Quest Text

Bestowal dialogue 'Listen, I need help! A friend of mine, a girl named Idalene, has gone missing, and I'm afraid something terrible has happened to her! 'She told me she was having some strange dreams. Dreams of a friend, perhaps a sister lost out in the fields of Fornost. But Idalene never had a sister, and no one from town would be so foolish as to wander the cursed land at Deadmen's Dike. I guess she had the dream more than once, and it seemed to be distressing her, but I couldn't calm her no matter how much I tried. 'Now she's gone missing, and I don't know what to do. One thing I can think of is this: North of here there's a man called Colbert. I think he has a camp overlooking the Greenway. He says he's a merchant, but I don't know what he sells, or to whom. But he talks about Fornost sometimes, so maybe he knows those lands. Please find his camp and ask him if he's heard anything of Idalene.' Background Dallin Endholder is concerned about his friend Idalene. She has gone missing after telling him about dreams she had that called her to the fields of Fornost. Objective 1 Talk to Colbert the Mad Colbert's camp is north of Trestlebridge, overlooking the Greenway. Dallin Endholder has sent you to a strange man named Colbert in hopes that he will be able to tell you something of Idalene. Dallin Endholder: 'Please find Colbert up north and see if he knows anything about what happened to Idalene!' Colbert the Mad: 'Idalene? Idalene? Sorry, don't know her. Can't help you. Pity. Eh? What? Yes, I do go into the Fields of Fornost from time to time. Strange place, that. Haunted, you know. The ghosts of bears...and of other things. 'Oh? Oh? Idalene's a girl from Trestlebridge. Aha! Thought she was a bear. Can't be too sure about such things, you know. Since you mention it, think I saw a girl out there the other day. Couldn't be sure what she was really, so I didn't get too close. You never know out there, you know? 'Funny thing. I really don't think that's a good place for a girl to be wandering around, alone. Could be dangerous! Oh, right, anyway, I saw her not too far north-west of here, just sort of frolicking, I guess you could say. Hm? No, don't mention it, my pleasure.'
