Quest text[edit]
Are you ready to leave, <player>?
- I am ready!
Speak to Guard-Captain Bixben Lindnottin
We don't know what you will find inside this Fortress. Nothing good for sure. Please, be careful. By the way, Talbain wanted to give you something for your battle. You should talk to him before you go.
Hail, <player>! Do you remember the Werewolf Claws I asked you for earlier?
- Yes, I remember.
Speak with Talbain Styrlakr
I have worked with the Alchemist and the Tinkerer trainers here. And we found out we could use their properties as weapons against werewolves! These are only prototypes, but take them: they should help you for your upcoming fight. Good luck.
Return to the bridge to the Fortress in the Dusk Forest
Game Feedback: You are back to the entrance of the fortress. Cross the bridge and destroy the forcefield.
Destroy the forcefield and enter the Fortress of Be'Ladok the Proud to discover the source of the Duskenwylves
Game Feedback: Inside the fortress, you find a giant undead werewolf. He notices you and attacks on sight.
Defeat Kallinath the Bloodthirsty
Game Feedback: The unworldly beast falls at your feet, bleeding from the multiple wounds you've inflicted on it. You take a quick look at the room and discover a hastily written note and a strange device. You take them with you, they may reveal something interesting. It's time to return to Bixben and alert him of your victory.
Defeated! Well done, <player>, well done indeed. The New Rachival Defense Forces, the New Rachival Research Institute, and the rest of our citizens thank you for helping making our community and people safer.
- I have found these items in the fortress.
Oh, this machine must be Versanto's generator. He will be happy to get it back. I could hear swearing with rage from here! And what about this note?
Oh no! It appears the monster you have slain was an agent of the Withered Aegis. It was a particularly dangerous follower of Akkesh, Lord of Beasts, and one of the original factions of the Withered Aegis cabal. This isn't good news, <player>. But you have destroyed the source and there is not much we can do for the moment. The New Rachival Defense Force will clean the Dusk Forest of the remaining Duskenwylves and keep its eyes peeled in case a new member of the Withered Aegis shows itself again. I can only thank you for what you have done for us.
Return to Guard-Captain Bixben Lindnottin in New Rachival
Before you go, Talbain wanted to speak with you.
So you have destroyed the source of lycanthropy in the Dusk Forest, <player>. Congratulations. But something is concerning...
The lycanthropy didn't come naturally to the Dusk Forest and it was a plot of the Withered Aegis. What is the connection between our enemies and the werewolves? If there is any. Maybe they just tried another way to disrupt the organisation of the living races, but it was a failure. It is too soon to discover it I believe.
Speak with Talbain Styrlakr
I will have another task for you about werewolves, but you aren't strong enough yet to achieve it. Come back to me when you have more experience. Take this as a mark of gratitude and see you soon, <player>.
