Be ready to face off against the likes of Arsonists, Hornets, Marauders, Slicers, Beasts, and Firebrands, each posing a unique challenge that tests your skills and resourcefulness.

With determination fueling your every step, you arrive at the imposing gates of Ked Bardu, their formidable presence a testament to the town's fortitude.

As you traverse the vibrant streets, a chance encounter brings you face to face with Daruuk, a charismatic NPC known for his jovial demeanor and tales of daring escapades. Intrigued by your purpose, Daruuk extends a helping hand, offering insights and guidance to aid you in your search for Lorath. Together, you navigate the labyrinthine streets, weaving through bustling crowds and colorful market stalls, each step drawing you closer to your goal.

Concerned for his well-being, you carefully approach, armed with a bucket of water to awaken him from his intoxicated slumber. As the cool liquid splashes upon his face, Lorath's eyes flutter open, his expression a mix of confusion and gratitude for your intervention.

Now fully awake and cognizant, Lorath reveals the gravity of the task at hand. He beseeches you to locate a woman named Teckrin, a skilled courier who holds vital messages essential to the progress of your mission. With unwavering determination, you embark on a new chapter of your adventure, seeking out Teckrin amidst the labyrinthine streets of Ked Bardu, each corner revealing a new mystery to unravel.

After a series of intriguing encounters and exchanges, you finally cross paths with Teckrin, a woman shrouded in an aura of enigma and purpose. Engaging her in conversation, you deftly navigate the delicate dance of diplomacy and persuasion, successfully acquiring the crucial messages that Lorath so desperately seeks.

With the weight of the mission on your shoulders, you make your way back to Lorath, your heart pounding with anticipation. As you deliver the invaluable messages and relay your encounters with Teckrin, a sense of accomplishment washes over you. The Main Quest, once a distant dream, has now reached its conclusion, marking a significant milestone in your heroic journey.
