Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue You gently tell Cyneberg that it would be best to leave, and head back to Forlaw. 'You are right. How will we tell Gárwig that there is no hope for Wildermore, <name>? 'I do not want to face him after I behaved so foolishly. I was so full of hope! That is done now.' Background You and Cyneberg have decided that it's time to leave Grimnesberg and head back to Forlaw in defeat. Objective 1 Summon Cyneberg to your side Cyneberg has given you a whistle to summon her. You should summon Cyneberg to your side. You have called Cyneberg to your side Objective 2 You should speak with Cyneberg at an ideal resting spot The best path can be found south-west of Grimnesberg's crest. Cyneberg can be summoned using the whistle should you become separated. You should head south-west with Cyneberg to begin your return to Forlaw, and speak with her when she is ready. You should talk to Cyneberg here Cyneberg: 'Did you kill these Orcs, <name>? You did well -- I did not see them when I came here.' You tell Cyneberg that it was not you who killed the three Orcs at your feet. Cyneberg looks confused, but says nothing. Cyneberg did not kill these Orcs, and neither did you... Objective 3 Investigate the Orc-corpses to the north-west Another pile of Orcs can be found north-west of the first in the eastern High Knolls. You should investigate the Orcs with Cyneberg. You should talk to Cyneberg here Cyneberg: 'This is terribly strange. Who could be doing this? We have no heroes left in Wildermore. 'Are there two of you, <name>? 'I think there are more up ahead. Let us follow them.' Another cluster of dead Orcs can be found to the north Objective 4 Investigate the Orc-corpses to the north Another pile of Orcs can be found north of the first in the eastern High Knolls. You should investigate the Orcs with Cyneberg. You should talk to Cyneberg here Cyneberg: 'This was deftly done. It... it reminds me of Thrymm. But it was not he.' Cyneberg's voice cracks as she speaks. Cyneberg is reminded of Thrymm by this handiwork... Objective 5 Find the Orc-corpses to the north Another pile of Orcs can be found north of the first in the eastern High Knolls. You should investigate the Orcs with Cyneberg. Many more Orcs have been recently killed here Cyneberg: 'And another. Whoever did this is strong, <name>. I hope we can count them a friend.' Objective 6 Talk to Cyneberg Cyneberg kneels at a pile of slain Orcs in the northern High Knolls. You should speak with Cyneberg. Cyneberg: 'Who did this, <name>? It is a mystery.' You cannot help but wonder if Thrymm has returned from the dead, but you keep your thoughts to yourself.
