Ostagar
To begin this quest, you must first go to Bann Loren's Lands, which are located on #22 of the World Map. When you arrive, you'll notice a loner being accosted by several armed men. Whether or not you intervene and fight them is up to you. Either way, their leader will stab him first before either leaving or fighting you. When you speak to him, he reveals that he was a member of Cailan's honor guard. He intimates that it is important for the Grey Wardens to get to Cailan's royal arms chest in Ostagar, both for the powerful sword it holds as well as correspondence between Cailan and the Empress of Orlais that are perhaps best left secret. This then makes your Return to Ostagar possible.
