Pottur

Dialogue:

  • Pottur: Stop, Stop, Stop!
  • Pottur: This isn’t working. Great, now a Ragni soldier is here for a progress report.
  • Pottur: Soldier, we haven't made any progress getting to Garoth.
  • Pottur: Truth is, we simply don't know enough about him to know how to deal with this.
  • Pottur: Maybe if you could help us find out more we could figure this out.
  • Pottur: Garoth, many years ago lived and studied in Elkurn. It might be a good place to start.

Stage 2[]

» Head to Elkurn and see if any of the townsfolk know anything about Garoth's old study area.

Viraex

Dialogue:

  • Viraex: Garoth? Sorry that name doesn't ring a bell. He could have lived here, but...
  • Viraex: The buildings here have been destroyed and rebuilt so many times.
  • Viraex: If you say he lived here many years ago, the oldest building is the church.
  • Viraex: Now that you mention it, there were odd stories about the basement of the church.
  • Viraex: My grandfather told me about it. I still have a key to the place, you are welcome to check it out for yourself.
  • Viraex: I heard they found some weird rooms down there so they just left the place alone. Wise move, if you ask me.

Garoth'sJournal

Dialogue:

  • Garoth's Journal: Day 4: The year is 623 AP. My base of operations has been completed, along with a safety bunker.
  • Garoth's Journal: Day 18: It's become extremely dangerous to continue my studies. With the Twains gone, the corrupt run wild.
  • Garoth's Journal: Day 53: My studies have yielded poor results. I know only what we already knew.
  • Garoth's Journal: That simple creatures become enraged and corrupt, the fallen both old and new will rise near corruption.
  • Garoth's Journal: Day 91: My studies have hit a wall. I know from my extended stay that humans will not corrupt through proximity or touch.
  • Garoth's Journal: The corruption seems to affect everything differently. Land, animal, human, mind. It's incomprehensible.
  • Garoth's Journal: Day 147: I fear there is nothing else to do but study the portal entrance for myself.
  • Garoth's Journal: If there is a "cure" I'm sure it will have something to do with understanding the portal.
  • Garoth's Journal: I leave this journal in the hopes that it will be found and help those understand this plight better than I. Though I admit, my information is not helpful.
  • Garoth's Journal: The corruption acts independently and without intelligence. It does not think, it simply does. It's like an idea, a concept. An idea is something that can not be destroyed.
  • The book shows a small map of the Nether Portal and the surrounding area, along with a big red ''X'' at one of the caves in the south area closest to Elkurn.

Stage 4[]

» Search around the south side of the Nether Portal for the old camp. The X on the map marked near [297, 40, -1223]

Dialogue:

  • Adventuring Mage: What business does a Ragni soldier have here? These are restricted grounds!
  • Adventuring Mage: Finding Garoth's old camp? Yes, it's been said to be around here, but it's old, and the entrance has probably fallen apart.
  • Adventuring Mage: How about you look around here, it should be very near, and when you have found it, I'll help you open it!

AdventuringMage

Dialogue:

  • Adventuring Mage: *Mumbling* ... Hey what are you doing here! This is off limits!
  • Adventuring Mage: Right, finding Garoth's old camp...
  • Adventuring Mage: You say the blocked off entrance is over there?
  • Adventuring Mage: I doubt you'd be able to move it with any spell you know.
  • Adventuring Mage: Well, allow me to assist.
  • Adventuring Mage: The spells around here have to be a bit stronger to deal with the... Well, you know.
  • Adventuring Mage: Wait for it...
  • Adventuring Mage: And there you go. I hope you find what you’re looking for. Get out of here as soon as you’re done.

Dialogue:

  • Garoth's Note: This... was a mistake. Beyond the portal holds no answers.
  • Garoth's Note: I can feel my mind slipping through my very mindscape, I fear this may be my very last entry.
  • You visualize Garoth's next few words...

  • Garoth's Note: As I studied the portal closely, I found myself staring for hours, longing to enter. Just as I forced myself to leave.. I was pushed.
  • His final notes...


  • Dried stains of red can be seen on the page...


  • Garoth's Note: Briefly.. I saw beyond. I do not have the words to describe... Cold yet searing. Land plagued by war and disease, and then I saw... it.

Stage 5[]

» Bring the acquired knowledge regarding the spell used for the sanctuary sealing back to the mages at the sanctuary bridge.

Pottur

Dialogue:

  • Pottur: Hey, youngling over there! Do you have anything of use to us yet? Come talk to me if you do!
  • Pottur: Welcome back soldier. Still no luck here I'm afraid. Did you find out anything about Garoth's past?
  • Pottur: ... I see. We had no idea he was corrupted. We didn't even consider that for a second!
  • Pottur: Well if that's the case it might just be a simple case of...
  • Pottur: Success!
  • Pottur: I can't believe it was that simple. Magic can be like forcing a square into a circle, you just got to change your tact. Thanks for your help soldier.
