This is worse than I thought. The ogres were counting on us to stage a rescue attempt.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Right Beneath Their EyesExile's Reach · Level 7-10

    We need to get into Darkmaul Citadel, rescue the last survivor, and stop Gor'groth. Herbert and Crenna are going to cast a spell to make you look an ogre... and then you're going to take us in as your "prisoners." Speak with Herbert when you're ready.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Catapult DestructionExile's Reach · Level 7-10

    As we snuck in here I noticed the ogres erecting catapults to destroy our camp. Cork must have anticipated this and gave me several explosives to use, "just in case". Take these explosives and blow up those catapults! Also don't shake them too hard.
