Runes of Compulsion

Description

Even as Kurun attacks Thor Modan, the iron dwarves work their magics against our brothers. Summoning our brothers from the earth, then binding them with runes, the sons of iron force them to war against the children of stone.

Along the Eastwind Shore, they use runes of compulsion to send enslaved giants to the battlefields of the north.

Find the four runes of compulsion and force their overseers to appear by defeating the rune-weavers who man each rune. Without the overseers, the runes are useless.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • GavrockGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    Without your help, we wouldn't have been able to turn the tide of the battle for Thor Modan. This ancient city has long been a battlefield between the forces of earth and stone. I can only hope we have silenced it for the last time.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Latent PowerGrizzly Hills · Level 15-30

    While the runes of compulsion are dormant, there is a chance we can release the runed giants. I will give you a piece of stone that has been part of me since my creation. If properly imbued, it can be used to free the bound giants.
