As a bitter and downhearted person, Meogar will be unwilling to reveal the reasons of his miserable condition,apart from mentioning a man named [[Enderal:Golfur Silverman |Golfur]].

[[Enderal:Golfur Silverman|Golfur]] will be comfortably standing in one of the stalls in [[Enderal:Ark, Marketplace|Ark, Marketplace]]. Inform the seller that you want to take a look at his wares and in one of the inventory's section (Other) you will notice an item named '''Ironford's Lute'''. Purchase the Lute. The quest log will be updated with the information that now you need to bring the Lute back to its owner, Meogar Ironford.
You can begin this quest by talking with Meogar Ironford in [[Enderal:Ark]]'s Foreign Quarter.
+
====Bring the Lute Back to Meogar====
 +
The position of the balcksmith will be marked by the quest marker. On seeing the Lute, Meogar will open up and start to talk more extensively about himself and why he was  so bad-tempered before. He confesses that his life was clouded by the  unexpected '''death of his beloved daughter''', Bella, who was so talented that she was predicted to become a bard one day, as she had already written some pieces of poetry. The recovered Lute was infinitely precious to him, something that reminded him of his lost daughter.And yet, when Meogar was not able to pay his debts to [[Enderal:Golfur Silverman|Golfur]] due to being ambushed by bandits and robbed of his belongings, Golfur cared nothing for the Meogar's bereavement and blackmailed him to force him to sell the Lute, which was the reason for Meogar's sheer misery.
 +
====The First Inscription:The Lute====
 +
The grieving father mentions his daughter's '''casket''', a kind of a treasure chest, in which Bella kept all her songs. Unfortunately, to his utter dismay, the casket is securely locked, and only Bella knew how to open the chest. The thing is, the bolts of the casket have to be opened in a certain order. As you you take a closer look at the Lute, you will notice that there is an inscription carved on the back of the Lute and it says: "left, right, left, down". Thus the inscription revelas the order in which the bolts should be pushed. The father points out there are still two inscriptions missing. He does know where to the rest of the clues are hidden, but he lacks the time to take the matters into his hands. If you are still willing to help Meogar, he will show you where to find the second and third clue.
  
===Recover the lute===

====The Second Inscription: Ark's Library====
You can find Golfur Silverman in the Ark's Marketplace, buy the lute from him and go back to Meogar.
+

 +
The second inscription can be found quite quickly and almost effortlessly. It is enough to find the nearest [[Enderal:Signpost|Signposts]] and teleport yourself to [[Enderal:Ark, Nobles Quarters|Nobles Quarters]]. When you are at the Nobles Quarters, search for an imposing bulding, the [[Enderal:Library|Library]]. Inside the Library, the quest marker will show the exact location of the book, which will be lying on a table in the main hall, as shown in the gallery. The inscription on the '''"Moonshine Ballads"''' says: right, down, left, up.
  
===The first and second hint===
+
===Cave at the King's Bay===
Meogar will tell you about his daughter and the box she left behind. This section is pretty straightforward. Following the quest marker you'll find both hints in no time.
+
====Find the Cave====
 +
The '''Cave at the King's Bay''' is located in the [[Enderal:Regions#King.27s_Mountain_Pass|King's Mountain Pass]] in Enderal. Go on foot or use one of the [[Enderal:Signpost|Signposts]] to teleport to [[Enderal:Ark, Harbor|Ark,Harbor]]. When in the '''Harbor''', you will discover that  the main road in the harbor will finally lead to an '''archway''' offering a view over some wilderness, to the east. Following this path you will reach [[Enderal:Cave at the King's Bay|Cave in the King's Bay]], and only a few stray Hungry Wolves will be trying to hinder your journey into the cave.

Journal Entries

Initial
The locksmith Meogar Ironford seems to be burdened with something. While talking with him he mentioned that a certain "Golfur" has proven that money is all that counts for him in the end. Perhaps I should investigate what this monger did?
After you brought the lute to Meogar
Bella, the daughter of Meogar Ironford who is a locksmith in Ark, recently died of flesh maggots and the only thing she left behind was a locked strongbox - which according to Meogar contains songs and poems of Bella. Unfortunately the box has a special lock which can only be opened by operating the bolts in a certain order. Meogar thinks that Bella - similar like on the back of her lute - made some notes about that order for herself.
After finding both hints
Meogar Ironford was right - Bella left in both the calve close to the harbor as well as the book of poems hints to the order. I should show these hints to him.
Final
With my help Meogar succeeded in opening the box and got the poems.
