A Broken Chord - main quest | Stone Sea Tyranny Guide
Last update: 27 December 2016
This is one of the two quests that you do for Voices of Nerat. They are available after finishing the first main quest. You must go to Blade Grave region and visit Trapper's Junction (M21). When you look at that map you should remember that enemy forces, that are marked on the map, are not your enemy - they are Chorus forces.
Go to the south part of the location and talk with Jagged Remedy. The conversation always goes successfully (unless you want to break the alliance and kill him, gaining Wrath points with this faction). Your mission is to find Mattias and try to recruit him to Chorus' army. You will find him in the center of the map.
There are two guards watching the entrance to the enemy camp: if you attack them you will have to deal with everyone in the camp. Choose the option that allows you to discuss the terms of surrender and Mattias will arrive. After a short dialog go with him to the tent where you are informed that the term of surrender is to release the prisoners that are held captive by Chorus. Return to Jagged Remedy and persuade him to free one of the captives (it can be one of The Disfavored, to free others you need to have your Wits or Quickness at level 50).
When you return to Mattias, Irentis may be outraged and wants to fight with you. Do not be afraid and, if you wish, accept it - you will be backed up by Mattias' companions. After the fight you can search Irentis' corpse and find notes that will add a new optional location to the world map called Infested Oldwalls.
Regardless of your choices this quest is linear - Mattias is always alive after the fight and you have to go with him to Jagged Remedy and then to Sentinel Stand.
In Sentinel Stand go north to meet Mattias and together you will fight with a group of the Banes. After a short conversation with Janos you will go to another location, Rust Canyons (M20). This marks the end of this quest and a new one for both Chorus and The Disfavored, called That Which Remains, will begin (walkthrough can be found in another chapter of this guide).
