Walkthrough & Notes

Once you have collected your flock, simply head straight beck to Ost Rimmon -- don't worry about attacks from Message Riders or Warband Naruk. Just out run them, the sheep will follow you. You can also tend the sheep while mounted on your war-steed and return to Ost Rimmon at a full gallop -- the sheep will keep up with you. (Fast little sweaters to be.) The first flock is at [43.5S, 34.7W] The sheep in the second flock are more scattered around [44.0S, 39.6W] The sheep in the third flock are clustered together near [41.7S, 40.8W]

Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'What a bind! I ran here in a fright and left my flocks grazing out upon the hills. Now I don't dare go back out, what with those bad men and their swords roaming to and fro. Now you, you're not afraid of those men, are you, <class>? Would you go and lead my sheep back here to me? If they're left out there, they'll be eaten up by wolves and swordsmen, every last one! 'My flocks will not have strayed far. They were on the pastures north of Erelas, north-east of Calenhad, and west of Bâr Nadhron.'

If we are held here long, they will make food and garments for these folk too, as well they ought.'
