This is the final quest of the Spellplague arc and the last quest required to gain the Spellplague: Maps and Protector's Enclave: Complete achievements.

Objective

• Travel to the Plague Tower and kill Rhazzad.

Summary

Sergeant Knox

The wizard Rhazzad preyed on those stricken by the spellplague, promising them treatment in his "Tower of Solace". Instead he used them to power some dark ritual, causing a spellburst that devastated part of the city.

But I fear that was just a side effect.

Rhazzad is even now working to complete his ritual. He has to be stopped. For the sake of the city, and to avenge those he betrayed and killed!

Dialogue

Meet up with Sergeant Knox

Sergeant Knox

Alright people! We're going to secure the area, then and only then do we head into the tower. Rhazzad has to know we're coming, and I don't want any surprises!

Player

Alright

Corporal Linkletter

That'll take too long! He knows we're coming, and I won't let the bastard who killed my Dorothea escape! I'm going to try to find another way in!

Player

Linkletter, wait!

Sergeant Knox

Linkletter! Don't separate the team!

Damn it all to the Nine Hells, he's gone. Alright, we're moving in. Everyone, follow me!

Player

I'm ready. Let's go!

Confer with Sergeant Knox

Sergeant Knox

We got these ones, but there are still more creatures out here. We can't let them escape into the city, but we also can't leave Linkletter in there alone.

I hate to do it, but {name}, I want you to head into the tower and find Linkletter. We'll join you inside after securing the area. Only then do we go after Rhazzad.

Player

Best of luck, Sergeant!

Talk to Linkletter

Linkletter

I've found Dorothea! She's alive, but trapped! Rhazzad is on his way here and I can't open these gates.

Circle around the other way. There are secret doors I used to get here. find them, reach us, and we'll leave Rhazzad no way to escape!

Player

Wait here. I'll find the secret door.

Chase Linkletter

Dorothea Linkletter

Don't worry about me! You must find Josef. He fell into the old smuggling tunnels, where Rhazzad kept his "failed experiments". I'll be all right, just please stop Josef before Rhazzad makes him do something horrible.

After Defeating Linkletter in the tunnels

Linkletter

{name}... You must listen!

Rhazzad is at the top of the tower. He is preparing aritual that will give him power over the Spellplague!

No time to get Sergeant Knox. It's up to you. Use the statues, there's another secret path.

Now go! I can feel his power over me returning. Go, before he makes me attack you again!

Player

I'll make him pay, Josef. I promise.

Completion

Sergeant Knox

You did the right thing in the Plague Tower. I can see now I was too cautious. I'm just glad you were there and took action, or else Rhazzad would have reached his full power and destroyed the city.

Rhazzad is dead, but whoever his masters were, they are still out there plotting. And we never did find any trace of Josef or Dorothea Linkletter.

This was a costly victory, but Neverwinter will survive thanks to you... and a little bit of insubordination.
