[edit] Background
A few days ago, a group of Fighters Guild members had been sent to Forsaken Mine to clear out some trolls, yet they haven't been heard from since. Modryn Oreyn wants you to investigate.
[edit] Walkthrough
Head to Forsaken Mine and you'll notice the mine is devoid of life, aside from the trolls, rats, and a few mudcrabs that inhabit it.
While exploring the mine and eliminating Savage Trolls, you'll come across the dead bodies of several fighters guild members and a Blackwood Company Member. If you are proficient in heavy armor, you can use the high-quality Blackwood Armor he's wearing. Also you'll notice that the shield is the same as the broken shield in the Master's Son mission.
Head into the Forsaken Mine Lost Passages. Continue fighting more Savage Trolls and you'll eventually come across the body of Viranus Donton. Examine his body and read "A Bloody Journal" from his body. Apparently, as the Fighters Guild members were clearing out the mine, Blackwood Company members came in and fought them. Many on both sides were killed by either the Savage Trolls or by the Blackwood members.
Return to Oreyn with this information and for your reward.
[edit] Journal Entries
When you receive the quest:
- I have been told to report to Modryn Oreyn for assigned duties.
Once you report to Oreyn:
- Modryn Oreyn has given me another duty to perform. A band of fighters was contracted to clear the Forsaken Mine of trolls, but none of them have been heard from, including Viranus Donton. I am to go investigate.
After you find the body of Viranus:
- I found Viranus Donton dead. I should look for clues as to what happened here.
If you tell Oreyn about Viranus' death before reading his journal:
- I've told Oreyn that Viranus Donton is dead. He wants me to go back to Forsaken Mine and find proof of what happened.
After you read his journal:
- I've found a journal that Viranus Donton kept during his final days. In it, he describes how the mission went well until the Blackwood Company arrived. They battled, and he survived, gravely wounded. It appears he finally succumbed to his wounds. I should report this to Oreyn.
After you return with the journal to Oreyn:
- Oreyn was both angered and saddened by what I told him. He has asked that I allow him to tell Vilena Donton the news about her son. Until then, he suggests I find contract work to do.
[edit] Notes
Upon seeing Azzan or Burz gro-Khash you will be told that Oreyn was kicked out of the guild and you have been demoted to the rank of Defender.
