Detailed Walkthrough

Speak with Hanilan

After reporting to Elenwen that the villagers are safe, she will tell you to talk to Hanilan.

"Hanilan, of the First Auridon Marines, at your service."

Who do you think is responsible for this attack?

"Thrice-damned lowlifes are no marines, I can tell you that much. In fact, Commander Tendil's detachment should have been here a long time ago. I think they were ambushed."

Any idea where they might have taken them?

"One of the villagers you rescued said he saw bound men being herded into the cellar of a house north of the village square. I can't leave my post, but perhaps you could investigate?"

Alternatively, during Silsailen Rescue, you can find a Folded Note on the body of a dead Heritance Cutthroat. Read this note in your inventory.

"We've intercepted the marines. Their extra gear has been stashed for future use. As ordered, none were slain in the ambush. They're bound in the cellar beneath the meeting point.

For the Veil!"

The entrance to the cellar is found on the north side of a house on the north end of Silsailen. You'll find out that Captain Tendil and his men are indeed tied up in the cellar. Speak with Captain Tendil, who is tied up in the center.

"Thank The Eight! Quickly! Untie us!"

Who are you?

"Captain Tendil of the First Auridon Marines. We were sent here at the behest of Her Royal Majesty, Queen Ayrenn.
We walked into a trap. Agents of the Veiled Heritance stripped us of our uniforms and gear and left us here to burn."

The imposters are burning the town. Where are your weapons?

"We have a stash at the farm near the edge of town. Return them to us.
I'll personally see that every last imposter dies, screaming for mercy!"

Location of one of the supply caches

Find each of the three crates scattered around the western edge of town. One is located inside a house, another inside a barn, and another by a fence. Once you have retrieved the Marines' Supplies, Marines' Armor, and Marines' Weapons, return to Captain Tendil in the cellar to complete the quest..

"Any luck?"

I have your gear.

"We'll gear up and patch our wounds. In the meantime, find out who's behind this conspiracy.
I'll send one of my best men along with you, to help loosen some tongues. Stars guide your steps."

Exit the cellar and speak to Elenwen just outside to begin Teldur's End. True to his word, one of the Marines will become a temporary follower to help you in the follow-on quest.

Notes

* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.

• Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
• Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
