Quest Text

Bestowal Dialogue 'We have now both honoured our sides of the pact, after ignoring it so long. It feels good to have that relationship restored. I hope that in the future we can build and make it grow and flourish. 'I am prepared to take a large step towards that. I know where the tomb-robbers make their primary camp. It is a small island at the north end of the lake called Rantost. Many of the relics they have pilfered are kept there until they can find buyers for them. I imagine the history they are keeping there is immense and invaluable to the Rangers. 'Months ago, I sent three of my men to join the tomb-robbers. They are now on the isle of Rantost, still working for me. I am now willing to use them and have them expose themselves and challenge Rantost for the Rangers. Seek them out, and they will tell you what to do next.' Background The isle of Rantost is where the tomb-robbers have made their central camp. A great deal of history is being kept there. Objective 1 Talk to Eliot Bencroft at Rantost Rantost is north-west of Ost Forod. Basil sent you to meet with several spies he has among the tomb-robber camp on the isle of Rantost. Basic Gummidge: 'If Evendim is to be restored to glory, the tomb-robbers must be stopped.' Eliot Bencroft: 'I am doing nothing suspicious, just standing around waiting for the next boat. Wait, what's your name? Who sent you? Basil, you say? Then it is time we get to work.'
