Hour of Rage (Late)

Upon arrival at Flintrock Grassland, travel a short distance west to find barbarians. Speak with a barbarian named Gwart, who expresses discontent and offers a plan to resolve the situation. He is unhappy with Armag and his “crazy witches” for disrespecting the tribesmen and leading them into a suicidal battle with poor plunder prospects. Gwart also recognizes the Surtovas' potential benefit from barbarian casualties against the Swordlords.

If you are ready to proceed with Gwart's plan, inform him. You will be teleported to the southwestern end of the map. Head north to find Jamandi Aldori with hostile barbarians. Defeat these opponents and their “little dogs.”

Attend to Jamandi Aldori. Her condition indicates the dire state of her army. Inform her of your meeting with Gwart; she will encourage you to continue with the scheme to save Restov.

After Jamandi departs, loot a chest and a sack northeast of her location for minor treasures.

Make your way east until you find a pile of branches that can be looted (requires Perception 24).

Continue southeast to the southeastern corner of the map to find a pack of manticores, including Poisonous Primal Manticores and Venomanticores. These enemies attack quickly, have a high Attack Bonus, high Armor Class, and may attempt to attack sneakily (requires Perception 33 to spot them). Use spell buffs and consider spells like Web to hinder their advance.

After defeating the manticores, loot the remains of their victims.

Return to where you found Jamandi and head west to find a pack of Ferocious Wolves led by a Barbarian. Defeat them.

Continue west to find a hidden sack near some cliffs (requires Perception 27).

Head north to find a Cleric of Gorum and two Barbarian Archers. Defeat them.

Keep heading north to find an active battle between barbarians and Brevoy soldiers. Aid the remnants of Jamandi’s army.

Head west to find a small hill with a stump that hides minor treasures (requires Perception 29).

To the east, you will find a fourth group of barbarians standing over their victims, some of whom have been turned into bears. These enemies, especially the bears, are stronger than previous barbarian groups. Consider spell-buffing before engaging.

Head southeast from this encounter to find a larger skirmish against stronger barbarians, including more bear-barians. These barbarians are fighting some Restovic survivors, allowing you to flank them. Defeat them and loot a parcel near a tree to the northwest, which contains 2,430 GP and 82 units of Diamond Dust.

From the last skirmish, head east to find an enclosed clearing with corpses and a gnome named Dallirun Myrnas. Speak to the gnome and ask “What are you doing?” to learn about the desecration he is about to perform. You can talk him out of his task.
