 * Follow the road from Yak's Bend to Borlis Pass. Defeat all Stone Summit raiders along the road.
 * Return to Captain Osric for your reward.

 * 500 Experience

 * Armor +5 (vs. elemental damage)
 * Halves skill recharge of spells (Chance: 10%)

Walkthrough
This quest is definitely one of the the harder quests in Yaks Bend due to the huge mass of enemies at the end, but don't worry. If you pull the enemies out, 3 to 5 at a time, you can defeat them with relative ease. (Henchmen tend to engage enemies on sight, so if you are hiring help for this mission you might want to pull the creatures yourself and keep your henchmen flagged back until it is safe to engage.) Otherwise it's simple to finish the quest.

Initial dialogue

 * Captain Osric
 * "The road is swarming with Dwarves!"
 * "Deldrimor's children were once friends of Ascalon, but there seems to be some new group, the Stone Summit, who have no interest in peace with men. We must put these Dwarves back on their heels if we are to escort so many children and civilians to the pass."


 * "If you can wipe out the Stone Summit raiders who are marauding along the road, we can finally begin our journey through these mountains in earnest."

Reward dialogue

 * Captain Osric
 * "I can see Prince Rurik spoke the truth when he praised you so highly. I will need to stay here to provide safe harbor to Ascalonians who wish to follow the Prince's exodus, but we will begin escorting people to Borlis Pass immediately."
