Fort Strand is a medium fort east of Anvil containing marauders (quest-related). [edit] It contains two zones: Fort Strand and Fort Strand Great Dome.

Notes

• If you enter this dungeon without having started the associated quest, your journal will recognize Rockshatter, the weapon carried by Bjalfi the Contemptible, and add the quest. In unpatched versions of the game, a bug may allow you to acquire two copies of Rockshatter; it is recommended that you do not pick up any second copies until you have finished the quest (see When the Vow Breaks for details).
