[edit] Walkthrough

Talk to Nerashi just outside the Command Post in Arkjok Ward. Follow her directions to the garrison where Koss is being held. You need to eliminate 3 groups of Kournans outside of the garrison, the doors will then open. Once inside you need to kill the group with Commander Kubeh. Talk to Koss then and head back to Lonai to get the reward.

[edit] Initial dialogue

Lonai

"I have good news and bad news. The good news is that Nerashi found Koss! Unfortunately...he's been taken prisoner by the Kournans. We need to get him back. He had made a deal with a friendly corsair captain, Margrid the Sly, and we need her ship to get our wounded back to Istan. That means we need Koss. Go meet Nerashi in Arkjok Ward and devise a plan for breaking Koss out."
Accept: "Anything for Koss."
Decline: "I've been enjoying the quiet. I'm sure Koss will be fine for a while longer."
When asked about quest: "Nerashi is in Arkjok Ward. You should hurry. We really need to get Koss back."

[edit] Intermediate dialogue

Nerashi

"Koss and several others are being held in the garrison to the east. Their captor is an arrogant Kournan commander named Kubeh. I am sure if you take out Kubeh's signal scout patrols you'll be able to lure him from his lair to deal with him face-to-face. Follow my directions and you should be able to take them out without alerting the others."

Koss

"Took you long enough. I was getting tired of that Kubeh fellow...about near chewed through my shackles so I could shut him up myself! Things definitely went south at Gandara, didn't they?"
"So, you've found a place to hole up while I was the guest of the Kournans? Good, good. We're going to see what supplies we can find in this garrison and then pay my corsair friend a visit. I'll meet you back at the command post."

[edit] Reward dialogue

Lonai

"Nice work rescuing Koss and the other Sunspears. Koss checked with Margrid and she'll have her boat ready for us, but while I was there I heard news of more Sunspear evacuees. We have to rescue them! Talk to me when you're ready to proceed."

[edit] Notes

  • In Arkjok Ward, this quest prevents the Acolyte of Grenth and Captain Chichor from spawning.
  • You can capture Barrage early from Commander Kubeh while this quest is active
  • It is not actually necessary to talk to Nerashi, you can go straight to Koss (and from a closer town, as well), and free him.
  • Koss is always level 2 and has no skills on this quest.
  • Koss will start dancing once you free him
  • Exiting the east gate after talking to Koss leads to another small group of Kournans and the entrance to Pogahn Passage outpost. This can be quite useful if you are going to follow Margrid the Sly in the storyline.

[edit] Trivia

  • The name of this quest is a reference to the movie of the same name, where the main characters of the movie are held in a PoW camp and plan to escape throughout the movie.
