Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• No-Landing ZoneTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

  These pirates are ruthless - they're bringing in landing boats to cut off our escape! The guards are down at the riverside holding them off, but I'm afraid they'll be overrun before my family and I can get away!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Farmers Who FightTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

  I was hoping for a squad of Proudmoore Academy's finest, but I guess you'll have to do. What we lack in manpower we make up for in courage! Even the farmers here won't give up their land without a fight. Send the bravest of them to me.
