Lords of the Fallen A Captain's Journey Quest Walkthrough
You will find Stomund, Captain of the Fidelis standing in an archway next to a human-sized bell. He will first recognize the lamp you carry and address you as the "lampbearer" before he introduces himself. He goes on to tell you that the Umbral Lamp was originally intended for him, but the Exactors have found a new instrument, which is the Deathless One. Stomund is a leader among a group of men and women who have taken arms up against the corrupted sentinels, while he is wary of you at first, he indicates the possibility that your aims may align in the near future, or perhaps not.
After exhausting his dialogues, you can now interact with him again to view all his items for sale.
A Captain's Journey
After some time, we aren't exactly sure what triggered the movement of Stomund, Captain of the Fidelis, but he left his station in Skyrest Bridge a little bit after we explored parts of Upper Calrath, and after defeating The Spurned Progeny. When we returned to Skyrest Bridge, instead of Stomund standing next to the doorway, we found a note had been left for the Deathless One.
This note is addressed to the Deathless One indicating that he is moving to a "bell door in Pilgrim's Perch." Take note that Stomund will also leave additional items like Map of Belled Rise and Pilgrim's Perch Key if not previously bought. Then, if you talk to Eustace and Nathaniel, the members of the Fidelis in Skyrest Bridge, they'll tell you that he's left for the Manse.
Your next encounter with Stomund, Captain of the Fidelis will take place in the Manse of the Hallowed Brothers before you formally enter the Abbey. He is seen at the bottom of the steps that will lead into the Abbey of the Hallowed Sisters from a small garden. This area is unmissable and is part of the main path of the questline so just keep going until you reach this area.
He tells you that he is hesitating to trespass because of the orders of the old world, however, he shares with you that the Immaculate Lady awaits him, forcing him to do so. He goes on to tell you that he needs to speak with Judge Cleric and seeks an audience with her so she will know what has become of the Hallowed Sentinels.
After exhausting his dialogues, check the additional items now available in his Merchant inventory. Additionally. you will need two things in your upcoming task for Stomund's quest:
- Damaged Standard - Once you reach the end of the Manse of the Hallowed Brothers, go to the courtyard and proceed to the area marked with progression, then jump down the archway to the right. You will see another stairs at the edge with a blocked door nearby. You can access this room by taking out your lamp and peering into the Umbral realm. You will find an elevator inside, then use it to reach the underground cellar. Stay on the path and unlock the gate at the end to retrieve the Damaged Standard from the ankle-deep flood in the cellar.
- Tattered Banner - From the Main Altar in the abbey (this is the same arena as Rapturous Huntress of the Dusk where you will interact with the Rune of Adyr). While facing the altar, go to the left side and go up by using 2 flights of stairs and head outside to the courtyard. You will find yourself in a large open area and a gazebo blocked by a gate in the distance. Peer into the Umbral Realm to bypass the gate and take the Saintly Quintessence by soulflaying the Umbral Tumor. Picking up this item will trigger an enemy to spawn behind you which will drop the Tattered Banner upon defeat.
Once you get inside the Abbey of the Hallowed Sisters, you will encounter Stomund once again after you unlock the gates. He is located in the garden surrounded by statues and trees at the bottom of the steps. You will see him there as soon as you enter. Then, he will move further again into the Abbey of the Hallowed Sisters.
Stomund's Location in the Abbey of the Hallowed Sisters
From the Vestige of Rosamund, enter the archway in front of the Vestige. This path is filled with enemies waiting in every section so defeat them carefully. Continue to follow the main path and go up the stairs to take you further into the Abbey. There is an Umbral Tumor blocking the way forward so to bypass this, cross over the Umbral Realm and Soulflay it to reveal the tunnel behind it that will take you to the inner area of the Abbey.
Follow the stairs and go up where you will be fighting more enemies. At this point, you will find an Emergence Effigy at the foot of the stairs. Return to the Axiom Realm and head up the stairs again. Continue making your way to the top where you will be fighting an Ardent Penitent.
After that, take two flights of stairs to the right and follow this path. Make a left until you reach the inner courtyard where enemies are surrounding the tree in the center. Look for the stairs on the left corner while facing the tree and head up the stairs once again. As soon as you reach the second floor, destroy the barrels and crates on your right to reveal the path to Stomund. He is standing in the hallway next to more barrels and crates.
When you meet him, he will ask you to bring 2 pieces of an ancient banner. The Damaged Standard is previously found inside a locked cell in the underground cellar of the Manse (refer above), while the Tattered Banner is a drop from the Abbess that attacks the player on the second-floor balcony in the Abbey a little later after this encounter (see detailed guide above as well). There's a gazebo past the gate, you can cross this gate by taking out your Umral Lamp and facing it going in the direction of the gazebo. Then, retrieve the Saintly Quintessence to prompt an enemy to spawn, which will drop the Tattered Banner.
When you get the two items, bring them back to Stomund. Make sure to check his Merchant Inventory as well as this will be your last encounter with him. After a while, once you reach The Empyrean, Stomund will disappear from your world, and his lifeless body will be found on the steps to the Monastery in The Empyrean, impaled upon the restored Banner of Our Immaculate Lady.
You can obtain Stomund's Armour, Stomund's Flail, and Stomund's Shield after completing the Abbey of the Hallowed Sisters. As you move towards The Empyrean, follow the main path from the Vestige of Iorelo the Cursed Knight and walk up the stairway. You will find his body together with the restored banner on the right side of the landing.
Picking up his items will mark A Captain's Journey quest as completed and you will gain the trophy: Faithful.

AnonymousOpening the door to Upper Calrath from the Vestige of the Forgotten Gaurdian triggers Stormumd's Move from Skyrest. Figured this out AFTER finishing depths and fief.

I delivered the Damaged Standard first when, then I fought the Rapturous Huntress of the Dusk and got Tattered Banner, I went back to the garden where Stomund was to deliver the second item, but they are no longer there, where can I find it? Did I lose the quest?

After completing this quest, Eustace and Nathaniel will also disappear from Skyrest Bridge. I wonder if youre supposed to give the banner to them after finding it on Stomund's corpse.

I think you just have to go up to the copse. I went there super-early, just to farm some materials. when I came back, he was gone.

Well, I screwed this up and only gave 1 banner. Weirdly enough his 2 Hallowed Sentinels bubbies (the 2 in Skybridge basement) have disappeared after failing the guest. Wonder if they are now gone from the world or somewhere else....

I didn't even cleanse the 5th beacon after the Judge Cleric and he already disappeared without me having given him the items

If you go to the empyrean before giving him the two pieces, he will disappear. Even if you have already gave him a part of the banner.
The second banner literally appears to be a once a playthrough drop from the enemy. I picked up the Saintly Q, but died to the enemy that drops it. He/She no longer appears.
