Your uncle made sure to lead you past the gallows, where a corpse turned on the rope. A raven picked happily at its face. 'Folly is an easy path to walk,' your uncle said. 'But the ending's hard.'

Your cousin rolled his eyes. The gallows held no fear for him, and he admired ravens. You hid a smile. He always made time for you. His friends treated you like you were one of them. Maybe, sometimes, you followed him down some of those wayward paths.

He's a fierce defender and a ne'er-do-well, a loyal friend and a breaker of hearts.

An occurrence! Your 'Bond: Your Cousin' Quality is now 3!

You've lost 10 x Memories of Home (new total 2).

The Bellringer's Tomb

The Bellringer brought the Toller faith to your home of Gallowmoor. His faithful carved his tomb from a mountain's foot.

Airic performed three miracles with his Bell.

The first: he drove the wolves from Gallowmoor.

The second: he shattered King Ethred's bloody throne.

And the third: he called all the faithful to the mountain peak, before the Queen of Fires descended to lay waste to all of Gallowmoor.

Always

Save the tanner's daughter

Lured by the bell, she entered the tomb. She hasn't emerged.

This is an easy quest, suitable for starting characters.

Retrieve the saint's bones

The abbey has fallen on hard times. A relic would give the friars solace and - just as importantly - attract the pilgrim trade.

This quest is of moderate difficulty.

Retrieve the Bell itself

It's said there's one miracle left in the old bell.

A challenging quest for advanced characters.

The Outlaw

The althing has condemned them to the gallows, but the outlaw has fled where they think no one will follow...

This is a minor quest that can be undertaken in any dungeon. You can choose a difficulty and the game will select a random quarry and a twist to complicate the pursuit. It's less story-focused than the major quests, but is highly replayable and a good way to gain experience before trying a more difficult quest.


Last words

Before the Bellringer departed for the Isles of Fire, he told a disciple that if the Bell is rung on a high place the Lord of Tolls will hear and grant a mercy. Three days after he left, the saint's blackened bones fell from the sky, raining on the old chapel he founded. His disciple was driven mad. The bell was interred in the tomb with the Bellringer's bones.

You need to descend into the Tomb, find the bell's resting-place, and return it to the world above.
