==Quest Four: [[Lam Esen's Tome (quest)|Lam Esen's Tome]]==

[[Image:Quests-a3-q4.gif|right]]
* '''Quest Name:''' Lam Esen's Tome
* '''Triggered by:''' Completing Quest Two, or entering the [[Ruined Temple]]
* '''Given by: '''Alkor
* '''Location: '''[[Ruined Temple]] in the [[Kurast Bazaar]]
* '''Rewards: '''Five stat points
* '''Quest Priority:''' Not required, but most do it to get the bonus stat points.

Alkor will tell you that there is a special book written long ago by a sage known as Lam Esen that may hold valuable information about how to battle the evil that is now engulfing the land. You must recover it.

This quest is optional, and can be quite dangerous, but has a nice reward. The game tells you to search the temples beneath the [[Kurast Bazaar]], [[Upper Kurast]] and The [[Kurast Causeway]]. You don't need to do this, the temple with the book is always the [[Ruined Temple]], and it's always in the [[Kurast Bazaar]]. There are two temples in the Bazaar, one is the [[Disused Fane]], and the other is the [[Ruined Temple]]. You'll see the name once you click the stairs, and you need only enter the [[Ruined Temple]].

The book will be inside it, past a Super Unique Corrupted Rogue boss [[Sarina the Battlemaid]]. She is always extra fast, and there will be a lot of other monsters in the temple, and usually at least one other random boss monster, all in a very small area, so be careful.

Tips: Know the correct [[Ruined Temple]], in [[Kurast Bazaar]], the others aren't necessary to do. The temple (and the other five in the area) are very full of monsters and worth a lot of experience and potential items, but they are very dangerous owing to the cramped nature of them. You can quite often get a deadly stair trap where there will be a boss monster pack on the screen when you enter, and you'll be totally swarmed and perhaps die before the level even finishes loading. Do not do this quest with a Hardcore character unless you have minions to protect you or are feeling very lucky. The quest isn't hard if you don't get swarmed at the entrance, but you never know if you will or not. Party with a Necromancer or a Druid, or at least get some huge hit points character like a Barb or a Druid to go down first. Even then, you can be in Act Four soon, with more monsters and better items and experience, so it's not really worth the risk.

There are almost always Meteor-firing Dark Lords in the Ruined Temple, so be sure your fire resistance is up to the task.

You don't need to kill anything in the [[Ruined Temple]], just get the book and return it to [[Alkor]], but it's very cramped down there, so teleporting around with a Sorceress to get the book and leave is quite dangerous.
