Walkthrough:

Warder Corporal tells you,
"While stationed here, I`ve monitored strange Drudge activities on the Isle of Tears. I have a reconnaissance mission for you: On the other side of this lake is a narrow channel you can swim to the Isle of Tears. Explore the Isle, and let me know what you find.
You should band with a fellowship for this task - I`ve seen many of the darker-orange blips on my compass. When I examined them, their names were dark- orange. I know now there are creatures on that island no one should try to take on alone."

The Isle of Tears is located directly north of the Warder Corporal. It is best to go back towards Rithwic's portal area and then towards the island so you do not have to swim as far. Head to the Drudge Fort on the island located at (26.5N, 0.5E)

Once on the island clear your way into the fort, Once you enter the main gate you will see a Drunken Drudge Sentry, do NOT attack this creature, he will spawn three Secret Drudge Militia. If you do not attack him he will not attack you. At the back of the fort you will find a Manuscript this will advance the quest.

There seem to be hidden underground tunnels beneth the fort as well. The seals on the map was addressed to the Profound Drudge Mystic from his master, the Illuminated Drudge.

Once you have done this return to the Warder Corporal and hand him the Manuscript.

Warder Corporal tells you,
"You say you found a manuscript addressed to the Profound Mystic Drudge? And then you defeated a Profound Mystic Drudge in the undergroun caverns beneath the Drudge Fort? Quickly, friend, show me the evidence you found in the Drudge Fort! The Isle must be the Drudge`s staging area for an invasion against Cragstone! Congratulations, friend. Your efforts to stop the Drudge attacks shall not go unrecorded. I shall remain here to ensure this Illuminated Drudge sends no more reinforcements to threaten our capital city. I`ll recommend you to my Rithwic associate, for you have proven yourself worthy."
"For now, I must reward you for your time and efforts. If you fellowed with others to complete this mission, tell them to talk to me so I might reward them as well."
