Dialogue[ | ]

Private Wilfred
Thank the gods!

When I saw the dracolich attack the ship I was afraid there would be no survivors.

What brings you to Neverwinter in such troubled times?


Player
I am seeking adventure and riches!
Private Wilfred
Adventure I can guarantee...

Riches is up to you.

As you may have noticed, Neverwinter is under attack. The necromancer Valindra is assaulting the city with her undead legions.

Plenty of opportunities for an aspiring adventure to make a fortune!

Search the wreckage along the shore for your gear. It's dangerous to go unarmed right now.

When you finish, head up to the camp at the top of the hill. They've got a nice warm fire up there. You'll feel better once you've dried out.


Player
Neverwinter is my home.
Private Wilfred
Welcome home... I think. Not a very auspicious homecoming is it?

Neverwinter is under attack. The necromancer Valindra is assaulting the city with her undead legions.

When you finish, head up to the camp at the top of the hill. They've got a nice fire up there. You'll feel better once you've dried out.


Player
That is my business.
Private Wilfred
Sorry, didn't mean to pry. It's just now is not a good time to be traveling here.

Player
I...I don't remember.
Private Wilfred
Being attacked by a dracolich and then nearly drowned is quite a shock to the system. I'm sure it will come back to you.

In the meantime, you should search the beach for gear. It's not safe here with Valindra's undead prowling around.

When you finish, head up to the camp at the top of the hill. They've got a nice fire up there. You'll feel better once you've dried out.


Player
Thanks, I will.

Completion[ | ]

Lt. Linkletter
It's good to see someone survived the attack on the ship!

When you feel ready, please speak to me again. I'm afraid I need your help.
