Misled

Look at that mess! Last dispatch we had from the Lieutenant stationed in Gotland indicated the village was still secure. Poor wretches. No one in that town stands a chance against a crazed sorcerer. Even Lieutenant Kaltenbach fell under his evil sway. Polk has tentatively taken over his post, and all things considered, he's doing a fine job so far... but Gotland is still in a bad way. Go see if any of the villagers need our help. We'll make room for them here if we need to. And see to it that Kaltenbach is punished for his desertion! Oh, and if you see Sergeant Polk, tell him you're there to lend a hand. Poor fellow's got only a handful of soldiers at his disposal, so he could use all the help he can get!

Go to the Pit of the Forsaken inside Gotland. Find Gernar Kaltenbach on his patrol there and execute him. Report to Sergeant Polk at the Troll Country border when finished.
