| Fort Remote | Thompson's Lair |
This fort was destoyed some years ago by a horde of demons created by the evil lord Grah-Hoth, who was slain soon after by some heros. The Fort was rebuilt a little to the west of the original. Some remains of the original buildings can be found in front of the east entrance.
| Person | Function | Items, Quests and Notes | Rating |
| Angarahad | Quartermaster | She is having a rest just in front of the east gate. She tells you a bit about rakshasi and that some of these magical beasts have a lair in the Great Cave. She is also willing to buy wine from you. | Quest |
| Fraitus | Wizard | He tells you a bit about the fortifications around this base. If you have found the note in Blosk he will tell you how to reach Thompson. | |
| Mawrrr | Nephilim cook | You can talk to him about food tastes. | |
| Lori | Commander | She will tell you a bit about Kothtar and Angierach. She would also like a Blue Empire Pass (reward: 30 xp and 4 rep!). | Quest |
| Deltarian | Soldier | This "Blademaster" will tell you about Kevtar and how to find him. | |
| Mother Madge | Priestess | Talks a bit about the woes of a priestess in an outpost such as this. She would like a new Ankh for the shrine in the next room. Although she is a priestess she does not teach any spells or offer healing. | Quest |
| Thompson | Mage | You must talk to him in order to get the coordinates of Garzahd's Fortress, but Fraitus must first tell you how to reach him. |
In the ruins in the south is an Elder Aranea. It is guarding nothing and all it leaves is an Aranea Fang for which there is little use in this game. On the other side (i.e. north) is a weak wall behind which is a body with a Blessed Spear and a coat of Cursed Plate Mail.
This outpost is well fortified. There is a corridor leading straight through to fort from east to west. This corridor and the ramparts to the west are well guarded.
The barracks and the mess where you can find Fraitus are located north of the main corridor. There is also a storeroom, the kitchen and the commander's office in this tract. Except for a few people to talk to there is nothing interesting here.
The military area does not hold anything of interest. There are some nice items in the weapon store but they are well guarded. Further south is a corridor leading to the guest rooms.
The first room starting from the east is locked. On opening the door you find a dusty bedroom and nothing more, unless Fraitus has let you into the secret of the picture. Next comes Mother Madge's room, then the rest room, which I use not only to recuperate from the exertions in the Empire controlled regions to the west, but also to store loot until I can ship it futher (e.g. Dharmon).
The last room along the corridor is a small shrine. When you replace the ankh on the altar it flashes briefly and you get 20 xp whether Mother Madge asked you to do this or not.
There is no inn in this town but you can rest in a room in the south between the Shrine and Mother Madge's room.
