The quest takes place at a small instanced area. You will on top of a small platform with no way down. Your heroes will be at the foot of the platform. Any henchmen in your party will be removed.

Burol's monologue will start but you can go ahead and use the flag to direct your heroes to the first pillar marked "Area One". When they are near it, the progress bar on your screen will slowly turn blue. It is captured when it is completely blue. Eventually Burol will tell you to move your heroes to "Area One" and then to "Area Two" and "Area Three". When that part of the quest dialogue appears, three level 5 Snow Wolves will appear at the base of each of the latter two areas. Your heroes will make short work of them. Once all three areas are captured and the enemies dispatched, move them back to "Area One" to complete to quest. Claim your reward when you return to Boreal Station.

"Do ye see...ahem...Do YOU see the three areas around you? You need to control these areas. By issuing commands to your squad during this training sessions, you will capture each area under different circumstances."

Burol Ironfist [Hero Tutorial]

"You must destroy all enemies surrounding an area to being capturing it. Moving your squad outside the area will halt the capture process."

"Use target flags to move your Heroes. These flags let you select a position in the world for your Heroes. Ye...I mean, you...will find up to four flag buttons attached to your compass."

Burol Ironfist [Hero Tutorial]

"To place a flag, click on the flag button and then click on the compass or somewhere in the world. Placing a flag causes the Hero to regard that location as "home.""

"Keep in mind that while Heroes move to a new location they will not execute any skill commands until after they reach the flag unless that flag is canceled or overridden."
