Side Quest 1: Ratman Infestation

This is an optional side quest but it’s a good way to pick up some experience before trying the next core quest. You can always do it later if you choose.

How To Start The Quest

Erikson, the grumpy farm worker who was negative about going into the mines from the first quest, needs your help. You can find him on his farm on the south east end of town during the day time. If its night time, stay at the inn till 8 or 9 am. After speaking with him, you can agree to help him and he will give you his barn cellar key.

Going to the Cellar

Next head up to the barn right above the farm area. In the back left corner of the barn there is a small stair case down to the cellar. You wont be able to see it without transparency on but it is there and you can walk to it and head down the stairs.

In the Cellar

In this area, you wont be able to see what’s behind the cellar door before opening it; but its nothing too scary just a few ratmen. You will need to slay all of the ratmen in both parts of the cellar. Be sure to check all the crates and barrels in the area for supplies.

Returning to Erikson

After returning to him, simply talk to him and tell him you have completed the task. He will give you a reward of 3 silver coins and you will also gain a small amount of experience from the quest.
