4. Go out of the Castle and head East. You'll come to an Inn. Go upstairs and in the far West side of the room he'll be in a room. Now speak to him.
5. Ask him about the combination and he won't want to talk about it.
6. Head back to Eohric. Talk to him to find out that Harold will open up a bit if you give him a drink.
7. Head back to Eohric and give him either a Blurburry Special or an Asgarnian Ale (he may ask for either one). Give him the ale of his choice and start to gamble with him.
8.Win enough to get an IOU. (i bet 200 gp and won first try, worked perfectly).
9. Read the IOU and on the back of it is the combination!
Here is what the IOU reads:
Here is the solution for the combination:
10. Now, go back to Denulth to find out what you need to do for the rest of the quest.
11. He'll tell you to find the way to the Plateau.
12. Head north-west to find a cave with a man named Saba in it. Speak to him.
13. He'll then tell you to find the Sherpa.
14. To find the Sherpa go out of the cave and walk a bit north on the path until you come to a wounded soldier.
15. As soon as you find him head west down that path.
16. Go into the house and speak to Tenzing. Ask him about the path that leads to the Death Plateau. In order for him to tell you about it you'll have to give him your 10 loaves of bread and trout. Also to repair his climbing boots.
17. Now... go back to the entrance to the Castle and head north-east to Dunstan (in the smithing area). Speak to him to find out that in order for him to repair the boots you'll have to get his son into the Imperial Guard.
18. Go back to Denulth and he'll allow Dunstan's son to be in the Guard by giving you a certificate.
19. Head back to Dunstan and give him the certificate and an iron bar and he'll fix the boots.
20. Then go back to Tenzing and give him his 10 fish and bread. He'll then give you a map of "the secret way."
21. Go out the north door of his house and climb over the stile. Walk down the secret path a while until you get a message saying that you should go back to Denulth.
22. Give him the Map and the Combination to finish the quest and get your reward!
