Dialogue
- "I've been trying to tell your friends here how to get to the Ascalon Settlement, but the rude woman keeps interrupting me. The Settlement is northwest of here. You should be able to follow the signs and get there safely. Perhaps you could lead your friends there, <name>? I would take you myself, but there are rumors that the Shining Blade has been seen in the area."
- "Will you lead your friends to the Ascalon Settlement?"
Walkthrough
For Damaris to give the quest to you, you first have to wait until she finishes her conversation with the heroes, which will take half a minute or so.
This is a fairly straightforward quest, designed to lead you up to the settlement where a couple of other quests kick off and a skill trainer resides. Head almost due north along the road, and follow the signposts. It is nearly impossible to miss.
Consider doing the Merchant's Plea at the same time, since it requires travel to the same location.
Notes
- The settlement is not an outpost, so it is not possible to return there through map travel.
- All four Ascalon heroes must survive until you reach Captain Greywind in order to complete the quest.
- For those with the Factions campaign merged onto their Prophecies account, the conversation with Damaris may not appear until you have completed the quest Mhenlo's Request.
Tip
The four "Ascalon Heroes" (Devona, Mhenlo, Cynn and Aidan) make for an excellent group of henchmen. They are much more powerful than the henchmen available in Lion's Arch and also even more powerful than the average human player that you will typically find as a party member in Lion's Arch. With the Ascalon Heroes as your personal body guard you can cut through the North Kryta Province like a hot knife through butter (solo, that is).
You should activate the Ascalon Settlement quest to make the Heroes follow you around, but then take on and finish all the other quest in the North Kryta Province area (such as Duties of a Lionguard, Orrian Excavation, Graven Images, Bandit Trouble, The Last Hog) first, before you actually lead the Heroes to the Ascalon Settlement.
Note that the Heroes will not follow you when you leave the North Kryta Province.
