Dialogue
 * "You have come to help me find new recruits, yah? Good.  I can use all the help I can get.  Recent attacks from the Luxons have spurred our youth into action, and they are signing up for the army faster than I can fill out the paperwork.  I'm not complaining, but if you could go out into the foothills and help bring some of those eager recruits here, it would be a big help, yah."

Intermediate Dialogue (when you deliver a recruit)
 * "I am honored to serve my time with the Kurzick army."

Walkthrough
Your main goal is to bring 4 recruits back to Recruiter Sigmund you don't have to bring them all at once though you can bring 1, 2, 3 or 4 recruits to him. There are 8 in total available, but you may not recruit more than 4 at one time. If one that you've already recruited dies, you can use a replacement recruit from those remaining.

The recruits are scattered across the map. There is no map indicator for them, so you must wander around until you run across them. They are in the same locations every time. When you have a recruit in your team Luxon forces can appear, mostly in small groups of 2.

This is a useful quest to start if you plan to do other quests in this area, as the recruits are hardy and add extra firepower to your team. The recruits follow you faithfully but slowly, thus they have a tendency to come late to battles or get stuck on corners. If you lose one or two you can always recruit more and still complete the quest.

If you leave the map during the quest, the quest is lost. Therefore you must complete the quest before leaving the map to receive your reward. If you do leave the map, you can get the quest again and start over.

This quest is repeatable.

Bug
There is a bug that occurs if you let a recruit or two die, but the journal still considers those recruits towards the quest goal. This means that not only can you not get anymore recruits (the other recruits will just ignore you), but it also means the NPC will not offer the quest reward either.
