Next is to locate the red-haired woman named Dorys, who will give you The Weight of Command side quest. She’s at the wooden walkway of the Boarding Deck.

After the interaction, you must fast-travel to the Dragon’s Aery obelisk. From there, head west to reach Cole and the rest of his Cursebreakers and talk to him.

Cole will then reveal to you that despite his efforts in rescuing some of the Bearers, some were still left behind. This will prompt you to save the remaining Bearers.

You must head south and slay the monsters as soon as you see them. The Bearers left behind are trapped inside a wrecked carriage, and you need to defeat those enemies before rescuing those Bearers. Beware of the monster known as the Gigas Bruiser since this is one tough nut to crack.
