Storming the city

Storming the City

As you approached Derth you saw a huge dark cloud over the small town.

This quest is triggered upon the character reaching level 14 and then re-entering the world map.

Saving Derth

The town of Derth will show dark storm clouds over the tile on the world map. Upon entering the town, you will receive a notice about hearing screaming. The town is infested with a number Air Elementals. The elementals can use long-range lightning attacks, so you'll want high speed, lightning resistance, or high damage.

Upon the death of the last elemental, a townsman will thank you for saving the town and request assistance in removing the remainder of the storm clouds. You have two options: Find the town of Angolwen (from the quest An apprentice task or by being an Archmage) and request assistance, or request assistance from Zigur (only if the quest The Curse of Magic is completed).

Assault on Tempest Peak

In either case, the culprit is revealed as Uriks, The High Tempest, whom you must go and defeat. His zone is appropriately called Tempest Peak.
