Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'This great attack could come at any time, <name>. Yet, even now, the Orcs lurk outside the walls. 'If we can thin their numbers before the attack, we may stand yet a better chance of defeating this force. 'Hunt the Orcs outside Snowbourn and take their weapons. We cannot allow any other Orc to take up the arms of the fallen. We will starve them of resources, one-by-one.' Background Orcs trouble the outskirts of Snowbourn, wielding terrible weapons against the people of the Sutcrofts. Objective 1 Defeat Orcs at Wyrthing (0/10) Collect Orc-weapons from fallen Orcs (0/6) Orcs can be found north of Snowbourn. Gísling wants you to thin out the Orcs surrounding Snowbourn and recover their vile weapons so that no other Orc may wield them again. Objective 2 Talk to Gísling Gísling is in central Snowbourn. You should return to Gísling with news of your success. Gísling: 'Well done. I know not how many more Orcs will fall upon Snowbourn, but you have slain a great many, and for that, I thank you.'
