Dialogue (from the Quest Log)

"Ah, , how I treasured this little shred of tapestry as a child. I remember the day I gave it to you. For you to have held on to it for so many years... well, it warms my heart to know I was not forgotten. Please, allow me to hold it once more. I wish to keep it as a token of our friendship. So long as I hold this, I will know that there are some things in life that cannot be taken away from you.

There's something I would like to give you in return. I didn't think the day would come for me to say this, but we must return to my home... our home... to Ascalon. We must head to the Diessa Lowlands, where I was held prisoner for a time. I have something hidden there, that I want you to have. Will you accompany me?"

Intermediate Dialogue 1 (Gwen)

Walkthrough
Take Gwen and other heroes and leave from Nolani Academy. This area will now be filled with level 20 Charr as they appear in the Charr Homelands, however they aren't as large in groups so you have a better chance. Follow the quest marker to the ruins and carefully begin to pick off the Charr groups from a distance. The ranger Charr boss is still the same level he allways was so he's an easy morale boost if you need it. This shouldn't cause any major problems, even with 1 healer, if you have someone who can attack at range, it will help greatly in taking out Charr from where they cannot get to you thanks to the map layout.

Upon defeating the Charr you'll free Duke Barradin and Farrah Cappo who will lead you inform you of the new boss in Old Ascalon. Leave from Sardelac Sanitarium and go south, taking out the Charr carefully as you go (They are level 20 here too). The boss is lightly guarded and can be taken out without many problems. Once you do this, Gwen will take you to where the farmer kept his pigs in Ashford and ask you to kneel and search for something. Doing this gives you Gwen's Flute (Unique) and a conversation with Gwen about her friendship with the character. To end the quest, talk to the Duke in Piken Square.
