Description
The crimes of these ritualists must not go unpunished, but we cannot be their executioners. The rune magic they practice grants them untold power over the dead. You, however, are not dead, and I can sense great power from you. Take the fight to these heretics, and show Ashildir that you are truly worthy of her judgment!

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Runes that Bind
The stone tablet here describes a ritual where a powerful spirit can be broken into weaker pieces by binding them to special runestones. It looks like the Bonespeakers may be using this very ritual to weaken the spirit of Ashildir. It may be impossible to summon her with her spirit so weakened.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Waking the Shieldmaiden
With the rituals disrupted and her bones returned, we may be able to wrest Ashildir from the grasp of these Bonespeakers. Deeper within Haustvald, the mystics possess a special altar that can reunite the body and spirit of a fallen warrior.
