Requirements

This quest is available if you have completed the quest Camp of the Convictors.

Starting the Quest

Talk to Estinien in the Coerthas Western Highlands to begin the quest.

Obtain Yak Hides

Go north to where the orange arrow is pointing in the minimap. The locations of Wooly Yaks are marked in the minimap. Kill Wooly Yaks until you have obtained two yak hides.

Deliver the Yak Hides

Go south up the slope, then go northwest. Estinien is standing on a hill. Go to the northwest side of the hill to find a slope up to the top. Talk to Estinien to hand over the Yak Hides and complete the quest. There will be a cutscene. This one is important, so it is recommended to watch it either now or via the Unending Journey in an inn room.
