Bestowal Dialogue

An Shêru, the Height of the Sky, was once known for the loveliness of its high forests and flowering meads, but no longer. Now the plateau is parched and dry, a cracked waste among the high peaks of the Mûr. If Inkanûsh is correct that other vaults of the Thardúth remain, this would seem to be a likely place for them.

'The road that runs from Zajâna to An Shêru has a Reputation for danger. We must remain alert for brigands as we make our way north-east.'

Background

The road to An Shêru has a reputation for danger, but that is the way you must go.

Objective 1

The road to An Shêru runs by Zajâna. You should begin by going to the north-east.

Ulishár: 'We must remain alert for brigands as we make our way toward An Shêru.'
There is something suspicious about this signpost

Objective 2

Something strikes you as suspicious about the signpost north-east of Zajâna.

Shouting defiantly, a brigand leaps out of hiding!
You survived, but he may have allies; if you repair the signpost you may save others

Objective 3

If Dagûrum had allies, leaving the signpost as it is may help them ambush other travellers. You should repair the signpost and ruin their plans.

You repair the signpost, making the road more safe for travellers

Objective 4

  • Continue further north-west along the road to An Shêru

The road to An Shêru leads north-west of Zajâna.

Brigands appear to have tampered with this signpost as well

Objective 5

Brigands may have tampered with the signpost north of Zajâna as well.

Amêsh leaps from hiding, unaware of your lack of surprise
You survived Amêsh's ambush, and should repair this signpost as well

Objective 6

You should repair this signpost north of Zajâna as you repaired the other.

As you step back to admire your work, you feel eyes upon you

Objective 7

Rahâzi has arrived in the company of two Hamâti soldiers.

Rahâzi: 'Our paths cross once again, <name>, and it seems they each lead to the Height of the Sky!
Shâra Mizâdi entrusted me and two of her soldiers to Scout the plateau of An Shêru ahead of her army. We have not yet climbed high enough and already we have run afoul of brigands. I see you have as well!
'The bandits came from the Hold of Jalkhíla to the east. If you deprive them of blades and bows with which they trouble folk on the road, you will be aiding the Shâra and any others who must travel this way. We can meet up at Gadim-ûn where the road leads into An Shêru and discuss our further plans.'

Objective 8

  • Collect blades from brigands in Kighân (0/6)
  • Collect bows from the Hold of Jalkhíla (0/2)
2 Brigand Bows
5 Brigand Blades

The Hold of Jalkhíla is located to the east in Kighân.

Rahâzi: 'Deprive those brigands of the blades and bows with which they trouble folk on the road, and we can meet up at Gadim-ûn where the road leads into An Shêru.'
Collected blades (6/6)
Collected bows (2/2)

Objective 9

2 Brigand Bows
5 Brigand Blades

Rahâzi asked you to meet up with her party at Gadim-ûn in An Shêru.

Rahâzi: 'Those brigands would surely have known not to trouble Shâra Mizâdi or her army, but most travellers have neither her numbers nor her ferocious mien! It is good you have shown them the road is not undefended.
'I felt a chill when I arrived here, and my companions say they felt the same. I suspect more than brigands haunt these ruins.'
