[edit] Walkthrough

Find Orozar Highstone in Grenth's Footprint, and lead him to Sorrow's Furnace. You'll probably face a couple of Stone Summit bosses along the way, but nothing difficult -- just kill the Stone Summit Gnashers before they overwhelm your party with Bone Fiends.

Once inside Sorrow's Furnace, speak to Highstone again, and he'll tell you he's bribed the guards and wants you to find his brother. Follow him through the cavern. You'll fight one easy mob, and then discover that -- uh-oh -- Highstone has been betrayed.

He'll remain in one spot, and then you'll face four waves of Stone Summit, including a lot of Summit Deep Knights, Summit Taskmasters, Summit Dark Binders, Summit Surveyors, Summit Wardens, a couple of Priest of Sorrows, and three random bosses (one in the second wave; two in the fourth -- see the entry "Sorrow's Furnace" for a guide to the bosses). There's a brief pause between each wave to pick up loot (there will be a lot of it) and to regenerate.

Tactically, it's probably easiest to stay with Highstone rather than split your party trying to attack each mob as it approaches (they come from different directions). Flag your heroes/henchmen to the one spot. You lose and get teleported back to the outpost if Highstone dies, but the foes won't start attacking Highstone until all of your party are dead.

A resurrection shrine is very close by, so even if the party wipes, you should still be able to complete this quest.

Upon completion, speak to Highstone to be awarded 4000 experience points (which will take care of any Death Penalty). Gather all drops before speaking to him again for Noble Intentions Plan B.

[edit] Initial dialogue

Orozar Highstone

"My younger brother, fool that he is, has gone and joined the Stone Summit. As ye can imagine, if my rivals learn of this, it could be disastrous for my family and my political career. That's where ye come in. I've bribed several of the guards to grant us safe passage. We're going to find my brother and bring him back before anyone finds out. can I count on yer silence?"
Accept: "I'd hate to see your image tarnished. You can count on me."
Decline: "I have a big mouth. You'd better find someone else."
When asked about quest: "I have bribed several of the Summit's guards, but we must hurry and find my brother. My money buys us only so much time."

Orozar Highstone

"Well fought, my friend. I thought we were on our way to the Eternal Forge, but it seems the Great Dwarf has other plans for us this day."
