Dialogue

Initial dialogue

Captain Arne

"Our troops at the Frontier Gate report a concentration of Charr near the Wall. They have spotted columns of smoke that suggest the Flame Keepers have set up an altar there. The Flame Keepers' altars serve as a source of power for the Charr and must be destroyed if we wish to hold the Wall. Since the King's Army refuses to venture north of the Wall, I need a volunteer to lead a sortie northeast and destroy the Flame Keepers."

 Accept: "I'll take care of it."

 Decline: "I'm sorry. I have other things I must do."

 Ask: "The fires still burn and the Charr grow more powerful while we speak! Time is not on our side. Gather a party immediately and travel to the Frontier Gate, then head northeast to the Charr camp. Hurry!"

Reward dialogue

Captain Arne

"Excellent work extinguishing the Charr's fires. Without their altars, they lose much of their power. The army won't venture north of the Wall, so it falls to the Vanguard, and volunteers such as yourself. Your assistance won't be forgotten."

Notes

• The 10/10 Sundering Sword Hilt can be salvaged from the Long Sword.
