Detailed Walkthrough[edit]

Speak to Maj al-Ragath to get the details of this quest.

"The Banished Cells! Beneath Auridon lies a boil of dark magic and family hate. Destroy the Kinlord and his dark fiend, the clannfear Shadowrend."
Is that all?
"Not enough, eh? Alright, invoke the Scroll of Glorious Battle before you face the Kinlord. He might just stand a chance then!"
I pledge to explore the Banished Cells, and return Undaunted.

Once you have accepted the quest, you can enter the Banished Cells I dungeon either by accessing the dungeon through the Dungeon Finder, or heading to Auridon and entering the dungeon there with a group. You have the choice of entering the normal dungeon or the veteran version, this choice will affect if you can achieve the optional step and your rewards.

When inside the dungeon, you will need to progress through the dungeon, slaying the following bosses, Shadowrend, and High Kinlord Rilis. With the last boss, if you are in the veteran dungeon, you have the option of completing the optional task of defeating Rilis with the Scroll of Glorious Battle active.

Once you have completed the task, you can return to Maj al-Ragath at any of the Undaunted Enclaves, and speak with her to complete the quest:

"Hah, I knew you'd come back alive. No poncy Elven High Kinlord fancydress mageling was going to stop the likes of you."
High Kinlord Rilis is dead.
"My mother would say something about how unimpressive you are, but damned if I'm not her. You've done us proud! You've returned Undaunted!"
Proud enough to reward me? / What has foiling the Kinlord's escape earned me?
Condition Dialogue

Veteran mode completed "Hah! Of course! We reward our own. Take your key. Enjoy your well-deserved cut. And remember to come see me again tomorrow!"
Veteran Hard Mode completed "For Undaunted who leave no stone unturned, no challenge unanswered, no foe unbutchered? Only the best is due! Take your cut and return tomorrow. I will find you another worthy challenge."

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
