Meet with Anise in Divinity's Reach before heading to Moon Camp. Anise is found on the same level as the palace itself, but behind the throne room. Taking a portal to the upper level is the simplest path there if a path around can't be found. Get your bearings in Janthir. Speak with your allies and Frode to make all rooms accessible, then examine 5 objects. The "Map of Janthir" is found in the upper west room, the room where Frode is, to the right of the stairs. In the upper east room is a "Kryptis Axe" to the left of the stairs. The first object in the lower west room is a "Mursaat Relic" to the left of the door, in a glass showcase. The second object in the lower west room is the "Janthir Historical Records", this time on the bookshelf on the right side of the door. In the lower east room is a "Valravn Talon" in a glass showcase in the middle of the room. Heading north then east from the camp is 5 spots to check: an Overlook to the river in the western end of the circle, and Old-Growth Pine a bit to the northeast of the Overlook that reveals an ambush of 3 Timber Wolves and 1 Veteran Timber Wolf, a Forest Stream in the northern end, an Unfamiliar Flowering Shrub close to the eastern end, and a high-up Cliff Face to the southwest spawn 3 Valravn and 1 Veteran Valravn that attack. Track down the source of the distress call. Following the distress call that comes leads to yet another ambush, this time by 3 Invasive Ibogas and 1 Veteran Iboga, as well as a trail of Claw Marks, Footprints, and Blood, leading east. Find the Astral Ward scouting party under attack by an Aggressive Warclaw. Upon reducing it to 50% health, a friendly but unknown Kodan will approach to help reduce its health further to be able to capture it with the special action skill Soothe the Beast. When afterwards following this kodan, Barbed Vale, to a settlement with the subdued warclaw in tow, it will break free 4 times, each time requiring its health to be brought under 50% and subdued with the salve again. Give the warclaw some food from Barbed Vale (and optionally pet it) before following another kodan, Stoic Alder, into the largest building, the Bonfire Lodge, to meet the ruling council of the area.
When meeting with the ruling council on subsequent playthroughs, you only need to speak with Poised Arrow to advance the story. de:Unbekanntes Territorium es:Territorio desconocido fr:Territoire inconnu
