Dialogue
 * "The Mursaat have taken Thunderhead Keep! Jalis ordered my scouts, Korg and Onar, ahead to learn what they can and to find the one the ancient texts call the Seer.  It is said that he can fashion a set of armor capable of protecting one against Mursaat magic.  Most like a tale told over a flagon of ale, but in these times who knows.  I expected a report by now...something must have held them up.  I'd feel better if ye went after them."

Intermediate Dialogue (Korg Snowfoot)
 * "Ol' Bronzebeard sent ya? Too cold out in the woods for that lazy man? He used to be a Ranger like the rest of us. Jalis gives him a title and he thinks its his right to sit by the fire and enjoy a pint.


 * Have I found anything?"

Walkthrough
This is a brief primary quest, leading you a short distance from Droknar's Forge, through Talus Chute in a generally northeastern direction, to the cooperative mission outpost, the Ice Caves of Sorrow.

The only difficult part of the quest is keeping the scouts alive. Once Korg the Scout is in mini-map range, a short distance from Droknar's Forge, he will be beset by a patrol of Stone Summit Gnashers (which replace the Avicara that are normally in the area). You may have to move quickly in order to save him. If he dies, you cannot move onto the second step of this quest and will have to reenter Talus Chute if you wish to try it again. One tactic could be to engage them first. Also, try bringing a human monk because henchmen will not heal Korg.

Following the new quest arrow after speaking to Korg, you will find Onar Ironblood on a bridge near a sizeable group of Stone Summit Gnashers. He is usually not being attacked by these Stone Summit, so you can either bypass these enemies or take your time in killing them before speaking to Onar.

Finally, Blade Scout Shelby will be waiting for you in the Ice Caves of Sorrow to give you your quest reward.

Tip: It seems the game stocks parts of the zone with a different set and/or level of mobs, depending on whether you have this quest. If you are planning to travel north of Droknar's Forge, or Ice Caves of Sorrow, you may find it easier going to leave this quest uncompleted until later.
