Quest at a Glance

Journal objectives: 11
Time-sensitive steps: 0
Possible outcomes: 3

Step 1: You should talk to Lacra. We know our next steps.
Step 2: We know where Isbrand is – locked inside the caves near the uriash village. We have to go find him.
Step 3: We know where Isbrand is – locked inside the caves near the uriash village. I should catch up with the impatient Lacra and we should search for him.
Step 4: We've entered the cave complex near the village. Isbrand should be somewhere inside here. We must find him.
Step 5: The kobolds want to show us a better way to Chonk. We can follow their lead.
Step 6: We've struck an alliance with the kobold hive. They showed us a secret tunnel leading to Chonk's – the corrupted kobold leader's – chamber. We can use it to ambush him.
Step 7: We found the lair of the kobolds corrupted with vrakhiric essence. We must dispatch them.
Step 8: I shouldn't be surprised – with Chonk and his corrupted kobolds gone, the hive sniffed their chance to taste vrakhiri meat and attacked us. Now they all die.
Step 9: The kobolds are gone. We can finally talk to Isbrand.
Step 10: I decided to take a look around the chamber before leaving.
Step 11: Lacra is waiting for me by the cave near the uriash village. When I'm ready, it's time to go find Brencis's sire.
