Ekun position after troll king?

[call me lucker]

I finished the quest with the troll king (dont killed him) and got a new quest to confirm Ekun that another troll is dead. Ekun should be at the guard tower before the troll king quest is done but where can I find him after the quest?

[call me lucker]

push :)

[Antinous]

Did you recruit him the first time you met him ? If you did, then he's in the very center of your capital's main square (but you might miss his Portrait/Icon because it may be below his dog's icon)

[call me lucker]

I never meet him and he is not in my party.

[Astral Projection]

Same boat here. Just wiped out the trolls but never met Ekun. Quest is prompting me to tell him about it.

[Antinous]

Then I think you lost the opportunity to recruit him.
Before going to the Dwarven Ruins, you should have recruited/meet Bartholomew, Jubilost, and Ekun.

[call me lucker]

Grml this buggy game... all 3 companions?

[Antinous]

It's not buggy, you just didn't follow the quests.
Jubilost and Ekun are companions, and advisors.
Bartholomew is an artisan, and an advisor.

« Troll Trouble » subchapter walkthrough :
*SPOILERS*

> Event card « Troll Invasion »
*few weeks/months later*

> Event « New Troll Sightings »

> Quest « Renowed Explorer » (Jubilost, in the area A Ford Across the Skunk River)

*scripted "random" encounter*
> Dalton merchant, attacked by bandits, his caravan blocked. Talk to you, he'll tell you about a wizard you should talk with (Bartholomew, but you should already had to go to Bartholomew anyway)
Ask Dalton about "Any other dangers on the road?", he will tell you about Hodag's Lair (second Amiri companion quest)

> Quest « The Nature of the Beast » (Bartholomew, in the area Lone House)

> Go to the area Ruined Watchtower
Follow the path, then a dog will appear, follow it. Meet Ekun, talk with him, pick the dialog [Stay in ambush with him].
It's enough to recruit him.

> Go to the area Kobold Camp (Ekun talked about it)

*random tho scripted encounter*
(If you never had that one, you didn't miss anything)
Illustrated Book. Sucess in the Illustrated Book will lead you to a small fight area.
(Really, you don't care about that random encounter, only 3 low items loot, and only lore-related, but no important for the main quest)

> THEN, finally, Dwarven Ruins.

Bare in mind that if you decide to recruit the Trolls as your vasals (can only be done with Chaotic alignment, and convincing Hargulka to kill Tartuk), then Ekundayo will permanently leave your party.

[call me lucker]

I was so many time by the watchtower but that never triggered.... maybe following bug after harims quest (finished tower area before get harims quest but quest marker was still there until troll king quest done).

But nice to know that Ekun will leave after that :D thanks

[Antinous]

As long as you kill the Troll King, Ekun will stay with you.

And Ekun trigger (with the dog) at Ruined Watchtower only appears during the Troll Troll subchapter.

[Astral Projection]

Oh damn, I saw that dog at the watchtower. Hmm I'll have to go back.

This part here. No where does anyone tell you to go to the Ruined Watchtower, you just happend to go on your own. Doing the wizard he gets attacked by trolls and reveals the troll lair on the map, then he tells you to go there. Also you missed the saving the child at the lake, which is actually apart of the 'Troll Troubles' chapter.

I just killed a troll and they told me to go tell Ekun and im wondering, who the hell is Ekun?

[Antinous]

There's no quest indeed who tells you to go at the Ruined Watchtower, but if I remember well, this area was marked with the exclamation mark icon.

(The Lost Child quest isn't a part of the Troll Trouble subchapter. You can complete it even in Chapter 3, doesn't change anything. And Lizardmen have nothing to do with Kobolds and Trolls anyway)

[Sam Snowman]

Check your quest book. Under the "Troll Trouble" heading is lost child. Maybe you can finish it later but it falls under this chapter, ive been trying to clear all the quests under each subchater before I finish it.

What exclamation mark icon? Not sure what your tlaking about.

[Antinous]

The icon with a red background and a white exclamation mark on it. This is the icon « New event » and often appears sometimes on some quests names. The same icon appears on areas name (just check "Location Names" in world map). But you can aswel hover with your mouse an area, if there's a new event there, it's displayed.

About the Lost Child quest, still. It just appears during that subchapter, is not a Kingdom Quest so isn't under that section, is not a single-area related so not on the bottom of quests list, ... so it's under the Troll Trouble section, but still not a part of it.
