Quests

• Trial of the Merciful Hand — Evlampius will not hear you speak of grace until you carry real bandages to those who bleed. Recover the field supply and deliver it to her.
• Trial of the Divine Spark — Evlampius demands that you raise the road fire and cleanse the ring of revenants, so the road sees light before darkness again.
• Trial of the Guarding Vow — Evlampius sends you into the Thieves’ Burrow to put darkness back where it belongs: underground, not on the road to the survivors.
• Trial of Construction — Solomon trusts hands, not talk. Inspect the mauled wagon, understand what gave way, craft any working piece, and return to him.
• Trial of the Gadget — Solomon wants living material, not another rusty story. Recover a spring node from the spiders near the Abandoned Manor and bring it to him.
• Trial of the Exoframe — Solomon wants to know whether your assembly holds under a real assault. Clear the Thieves’ Burrow and return with your verdict on what…
• Trial of the Elemental Spark — The Spellbinder sends you to the Hermit’s Hut to draw fire flashes from the thicket imps.
• Trial of the Rune Link — The Spellbinder demands that you ignite the field signal stone and hold the flow until the magical noise around it thins out.
• Trial of the Destructive Impulse — To prove you can break as well as bind, the Spellbinder sends you into the Thieves’ Burrow. Smash the gang’s knot and return.
• Trial of the Sacred Flame — Burning Prokop orders you to raise the signal flame and burn back the revenants pushing toward the road from the Cursed Ring.
• Trial of Roadward Justice — Prokop orders you to drive the tax-bandits from the Settlers’ Camp. The road must not pay tribute to brigands.
• Trial of the Bulwark — Prokop has you clear the North Verge of predators. The caravan must pass under your protection, not by anyone else’s mercy.
