Tagar: All right, let's head into the inner cemetery. It's filled with undead, so we'll need to clear them as we go.

Kolina: Ulgorn! It's been too long! What brings you to this miserable place?
Tagar: Your handsome boss brought him. You're not slacking off again, are you?
Kolina: No! I've almost finished all the work you gave me. Are you just here to nag?
Ulgorn: He's acting as our guide. We're looking for some people.
When it is done
"Let's head into the inner cemetery." Gravekeeper Tagar mentioned that his assistant at the Crematorium might have seen Brok, and offered to introduce you. The deeper you ventured into the cemetery, the more wandering dead filled the area. You cleared the path to the crematorium while searching for traces of Brok.
