Gar has been taken captive by the Goblins, and Fafnyr was wounded in the fighting. The Nord warrior seeks revenge against the hated Goblins and their spider allies.


Quick WalkthroughEdit

  1. Destroy spider cocoon on the beach to find Bjorick.
  2. Destroy a spider cocoon in a beachside cave to find Gar.
  3. Destroy three patches of spider eggs inside the cave.
  4. Kill a Shadowsilk Warlord and his Spider Queen.

Detailed WalkthroughEdit

After completing Protecting the Hall, continue your conversation with Fafnyr to start this quest:

"The spiders encase their prey in cocoons. If Bjorick and Gar were taken, you'll probably find them trapped in one of those silken prisons."
Where should I look for them?
"You'll find spider cocoons along the beach east of the manor house. Look there.
Show no mercy to these craven Goblins and their spider pets."
As you say.

Search along the beach for medium-sized white balls, taller than spiders and shorter than a human or elf. Interact with them to destroy them; you'll find Bjorick inside of one of them, and he'll begin speaking when released: "The Goblins have captured Gar. They took him into a cave near the beach." Enter the cave. You'll immediately see another cocoon; interact with it to free Gar. He'll run deeper into the cave, calling back to you: "We've got to kill the Goblin Warlord and the spider queen while we have the chance. Follow me." Follow him through a doorway, and speak to him:

"We're in the heart of the cave, friend. Now is the time to strike.
What do you say? Think we're mighty enough to take on the Goblin Warlord and his spider queen?"
How can we defeat the Goblins and spiders?
"Crush the eggs. Crush them! That will draw out the ugly spider queen and her Goblin ally.
Sovngarde awaits. We'll kill these beasts and send the Goblin horde to the pits. Ysgramor!"
I'll crush the eggs, Gar.

There are several piles of goblin eggs scattered around the cave. As you rush to crush them (by interacting with them), Gar promises, "I'll watch your back while you crush spider eggs." Crushing a pile of eggs will draw out enemy spiders. Crushing three piles will draw out the Shadowsilk Warlord and the Spider Queen. Kill them all.

Gar will bid you farewell: "We've won the day! I'll meet you at the hall." Head back to the hall and speak to Hrogar to complete the quest:

"The attacks are faltering. You've driven the Goblins back."
Gar and I defeated the Goblin Warlord and the spider queen.
"Shor's bones, traveler! Without your help, we'd be attending my son's funeral instead of celebrating a victory over the Goblins."

Notes
* Any text displayed in angle brackets (e.g., <Alias=LocationHold>) is dynamically set by the game and will be filled in with the appropriate word(s) when seen in game.
  • Not all Journal Entries may appear in your journal; which entries appear and which entries do not depends on the manner in which the quest is done.
  • Stages are not always in order of progress. This is usually the case with quests that have multiple possible outcomes or quests where certain tasks may be done in any order. Some stages may therefore repeat objectives seen in other stages.
