    @brief
        This class is a description of a QuestItem (@ref orxonox::Quest "Quest" and @ref orxonox::QuestHint "QuestHint").
        It holds a title and a description. For quests also messages that are sent, when failing or completing the quest can be added.

        Creating a QuestDescription through XML goes as follows:
        @code
        <QuestDescription title="Title" description="Description Text" failMessage="You fail." completeMessage="You win!" />
        @endcode
