Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning Walkthrough Part 29 – The Midden Sidequests

Head toward the Camp that is to the east of the House of Sorrows and south of the Proving Hall. Here you will encounter the Headsman who challenges you to a duel. Best him, he retreats and you are approached by Betheli Jons who gives you “A Time To Reap”. Next talk with Kreger the Devout to get the task “In Memoriam”. Finally, talk with Zanvil Whit to get the quest “Elf's Best Friend”.

A Time To Reap
As you follow the path from the House of Sorrows. You will find the Headsman who blocks your path to the Alfar camp in front of you. You will find Tinehil on the eastern side of the Midden. Inside Tinehil  you will spot the Headsman in the entrance. Approach him and he will explain things from his perspective. Now it is time to go deeper into Tinehil and find him once again. Head north into the next chamber. Inside you will find 6 Pestilent Brownies waiting for you. Now head to the northeast, jumping down to the lower level. Turn to the southeast and walk into the lake. Continue to the southeast in it. Keep to the water and you will find a door that leads to the next part of Tinehil.

Inside this chamber is a squad of 6 Sprites, 2 of which are Storm Champions. Defeat them then turn to the Northwest. Just ahead of you hides the Headsman. Here you can, if you are good at persuasion, talk him into just letting things be. Otherwise, you need to fight him. All the same tactics he used before apply. He is a steady hand with the Faeblades to be warned. Now just head to the southwest to get out of here. Jump down, head back into the water but take the turn to the southwest and you will have a clear shot to the door. Now just return to the camp south of the House of Sorrows and report back to finish out this quest.

In Memoriam
Scattered throughout the Midden are Alfar corpses. Loot the bodies to collect their earrings and bring them back to Kreger. Just wander around and loot any corpses you find. You will get both money and the earrings.

Elf's Best Friend
Zanvil will release the wolf and it will take off. Head down the hill into the swamp itself. Just a little into the water you will be attacked by 3 Venomspitters and Ancient Leanashe. Defeat them and stay on the wolf's tail. It will do a fair circuit around the Midden (which makes it easy to collect all of the Lore Stones) but when it gets to the eastern side of it, you will find the corpse you are looking for. With that, return to the Alfar camp and give the report to Zanvil to complete the quest.
