Fennmarche: The Letters

When the required destination is available: Reach the surface near the site marked in your objective. The check allows up to 5 horizontal and vertical steps in total. No item must be recovered for this objective. If no suitable destination is available: Defeat 6 hostile creatures in Fennmarche territory. Outdoor kills use the defeated creature's position. Dungeon kills use the dungeon entrance. Passive creatures do not count. The actual destination comes from your current world and quest marker. Accepted stages keep their assigned destination across later rebuilds. The standing gate uses how many stages of this questline you have handed in. A cleared dungeon can let the offer sequence advance before its hand-in, so the gate can be lower than the usual stage threshold shown here.
