Description
You are without mercy. You will do well around these parts. I have another task to ask of you. There is a female vrykul prisoner that's become more of a liability than I had anticipated. She had the gall to claim the right to take part in the Hyldsmeet, our sacred competition of strength and fighting prowess. Here's the key to her shackles. Make it as painless as possible. She's a female after all, even if not one of us.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Examples to be Made
For every action there is an opposite reaction, sister. In the case of us applying pressure on the males, this has meant newly spread rumors of insurrection. The bearded pig behind this rabble-rousing is called Garhal. Put an end to him... and make sure the other males see his demise.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Change of Scenery
Excellent. There's an exit in the eastern end of the mine that leads to Brunnhildar Village. Follow it and I'll meet you there. We must not be seen together so no one suspects you of aiding me. I'll use my magic to disguise my appearance. Do not worry, <race> -- we'll find your friend in no time.
