A fairly straightforward quest, which you can do quite early in the game to get some loot to buy the deeds to Benirus Manor (see: "Where Spirits Have Lease"), provided that is, that you have already acquired some silver or magical weapons that can cope with ghosts. On the quay of Anvil harbor is moored a ship called the Serpent's Wake. Lurking nearby is a High Elf sorceress, named Varulae.

She will explain that her precious crystal ball is in a chest somewhere in the ship, but it's guarded by ghosts of the former crew that she can't cope with. Will you go and get it for her? Of course you will. She will give you a key to get into the ship. When you do so you'll be attacked by the ghosts one by one, and that is about all there is to it. Find your way down to the lower decks (you need to find another key on the way) picking up the ghosts' ectoplasm and cutlasses as you go, until you locate the chest with the crystal ball in it.

Back on the top deck give the trinket to Varulae, and she will reward you with the Captain's cutlass, This is quite a powerful weapon, and if you started the game in Anvil (recommended) you will probably keep it for some time. You can then nip across the wharf to Norbert Lelles' shop "Lelles' Quality Merchandise", where you will not only to be able to sell your loot, but (if you have not completed it already on the instructions of Azzan at the Fighter's Guild) find another quest - "The Unfortunate Shopkeeper".
