How to use Beasts of Khorinis I
Beasts of Khorinis I starts with the volume in Jan's hut. You can also check Fisk, Skip, or Torik for a copy. Bring it to Cavalorn, answer his scavenger questions, and confirm the Take Skull Armor lesson before hunting for a Scavenger's skull plate.
Find or buy the volume before killing scavengers for their trophy. Keep a save before Cavalorn's dialogue and check the skill result in your current build.
Hunting skills are an LP decision. If you only need a one-off kill, compare the trophy need with weapon or survival training before committing.

Search Jan first, then check merchant stock before crossing the Colony for a random chest.
Open routeBuying or hunting without knowing the handoff can waste ore and leave the skill route unfinished.
A trophy dropped without the right lesson may not satisfy the quest route.
Your save has the lesson and the quest still asks for a scavenger skull plate.
Hunt the Scavenger, take the skull plate, and return only when Cavalorn's objective is active.
Do not sell the part while the hunting route is open.

- Carry Beasts of Khorinis I to Cavalorn and complete the scavenger questions.
- Confirm Take Skull Armor is learned before hunting the Scavenger whose skull plate you need.

Early Hunting Route
Volume I is the cleanest introduction to the hunting-book chain: find the book, use Cavalorn as the handoff, then learn the collection skill before chasing the matching beast part. The book order is flexible, but this first route is easy to combine with an early Old Camp or Outer Ring trip.
