The Conspirators | Act II - side quests Dragon's Dogma Guide
Last update: 11 May 2016
In short: Fedel of the castle asks you to meet him after dark because he has a mission for you (retrieving a stolen letter). The quest becomes active after the meeting with the Duke, but before completing all quests from Trial and Tribulations.
Difficulty level: Medium/hard. There is journey to a far away land and a way through one of the most complicated locations!
Wait at the inn until nightfall and sneak into the meeting place (castle gardens). Wait for the man - he'll walk out of the castle in a while.
Then, go to the marked location.
You'll find a wrecked transport. It turns out that the letter the NPC needs and parcels have been taken by Gargoyles.
Go to the nearby Soulflayer Canyon cave (take the road as it leads you, and then jump down to a ledge below).
Inside, find the place with the parcels and the letter. The road is complicated, as it requires sliding down the slopes. First, though, go down the ladder and follow the only path available. Be very cautious, because Harpies have a tendency to drowse the characters and push them down the precipice. On your way you should pass by a bridge with Spiders, a fragment with Saurians and Panthoms, and a cave with Goblins.
Eventually, you'll stumble upon a Gargoyle. Kill it. Afterwards, climb up the ladders.
In the cave with Goblins, turn right at the fork (north).
You'll reach a stone bridge guarded by a Cyclops. Kill it. With any luck, you'll be able to throw him down. In case of trouble, retreat to the cave.
A while later, after defeating Harpies, there is a place where you have to slide down. It's a particularly difficult fragment - you can easily take the wrong way. The first, small slope you can take as you like. With the second, keep to the left to land on the left ledge (otherwise you'll slide all the way down and would have to climb up the ladder again).
The third slope you can also take as you like. With the fourth - keep to the right. This way you'll reach the spot with the letter.
Take the letter and head back to Gran Soren. Go to the castle.
Before the entrance you'll be stopped by Ser Gabrian who'll ask you to give him the letter, claiming that Fedel has his own agenda. You can choose who to give the letter to.
