Mirthwood Fate's First Whispers Quest And Walkthrough

A mysterious figure requests to meet with players, a figure that is rather vague in what they may or may not provide to us. Only known in-game as The Stranger, this ominous figure will play a vital role in the main questline as players delve deeper into this brilliant medieval world.

However, we won't know just how important they will be, but we get a slight glimpse into it courtesy of Fate's First Whispers, one of the game's first few quests. So, how important The Stranger will be is what we may learn about as this guide provides players with the objectives and the complete walkthrough for this quest in Mirthwood.

Mirthwood Fate's First Whispers Quest Objectives List

Once they've successfully escaped the Continent and arrived on the shores of the Free Lands, they'll need to complete a side quest of bringing a horse to someone known as The Stranger. Here, they'll have their first interaction with this ominous character and meet again in the game's first quest, Fate's First Whispers.

They'll also receive another quest, which we advise completing first to make things easier on players when locating The Hazy Hag in Brightoak. Nevertheless, let's get this show on the road as we've provided the singular objective to compete for the Fate's First Whispers quest in Mirthwood:

• Meet the Stranger at The Hazy Hag

How To Complete Fate's First Whispers Quest In Mirthwood?

Like with The Road to Brightoak quest, Fate's First Whispers is another early-game quest players will unlock once they finish the Prologue quest to reach the Free Lands. More specifically, they'll need to have acquired the deed to the property and have rested either by taking a nap or sleeping in the sleeping bag provided for this quest, which will likely be triggered.

We recommend waiting until they've completed The Road to Brightoak quest to begin this quest as it makes it easier to locate the location in the objective, The Hazy Hag, which can be found southeast of the Bog & Briar Inn. They'll discover a run-down tavern with a few livestock roaming on its premises; once they've entered the tavern, they'll find a peculiar figure in the adjacent room to the left side, where they can interact with the Stranger to begin the dialogue.

The Stranger will be extremely vague with their dialogue, revealing that they have pressing things to discuss with their player; however, the timing and location are not ideal. As such, they'll send someone to the player with further information, but not before encouraging them to begin "forging a sustainable life" in the Free Lands, which completes this specific quest, and they'll unlock the following quest, "The Shadow of Expectation."
