Slay the Dragon.
  • 1 of 6: To get this quest, talk to the bartender in the Sturmford City tavern until he starts talking about dragons.
  • 2 of 6: There's one in a cave in Lindisfarne.
  • 3 of 6: But do what the barkeep suggested and find Snorri the Fist in Thjorgard and talk to him first.
  • 4 of 6: He's in the Thjorgard City tavern and gives you the "Survive the Training Hall" quest.
  • 5 of 6: Once you finish it, he'll say to talk to Abbott Leffery Caid in the Lindisfarne Monastery, so go do that and finish his "Retrieve the missing relic" quest.
  • 6 of 6: Your quest note will now say that you can meet the Dragon King in his cave (which you can, but then you always could). See the Dragon's Lair section for further information.
