Avowed Dawntreader Quest Complete Guide

Avowed’s Dawntreader quest stands out as one of the most compelling side adventures in the game’s 2025 update. Players are drawn into a challenging Eothasian temple, encounter nuanced decisions, and discover hidden treasures. This guide covers every essential step, from starting the quest to choosing your ending, helping you get the most out of the [Dawntreader] experience.

How to Start the Dawntreader Quest

To begin the Dawntreader quest, you’ll need to find Ofryc, located outside the Aedyran Embassy in the Southern Paradis Administration District. He wears a blue and yellow outfit, making him easy to spot. The closest fast travel point is the Administration District Beacon. Ofryc shares that he, his brother Caedmon, and their team were sent to explore a northern temple in search of a relic called the Splinter of Eothas – rumored to heal even the gravely ill.

After talking to Ofryc, head north along the Pilgrim’s Path. You’ll face Xaurips and a black bear at the entrance between two tall rocks. Defeat them to access the path and continue the quest.

Navigating the Eothasian Temple

Inside the temple, you’ll encounter branching paths right away. One leads to a half-open gate with glowing blue and orange symbols, while the other descends into the temple’s depths. To open the gated room, use an Electric Lily Seed or an electric spell to match the receiver’s color, allowing access to loot and lore.

You’ll battle Skeleton Fighters and Monks, collect valuable resources, and find key items like books and materials. As you progress, you’ll have to choose between two main routes—one through an opening marked by Xaurip paintings and another over scaffoldings. Both converge, leading deeper into the temple.

Tips for Exploration

• Always clear Xaurip Elders first to prevent them from healing other enemies.

• Loot backpacks and containers—you’ll find potions, crafting materials, and gear.

• Be cautious of traps, especially in rooms with blue lights or bookcases.

The Fate of Caedmon

As you move through electrified water, you’ll find Caedmon injured. Players can:

• Heal him with a potion or ability (he’ll reward you with the Delver’s Caution ring)

• Leave him (you can loot the ring, but miss the reunion scene)

This choice affects later dialogue and adds emotional weight to the quest.

Meeting Sargamis and Retrieving the Relic

Climbing higher, you’ll encounter Sargamis, a godlike touched by Eothas. He sets you on a mission to find the Splinter of Eothas, hidden behind puzzles, traps, and enemy waves. Retrieve the relic by solving electric puzzles and preparing for a multi-stage boss fight featuring the Godless Executioner.

Choices and Consequences: The Oracle Sargamis

After the battle, return to Sargamis for a crucial decision. Depending on your choices and character stats, you can:

• Lie about the relic

• Attack Sargamis

• Help him with his plan (at great personal risk)

• Convince him his plan is flawed (requires high Intellect)

These outcomes affect rewards and how the story unfolds. For example, attacking Sargamis grants you the Last Light of Day sword, while persuading him can change his fate.

Choice	Result/Reward
Heal Caedmon	Delver’s Caution ring, positive ending
Attack Sargamis	Last Light of Day sword
Convince Sargamis (Scholar)	Sargamis departs, rewards sword
Help Sargamis’ plan	Risk character’s soul, unique achievement

Ending the Dawntreader Quest

Once the dust settles, return to Ofryc. You can choose to tell the truth about what happened to the expedition or spare the details. Either way, you’ll close the Dawntreader storyline and receive your final rewards.
