e a hard battle anyway. If you use elves, remember that the villagers will attack you elf camp every night.
At the other end of the dark elf camp you will find the black gate. You can only open it from the other side.
Go back to the human village you saw earlier but only by daylight! Talk to Carvus. He explains that the
villagers are changed into wolves every night because of a curse. Go back in the direction of your human
camp to talk to Keram (near the Aria reserves). He will explain you have to get three items which are held by
three gargoyles. They can be found on the east side of the map. Go through the portal in the north to get
there.
Easy way:
Evidently, the trick is to not activate the human monument. Go to the north-west of the map and avoid both the Urok
camp to the left of the road and a dark elf camp to the right of the road. Next, to the left you will pass a village of
humans. Go there – but only during the day - to talk to Carvus who will explain that the village is cursed. Now go back
where you came from to look for the blacksmith called Keram who is left of the road near some aria. He will explain he
has lost 3 items, which should stop the curse. You will have to find 3 gargoyles, which each have one of these items.
Now go to the north-east through the pass directly north of the elf camp. You will find a small Urok camp. Destroy it (with
only your Avatar). Now advance to the east and deal with some spiders on the way to the portal. Pass through it to the
eastern part of the map.
Eastern side of the map:
Activate the bindstone and head east to find a hero monument. There are a few Uroks and the monument is
guarded by a bunch a goblins. They are not that strong but it is one against many. Slay their buildings and
summon your heroes. Behind the monument is the first gargoyle. Defeat it and get the first artefact. Now go
back a little bit and head north. There is a white spider to kill. There is a corps lying on the floor that holds
some items..
Return to the monument and head south-west until you reach three dark elf towers. Here is also the second
gargoyle (and the second artefact). Go back to the monument again and head south-east this time. Destroy
two Urok camps on the way until you reach a dwarf twon. There is a bindstone here and a chest with an
empty runestone. Talk to Borondir. You can now use all the dwarfs in this settlement (there are only 5). Go
further south through a small mountain passage; there are two chests and another corps on the floor.
Go back to the location of the second gargoyle. There is a closed gate there. Talk to Borondir and he wil
open it. Now follow he path to the south until you reach the black gate. Bring down the dark elf towers and
the gate (the dwarfs are good help here). Now the passage to the west-side is open again. From a dark elf
town further south, troops will be heading to the gate. Now it is time to bring in your army. You will face
waves of attacks by large groups of soldiers or large hordes of Uroks. The fight will be heroic!
Try to move your army southward as soon as possible to destroy the dark elf city. Once you destroy all the
buildings, the waves of attacks will stop. There is a chest in the city with a piece of a blade princeps and also
a yellow bloodgem (see sidequests below). South of the camp is the third gargoyle. Now, go eastward to
wards an Urok camp. There is a path north here where there is a chest to inspect. Now, destroy the Urok
camp to reach the portal to Shal Dun.
However, you still have to free the human camp from the curse. There are three altars where you have to go
to. One is directly north of the large dark elf camp you just destroyed, the second is directly north of the dark
elf camp on the west side of the map and the third one is east of the Urok camp which was located directly
north of the human monument. On each altar you have to one of the artefacts you found on the gargoyles
(only the right artefact will be accepted; if you choose the wrong one some skeletons will appear to fight
you). Now, go back to Carvus to tell him the good news to receive a small price and experience points.
Sidequests:
In a chest in the large dark elf camp you have found a piece of a blade princeps and a yellow bloodgem.
You can go to Mirraw Thur and use the yellow bloodgem to build the last bone weapon.
With the piece of the blade princes you could go to the Masked One in Tirganach.
Now go back to Nevershade Frontier and pass the portal to Shal Dun.
13. L09. Shal Dun:
This level will have some heavy fighting again. Your Avatar should reach level 20 by now (if you took the
hard way) and there is a lot of additional experience to gain here if you take the hard way.
Watch the clip in which Dracon Craig Un’Shallach promises he will give you some troops, later.
