I forgot to mention that the web page doesn't mention that 2 of the
components (the Koalindl fish and the Eruds Tonic) required to complete the
first half of the quest (make the bartenders compendum) are no drop, as is
the compendum.

A fellow guild member also told me to turn in the items to the Freeport
Bartender one at a time as giving all 4 at once sometimes doesn't result in
anything. I also was given conflicting advice that if you cast Alliance on
him from the "patron" side of the bar that the Ogre will(not) attack you.

Can anyone confirm/ deny either of these?
Thanks.
