Tobold Leafcutter (NPC)'It seems that this may not be the first time that such terror has plagued these lands. The bits of parchment you recovered lead me to believe that two brothers fought to recover a great treasure of Cardolan and brought it here to the northern Barrow-downs.
'The lore-fragments you brought me mention a fortress named Ost Gorthad. The Men of Cardolan took many of those who fell sick to the Plague there. The ruins of that fortress still stand today in the south! It is from here that a terror rose and cursed the brothers for their theft.
'If you are willing, you may seek the treasure or the history of that treasure at the Northern Barrow, not far from here to the east. Perhaps we can learn more about these Men and how to stave this evil from spreading beyond the bounds of the Barrow-downs.'

Objective 1:
You may find a chest resting at the Northern Barrow, the northernmost barrow of the Barrow-downs. Tobold Leafcutter waits for you between the Old Forest and Barrow-downs.
Tobold Leafcutter has asked you to search the Northern Barrow for more lore. He hopes that lore from the Men of Cardolan may have survived the long years since the Great Plague in a chest. If you find such lore, you should bring it to Tobold.

• Bring the ancient journal to Tobold Leafcutter (Tobold Leafcutter) 
• Turn in Ancient Journal
Spoiler alert
The chest is located in the SE most reaches of the southern Barrows, in the ruins past the Bone Man. Keep heading south into the ruins until you see a circular platform surrounded by water with a small Ancient Chest on it. If anyone who has this quest approaches the chest, 6-8 wights will spring up around the chest and attack. The timer that causes these wights to pop is very small, so it's best for everyone who needs the chest to rush towards it and stay there while they fight off the wights. That way, you don't have to worry about anyone approaching the chest after the wights are killed and causing them to spring up again.
