Found in the Cemetery of the Forsaken in Act I[e]
Part	Text	Found on Quest
1	When King Leoric came to court, he brought many nobles with him. And nobles, oddly enough, want noble crypts. So I showed up with my shovel, thinking to make an easy profit by digging a few holes. Ha! There's no stopping their demands around here! Now I eat, sleep, and breathe dirt, it seems. -- Darris the Gravedigger	Any

Now they supply crops to both New Tristram and Wortham. -- Abd al-Hazir]] Darris the Gravedigger	Any

More on Researching the Khazra

The Khazra Massacre[edit | edit source]
