Detailed WalkthroughEdit
Captain Odreth plans to use Ayleid tunnels to get behind the Colovian front lines. Meet up with Sergeant Herdor just outside the tunnel entrance. She looks forward to starting the counterattack and beckons you to follow her into the tunnels.
Inside the RuinsEdit
As you enter the tunnels with Herdor she rallies the Vinedusk Rangers that are waiting inside. She then tells you to collect some alchemical mixture from a nearby crate and follow her to scout ahead. Follow her and you will find Herdor and Glooredel interrogating an Imperial prisoner about the Colovian leaders. Since the prisoner is initially resisting to give any information, Herdor needs you to convince the prisoner to start talking. You need to set fire to crates filled with kindlepitch—if the prisoner still doesn't talk then she will slowly die as the fire spreads from crate to crate. Start by setting fire to the first crate on the right. Frightened already, the Imperial captive tells Herdor everything. Glooredel then kills her quickly instead of letting the fire kill her slowly, saying, "You've earned this." If you helped rescue the villagers during the event of Oath of Excision, she will pull you aside, commend you, and reward you with a Ranger Rally Horn to summon reinforcements when you need it during the upcoming fight.[verification needed — Only get the horn after having rescued the villagers, or always?]
The Colovian CampEdit
You must burn seven Colovian tents, crates, barrels of kindlepitch, and siege weapons in order to create chaos. If you want to use the Ranger Rally Horn, it will summon two Vinedusk Rangers that will attack the nearby enemies. Be careful to space out your attacks; the horn has a reset timer, so it cannot be used in back-to-back fights. Also: once the "create chaos" step of the quest is complete, the horn will no longer be available, so do not expect reinforcements to help you get to the next step.
Once chaos has been sewn inside the camp, head south to Nendaer's Tomb to defeat the Colovian command unit. Colonel Festius, with his aides Sabina and Crispus, are waiting inside the tomb. Festius uses a restoration staff and a shock staff, and his aides use a two-handed mace (Sabina) and a shock staff (Crispus).
After you have defeated the Colovians, Captain Odreth and Herdor join you inside the tomb and head to the inner chamber to check on Nendaer's remains. As you join them in the tomb, you get to witness a short conversation between Odreth and the spirit of Nendaer. You can then talk to Odreth for your reward.
NotesEdit
- Unlike most areas in the game which consist of enemies of varying NPC classes, all enemies in the Legion camp consist of Highland Strikers, with the exception of two singular Highland Knights.
- While Sergeant Herdor tells you to start burning the crates plural, only one crate exists in the nearby tunnel and will be enough to complete the objective.
- While Sergeant Herdor says she is giving you a whistle to call for reinforcements in the camp, the whistle is called and depicted as a large blow horn when seen in the quest items and when used.
- While killing soldiers is described as a way to cause chaos in the camp in the objective description, killing groups of soldiers will not count as progress for the tally.
- While it is used throughout the camp to burn things, the admixture is not present in the quest items during the related objective.
- Once the objective to burn seven objects in the camp is completed, every single things that could be burned now appears on fire, even those that were left that you didn't interact with during the objective.
BugsEdit
- Glooredel's dialogue cuts off at the start when Sergeant Herdor first speaks to her in the corridor. ?

- Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
- Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
