Main quests[ | ]

The Hollowing of the Dyrwood The White March
The Hollowing of the Dyrwood is the main quest line in the game, centering on Waidwen's Legacy, its impact on the people of the Free Palatinate of Dyrwood, and the protagonists' struggle to come to terms with their status as a Watcher. The White March is an additional main quest line added by the expansion The White March - Part I and continued by the expansion The White March - Part II. It is integrated into the main campaign, so you don't have to start a separate game.
Act I

You need to solve Never Far from the Queen before the White March will start.

Act II
Part 1
Act III
Part 2
Act IV

As soon as you jump into the pit, you are unable to finish any previous quests.
