Meet Taash at The Hall of Valor

Kataranda The Stormrider - Meet Taash at The Hall of Valor
Meet with Taash at the Hall of Valor and read the Note on the bulletin board to begin the quest. The note tells of a recent dragon attack just off the coast, potentially by Kataranda - a notorius Stormrider.

Recover Kataranda's Treasure

Investigate The 1st Wreck

Kataranda The Stormrider - Recover The 1st Treasure
Whoever that Lord of Fortune was, they almost succeeded in getting Kataranda's treasure. You need to investigate 2 wrecks scattered across Rivain Coast. This 1st one is just along the beach. Investigate the wrecked boat. The treasure is hidden somewhere in the area near the wreck.

Investigate The 2nd Wreck

Kataranda The Stormrider - Recover The 2nd Treasure
The 2nd wreckage is in the same area where you 1st ecountered the Vinsomer during the quest The Dragon Slayer. It'll have some enemies you'll need to clear before you can start investigating.

After clearing all enemies, you can interact with several sand mounds near the wreck. Interact with them until a Crow is marked nearby. It later flies off with the treasure, meaning you'll have to chase after it.

Recover The Treasure Piece

Kataranda The Stormrider - Recover Treasure Piece
Follow the quest marker to the cliffs, after which 3 locations will be marked. Check each one until you find the treasure piece. At that point, you would have recovered all of Kataranda's missing treasure.
