He should still be there outside the Audience Hall, but if you can't find him you're not missing much. The Dark Mane is just a pointer quest that gets you to Fort Grimwatch in Reaper's March, so you can go straight there to pick up the next storyline quest.

That is not the case. While it is part of the main storyline, it is not required to complete the Dominion story. It's only a pointer quest that takes you from one part of the storyline to the next, and it is 100% skippable. As with all pointer quests, if you've already completed the quest that it points to, it's not even possible to get the pointer quest. In this instance, if you've ever been to Reaper's March in the past and have already completed A Grim Situation at Fort Grimwatch, it's not possible to get The Dark Mane.wolonggong wrote: »The Dark Mane quest is part of the main storyline...so, without it I cannot complete the Dominion story to move on with the quest given by Cadwell, which will then prevent me from going to the Third faction. So yeah, I would be missing much.He should still be there outside the Audience Hall, but if you can't find him you're not missing much.
