Walkthrough

Greenstone to Realaidain Estate
Knorr Gardens

Travel to Realaidain Estate, southeast of Greenstone and enter the mansion door at 58.7S, 58.8E. From the center room, take the north door and select the middle bookcase on the west wall, which is actually a secret door. Use it and speak with Mallenos inside to begin the quest.

You must gather six Dead Ward Stones from inside six separate defense portals which encircle the estate. Five of the six portals are guarded by groups of Falatacot. Using the portal will bring you inside a dark room which has a Ward Pedestal in the center - use the shrine to receive a Dead Ward Stone. The order in which you visit doesn't matter. Their locations are:

Defense Portal Primus: 57.7S, 58.8E
Defense Portal Secundus: 57.8S, 59.8E
Defense Portal Tertius: 59.9S, 59.9E
Defense Portal Quartus: 60.6S, 58.7E
Defense Portal Quintus: 60.5S, 57.8E
Defense Portal Sextus: 59.1S, 57.6E

You may do this either above ground or underground.

Above ground is usually faster since you can use a mount to ride between Defense Portals.
Underground involves traversing the Trace the Bounds Dungeon. It's slower since you need to kill the Thrall and Felsisters that are statiioned all the way. It may be desirable to use this path if you are doing Aldemon's Slaughterfest at the same time. In this case the killings will count for your quest and you will have near 50 to kill in the full circle around all defenses. Check the dungeon map below.

Once you've gathered all six dead ward stones, return to the secret room inside the estate. Hand each ward stone to the shrine one at a time to turn them into an Empowered Ward Stone. If you're having a hard time handing the empowered ward stone to the pedestal, aim for just below the words "Ward Pedestal."

Once you've empowered all six stones, return to the six portals and give them back to the pedestals, one per portal. Which portal they originally came from doesn't matter. Upon handing the last stone, the quest will automatically complete and you'll earn your reward.

Lore & Dialog

Mallenos tells you, "Aaaah... vile interloper... leave me in peace ... Wait! You are not Falatacot! If you are not in league with those loathsome sorcerers, please, help us... go to the 6 ward towers around this estate. Remove the ward stones. Return to the shrine here to re-energize them, then return them to their towers. This will reactivate the estate defenses...."

Your place the ward stone on the shrine, and it begins to glow with a faint pulsing aura. You remove the stone, and it continues to glow.
