Quest Text

Bestowal Dialogue 'You there, did you hear the noise? It was a thunderous pounding coming from outside!' Background Borhador hears a loud noise outside and wants you to investigate as he fears a cave troll has come for him. Objective 1 Speak to Borhador Borhador can be found in his hall above Ethring village. Borhador asks you to investigate a sound he heard. Borhador: 'Protect me!' Complete Instance: A Commanding Knock Objective 2 Speak with Borhador Borhador can be found in his hall above Ethring village. You should speak with Borhador. Borhador: 'I have seen something that made me remember how I felt in my younger years. It took my people risking their lives for me to realise this. Yes, I miss my wife Halwen and my son Dervorin greatly. I must lead this Vale again so that my son will have a place to come home to. What is the difference between losing your home and death, I ask you that? 'Please take my word to Laerind and let her know that I am deeply sorry for my reclusiveness and I cherish all that she and Arvaethor have done of late for the Vale. I bestow Laerind and Arvaethor with command over the Vale until Dervorin returns to take over my reign. Now I must rest to regain my strength for the coming days.' Objective 3 Speak with Laerind Laerind can be found in Ethring village. You should speak with Laerind. Laerind: 'I know that deep down the Lord of the Vale's sadness stems from how much he cares for his land and misses his wife Halwen. It is a burden. Arvaethor and I shall continue leading while Borhador regains his strength. 'I thank you, <name>, for all that you've done. I hope that you will stay in the Vale longer and continue assisting our efforts.'
