An Unfamiliar Sense Objectives

Head Back to Arlathan and Meet Harding

An Unfamiliar Sense - Quest Start

Go to the Crossroads and follow the quest marker to ride a ferry to Elvhenan's Haven. Once there, follow the path and fight through some enemies to unlock and arrive at the Arlathan Eluvian hub. Use this hub to go to the latter.

Once in Arlathan, head to the quest marker to meet with Harding and officially start the companion quest. Note that the quest can't start if the player is in combat, so either defeat the nearby enemies or move away from the area and return.

Help Harding Practice Her Ability

An Unfamiliar Sense - Harding Ability Practice

Once the quest starts, follow Harding to trigger an interaction about her practicing. During this interaction, players will have a few dialogue options, but most of these choices will not affect the quest's outcome.

However, players will have the opportunity to increase their romantic bond with Harding with the decision below.
