Description

You have been a great friend and ally to us, <name>. There is one more thing I must ask of you.

You have seen the corruption of the Twisted Glade and the beasts that dwell there. The blacksouled keepers will continue raising these abominations from the waters and soil of our glade unless we act against them.

The most powerful of the blacksouled keepers is known as Keeper Witherleaf. Slay him, <name>, and open the way for the redemption of the glade as you once redeemed my sisters.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Seeds of the Blacksouled KeepersHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    The glade to the northwest, now the Twisted Glade, used to be home to a number of keepers of the glade. Together with the sisters, they saw to the glade's upkeep. When the glade changed, the sisters died, but somehow the keepers managed to survive.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Book of RunesHowling Fjord · Level 10-30

    The vast rocky area to the southeast, Giants' Run, has been overrun by Iron Dwarves. Scouts have reported seeing the dwarves coaxing stone giants from the ground, then carving runes on them. I can't fathom their motives, but I suspect they're somehow trying to turn the giants into weapons.
