Master Raska says 'Then you shall perform the first rite. Take this pack. To the Outlands you will go. You will fill and combine the pack with one of each of the following - Goblin Scout Beads, a Large Scorpion Pincer, a froglok skipper's skipping stone and a Sabertooth Cub Canine. Return the full first rite pack and you shall prove yourself a monk.'

Master Raska says 'Go forth to the outer gates and seek out the Iksar bandits. They have refused to bow to the will of the empire and shall pay dearly for their traitorous ways.
