As you enter the Dalish Camp you are introduced to Zathrian. The first task he gives you is to slay Whitefang (a werewolf).
After resupplying go to the forrest.
Speak to the Grand Oak (West Brecilian Forest). He will send you with a mission to find his stolen acorn. Find a mad hermit living in the east part of the forest. You can play by his rules or simply defeat him to obtain the acorn.
Grand Oak
Bring the acorn back to the Oak in Western Forest.
There is a magic barrier in the south part of the East Brecilian Forest. You can pass through if you have the branch Grand Oak gave you.
Follow the Werewolves and enter the Ruins. You will soon realize that Werewolves have blocked the main door and you have to find alternative route.
Once you hear weird noises be careful. Send a scout in stealth mode and disarm all the traps (if you can of course).
Defeat the dragon and move ahead. On the right you will see dragon’s stash. Now that’s a nice collection of items.
Run down to Lower Ruins and follow the Ghost.
After defeating Arcane Horror enter the Werewolf Lair through the pool.
Werewolves
You will meet their Lady. She will ask you to convince Zathrian to speak to her.
Lady of the Forest
Before the battle you can decide whether you want to kill the Werewolves and Whitefang (Wynn won’t approve), or maybe you don’t agree with Zathrian (seems to be a better option).
Advice if you want to fight Zathrian:
- Stay close to him – then he won’t cast Blizzard. Paralyze, Petrify or Stun him. Don’t worry about killing his minions, as soon as Zathrian is down the fight is over.

Whats this…. theres nothing here
Work in progress
I really want to know how to get the werewolf ending to this quest! I’ve tried every dialog option at each encounter but i cant figure out how to help them instead of the elves.
Word of Warning – When trading with the Hermit, make sure you have space in your inventory, else you lose the item you trade for and gain nothing in return, which could bug the Acorn quest.
I’m stuck at the part where I aquire the acorn from the Hermit, he will no longer speak to me and I can’t kill him cos he keeps on teleporting away from me.
I guess you can’t do anything with him anymore, bring the acorn to the Oak.
kUB, if you dont already have the acorn you can try to loot the items from his stump and then he’ll attack you. If you already have the acorn then it’s not such a big deal, but I killed him anyway after I got the acorn
Im stuck at the part at the dragon, i cant kill him idk why
stuck at the part with the pool of water and the altar need to know sequence to get the door open
That’s the elven ritual quest.
I actually killed the tree instead of doing the hermit thing. Can i still do the rest of this part like the magic all that stuff, i didnt pick up any branch after i killed em soooo idk
after the quest i am stuck in room with witherfang cant talk to white wolf and both doors are locked! how do i get out?
How can someone beat this game in 30 hours!? Im at 32 hours and im only at the ruins in Brecilian Forest ><. How long did it take anybody else to beat the game? (im playin on PC, dunno if its any different than Xbox version, but the battles are stupid huge and really hard)
Question:
I passed up on the witherfang quest earlier in the game, didn’t finish looking for that acorn and now I’m trying to Gather The Army.
Only problem is that I’ve killed the Oak Tree and I CANNOT find any form of warewolf skin…. There are NO warewolfs left in the forest and thus I cannot have teh hermit cast his spell. I have no idea where I sold or got rid of the book either.
My save#2 is back way too far to ever consider “reloading”.”
What CAN I DO ?
can’t enter the pool that leads to the Lair of the Werewolves.
is it a bug? anyone knows whats the problem is?
i play on xbox360 is that make any sense….
How do u get threw the metal door?
Well. i have same problem as RickRoss71 i’ve done exactly the same thing as he discribed and i want to know how i get by this too lol please help!!!
I tried performing this quest in 3 different manners.
ONCE YOU TALK TO GUARDS OUTSIDE WITHERFANG HQ: (lol)
If you opt to kill all the werewolves and witherfang, then you get the backing of the Dalish and all their sick become healed.
(not recommended, (gear from werewolf lair), and semi difficult)
If you chose to wipe out all the dalish including Zathrian: its is REALLY easy! You get a descent amount of loot from the Dalish. However, You lose unfinished Dalish Quests, and Varathorn as a trading Partner. In return, You get a WEREWOLVE ARMY!!!!
(Semi-recommended, Easy, Dalish Camp gear (IMPORTANT- You can only get gear from Werewolf lair (including 4th or 5th Revenent) if you wipe out the Guards).
If you try to reason with Zathrian, realize you cannot, and have to kill him- all the Werewolves become human, and its one big happy fairytale ending. BLEH!
(Recommended, Semi-difficult (if you focus all four on Zathrian only), Zathrian’s Gear)
SAVE THIS QUEST FOR LAST, so you get to Chose whether you want The large Dalish Army (including former werewolves), or the WEREWOLF ARMY (which is baddass- period)!!
EDIT: Killing Zathrian does not make werewolves human again! I miswrote it. You need social skills level 4 to coax Zathrian.
LOL forget the edit… I thought throwing a curveball in there would make it interesting… But it should say SPOILER above the original comment ;( sry.
Well, I have the exactly same problem as rodney have/had.
Both the doors are locked and I can’t communicate with the wolf.
where is the came i cant find it
Anyone else notice the deer or whatever it was in the woods? What was that all about?
Where is the Dalish camp???????

Take the cup from inside the pool, fill it with water, go to the altar , put it there, pray, drink only a sip of the water, then pour the rest of the water back in the pool.
That will opwn the door in the room, containing a spirit “boss” (easy) and will get you a bad ass armour. ^^
Ok iv killed Zathrian and now i cannot get out of the room. both doors are locked and i cant talk to the wolf that standing in middle of room. plz help
sry nnm reloaded and did again. it just gliched no me
to magnus, trie too change the language in the ps3 menu or the xbox menu to another language and then go back in to the game and trie talk to the wolf now
It says follow the ghost, the ghost has gone he doesn’t like me
lol how do i find him?
i killed the wolf and zathrian asked me to go with him but i picked to look around and now i cant get out of the room and all the doors are locked does any one now how to get out
So this is messed up, while i’m running around in the ruins, just about to get to the arcane horror area, it says saving, and warps me into a completely different room where the ghost mother is, the metal door is locked and i’ve killed everything in the room. Theres no other doors or ways out, what do i do?
i am at the part were i took that mage guy’s side and killed the lady of the forest, then the wolves attacked and killed them then right after that i killed that danish mage guy, and now im stuck in the last room all doors are locked and no idea wat to do plz help !!
what do i do at the fountian and alter
im at the part where there is the fountain and altar, and when i pray after filling the jug all the water boils, and i cant take a sip because it says there is no water left in the jug. what do i do? I’m playing the PS3 version.
People this is an RPG, and RPGs require exploration, if you can’t do the Elven ritual quest then I suggest you return to the area where the boy calls Maeme or w/e and look for a sarcophagos excuse my spelling its late lol, it has an Elven tablet in it then go back to the pool and do this:
*Take the earthen jug
*Fill it with water
*Leave the pool
*Place it on the altar
*Kneel and pray
*Examine the jug
*Take a sip
*Dump it back in the pool.
Voila, takes 3 seconds to do lol.
~ To get the werewolf ending use the persuade option on the dialouge with the lady of the forest (kill the elves etc.) I don’t know what level corceion you need but I always max it out to start with always have.
~ The dragon is easy to kill (I play on nightmare otherwise the game is boring) so not sure about your problems, have all ranged members away from its fire and rouges/non tank melee damagers attack from the rear, use taunt with your tank to keep agro it goes down in seconds (I am only level 8 on this playthrough didn’t trouble me)
~ I reccomend helping the oak tree, you can gain the exp you lose for not killing him by simply putting your hand in the hermits tree stump and taking the items, if you havent done that part before then tak the hermit, tis a fun dialouge, once the gameplay starts and you are in combat with him (tree stump part, you cant attack him otherwise) MOVE YOUR HEAlER/RANGED damagers away from your meleers.. Then you will have no problem killing him. Take out the rage demons first.
Also, very useful- Use the radial menu to look for items (it highlights all items in the area)
Hope this helped you out,
Nighty night.
