← All areas in this guide

The Brecilian Forest is home to a clan of Dalish Elves afflicted by a werewolf curse that threatens their survival. The Warden ventures into the woods to find the source of the curse, navigating through aggressive wildlife, ancient undead, and sylvans to locate the Lady of the Forest. The quest ultimately requires choosing whether to broker peace, side with the werewolves, or wipe them out to secure an alliance for the Blight.

Shops and people

  • Mad Hermit: Trades the Grand Oak's acorn, a book of elven tales, and miscellaneous items in exchange for trinkets like scarves or statues

Tips

  • Bring mages with fire-based spells to easily dispatch Sylvans and Wild Sylvans, as they are exceptionally vulnerable to burning.
  • You must either help the Grand Oak retrieve its stolen acorn from the Mad Hermit or slay the tree to obtain a wooden token needed to bypass the impassable barrier of mist in the East Brecilian Forest.
  • Inspecting the small, glowing spirit-like wisps near gravestones immediately triggers difficult encounters with Revenants and their skeletal minions, so buff your party before interacting with them.
