Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue

'The Dourhands have long scouted the lands near the dwarf-keep Othrikar, and they now move to attack the outpost of our friends. The good sentries of Othrikar are stout warriors, but they will be outnumbered, and their victory over the Dourhand menace is far from being assured by the odds as they stand.'

Background

The Dourhand attack is imminent, and Huldar has asked you to aid in the defence of Othrikar.

Objective 1

Talk to Huldar
Avoid losing three Othrikar sentries (0/3)

Huldar is standing in the centre of Othrikar.

The dwarf Huldar is waiting to speak to you.

Huldar: 'The Dourhands are sure to be here any moment, <name>, and we must be ready.

'Come with me, and I will show you to your position.'

Objective 2

Support the Othrikar sentries against the Dourhands
Avoid losing three Othrikar sentries (0/3)

The Dourhands plan to attack Othrikar, and you have been charged with keeping the dwarf-defenders fighting as long as possible.

Huldar says, "Follow me, <name>."

Huldar says, "I will be aiding the sentries up there, by the mines."

Huldar says, "Your position will be over here, <name>."

Huldar says, "Support the guards at the gate ahead! They will have need of your aid!"

Othrikar Sentry says, "<name>! You are to be our Rune-keeper, yes?"

Othrikar Sentry says, "We are expecting a Dourhand attack at any moment."

Othrikar Sentry says, "You must use your mastery of runes and their mysteries to keep my dwarves fighting!"

Othrikar Sentry says, "I think I see one! That's no dwarf of Othrikar!"

A great shout arises within the city: hendrevail have flown behind the walls!

Othrikar Sentry says, "Help! Hendrevail...over the rooftops!"

Objective 3

Support the Othrikar sentries at Huldar's position
Avoid losing three Othrikar sentries (0/3)

Huldar has been wounded in battle, and now the Othrikar sentries up by the mines are without their Rune-keeper. You must fill in for Huldar before it is too late.

Othrikar Sentry says, "Rune-keeper!"

Othrikar Sentry says, "We need your help up by the mines! Huldar has been wounded!"

Huldar says, "<name>...you will need to protect these dwarves in my stead!"

The Dourhand attack has been repelled

Objective 4

Talk to Huldar
Avoid losing three Othrikar sentries (0/3)

Huldar is up by the mines of Othrikar.

You have repelled the attack on Othrikar and should speak now to Huldar.

Huldar: 'My wounds are not serious. Let me just get my breath back, and I will be fine.

'You have my thanks, <name>. My dwarves and I are fortunate that you came to Othrikar when you did, and your skill during this battle will not be forgotten!'

Huldar: 'If you will give me your arm, I would appreciate its support as we walk back to the centre of the outpost.'
