You have helped and made his curse a bit more bearable. Now it's time to leave and report what you have seen to Talbain Styrlakr.


Quest text[edit]

Thank you again for helping me, my friend. I still have to leave with this curse, but my life will be a bit easier now that Eyetooth has been defeated.

  • You're welcome Balit. But now I need to return to New Rachival and report my findings.

Please, <player>... I don't want people to come to this island to kill me or cage me forever in a freak show. Please, don't tell them about me.

  • Don't worry my friend, my lips are sealed. And anyway, they are too scared to come here by themselves. Hence they sent me.

That's a relief. But that means I'm going to be alone again. I enjoyed your company and being able to talk to someone. Could you visit me sometimes?

  • I will, Balit. Until next time!

Speak to Balit before leaving

Until next time...

<player>! I'm glad to see you back! I was starting to fear you would never return as well.

  • A few werewolves aren't going to impress me much.

Have you said werewolves? Have you seen them?

  • Yes, you were right Talbain. Plenty of werewolves and I have killed my share of them.

Hahaha, I'm going to make a real hunter out of you! Have you found anything else? Survivors?

  • No, sadly, I have only found skeletons. But one of them was interesting.

Tell me more?

  • He had a journal which explained what happened and a few bottles of salves to help against werewolves.

Ooooh... do you still have this journal with you?

  • I don't. It fell in the sea while I was fighting a fierce werewolf called Eyetooth. However, I could salvage the potions and I have them with me.

That is already some progress. Can you tell me what happened?

  • A ship was transporting a werewolf for study. It was captured after a group of werewolves, led by an undead werewolf of the Withered Aegis, rampaged through the Dalimond Peninsula.

The Withered Aegis again...

  • The werewolf escaped his cage and the ship wrecked on the island. The crew was slain or infected by lycanthropy.

And the adventurers who never returned are either among the skeletons or the werewolves now.

  • Most probably.

So if I understand well, the Withered Aegis is indirectly responsible for the troubles on Balit's Island.

  • This sounds like a consistent explanation.

Return to Talbain Styrlakr in New Rachival with your report on Balit's Island

Curse them! Twice you have fought werewolves and twice the Withered Aegis was involved somehow. This can't only be a coincidence, <player>.I will do some research...and I will probably need your help again later. But for the moment, you need to strengthen yourself. Who knows which dangers you will have to face? See you again!
