Walkthrough[править]
Talk to Apatia (who is impressed with you) and determine to free all the prisoners especially Hywel. Then go to the marker at the bottom of the lake, talk to the prisoner, and find out you need to kill the slavemaster who then spawns and circles the lake slowly with his two shark body guards. Make sure there are no random Krait around when and where you engage. Apatia is tough but does little damage and you should encourage her to take their agro by first engaging then retreating a little. This is the only tough battle. Free the prisoners at the bottom of the lake.
Proceed out of the lake to the platform in the middle and then up about 2/3 tower to free more prisoners. Krait can push you back and off the tower so make sure you have platforms to your back. The first ramp is near the Krait <cannon> which could be destroyed before approaching. The ramps up are all flat. There are a few single Krait to defeat. Defeat the Krait guarding the prisoners and then free them. Proceed to the very top of the tower; the ramps up are tied logs. Defeat the Veteran at the top and free Hywell.
Talk to Hywell to get more information about the near term story line. Finally talk to Apatia and choose which Order you will get help from next. That choice ends the mission.

Dialogue[править]
The briefing letter from Trahearne:
Marshal Trahearne
Krait Slavers On Nonmoa Lake
Commander,
As we discussed, krait slavers have been taking anyone they can catch on or near the waters of Nonmoa Lake. These aren't just innocents, they're potential Pact recruits, so it's imperative that we free the prisoners and shut down the slavers. I've got Crusader Apatia, formerly of the Lionguard, standing by on the lakeshore. She remembers you from the Claw Island and is quite keen to work with you again Good luck.
—Marshal Trahearne
Upon entering the shore of Nonmoa Lake
- Crusader Apatia: Commander! Over Here.
- Crusader Apatia: Good to see you again, Commander. After Claw Island, I've been looking forward to working with you again.
- Crusader Apatia: On to business: Our main problem in this region is krait. We're losing too many potential recruits to their slave pens.
- Crusader Apatia: Our mission is to rescue as many slaves as possible, thought a slyvari prisoner named Hywel is top priority. He's a warden of exceptional skill.
- <Character name>: Understood, Crusader. Each prisoner we free is an innocent, and a potential recruit against Zhaitan.
- Crusader Apatia: Exactly. They're going to waste, rotting in a krait cell. And Commander, I'd be honored if you'd call me "Apatia."
- Crusader Apatia: Krait usually keep their slaves down deep. We should start low and move up.
Upon getting close to the lower slave pens
- Krait Slave Guard: We have visitors. Don't bother with capture. Just kill them!
- Cassius Prideclaw: Hey! Over here!
Talking to Cassius:
- I ain't dead yet—get me out of here! These sneaky devils have been torturing us, and now they're talking about eating us. Let me out so I can fight!
- Where's the key?
- Slavemaster's got 'em. He hangs on to 'em tight, too. The previous one got careless, got skinned and gutted by a prisoner. Heh.
- This one's headed for the same fate. I'll be back soon.
- Where do I find the slavemaster?
- Shouldn't be hard. Just look for the biggest, ugliest krait you can find. He's got a pair of sharks thet patrol with him.
- That's all I needed to know. See you soon.
- This place seems like it's on high alert. What's going on?
- Something big. They're all talking about a magical org they found and how best to use it. Can't make sense of it, but they're all stirred up.
- All right. I'll be back shortly with the slavemaster's key.
- How do I find this slavemaster?
- Something big. They're all talking about a magical org they found and how best to use it. Can't make sense of it, but they're all stirred up.
- Shouldn't be hard. Just look for the biggest, ugliest krait you can find. He's got a pair of sharks thet patrol with him.
- This place seems pretty busy for just another slave tower.
- Sounds like justice. Hang on, I'll be right back.
- Slavemaster's got 'em. He hangs on to 'em tight, too. The previous one got careless, got skinned and gutted by a prisoner. Heh.
- Not right now, but I swear I won't leave without you.
- Where's the key?
After killing the slavemaster
- Crusader Apatia: I have the keys! Release that charr and we'll put him to work.
Talking to Cassius:
- Good. You made it back. Did you get the keys? And more importantly, did you slit that slavemaster's throat?
- I have the keys. Let's get you out of there.
- Perfect. And I'll return the favor by getting everyone else out of these cells. Down here, that is: the krait keep more prisoners higher up in the tower.
- You release everyone down here. I'll keep climbing.
- Who do they keep in the upper cells?
- Not sure, but I think they put important or dangerous prisoners up there to keep an eye on 'em. To be honest, I'm mad I didn't qualify.
- That's probably where we'll find Hywel. Thanks, Cassius.
- Not sure, but I think they put important or dangerous prisoners up there to keep an eye on 'em. To be honest, I'm mad I didn't qualify.
- Hang on. I'll be right back.
- Perfect. And I'll return the favor by getting everyone else out of these cells. Down here, that is: the krait keep more prisoners higher up in the tower.
- It's like this place is on high alert. What's happening?
- I have the keys. Let's get you out of there.
After freeing the charr
- Crusader Apatia: We should look higher, in the tower. There'll be more prisoners there.
As you get closer to the upper slave pens
- Crusader Apatia: This looks promising. This way!
- Crusader Apatia: These planks are so thin and flimsy. Snow Leopard, guide our steps.
- Crusader Apatia: I guess these ramps are easier if you slither.
- Crusader Apatia: Whoa! No, it's all right. I almost slipped.
- Crusader Apatia: Slavers make me sick. I swear, I'm going to tan an entire suit of krait-skin armor.
- Crusader Apatia: We're almost out of the tower. We're getting close.
- Crusader Apatia: Nearly there. I can feel it.
- Crusader Apatia: There are warriors...and more guards. Come on, Commander, I'll watch your back.
- Crusader Apatia: I think warden Hywel is up here.
- Crusader Apatia: There he is. Do you see him?
Talking to Hywel
- Thank the Mother Tree—and thank you. The Pact, you say? Please, you have to free us.
- We'll have you out of here in no time, Warden.
After you freed Warden Hywel
- Crusader Apatia: Warden Hywel, we've come to get you out of here. Are there any other prisoners we should find?
- Warden Hywel: I don't think so. There was a largos, but she escaped on her own. Strange and terrifying creature, that one.
- Warden Hywel: Apparently, she got herself captured to get close to the slavemaster because he was "worthy prey." Then she let herself out and went after him.
- Warden Hywel: Another thing: the krait kept talking about a magical orb they use to keep Zhaitan's corruption out. I never saw a single undead creature here. I think their orb could be real.
- Crusader Apatia: That may be. There's no corruption in these waters, even thought the Orrians definitely have a presence here.
- <Character name>: This orb is definitely worth investigating. For now, thought, let's concentrate on getting you and the others to safety.
Talking to Apatia:
- We've freed a lot of prisoners, rescued Hywel, and killed most of the krait slavers here. Are we done?
- Not quite. We need to know more about that orb.
- I agree. If Hywel is right, and it can prevent Zhaitan from raising the dead, that orb could make alll the difference in this war.
- We should start with the largos Hywel mentioned.
- Right. He said she mentioned hunting in the waters south of here. But how do we go about finding someone who's dedicated to not being found and expert at not being seen?
- The Vigil has soldiers all over. Maybe they've seen something.
- ?
- Nothing gets by the Order of Whispers. Check in with them.
- Good idea. I know a Whispers agent named Zrii. She's a top-flight infiltrator, so she may know this largos—they're practically in the same line of work.
- ?
Good. That largos is about to learn what it's like to be tracked down.
- ?
Excellent. If we find the largos, we can convince her.
- You're too kind. Listen, I'll find out what I can and meet you south of here. Hywel said that's where the largos went to find new prey, so that's where we'll start.
- Sounds great. See you there.
With your help, I figure we can do just about anything.
- You're too kind. Listen, I'll find out what I can and meet you south of here. Hywel said that's where the largos went to find new prey, so that's where we'll start.
- We'll have to play it by ear. Meet me south of here when you're ready.
- Good idea. I know a Whispers agent named Zrii. She's a top-flight infiltrator, so she may know this largos—they're practically in the same line of work.
- Knowledge is Priory's main commodity. They may know something.
- Smart...which I've come to expect from you Priory folks. I'll tell them you need this info as soon as possible.
- ?

- Almost. What do you know about largos?
- Not much. They're capable and efficient killers. They usually work alone and keep to themselves—and assassination isn't a job to them, it's a way of life.
- We need to find this one and learn more about the orb.
- Give me a moment to review the situation.
- Not much. They're capable and efficient killers. They usually work alone and keep to themselves—and assassination isn't a job to them, it's a way of life.
- I need to think this over before I answer.
- Not quite. We need to know more about that orb.
