Defending the Bridge
General QuestAggy is extremely concerned about some recent Orc activity. She spotted some trying to carry a couple of crates towards the bridge, but stopped them ahead of time. You get to find out what is in those crates.
STEPS:
1) Collect the crate contents. Aggy instructs you:
"Would you go to the western edge of the Nan Wathren, search for this crate and find out what's inside?"
Immediately after crossing the trestlebridge, take the right fork heading east and a bit north up the hill. Just before the fort, you will see another fork in the path. Again you will take this right and follow it to the east. Cross the large suspension bridge when you come to it. Bear north to the next suspension bridge, and cross that, heading east. After that bridge, head northish to the Nan Wathren Western Pass. From the gateway you can see the object you need, the Black Fire Chest. You'll be fighting a number of level 23-24 mobs on your quest for the chest (15s, 49.9w)! You will find the black powder within.
2) Bring the crate contents to Aggy Digweed.
3) After you speak with them and select "Finish Now", you get your coin reward, XP, and you will now be able to take the next quest, The Black-Fire.
