Walkthrough

As soon as the introduction cutscene ends, talk to Corporal Beirne who will shout to get everybody to the inn. There is no real dialog there.

You can search Shaemoor for villagers, talk to them, and tell them to gather at the inn; this used to award karma but now has no practical purpose. Centaurs spawn infinitely and are by far the easiest opponents you will face for some time, so the tutorial can be a good place to learn your weapon skills and practice the controls. However, they no longer drop any loot, and give almost no experience per kill.

At the inn talk to Sergeant Walters, then make your way east to the garrison. If the garrison gates are closed, stay in the area and defend them from the incoming centaurs until they open. Enter the garrison and fight off the centaurs who have overrun it. At the end of the invasion a Modniir High Sage appears. He is a more powerful enemy who can use elemental spells to hit everyone around him. When he is at about 50% health, he will become invulnerable and retreat. Follow him across the bridge, where he'll summon a Greater Earth Elemental, which will be the final boss of this mission.

The hands of the Earth Elemental are your targets. Both hands have their own health bar and both must be destroyed. Keep moving constantly while hitting either of them and you should be able to avoid most of its attacks. You can stand next to Logan to receive Regeneration and some other boons at any time during the fight. The elemental will summon smaller elementals to fight you, too. These can generally be ignored, as they do not drop loot or give much experience. Once the Greater Elemental is defeated, the cutscene triggers automatically and the mission ends.
