Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Breaking the BonespeakersStormheim · Level 10-45

  The crimes of these ritualists must not go unpunished, but we cannot be their executioners. The rune magic they practice grants them untold power over the dead. You, however, are not dead, and I can sense great power from you.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• The Final JudgmentStormheim · Level 10-45

  In my fragmented state, I captured glimpses of a hero meting out justice to the corrupted mystics of Haustvald. I see now, this hero was you, <class>. I know you seek my judgment, but my spirit is still fragmented.
