The Overdue Scout

A wayward brother who went scouting should have checked in quite some time ago.

Description
Stage 1

'Hail, friend. I am Gunvald, one of Ausma's scouts. I heard that you will be assisting us, for which I am very glad indeed. My brother, Laugi, went scouting near the Zarkul-sulûn ruins and was due to return some time back. If you could look for him, I would much appreciate it. I am sure he is fine, of course, but... well, it is not like him to be so overdue. I would go myself, but I must stay here to assist Ausma.'

Laugi should be somewhere near Zarkul-sulûn in southern Elderslade.

Gunvald has asked you to look for his missing brother.
