Quest Description:
“If the Reed Devil escapes, it would put your Greymane comrades at grave risk. Hunt him down.”
Track the Devil of the Reed Field
As in “Nonhuman”, track the Reed Devil with your lantern. Before you start tracking, take your time to activate the nearby fast travel platform. Could be useful in the future.
Then, start tracking the Reed Devil. Follow the road to the southeast. On the way, destroy the turning pillars. Doing so will prevent attackers from appearing. They can also be destroyed by arrows.
The road leads to the Mountain of Frozen Souls Hearth. There is another fast travel platform before you arrive there.
