The Covenant is opening portals inside Fort Zeren

I've made my decision. I'm standing with Darj the Hunter and defending Fort Zeren.

Quick WalkthroughEdit

1. Talk to Darj the Hunter at Fort Zeren.
2. Close five reinforcement portals around the fort.
3. Find and defend Denskar and Littrek Earth-Turner.
4. Talk to Aera.
5. Enter Fort Zeren Manor.
6. Close the Master Portal.
7. Kill General Emax.
8. Talk to Darj to complete the quest.

Detailed WalkthroughEdit

As soon as you arrive at Fort Zeren, Darj needs your help. Covenant soldiers are opening portals into the fort, and he wants you between the Daggers and the refugees. Kill the daggers and close five of their portals. There will be a caster and a melee-range soldier at each portal. Kill them both and the portal will close.
Once you're done with the portals, Darj shows up.

Darj the Hunter: "The south gate... Denskar and Littrek are in over their heads."

Find Littrek and Denskar by the south gate. They're struggling to hold off a group of Covenant soldiers. Help them as more soldiers swarm in and attempt to fell the three of you. When you have killed the last soldier, you need to find Aera Earth-Turner and tell her how her men have fared. She tells you that Darj needs you once more. Upon further inquiry, she tells you of some "master portal" that's being opened in the Fort Zeren Manor: A Covenant general is on the way!

Rush over to the manor and find Darj. You need to help Darj kill General Emax and close the Master Portal. General Emax is a powerful mage, and he's responsible for leading the attack on Fort Zeren. Once he's slain, meet Darj outside the manor for your reward and to find out what's next.

NotesEdit

• Even after this quest is completed, Aera can still be found at Dhalmora.

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.
