What to do
Description
Let me tell you a story. Once, there was a foolish troll named Zengu. He was tasked to find the sword Trol'kalar, the legendary blade of the human Trollbane line. He succeeded, and thinking his task done, went to leave Arathi by himself. There he was cut down by the humans, and the sword simply reclaimed. We will not be so foolish. Our apothecaries have given us the perfect guide to reobtain Trol'kalar: the prince who once held it. He stands ready to guide you, {name}. Speak with him.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- First Blood
Be prepared, <name>. You will cast the first blood upon this land for us. The Syndicate, as they call themselves, are cowardly humans who betray even their own kind. Their isolation will make them easy prey.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Sigil of Strom
In ancient times, Lord Ignaeus of Strom, named Trollbane, led the first human civilization of Arathor in war against the trolls. His blade was Trol'kalar--troll slayer, in their ancient tongue. I was one of the last of his line, sworn with guarding Trol'kalar...a duty in which I failed.
