Troll Trouble
We're receiving alarming news from every corner of this vast barony: here, there and everywhere, rampant hordes of trolls are wreaking havoc! The desperate people cry out for a protector, begging us to come and fend off these ravaging monsters. Of course, it's the sacred duty of the sovereign to locate the hiding places of these foul foes and give them bloody hell!
Objectives
Find the troll lair
This whole mess of trolls can't just roam around all the time. They surely must have a hidden base! Or a lair, at least. A stinky, filthy troll lair!
According to Kesten, the troll lair is located somewhere in the Narlmarches.
Ekundayo the ranger has been hunting these trolls for a long time. He has several ideas about where we should focus our search!
Somewhere in this region there's an ancient abandoned dwarven fortress. Could it be the dwelling of our foes? Oh, if only those dwarves could see it – they would tear off their beards in anger!
Find out more about the trolls
To deal with the trolls, we must first learn more about them.
Usually, trolls are vulnerable to fire and acid – but our trolls bear brands that make them fireproof! What wizardry is this? – And who's behind it?
Trolls and kobolds are wild creatures, not much smarter than animals if you ask me. To call them barbarians would be flattery. But ours are strangely organized. It seems they're trying to build their own kingdom! Now I've heard it all!
Kobolds are nasty little creatures. Bigger monsters only tend to notice them if they happen to step on one. And yet, surprisingly, kobolds here are treated with respect. This is very suspicious... The local kobolds hold one of their own in high esteem – a shaman named Tartuk. How do you impress such despicable creatures anyway? By being the most vile and cowardly of them all?
These trolls have a leader named Hargulka. I bet he's the fattest and ugliest of them all!
Check up on the reclusive mage
It seems that several trolls are maundering around the house of a strange hermit mage in the Narlmarsches. We need to learn whether this mage is conspiring with the monsters – or in need of our help!
Destroy the troll lair
We've located the troll lair. Now we're ready to destroy this bed of evil, once and for all – to root them out mercilessly with all our might!
The troll's leader, Hargulka, has finally appeared! Let's get him!
Keep track of passing time!
If left unchecked, the troll bands will soon overrun the barony!
