Quest: Deal with the Dragons

Received from: Lazlo Buckman, after completing quest (West Harbor): Dragon Hunt

After you return to West Harbor talk to Lazlo, whom you'll meet by the entrance to the location. He will tell you about his deal with the dragons and will ask you to help fighting them. First one can be found by the town gate. You can resolve the problem two ways: one is make a deal with the dragon and get 5000 $ for killing Lazlo and his men, and the other is to kill the dragon.

Variant 1: A deal with the dragon

Once you killed Lazlo and his men talk to the dragon. It will give you 5000 $, but won't let you into the village. You can unlock the path by fighting it.

Variant 2: Fighting the dragon

During the fight another dragon will appear. Killing the two isn't that much of a problem with the support of Lazlo, Tarmas and two other fighters. After the fight you will receive a new feat: Dragon Slayer (+2 attack bonus and damage bonus vs dragons). Collect the remains and talk to Lazlo. Thankful for your help he will allow you to create a trade outpost in West Harbor.

Quest: Path of the master

Ask Aruna, what's new in the town. You will learn that the half-drow Quarrel seems depressed and needs someone to talk to. Approach him and start a conversation which will soon turn to Ammon Jerro. Using Lore you may tell Quarrel that the warlock most probably resided in Crossroads Keep . Half-drow will head there and you should follow. You will meet him in the keep, besides Khelgar. Talk to him to have him join your party.
