Shadow of the Risen in Dragon's Dogma 2

Completing the “Shadow of the Risen” quest in Dragon’s Dogma 2 begins with completing one of three story missions, which are given out by Captain Brant in the tavern: “Monster Cleanup,” “Disa’s Intrigue,” or “Prisoned Lawman.” After completing one of these tasks, return to Brant at the Stardrop Inn at night and talk to him. Use up all of his dialogue threads and he'll soon mention that someone is following you.

If you fail to receive the quest while talking to the captain, leave the tavern (preferably at night) and walk around the city until one of the pawns tells you that you are being followed. For us this happened next to the statue in the market square.

Important!: This quest must be completed before the start of the 10th story quest “Festival of Deception”, otherwise it will become unavailable.

Exposing the Stalker

Look for a man in a brown hood who may turn his attention to you or try to get closer to you. As soon as you spot him, start chasing him. Capture it by pressing the RT button (R2).

Dealing with the stalker:

A stalker named Bermudo will tell you that he has been asked to follow you. Now he asks to be released as his work is completed. You have two options:

• Refuse.
• Demand compensation.

If you choose the second option, you will receive 5000 gold and 1000 experience points.

If you refuse, the pursuer will attack you. Try to detain him so that the guards will arrest him. You will find out that he was Battal's spy. You will have to wait a few days, then talk to Brant at the Stardrop Inn and complete the quest. As a reward you will receive 4000 gold and 1000 experience points.

If you accidentally kill Bermudo, you can resurrect him using the Awakening Stone found in the chests in Vermund's Funeral Home.

Let's add that by handing Bermudo over to the guards, you can get a border pass to Battal, which will make it easier for you to cross the border with this kingdom in the future.
