A Traitor's Death

A Traitor's Death is an Alliance-only quest for level 20-60 in Drustvar. It is step 8 of 10 in the Caring about Corlain storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Drustvar at 31.5, 30.1. It rewards 8 reward items, 1 reputation reward, 10,200 experience and money.

Description

It has come to my attention that you intend to assault the camp outside of the walls. If this is so, I have a request.

Though most of the guardsmen who fight against us were turned to the coven against their will, Captain Goodspeed and his brigade of halberdiers gave their souls willingly to the Heartsbane. They are traitors and an affront to the Waycrest Guard.

You will find Goodspeed and his men stationed at the camp. I would consider it a personal favor if you would cut them down to the last.

Rewards

You will be able to choose one of these rewards:
