Quest Text

Bestowal Dialogue 'I have devised a plan to deal with the Gauredain and have proposed it to Erchiel. She agrees on this course of action. 'As for this plan, we -- and by that, I am afraid I mean you -- shall steal several of the wards that the Gauredain have scattered about their encampments. I believe you know them well enough, as you brought one here before. These wards are simple tribal symbols, commonly used to keep evil spirits at bay by superstitious cultures. That is not to say that such spirits do not occasionally roam the world in one form or another -- but I am afraid a simple chunk of wood would do little to deter them. 'In any case, I need you to gather several of these and bring them to me, then we can embark on the rather more clever part of this plan.' Background Remmenylf has suggested a solution to Erchiel regarding the Gauredain that seems rather less violent than other possible approaches. Objective 1 Gather Gauradan-wards (0/5) Remmenylf has asked you to steal a number of the wards that are scattered around the Gauradan-encampments. The Gauradan-encampments are north of the Eavespires. Remmenylf: 'Bring me the wards of the Gauredain.' Objective 2 Bring the Gauradan-wards to Remmenylf Remmenylf is at the Eavespires, south of the Gauradan-encampments. You should bring the Gauradan-wards you collected to Remmenylf. Remmenylf: 'Good, you have done exactly as I asked. I hope the Gauredain were not too much trouble? 'In any case, now I have what I need to begin setting our final plan into motion, which I will now describe to you....'
