Quest text

What the quest giver says.

‹name›, ‹class› and ‹race› stand for your character’s.

We are outnumbered by the Alliance. In their fear they send an army to crush a single settlement. But we will not give! Without resources, their soldiers will be at a disadvantage. Human peasants busy themselves in the woods outside Marshtide Watch, gathering lumber to rebuild their crumbling walls. Deny them the wood, and their lives.
