The section contains a walkthrough of the main quest Bones in the Fog in The Bard's Tale IV: Barrows Deep. This mission introduces a new type of enemies. There are some tricky elements of this quest, with regard to the enemies
Talk to Duke Kingston
Talk to Duke Kingston. He's behind the trow's village in the ruins underneath Skara Brae. Remember about the enemies, whom you didn't kill before.
Duke will ask you to sail to the Stennish Islands. Exit to Skara Brae using the ladder near the Old Adventurers' Guild.
Once you're there, go to the port. Talk to the woman and use the ladder to sail to the islands.
The Stennish Island
Go to the left side of the port. This mission introduces a new type of enemies - Undead. Their armor isn't high and it's easy to defeat them, but they also deal high damage. Don't kill them one by one, cause they will respawn after one turn. You have to severely reduce their health and then kill them all in one fell swoop in the last turn.
Get to the hand of the statue. It will lift you to the village.
Enter the Seals and Sirens. There, talk to the Jarl.
He will ask you to talk to Brakk. Go towards the blue arrow on the compass.
After finding the corpse, before playing the song "What River Takes", hide using the rogue's ability. Thanks to that, you will avoid being attacked from behind, which would otherwise happen after the conversation with the ghost. Once you're hidden, making the first move towards the enemy won't be a problem. You will gain an edge over the enemy.
After defeating them, you will obtain the key to the chamber. Go back - it's not far from you (see the map). There are no enemies there. At the end there are stairs, and at their bottom - Hessa the priestess. The conversation with her will end the quest.
