Despite a small supply of arms and armour, Stanric of the Eglain is attempting to organize at least a meagre defence against the wild and dangerous beasts and other enemies which stalk the ruins the Eglain call their homes.
'Death, pestilence, and terror stalk us, ${PLAYER}. Two have been dealt with, thanks to your effort, the third still soars above us with ever watchful eyes.
'It is the eyes that I want. I speak of the gore-crows, the black birds with sharp beaks and piercing eyes. They are spies along the road east and west from this place, and they are ever vigilant.
'Take their eyes and they cannot see and what they cannot see they cannot spread to their masters, the Orc and half-breed. Seek the gore-crows along the Great East Road and bring me their eyes to prove that the creatures will no longer speak of us to their fell masters.'
Gore-crows can be found all along the Great East Road, which lies south of Ost Guruth.
Stanric has asked you to search along the Great East Road for gore-crows and collect their eyes as evidence that they can no longer spy upon the people of Ost Guruth.
