Find the Master's Bow
In the tavern, next to the Drop Anchor Inn, Kitzel Pierce stands at the counter. He is looking for his apprentice - a trainee. The trainee is in Dernholm; he is one of the Elite Bow Guards. Kitzel is a master of bows:
He asks you to find a bow lost somewhere in the castle ruins, and also to find out the location of his apprentice. Payment - training in bowmanship to mastery.
Find the Star of Azram
Next to Kitzel stands Clarissa Malmi. She is a master of throwing weapons. Clarissa asks you to find the Star of Azram - an ancient cup from the time of legends. Payment: Master weapon throwing training.
Return the safe to its owner
Daniel Holloway, the owner of the establishment, is standing in the hotel. He asks you to retrieve the blacksmith's safe. Payment: a free, lifetime room rental in his hotel.
Go to the blacksmith, find out why he's not giving up the safe, and then you can either persuade him to give it to you for free, as it brings him profit, or simply steal the chest key and steal it. In
Liam's Footsteps
Mrs. Cameron's son has gone missing. He had a workshop south of town, but he hasn't visited his mother for many years. Payment: the Magnetic Inversion Cap.
Go to the workshop, find the diary, then take it and read it. Break open the chest and take everything from it. There's a path south of his house - follow it and you'll see the would-be experimenter.
Take the magic trap from Cameron's body, then continue on, aim the trap at the portal, and the quest will be completed:
Return the gold to Dernholm
Now go to the mayor's office and ask the mayor to repay Blackroot's debt. He might offer you his quest: steal a ceremonial dagger from thieves. North of town is a river - wade across it and you'll see a camp of thieves.
You can kill them and steal the dagger, you can ransom the blade for 300 coins, or the master thief will offer you the entire contents of the mage's chest - you can kill him or simply complete another quest. The dagger is ours - give it to the mayor, and he'll give you the chest of gold.
Take the loot to King Praetor in Dernholm, the capital of Cambria. There's also a priest in the tavern by the docks—he can join your group. Now let's head to the main questline in Tarant.
