* '''Objective:''' Help the guards repel the dead
* '''Bonus Objective:''' None* '''Type:''' [[Kill Quest]]
The player need only engage a small handful of zombies, and then wait for a few more to spawn once the original wave is dead. The player will be (slightly) aided by the captain and the Tristram guard. Once the task is complete, the player will speak to the captain, explaining that they are looking for the fire from the sky, the fallen star. Rumford will say:
* '''Objective:''' Travel to the Slaughtered Calf Inn and speak with Leah
* '''Bonus Objective:''' None* '''Type:''' [[Kill Quest]]
There is, again, only one direction to go in this early in the game. As well, on the [[minimap]], the player will notice the quest is highlighted with a specific icon, making the Inn very hard to miss.
The player will then earn their first quest reward.

* Note: [[Bron the Barkeep]], the [[NPC]] behind the counter in the inn, is one of the first [[vendor]]s a player will encounter. While it's unlikely a new player will have a burning need to sell their junk items, it is available if wanted.
* '''Objective:''' Talk to Captain Rumford
* '''Bonus Objective:''' Player may also do x.* '''Type:''' [[Kill Quest]]
The player must then return south down the path back to Captain Rumford, right past the indefatigable [[Mr. Meat Wagon]].
While the player has proven a much more adept demon undead slayer than the good captain, Rumford is still not impressed, telling the player:
::''I admire your courage, but [[Captain Daltyn]] and the militia were slaughtered by those things. Only I survived.''
* '''Objective:''' Slay the Wretched Queen in the Old Ruins
* '''Bonus Objective:''' Kill 3 Wretched Mothers
* '''Type:''' [[Kill Quest]]
[[Image:FallenStarWretchedMotherMinimap.jpg|left|frame|Wretched Mothers appearing as red dots on minimap.]]
However, the objective is simply to slay the Wretched Queen, which requires the player leaving New Tristram and traversing the [[Old Tristram Road]]. Wretched Mothers, for the bonus objective, can be found along the way to the Old Ruins if the player moves slightly off the path.
 The player will eventually meet a gate that is locked, leading into the Old Ruins. They simply need to cast any skill or spell on it, any damage at all, and it will break off, opening Inside the gate. Inside ruins are some zombies and the first [[Waypoint]] of the game (unlike in Diablo II, the waypoint does not have to be clicked on to be activated, but rather walked over or near). In this instance, however, the Wretched Queen must be dispatched before the waypoint activates. She is conveniently placed a few yards away from the waypoint.

Shortly south of the waypoint is the Wretched Queen. Much like the Wretched Mothers, she is able to vomit up zombies, the difference being that she has more hitpoints and is able to summon the zombies a bit faster than the mothers can.
Once she's dead, the quest will be updated to return to New Tristram via the newly-activated waypoint to speak to Captain Rumford (with the bonus objective of using the waypoint which was just activated).
::''Thank you for your help. But could you talk some sense into Leah? She won't give up on the idea of rescuing her uncle.''
The last bit of dialogue signifies the end of the quest, and the player is granted a reward (varies by class)of [[gold]] and [[experience]] points. The player must speak with [[Leah]] to proceed onwards.
