Lothering is the first area after you have left Ostagar after the major events during the Battle against the Darkdspawn. This village has a few quests and introduces new companions. Access to it is also limited and it will be overrun by Darkspawn after you finish one of the major Main story quests.

For this reason, there are a few things to do, before you embark.

No need to log in to tick the items, the completed checkmarks will persist on the same browser.
