Maras Letter

[Silverthorne]

I'm having trouble as to where to obtain Maras letter, Who's Mara and how do I get her letter?

If you have defeated Captain Okatta and freed Lord Davenmor; visit the Fargrove tavern and talk to Gileah. She won't tell you anything about Mara until Okatta is defeated and Davenmor is freed.

Mara is the daughter of Lord Graemare (which also makes her the sister of Valdane). Gileah won't tell you about Mara unless you have already been told the code phrase from Lord Graemare.

What Gileah will you is that you need to talk to travel to Harrow Ruins and talk to Mara. That is where you receive Mara’s letter.

From the walkthrough:

Mara is involved in the quest to find Valdane. Provided that you’ve spoken to Lord Graemare in Bolen Fields and Gileah at the Fargrove tavern, then you’ll find Mara here (next to the Shrine of Celestial Power) battling a group of ninjas. Mara can’t be killed, so let most of the ninjas attack Mara while you pick them off one at a time.

After the battle, Mara will reveal that she is Lord Graemare’s daughter, and that she has been traveling in disguise, looking for her brother Valdane. She’ll tell you that Valdane was captured by Demigoth slavers, and that she suspects a man named Vartugg of being behind the deed. Then she’ll give you Mara’s letter, which is an offer of truce beween her family and Vartugg. Presumably, it’s also an offer of a whole lot of money to get Valdane back. Once you've finished your conversation with Mara, she’ll tell you that she’s heading to her father’s camp in Bolen Fields, and then she’ll disappear. If you're playing version 1.4/1.5, then you'll earn a point of honor for rescuing Mara.

This step in the quest to find Valdane might not seem important, but you must have Mara’s letter in order to pass through Skuldoon and enter the Forbidden Lands.
