You can also utilize a dwarf NPC in Gianthold, who trades you 1 relic for 3 relics of different kind (1 elven for 3 giant or dragon and such).
 * Prey on the Hunter (Optional Chests from killing the two dragons can drop a Relic as well)

Pre-raid and the raid
Once you have the 27 required relics, you can talk to Crag in the Gianthold city zone. He will then give you access to the zone pre-raid quest Gianthold Tor, but you must first also talk to Cydonie of Argonessen before running the pre-raid. In order to run the zone raid, you must not only complete the pre-raid, but also complete the optional portions of the raid - killing the dragon and giant guardians accessible after quest completion. Doing this and talking to Cydonie of Argonessen again grants you access to the raid - The Reaver's Fate.
