You learn about this quest from Koluhm if you visit him at house (415,931).

>>According to [Arachree Mae]
"Talk to Phaen (Targos city) using high diplomacy will easily get him to say about who his higher ups is. First off talk about you don't have to fight or some such thing and something like you could help him doing the evil deeds (therefore don't use paladin, they won't offer the helping part) he'll slip saying his boss. Of course for this info you get XP." quest - diviner

When ask about the troubles that Elytharra has, she'll ask you to help her illed diviner Valin inside temper pavillion (1237,577).
Valin is the green dress guy at north. when talk to him, he will say 'braehg'. You can also pick pocket him to get a note he kept for pick-pocketer. Don't worry about it, a failed pick pocket would not turn anyone hostile, so just pick and pick until he is empty. You can buy braehg from Guthewulfe in Salty Dog Tarven. When you cured him, he tells you your fortune and you report back to Elytharra for real fortune. quest - doppleganger

You'll come across two teams of soilders headed by a sergeant. Pick either team and talk to the sergeant to help him train the troop. i would suggest you to use a cleric to do so. Different cleric of different domain will result in different conversation.
Once you entered palisade, move a bit north, you'll come across some guys attacking a keg. Destroy the keg and teach those people a thing or two. quest - got wine?
-----------------
South-eastern part (3274, 2293) stood Niles. He needs some wine. you can of course give him. However, if you clear his mind that this is a war that

Illigmar. Talk with them to get some stories about them. Before you leave, you can ask about how they clear all the rats in the warehouse in targos dock. you can show the cat which you kept from targos dock to them.

The three assignments that Shawford gives you are boring and simple. While running back and forth, you can ask the help of Swift Thomas for quick navigation.
First - Report to Olap at (2573, 526) to find out that the wood he demanded haven't arrive. Lumbar Grundwall at targos town (1226,1654) is having trouble with his crane. Olap's father at targos dock can fix the problem. Bring the part to place in crane, report to Olap then
Shawford.
Second - Isherwood (646,2093) need arrows. Go to Gallaway Trade Depot in
Targos town, convince that boss that if targos lost, everything is lost, so that she will deliver that arrows with haste. Report back to isherwood and shawford.
Third - Shawford needs information from Koluhm in targos town (421, 939).
Send the highest 'knowledge (arcana)' to talk with Koluhm so that the goblins tongue can be translated.
>>[Daniel Johansson] is proud with his multi-linguistic drow "you could aswell use a drow... My drow wizard said something like "my race knows something of the goblin tounge"... So it wasnt probably based on arcana in that case."
Forth - The Iron Collar band are needed in palisade. You are to convince them. Since you already found out about phean, who travelled together with them to Targos, you can use this to make them report back to palisade.
Note that once you report the forth fetch to shawford, you'll engage with 3 waves of goblins fight. So be prepare. main quest - saving targos
--------------------------
Once 4th fetch quest is done and reported to Shawford. Goblins will attack palisade in 3 waves. Anything from this point untill you finish the whole thing, you cannot rest. So conserve your spells. You can heal for free inside Shawford building with the help of the cleric. For first wave, you can use your spellcasters wtih range attack. Second wave is harder, you can choose to use 1 summon spell there. 3rd wave is the hardest. Leads by
Caballus, a sorcerer. Dish out everything you can, summon anything you can.
==CONCLUSION==
When all these finishes, you emerged as goblins slayer and saved the town from the attack. Report to Ulbrec for xp, new mission, gp. Once you exit through north-western tip of palisade and enter the world map, you'll be able to choose Shaengarne Ford, that starts chapter 1.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. chapter 1 ppg05
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
==OVERVIEW==
It's time to strike back. There are two main missions in this chapter.
Once complete, threat to Targos will temporaily slove. The first mission is to save Shaegarne Bridge. the second one is to strike at Horde Fortress so that the main threat could be eliminate.
Enemies are everywhere and i would not mention every band, just keep your sword sharp everywhere you go.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1 shaegarne fort ppg06
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Simply save Shaegarne Bridge. Of course, along the way, you would meet with some troubles.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.1.1 somewhere before village ppg07
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
As soon as you arrive at the first area, you'll be greet by Torak. Beyond the kegs wall are several orcs. All the orc band will be accompanied by at least one shamamn which works as a cleric but more agressive. You throw some summons inside the wall and let those orcs get busy with them first.
Work your way till a junction where you meet Torak for the second time. To north is the main path, to east is a house. Clear the orc near the house first then north. Now here is a new toy called 'keg of blasting'. It will brust into area effective fire whenever it is attacked by fire damage.
Orcs use these to piss you off, so beware and be prepare to back off when you see any keg starts to count down. Usually there will be a runner who place the keg where he sees fit, Then a firestarter will shoot a fire arrow at it.
Killing orcs along the way untill you reach a campside up north where you meet with Dereth Springsong. He needs you to clear the orcs outside his house, which you did just now. Then he wants you to save his wife. He will open a blocked path to you and then teleport away. You can always goto his house (2371, 1625) and ask him to let you rest there. Also near the campside are woods that block your exit. You'll need to destroy both side so that you can get through. The first side would be here. the second side would be later.
Return back to where you started this area at (870, 2503). Run along the forest path till an opening and a junction. To north is the main path, to west which blocked by a blasting keg is Dereth's wife, Sabrina. Work your way to save her. She will mention an ambush, and open another blocked path for you at northeast. Be sure to propose escort which yields extra xp. Now that Sabrina is saved, she can offer some spell scrolls for you wizard's need. Of course report back to Dereth for reward.
Off to the ambush we go. Keep on going till the end. Off the edge you can see a line of blasting keg. Ignite one to set off a chain reaction. Take a long run back to the juntion where you saved Sabrina. Continue north and meet Torak for the 3rd time. Destory the second side of the roadjam. Move north and meet with Torak the 4th time and watch him run away. Of course kill everyone and then follow his path and leave the place.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

If unfortunately you damaged her during the fight. she still fights with you. but when the fight is over and you talk to her, she will teleport away.
Later in other area, she will ambush you with her gang. I would suggest not to damage her anyhow since this is not healthy for your xp. Plus, moonblade is not an excellent weapon to keep for yourself. sometimes, you damaged her
Overall, you'll need reach Ulbrec and he will assign you to Shawford Crale for further instruction. By the way, Ulbrec's wife sells a dagger that slay goblins. Since you will encounter a lot of goblins until the end of chapter one, you might want to invest on it. quest - weeping widow
