  When the lich queen sees Tiran's arm, she says to come with her.
Is that what I think it is? Oh, my dear friend happened to you? Shortly after imprisoning her brother Tieran said to me "she needed some time to think." and I haven't seen her since. Rumor has it, Her hammer has been seen atop the Storm Guard mountains.   Her brother? A crazy demigod of lightning, don't worry about him. he can't leave his prison without outside help.

She then retrieves from a hidden floor vault and gives it to the party.   As for striking back at the Legion, the best way for you to do so is to attack their chain of command...
or you could enlist in my army and go to war.

Recap

New quest from the lich queen, found Grave Knight Farron. Now find, interogate, and kill walter.

Start 10, 9/24

Talk to farron to advance.
Farron how do I know your working for the queen? **** alright then.
Giltreude seems to be enamored with the church of the golden storm.
I believe he is trying to free the king of storms in order to make a deal with him and sent walter to make it go smoothly.
Who?
Armon, the demigod of lightning, later the king of storms. 3 Centuries ago, he declared war on the gods, in order to claim lordship over all of Excal-heim. Dozens of cities were razed to the ground and thousands were put to the blade.   Eventually, the gods sent Altrax, the demigod of wind, to reason with him, but Armon simply killed them before they could say a word, stealing their power. He forged a sword infused with his own soul that night and proclaimed himself the storm king.   He was defeated the next dawn by her royal majesty, Ereshkigal, and his younger sister, Queen Teiran of Dundering. They then entombed him within a deep steel sarcophagus and dropped a mountain on top of him, where he remains to this day.   But that's enough story time... 3 days ago, Walter was at the mana steel mines to the north of here, might still be there.
  Fight Toxic Mutablex at the mines.
