey forth, young class, and thin the boar and saber populations so that nature's harmony will be preserved.
