Dialog from quest:
Speak with Rothan at loc=24858,8478,20828 dir=334 Abandoned Mines.

The gnoll spotter taunt's 'We're coming little kobold... Don't think your flimsy little barrier and weak efforts can keep us out for long!'

Rothan says, "Hello, (your race). I thought I would never see anyone passing through here anytime soon. This is such a relief as I am trying to board up this gap in the wall to prevent the gnolls on the other side from getting through. To my misfortune I have run out of wood, and I cannot make the trip to the Undercity to [retrieve] any more."

Rothan says, "I think the Gods are smiling upon me and my fortune is turning for the better though, as you and I have crossed paths. You would help me immensely, (your race) if you would slay the creatures on the other side of the broken barricade or if you would run to the Undercity to fetch me more wood. Would you mind providing me [assistance] with this small task? I will reward you for your time and effort."

Will you aid Rothan? [Levels 22-24]
You have been given the Rothan's Barricade quest.


[Step #1] Speak with Rothan about the barricade and gnoll spotters.

Rothan says, "Thank you! This will certainly help me [out]."

Rothan says, "You can just slay the gnolls spotters just beyond this wall. They are coming from down that mineshaft so you may need to venture down through there. Then I will not have to worry about them pushing through again for awhile. You could also just travel to the Undercity and speak to Thadon to retrieve some wood. Tell him that Rothan sent you and he will know what to do. We have an agreement him and I. Now please hurry along as I am not sure how long I can hold these gnolls at bay."

Rothan tiptoes up to the opening in the mineshaft wall and studies it nervously.

[Step #2] Help Rothan with his barricade situation. You can slay all of the gnoll spotters on the other side of the gap in the wall opposite of Rothan. Or you can travel to the Undercity and speak with Thadon Ygdrikis to get some wooden planks.
