Crusader to Paladin
  • 1 of 3: A blue-robed monk named Grehgknak the Right in the central courtyard of the Lindisfarne Monastery gives you the tasks for this promotion quest if you've finished the crusader promo quest.
  • 2 of 3: When you finish those two quests, return to Grehgknak for promotion.
  • 3 of 3: Note that he may not allow you to report success and get promoted if Jarl Sven isn't in his castle in Thjorgard City. If that's the case, then come back and try Grehgknak again after you finish the main line quests in which Sven is off somewhere else.
