Questing in the North Downs: Aiding the Residents

By: Martuk

There are many people in need of aid in the North Downs. Mincham's camp and Amon Raith lie on the outskirts of the Fields of Fornost and Gatson's Farm sis in the center of Kingsfell. Each area provides adventurers with ample opportunity to obtain work to earn funds and experience by battling the orcs and goblins incurring on the North Downs.
