A Child in the Lighthouse is a side quest from Ardrouine in the Lighthouse area.

At the south-west corner of the map, near the dirt path, you will find Ardrouine.  Her son was playing in the abandoned lighthouse and is now trapped there by a pack of worgs. She pleads for your help saving her boy. Go up to the lighthouse, slay worgs in the courtyard, and return to  Ardrouine.  For your effort you will receive 60 gp, 500 XP, and +1 reputation.

Abandoned Lighthouse

Thank you so much. You've probably scared him as much as the worgs. I'll coax him down once you've left. Here, this money is all my husband brought back from market this past week but take it. My son's life is worth this and so much more.

    I cannot write for long, for I am faced with a pressing emergency: Worgs have surrounded an abandoned lighthouse to the west, and poor Ardrouine's son is trapped within. May Tymora bless the peasants of this land, for their lives are never easy.

  • Quest Completed:

    I feel ashamed to take it, but Ardrouine has thrust her last 60 gold pieces into my hands. At least her son is safe, though nightmares will surely keep him from that old abandoned lighthouse for years to come. Alas, but there flees a child's innocence, shamed and broken by the dark.
