You discovered that the traitor was none other than Gregory the Darkstaff Scholar himself! But before you could apprehend him he escaped town and is on the run. Now, Mayor Vandus wants you to track him down and kill him.


Quest text[edit]

Listen to Mayor Vandus

<player>, I have been thinking about Gregory's escape. He has likely heard of your assault on the Risen King and when you arrived in town he deduced that you had been victorious. Knowing his ties with the Withered Aegis, he fled. By now, he could be anywhere on the peninsula! You must find him and, I dare say, kill him.

Where can you find him, <player>? Well, I would recommend visiting each of the outposts and speaking with the posted militia. Surely one of them has seen or heard of his passing! Be swift and merciless, <player>!

Gregory the Scholar? Yes, I know of him. And yes, he did pass this way a short while ago. He was heading south.

Hail, <player>! Gregory the Scholar is a Traitor? I can't believe it! Are you sure? Well, if you say it is true then it must be. *she shakes her head in disbelief* To think he has been a revered person in the Confederation for years! Have I seen him? Yes, I have. He passed through here in quite a hurry just a short while ago. He was heading south.

Gregory the Scholar? No, <player>, I have not seen him in many weeks. I am sorry I cannot be of more help.

Good day, <player>! Gregory the Scholar? Yes, I know of him. He hasn't been here in... oh, I can't remember when he was last here.

Gregory the Scholar is a traitor? Surely you jest, <player>? No? *he gasps* Who would have thought! What secrets he may have given the enemy! I only wish he had passed through here, but alas he has not.

Gregory the Scholar? Is he coming here? No? A traitor? How can you say such things! He is a hero to the Confederation! Isn't he? I haven't seen him, but if he does come here I will shake his hand.

Gregory the Scholar is the traitor, is he? Well, this is a wrinkle I had not expected. No, I have not seen him <player>.

Hail, <player>! It is good to see you again. You have the look of someone on a mission... You are seeking Gregory? The scholar? Yes, he passed through here not long ago. He was heading south. I warned him of the dangers on the roads to the south, the undead and all, but he said it would not pose any difficulties. I assumed it was because of his stature as a Wizard, but now I see that it might have been due to other reasons. A terrible thing, this is. I won't keep you, <player>. Safe journeys!

<player>, your help has been much appreciated. You are here to assist us further, yes? Gregory? *he strokes his chin* No, I have not seen the man in some time. Not since I last visited Dalimond. Does he have something to do with the token you recovered?

Greetings, <player>, what brings you back to our campsite refuge? You are seeking a traitor? Indeed! Gregory the Scholar you say? No, it cannot be! But it must, I can tell from the look you have about you. This is a sad day for the Empire, <player>, that one so regarded would turn on his own people.


Locate signs of the traitor Gregory's flight by visiting each of the outposts and speaking with the posted militia for clues.

Nevertheless, he and his companions continued to the east. I believe they were headed to the coast... there is a lighthouse there and to the east we have seen smoke, as if from fires. We have not confirmed it, but we suspect there is a camp of some sort. Seek it out and you shall find him. Be wary, <player>, for he traveled with a sizeable party and they had a rough look about them. If you seek to bring him to justice then you may need friends on your side!

Game Feedback: The Shadowed Campsite isn't very far and it is a good observation point on the Warrens. Maybe someone has seen Gregory there.


You have discovered that Gregory the Scholar and his men went southeast to the coast next to a lighthouse. Gather your friends, locate him, and bring him to justice!

Game Feedback: Justice has been done. Return to Dalimond and report to Councilman Micklin Vandus.


Defeat Gregory the Scholar

Game Feedback: You have defeated Gregory the Traitor!


Defeat ten (10) of Gregory's Henchmen

Game Feedback: You have thinned the ranks of Gregory's Henchmen!


Return to Dalimond and speak with Councilman Micklin Vandus

The Traitor has been defeated?! This is a bittersweet day, <player>. Gregory was a great scholar, I can only imagine what secrets he must have learned or what demons tormented him that might have led him down this path... to betray one's own people. But you have saved the day and brought justice to the Confederation! Once again, we are in your debt!
