Gronnsbane: The Blessing of Beasts |
Gronnsbane now pulses with energies of fire and frost. All that remains to restore the full power of the weapon is to receive the Blessing of the Beast. Argoram believed this could be accomplished by bloodying the weapon against one of the ancient black rylaks of Stonefury Cliffs. His journal reads:
"High in the Stonefury Cliffs, I have seen an altar where the ogres have left offerings to these ancient beasts. Perhaps I could use it to lure one of them." Quest Objectives Defeat the ancient black rylak and douse Gronnsbane in its blood. Once empowered, return the weapon to Bodrick Grey for your reward. |
Up in the mountains above Stonefury, you can find this altar. It's on the very edge of the area marked on your map by the quest. There is blood on it, and bones surrounding it.
|
Upon examining the altar, you will find that you need food to give to the rylak, though the text doesn't tell you exactly what you need. If you remember, I told you to pick up 1 clefthoof meat. That's what you need. If you brought your own, you can skip the next step. Otherwise, you will need to go farm it.
This appears to be the altar the ogres use to place offerings for the ancient rylaks. The bones of previous meals lay scattered about. If you can find a proper offering, perhaps you could lure one of the rylaks down. The bones may provide some clue as to what they would eat... |
You can find clefthoofs all over Frostfire...I found that to farm it was closest to travel south to Icewind Drifts and find some clefthoof there. Not every one you kill will drop one, and you only need one. It is a crafting reagent, so ending up with too many isn't necessarily a bad thing. Once you have found the meat, return to the altar at Stonefury.
|
Having the meat will not change the text any, but will give you a new option:
Place offering of raw clefthoof meat. |
Placing the clefthoof will summon the black rylak. He will approach from up above.
|
Kill him...You may need another person. If another person has summoned him when you arrive, you will be able to tag him and help kill it, while still getting credit for the quest.
|
Once he's dead, use the blade to empower it. This will complete the quest, and you can return to your garrison.

Gronnsbane: The Blessing of Beasts |
Have you returned with the Thunderlords' relic?
|
Who would've thought that such a normal looking spear would be able to take down a full-sized Gronn?
I'm sure Dr. Jones will appreciate this in his collection. |
