Epic - Book I: Stirrings in the Dark

Barliman wants you to talk to Strider, Halros' Captain.

STEPS:

1) Talk to Strider. Barliman says:

"From the common room turn left down the hall—pay no mind to the hobbits in the kitchen—and keep on until you can only go right. Follow straight down that hall until you're at the foot of the stairs. Strider is in the room to the right of the stairs."


Here are some Wren-friendly directions: Stand just at the door, and face south. Walk south until you see some bags of flour (?) to your right. There will be a hallway to the east, follow that to a room with a fireplace, and a hallway to the south. Go down that hallway, and then when you're at the foot of the stairs, turn right (facing north), and open the door to find Strider's room.

2) After you speak with him and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, and you will now be able to take the next quest, Chapter I: Unraveling the Thread.
