Overview
Greigur d'Deneith, the head of House Deneith in Stormreach, told you that they have a plan to take out the Blood Tide once and for all.

- This is the fourth and final quest in the Sentinels of Stormreach story arc.
Spoiler Warning: Information below this point can be considered spoiler material!
Objectives
- Speak with Greigur d'Deneith
- Confront Captain Tew at the top of the stairs
- Report back to Greigur d'Deneith
- Find Tobras Jorn, then open the secret door to the steam tunnels
- Flank the pirates on the second floor landing
- Slay all pirates on the second floor landing - 7 total
- Deactivate the foyer's magical shields
- Destroy the Crimson Moon
- Slay Captain Tew
- Slay the ogre mage Ahraatz-Ri
- (Optional) Slay Dheren Kiettuc (15% of base XP)
- (Optional) Slay the Manager (15% of base XP)
- (Optional) Slay Captain Grim (15% of base XP)
- (Optional) Slay Rowan Watzun (15% of base XP)
- (Optional) Activate the north barracks security door (15% of base XP)
- (Optional) Activate the south barracks security door (15% of base XP)
What to Expect
- Traps (fixed)
Known Traps
- Fire & blades in the northern hallway, past the first shrine; control box can be on either wall, either in the center (above the bench) or just before the second set of fire jets. The flames can be timed, and the blades can be avoided by sticking to the sides.
- Cold & blades in the hallway to the south; control box is on the east (left) wall just before the second set of cold jets. Again, the trap can be timed (though sticking to the sides is a bad idea here). NB - on elite, this trap box is sometimes on the west (right) wall just *after* the first set of jets. Checking here first means you only have to dodge the first set of cold jets, not any of the blades.
- Sonic and rotating spikes around the corner from the twisting ramp; control box is on the north (left) wall before the second set of sonic jets. On Normal & Hard, only the second set of sonic traps is active, not the first set or the spikes.
Tips and Misc
- In the sewers, puffs of air jet from the pipes, which can send you flying; it's actually necessary at times to use them to advance.
- You must destroy the Crimson Moon before entering the upper Tower. Don't stand too close to the device when the lever is pulled...
- No bonus for killing monsters on Normal; on Hard, you must clear out at least one of the Barracks for the Aggression bonus.
- The Barracks are north or south of the second set of shrines; the controls are in the rooms on the end. You can't activate them (and therefore, can't complete the optional) if the pirates in the relevant barracks become aware of your presence. You should be able to skip these rooms and still get the Ransack bonus by breaking the crates in the two eastern rooms during the final fight.
- Dheren Kiettuc may appear in the room at the end of the north branch, at the fork west of the staircase.
- Captain Grim may appear in the room with the south barracks control lever.
