Quest text

What the quest giver says.

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

For thousands of years, the Darkness was held at bay. The wards stood... protecting Highmountain. Now they are gone, and evil is free once more. The Darkness that haunted our dreams... that even the kobolds spoke of only in frightened whispers... has come. Uul'gyneth, herald of the Old Gods, paves the way for his masters. Unless we stand together and defeat him, all is lost. You must hold nothing back, champion. None of us can.
