Missing Sentries

Part 1: Notable Absences at Heritage Hill

First Fires

Crucible Keep

While you’re exploring the interior of the grand Crucible Keep, visit the large training area and speak with Wyla (2). Though abrupt, she informs you of some lost novitiates if you ask about Heritage Hill. She already lost one of her finest commanders during recent skirmishes with the flesh-eating undead. Offer to help her find the location of her missing men.

New Task: Missing Sentries

Objective: Enter Heritage Hill

Part 2: Crypt of the Commander

Heritage Hill

During your main quest, you gain entry to Heritage Hill (3) and must fight the shambling undead as you search this fetid, mist-filled place. The task updates when you gain entry.

Task Updated

Objective: Find the missing guards

The situation calls for delicate negotiations, as Leyra doesn’t seem to realize she’s turned into a hated spectral fiend, and her men are entranced and will follow her orders to the death.

• [Resolve 13] Continue the conversation, offering the Clever answer and asking her how long she’s been stuck here, waiting for orders. She realizes she’s dead and fades from existence, freeing the enthralled men without bloodshed.
• Telling her she’s a ghost and luring Crucible Knights to their deaths results in violent refusal to believe you, and she starts to attack.
• [Attack] Vow to slay this Spectre. A fight commences.

Locating the missing novitiates is a little trickier, as they are hidden away inside a mausoleum (4) in the northeastern corner of Heritage Hill. Enter this tomb, and you’ll find four Enthralled Justiciars under the spell of a powerful Phantom named Leyra.

Speak to a Justiciar after the battle. And send him to escape Heritage Hill if you have cleared the way.

Task Updated

Objective: Speak to Wyla

Part 3: Conclusion: Cash of the Commander

Once the altercation with Leyra has concluded, you may wish to return to Wyla (2) and inform her of your success. You’re given a reward dependent on the number of surviving novitiates (Enthralled Justiciars).
