Description

When we settled here, that Hold was just a quiet creepy place that we avoided. Then the elves came back from the dead. With your help we thought it was mostly handled. But now it feels like an army is attacking us!

We could use more healing at our defense lines. More undead arrive and we have less and less protectors each wave. Any aid to our wounded would be welcomed!

Look for defenders who are green from poison, or who are lying down outside the stone walls of the town.

You have to actually use your spells to heal them, there is no quest item.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Restoration: The Bradensbrook InvestigationLevel 45
We have uncovered forged orders from the Shore. They have a fel influence about them. They guide the reader to believe they are legitimate. It orders Black Rook Hold to attack a "demonic enclave" just south of their walls. There's only one enclave they could be talking about, Bradensbrook!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Quieting the SpiritsLevel 45
An overwhelming attack on Bradensbrook is imminent. Together I believe we can blunt the spear before it is cast. While we are dealing with the commanders, we should put down as many unquiet spirits as we can.

The Black Rook Threat has 12 steps, from Holy: The Bradensbrook Investigation to A Gift From the Six.
