Speak to Renly in The Refuge

Renly in The Refuge
After the events of Act 4, talk to The Hooded One in Kingsmarch and select the Travel to Ogham option.

Once you are in The Refuge, talk to The Hooded One and Renly.

Explore the Scorched Farmlands

Exploring Scorched Farmlands
Go to the Scorched Farmlands and go to the opposite side of the area. You will see two paths within the area. One contains Darkness that you cannot pass through as of now, and the other will lead to Stones of Serle.

Pass through Stones of Serle first in order to go enter the Darkness present in the Scorched Farmlands.

Enter the Stones of Serle

Stones of Serle Entrance
Upon entering the Stones of Serle, you will see a Runed Megalith that you can activate.

Activate all Runed Megaliths

Activating a Runed Megalith
There are 6 Runed Megaliths you need to activate, including the one you activated upon entering Stones of Serle. It is recommended to stay close to the outer edges of the area to easily find all the Megaliths.

Note that Runed Megaliths are always found right next to checkpoints, making them easy to find.

Defeat Siora, Blade of the Mists

Siora, Blade of the Mists Boss Fight
Once all Runed Megaliths have been activated, look for a runed area in the middle of Stones of Serle. Stepping on this runed area, will spawn Siora, Blade of the Mists, a boss that uses quick and continuous lightning attacks to deal damage.

After defeating this boss, wait for Una to appear and talk to her.

Go Through the Darkness in Scorched Farmlands

Holten Entrance in Blackwood
After defeating Siora and talking to Una, you will be able to go through the Darkness found in the Scorched Farmlands.

This area is called Blackwood, and has numerous enemy packs waiting in the dark to attack you. Make sure to use your minimap to reach the opposite side of the area.

Enter and Explore Holten

Holten Estate Entrance
On the other side of Blackwood lies the entrance to Holten. It has a relatively straightforward layout, but is still full of enemy packs. Make your way to the other side of the area and look for the entrance to Holten Estate.

Another entrance leads to Wolvenhold, which has the Oswin, The Dread Warden optional boss. Defeating this optional boss will grant you 2 additional passive skill points.

Visit The Ferryman in the Middle of Holten

The Ferryman in Holten

The Ferryman is a merchant NPC that can be found on the docks in the middle of Holten. He sells a variety of Greater Runes, which are useful for leveling up.
The Ferryman Location

Enter Holten Estate

Staircase in Holten Estate
Once you enter Holten Estate, navigate through the maze-like hall until you reach a staircase that leads to the upper floor. Continue going through the estate until you reach another staircase, which leads directly to this Interlude's final boss.

Find and Defeat the Thane and Lady

Thane Wulfric and Lady Elswyth Boss Fight
You will need to fight Thane Wulfric and Lady Elswyth. One specializes in melee attacks, while the other uses a variety of AoE skills.

Upon defeating the duo, return to The Refuge and talk to Renly. This concludes the Recruit the Ezomytes Interlude Quest.
