Diablo III Kore

While exploring the world, you will find NPCs with a yellow exclamation sign floating above their head.  When you accept the quest, the title and objectives are displayed onscreen at the right-center for few seconds, then fades out.  You can access the quest window by pressing (Q). After walking away from the bonfire of corpses at the Tristram Woods, you enter the Ruins of Tristram. There are a few destroyed buildings. You can see the Physix engine in action when randomly some debris of the ruins crumble down. Placing your mouse cursor over some of the door signs you will find Griswold’s Blacksmith Shop. While exploring, you find a well. It can be highlighted if you place your cursor on. 

A quest starts and it is automatically displayed onscreen to the right...

 The Restless Sands 

Objective: Free the Necromancer Mehtan from the ghosts of his past. Find him south of the Enclave of Khamsin in the area known as The Stinging Winds. Summon the spirits haunting him by finding and activating his three totems, and then destroy the wraiths that appear. He gives you a rare ring as a reward.

 

Alesser's Pendant

Objective: Alesser has asked you to locate and kill the monstrous sand shark that killed his son. He gives you a rare belt as a reward. Find the shark in The Stinging Winds. 

The Collapsing Ruins 

Objective: Find your way through a quaking dungeon before it collapses on top of you. This is a timed quest and must be completed within the allotted duration. This dungeon is located underneath The Stinging Winds, and its entrance looks similar to both the waypoints and the seals of The Chaos Sanctuary of Diablo II.

The Idol of Rygnar 

Objective: Lead Pollahr through a dungeon to find the Rygnar Idol. 

Little Girl Lost

Objective: Find a way to free the little girl’s spirit from the old well in Tristram.

When you stand near the well you can hear the girl’s voice over and weeping. She is trapped inside the well. Exploring further into the Tristram ruins you find a female ghost and listen to her voice over which is repeated over and over randomly: Where has gone my girl?  She must be so lonely.  She never goes away without her doll.  She’s lost without it!

Not far from the ghost you will find a chest on the ground. Within lies the doll. Loot it and return to the well. The quest is completed as you return the doll.  The spirit of the girl ascends from within the deep well and thank you. A reward is automatically placed in your inventory. 

You will read a message onscreen saying how much XP (experience) you gained, and the name of the looted item.

In my case, a Socket-ed Boots of Brawn (+9 armor, 1 socket, + 2 strength).

Before reaching the Cathedral of Tristram entrance, you will find zombies knelled on the ground as if eating from a body. Once you kill them, the body on the ground - tagged Dying Adventurer - automatically highlights a yellow exclamation sign enabling a new quest:

The Return of the Skeleton King

The voice over says something along these lines: “Please ... listen to me!  The fire, somehow ... it awoke him. The Skeleton King’s evil haunts the cathedral once more.“

Your character’s voice over says: “Skeleton King, huh?  Sounds interesting. Rest easy. I will show him the err of his ways.“

Enter the cathedral. Eventually you will find an NPC with a yellow sign on his head. Take the quest. The NPC was a loyal friend of King Leoric in Diablo 1.  Lachdanan killed King Leoric, who cursed him on his last dying breath.
