Nyroth / Jaime the Wandering Explorer (Forgotten Hollow (deep tunnels))
Nyroth is trying to Arcforge a protection scroll using
rot-steeped catalysts. Maybe he needs some help venturing
deeper into the dark tunnels to hunt the corrupted
creatures for materials.
When The Rot swallows Nyroth's forging fire, he realizes
the sickness is a LIVING MALICE. He asks you to take the
scorched scroll to Jaime the Wandering Explorer - an
alchemist who might explain why the Arcforging machinery
failed.

Nyroth's arc is the deep Arcforging lore
chain. Nyroth is one of the few NPCs in the
Forgotten Hollow who explicitly practices Arcforging -
the scroll crafting profession
documented in the
Arcforging Kit page. This chain reveals HOW
Arcforging actually works when it interacts with
cursed materials.

THE Arcforging + Malice reveal
This chain is essential Classic World Arcforging
lore. Key facts:
Arcforging can be corrupted. The
living malice in the tunnels overpowers Nyroth's
forge. This is Classic World's first documented
case of Arcforging failure.
Alchemy > Arcforging in some cases.
Jaime uses alchemy (not Arcforging) to analyze the
scorched scroll. This implies there are TWO magical
disciplines in Classic World - Arcforging (scroll
crafting) and Alchemy (analysis / potion / material
transformation).
Cross-narrative implication: Jaime the
Wandering Explorer might be the Classic World equivalent
of an Alchemy master. His NPC name "Wandering Explorer"
suggests he moves between zones - possibly he's the
bridge between Forgotten Hollow, Ossyria continent, and
other future crafting content.
Where the tunnels are
The "dark tunnels" are Forgotten Hollow's sub-zones
accessed from Zelya's cave map. Corrupted mob density
L40-45 - manageable at L45 with a fresh second-job
character.
