Walkthrough & Notes

This quest counts for the Aiding the Wold deed. Completing Aiding the Eastemnet will cancel this quest This is an instanced public questing area. A wandering Carangam will indeed defeat you with one hit, so make sure not to attract its attention. It inspires a dread effect when it comes close to you. The easiest (and safest) method is to; - Wait for the initial Carngam to move (at speed) from your left (east) in front of you at the spawn point. - Once it has moved on up the slope in front of you a little, there will likely be a Cargûl-rune which are dropped at reasonably regular intervals by the Carangam as it pauses then moves on apace. Sometimes they drop 2 runes at a time. - Follow it's path keeping a reasonable distance and pick up the runes as it drops them. In this way you should avoid being surprised by one. Just watch for any others on intersecting paths. To leave the instance either return to the Horse at the original spawn point, or use the 'Leave Instance' function (right click the character portrait).

Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'The land of the Ford was once green and lush, but it has been perverted and destroyed. Not by the Easterlings, but their foul masters, the Cargûl. As they wander the camp, they drop runes which burn their way into the spirit, filling it with malice and hate. 'If the rune is destroyed, its power fades and the land can be preserved. Do not get too close to the Cargûl, for they can destroy any <race> with a single attack, but follow them closely. When you see a rune, destroy it.' Background The runes that the Cargûl drop seep into the land and defile it. Objective 1 Destroy Cargûl-runes at the Ford (0/6) Runes can be found on the paths the Cargûl of the Ford walk. Wulfin asked you to destroy the runes the Cargûl drop before they defile the land. Wulfin: 'Are you prepared to face the Cargûl of the Ford?' Enter the Public Instance: The Ford Objective 2 Talk to Wulfin Wulfin is in Harwick. Wulfin will be pleased to hear that you destroyed several runes before they were able to defile the land. Wulfin: 'One day, either the Cargûl will leave, or we will force them out. For now, I feel content that the land itself is safe.'
