Head to Murnf and speak with Daresh, who is upstairs in the building west of the coach (for ease of quest completion, bind in Murnf). You are to find out everything you can from someone who works for an evil man named Bardif(without Bardif himself becoming aware of your enquiries) and about his kidnapped son Tarlin.
Go to Qeynos to speak with Bardif's butler, Mergmar. To find him: from the main gate, head west, then west again, south through the long hall, then the first east door. He sends you to a contact in Highpass.
Seek a dark elf named Pwin. Pwin can be found in the north section of HP, standing in the corral (the non-coach exit). Speak with him and report back to Daresh.
🔐 The Jailor
Daresh tells you that Pwin is associated with a small orc stronghold in Hate Spike. The Jailor there likely held the kidnapped boy overnight.
Head to Mt. Hate Spike (The Last Inn)(W). From the DM coach, go to the river and run north. Upon entering Hate Spike, go west up the first snowy valley to find the Bloodfoot Stronghold.
The Jailor(CONs darkblue @30) is down the ramp, right side at the end of the hallway, on the right side of the cavern.
He is always up, not a triggered spawn.
Kill him, loot the Unintelligible Note, and return to Daresh.
⚠️ Bloodfoot Bandits see through invis.
💰 Ricser
Daresh sends you to an Inn where Bardif’s messenger is waiting. His name is Ricser.
Location: Lost Watch Fort
Coach to Wyndhaven, then run north ~5 minutes along the road (Wynd NW)
Pay Ricser 1,600 tunar and return to Daresh
💍 Ziliq
The note reveals Tarlin was taken to the Green Rift and met with Ziliq.
Ziliq (CONs darkblue @30) is located in The Green Rift (W)
Coach to Bobble-by-Water, head west (long run, have SoW)
He is in a temple built into the side of the rift
Kill him, loot Ring of Gal'Saris, and seek Kipcah
🧭 Kipcah
Coach to FP, exit north gate (blacksmith) and head west to Marr’s Fist / Temple of Light (S)
Kipcah is in the center upon entering
He asks you to recover his spyglass from a Deathfist Lookout.
Deathfist Lookout (CONs yellow @30) is southwest in Deathfist Forge (NE), inside a hut
Kill, loot the spyglass, and return to Kipcah
The spyglass is broken. Kipcah sends you to Gligbin in Klick'Anon:
Gligbin is next to a wagon just inside the white gate
No tunar required
Return the repaired spyglass to Kipcah. He reveals Tarlin’s location.
🔓 Free Tarlin
Head to Deathfist Forge (S), southwest from Kipcah
Kill Urtwar(CONs red @30) at the top of the ramp on the right
Invis in; a cleric sees invis partway up
Loot the Orc Shackle Key, speak with Tarlin to free him
