Walkthrough
Head north straight out of Quarrel Falls and then follow the road down into a valley. Follow this to its end and you will find Alari Doubleblade. You can then jump back to Quarrel Falls via the map. Walk out the entrance and talk to the scout you find near there. You can either follow him, though he runs off quickly, aggros monsters and dies easily, or you can map to Bloodstone Fen, which is much easier as the White Mantle are just outside it. Either way you will find them just outside Bloodstone Fen. Kill them all and take the armour they drop to Gareth. Note: when I did this there was a bug where not all of the White Mantle dropped armour. I was able to complete it by picking up those that they did, running to Bloodstone Fen and then running back to kill them again for the missing piece(s). After this just map back to Quarrel Falls and talk to Gareth.
