  17. 17

However, if you kill Drogo Greatmane first, before going into The Falls he will drop the bloody heart and you will not have to walk through the Reed Bog area twice, saving a substantial amount of time.

    Reward Giver: Blade Warrior Derikk [Riverside Province]
  25. 25
    Difficulty and Comments: Accepting passage across the river will separate you from your party as each member needs to talk to him for themselves.
  26. 26
    Riverside Province [mis13]
    • Objective: Sneak into the temple and steal the Scepter of Orr. Get away to the northeast with the scepter of Orr. This quest can be done without fighting much of anything. The escape route is guarded by undead for the most part. All of the towers can be completely avoided by having one person walk up close. This will have the effect of the watchtower guards calling the other troops in, allowing your party to sneak by on the outside. When you reach Dinas you will get the Scepter of Orr and watch a movie. Open the nearby door and follow the path to the northeast. Eventually you will reach a boss blocking a bridge. In theory you are supposed to kill it and run the Scepter of Orr across the bridge. In reality, if you just walk a bit left of him, the movie will activate anyway.

    Bonus: The bonus is quite a different story. Instead of sneaking around the entire White Mantle, the bonus has you attack each of the guard towers. First, you need to defeat the enemies on the first tower. Then head southwest and talk to Saidra. She will speak of a need to allow supply trains to slip through the area, which requires the towers be neutralized. There are nine towers in all, each with about a dozen guys guarding it. This bonus takes a substantial amount of time, but is not all that hard as long as you do not attract all twelve of the White Mantle patrolling a tower at a time.
  28. 28
    Sanctum Cay [mis14]
    • Objective: Grab the Scepter of Orr from Evennia at the docks. Take out the first few fire imps. When you reach the beach to the south, the bonus is east. For the main mission, follow the river. Eventually you'll reach another beach. head east for a while and then back to the south. Cross the poisonous area with bone dragons and you will eventually come to a fort. In the Southeast corner of the Fort, the Vizier will appear. Give him the scepter. A movie will occur. After this, it's a linear road out to the docks. If you are doing the bonus, see below before getting to the docks. If not, go to the docks. The Vizier will appear and start summoning a boat. Protect him for a couple minutes while he summons it, get on. Mission Complete.
