Now follow the yellow trail in the direction of Bowerstone where we need to meet Theresa. Unfortunately once you get to Bowerstone Road you will see that it is in fact blocked as bandits are terrorising travellers on their way to the big city. We need to travel to the bandit camp of notorious nasty Thag and defeat him and his cronies.
Head back down the path following the trail left and over the hill until you come to a pair of mysterious banners. Here is a good opportunity to revive your health or equip any weapons you want to use in the battle ahead. With that done, continue on into the bandit camp. Move up to the shack at the far end to start the confrontation. These relatively weak enemies, first coming at you in a pair, can be easily despatched using Will spells and light sword-work, or simply crossbow them at range.

This nabs you your first trophy, Thag's Head, as well as a not-too-shabby 100 Renown points.
To earn some extra points go into Thag's shack and open the chest to take the cage key needed to free the slaves (you can also find the Grubby Journal on his bed). On your way out you will encounter the owner of the slaves, who bought them from Thag. Now you can either give him the cage key for 100 gold and 30 evil points, or walk up to the cage and unlock it yourself with A for 30 good points and you will have to fight the bandit, though it's an easy contest. Finish him off to get the 100 gold he promised you anyway!
