On Ermolai's trail

Speak to the Thoughtful Family in Gravestein.

Ermolai Sotnikov! A born leader - decisive, bold... We'll never find another man like him. He wanted to explore the new land in Siveria, so he got some people together and headed east.

We haven't heard any news from the expedition for a long time, and now you've found this helm... The thing is, Ermolai isn't in the habit of leaving his armor lying around! That's why I have a job for you - I want you to follow his trail and find out what happened to him.

A good place to start would be to go see the Gibberlings in Gravestein. Ermolai had to have passed through there. Talk to the elders, maybe they've heard something!

Our town is new and we are a peaceful people, but we're always able to stand up to our enemies!

So, you're looking for Ermolai? Since Vlad has entrusted you with such a serious matter, we'll tell you everything we know. Ermolai and his people did indeed stop here. He said that he was going to travel up the river to the very edge of the allod, but we don't know if he made it or not. However, we do have a lead you can follow!
