Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'Have you seen the bears around here? They stumble so close to the farm both day and night that I think they are either growing tame...or worse. 'If they continue to come closer to the farm, then it is possible they will attack, and if we put the horses in their stable before then...well the Thornleys will certainly lose much. If you are willing, I can offer up some coin for thinning out the bears around the area. You will find the bears I am talking roaming about from the Old Greenway Fort in the east through the Brandywine Hills in the west. 'Return to me when you've culled this lot.' Background Ray Thistlebur believes that the bears surrounding Thornley's Work Site are out for more than honey and that they will soon attack the site. He refuses to allow the horses to be moved into the stable until the bears are driven off. Objective 1 Defeat bears in the Northern Bree-fields (0/12) Bears can be found throughout the north Bree-fields. Ray Thistlebur has asked you to thin the number of the bears in the area. Ray Thistlebur: 'Others think that there are greater threats than bears inthis land. Everywhere that I look, I see them as a greater threat than any I have seen. We have got to do something about their encroaching and growing population.' Objective 2 Return to Ray Thistlebur at Thornley's Work Site Ray Thistlebur awaits your return at the stables at Thornley's Work Site. Ray Thistlebur will be pleased to know that you have done as he asked. Ray Thistlebur: 'You did well, and I did make a promise to offer you pay, but I cannot say that I am willing to bring the horses here yet. 'Look around you, see them our there...bears, I truly think that they are the greatest threat we face here in Bree-land. Surely, I do.'
