Objectives[]
Seek out Weaponsmith Koref and interview him about the key.
Description[]
Here for the latest? Well, have I got news for you.
A weaponsmith was just here visiting Tithris. Koref, I think? Couldn't help but overhear their discussion about some sort of ancient key. Might be of interest to you, what with all your artifact hunting.
Weaponsmith Koref was headed back to the Obsidian Enclave. You should head there and get the scoop about this ancient key.

Have you ever heard of the Titan Key? Tall as a dwarf, magically imbued. The titans used a special mold to forge the key, but it's been lost for ages.
However, as fortune would have it, Tithris found a book that he believes leads to that very mold! Problem is, the text isn't exactly straightforward. And I'm terrible at reading between the lines.
But hey, with all your experience finding artifacts, maybe you could give it a shot! I'd be happy to forge the key if you find the mold.
Notes[]
The note reads:
Deep in Cloverwood Hollow, swallowed by a sylvan glade, worked a smith with his apprentice. One day their forge was attacked by thieves. The smith told his apprentice to hide their most treasured crafts, including the mold to an incredible key said be crafted for Keeper Tyr himself. The smith then went off to hold off the attackers.
With little time, the apprentice cast a spell to obscure the mold by blending it into the masonry. To find it again, she magicked a stone table to react to their torches and display the location of the mold. As a last precaution, she ensured that only those with the eyes of Ohn'ahra would be able to spot the mold against the masonry.
The attackers soon overwhelmed the smith and made their way into the forge. The apprentice escaped and would never return. Still, she passed her secret to those she trusted, hoping one day the mold would be found again.
<A note on the back shows you successfully solved this clue.>
The Cloverwood Hollow is in central Ohn'ahran Plains, marked on the zone map, southeast of Maruukai. In a ruined building in the Sylvan Glade, equip the 
[Torch of Pyrreth] and look for a Hastily Scrawled Stone at [63.4, 56.9] on the ground by a broken table. It reads:
<Hastily scrawled numbers are visible on the enchanted plaque. (-3, -2). Did the apprentice know about coordinate system the titan's[sic] used?>
Re-equip the 
[Tricked-Out Thinking Cap] to reset it to (0, 0), and the 
[Idol of Ohn'ahra], then navigate to (-3, -2) or [63.0, 57.4] to find an Ancient Key Mold hidden in the leaves. The idol will point in the direction of the mold. Interact with it to pick up the 
[Titan Key Mold], which starts [60-70] A Titanic Mold.
