Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Karuk's Oath
They call themselves the Kvaldir. My people have legends about them; we call them the tuk-hariq - walkers of the fog. My village was destroyed by these giant mist-men. Everyone I knew was slain, including my father Ariut. By tuskarr law I must seek retribution against those who shed my kin's blood.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Father's Words
There is someone who might shed light on this mystery, <race>. It is rumored that the Kvaldir have kept a naga priestess alive at the temple on the west side of the shore. She will no doubt have great reason to resent her uninvited Kvaldir guests.
