[edit] Walkthrough

Enter the Domain of Fear and talk to Captain Yithlis. Proceed directly south from where you started and defeat the various demons along the way. Eventually, your party will come to the swamp, proceed carefully here. There are multiple pop-up enemy groups.

The final group is situated on a hill and composed of several groups. There will be The Mouth of Torment surrounded by three Portal Wraiths. Additionally, the Portal Wraiths will be surrounded by a group of demons consisting of a Word of Madness, two Arms of Insanity, two Blades of Corruption and a Herald of Nightmares. To the north of this group will be a very large pop-up group consisting of a Torment Claw, a pair of Terrorweb Dryders, a pair of Grasp of Insanity and several more demons of various types. To the west of the central group is Scythe of Chaos and a Grasp of Insanity.

Proceed with caution, keep your party back and pull the groups toward you. There is a good chance a member of your party will activate one of the other nearby groups - be especially careful with minions. Take out the groups one by one and then assault the Portal Wraiths, they will not put up much of a fight.

Once completed, return to Commander Thurnis in the Gate of Torment for your reward.

[edit] Dialogue

[edit] Initial dialogue

Forgotten Keeper

"I have a message for you from Captain Yihtlis [sic]. He requests that you meet him in the Domain of Fear to help him with something important. Something invisible to the eye. He would tell me no more."

Accept: "I will go to meet him."

Decline: "Crazy oddballs. They're on their own this time."

When asked about quest: "Meet Captain Yithlis in the Domain of Fear. He says it's important."

[edit] Intermediate dialogue

Captain Yithlis

"Containing Abaddon has cost us countless lives, but so long as one of my people remains, we will fulfill our sacred duty."

Accept: "The Last Patrol"

Captain Yithlis

"I am glad you could make it, <Party Leader's name>. We have located the place where Abaddon's servants intend to raise this demon. We are ready to begin the assault. It would be an honor to fight by your side in the defense of our people."

Captain Yithlis "You all know what's at stake. If the Unseen is unleashed, Abaddon will gain a powerful ally, powerful enough to shatter his chains! That is not going to happen! Now while we are able to do something about it! May the god have mercy on their souls!"

After defeating the Portal Wraiths:

Captain Yithlis "Well done... friends... We did it. We have saved... we have... my friends... *cough*"

Igraine: "Captain! He's hurt... Captain?"

'Captain Yithlis: "There's no time to talk now, companions. Listen to me. You must return to Commander Thurnis... tell him... tell him we... won. Garfaz... get them home safely. It was an honor to fight... with you."

Garfaz Steelfur: "Return to Thurnis, <Party Leader's name>. We still have work to do."

The Lost: "Yes. Yithlis deserves a burial."

[edit] Reward dialogue

Commander Thurnis

"The threat was real? And you say Yithlis has fallen? I need some time to...think about what you have said."

[edit] Trivia

ArenaNet made a typo in the initial dialogue for Captain Yithlis, into Captain Yihtlis, switching the "h" and the "t" around.

The title may be a reference to Band of Brothers episode 8: The Last Patrol.

[edit] Notes

The Oddbodies do not have to survive to complete this quest.
This quest combines well with any of Holding the Line, A History of Violence, and Bad Fortune, since it provides extra allies to help your party fight. It's well worth leaving off completing The Last Patrol to help make these quests easier.
