17:57 -- Ice Giant, Optional Boss.
BUG WARNING: The Ice Giant is scripted to unleash three large ice-slams. If you kill before he can unleash all of them, he may fail to die and fail to drop loot. He'll just stand there immune to all damage.

29:52 -- They Came from Somewhere Else
They are 4 nodes of pages know as the Mysteries of the Frostback Basin. Before you visit Stone-Bear Hold, it's possible to get 3 out of the 4. One is on the ruined Aqueduct visible in the Shallows region 29:52, one is on a Tevinter Ruin (by the most North-Eastern Fade Rift) 41:09, and the third is on the Rockspit region/island (you'll probably get it as part of the Ameridan's Trail quest if you don't get it beforehand) 57:30. The last pages are by Storvacker's prison; you can't reach them until you start the Storvacker Caged quest as part of the DLC's main quest.
Once all 4 pages have been found and you've met Trader Helsdim Rolfsen at Stone-Bear Hold, you'll be able to requisition a book. Deliver it to Rolfsen, and you'll be able to recruit him into the Inquisition.
30:46 -- Worthy of Publication
After speaking with Kendric, you'll learn of his assistant Colette. You'll find her at the Basin's swamp, and you'll rescue her from some Lurkers. Afterwards, she mentions wanting to visit a ruin. Worthy of Publication is complete by listening to her theorize at Nigel's Point, 44:08.
34:00 -- It Remains to be Seen
At the heart of the swamp, there are 5 glowing skulls to be found. Once all five have been found, report to the Augur at Stone-Bear Hold. He'll ask the Inquisitor to use the Veilfire in his hut to read some runes at Stone-Bear Hold's funeral site. The quest is complete upon discussing the runes' story with the Augur.
37:48 -- North-east Astrarium
58:35 -- Lead the Charge and Jawbreaker
The goal of these quests is to secure the Inquistion's hold on the Vardotten River. It's simple; go to locations marked on your map and kill the Hakkonites. Report to Lieutenant Farrow when you're done.
1:02:56 -- In Exile
On the west edge of the forest, you'll meet Sigrid. After she dismisses you, speak with the Augur to learn more about her. Investigate her failed ritual and then confront her. You can recruit her into the Inquisition at that point.
1:03:29 -- Forest Ocularum by Sigrid.
1:04:25 -- North-west Astrarium.
1:09:38 -- Fade-touched Spider
This enemy will be marked on your map as part of the A Father's Name quest.
1:11:48 -- Mystery of Winter
With 12 Oculara Shards, you can open the magical door in the north-west canyon of the Frostback Basin. The chamber contains a sarcophagus that grants a permanent Frost resistance bonus when opened.
1:26:06 -- Beasts at Bay and The Nox Morta
After Jawbreaker is complete, Baron D'Amortisan will appear north of the initial Inquisition camp. He'll give you herbs to ward some locations against beasts. At the north-west site 1:29:09, you'll find his scribe. The scribe will let you start the Nox Morta quest. He'll add the location of a research tool to your map. Defeat the two gurguts at the location and pick up the chewed item. Deliver the item to the Baron, and he'll give you bait and a location to place it. When you defeat the baited creature and report to the Baron, the quest is complete.
1:38:15 -- The Loss of a Friend
After Jawbreaker, Scout Harding will inform you of a missing scout. You'll end up following a trail of bodies to a cave. The scout has become a rage abomination. Except for the fact that killing him gains you a Master Fire Rune, the rewards for killing him or letting him wander are the same.
