You’ll start the Rescue the Trapped Man quest by visiting the burning town in the northern part of the area west of The Risen Road.
Rescue the Trapped Man Walkthrough
Free the trapped man
Head to the courtyard and climb up the ladder against the left building. From there, jump over to the walkway and break the wooden door leading to the main building.
Next, you’ll want to jump inside the room and interact with Benryn, who is trapped under a piece of 2×4. You’ll need to pass a skill check to lift the board off of him.
Speak with Benryn
Follow him to the building at the other end of the walkway. Speak with him there to ask why he and Mirieth were fighting. He’ll then mention a dowry.
Find the dowry
To find the dowry, head to the west side of the area, where a couple of barns and a storage building exist. You’ll want to enter the barn on the right of the building and interact with the stack of hay.
Passing a perception check will reveal a gilded chest. Open it to collect the dowry ring.
Return to Benryn
Now that you have the dowry ring, return to Benryn. You can hand it over or tell him you are keeping it. Either option will complete the Rescue the Trapped Man quest.
