The Brave Ones is a side quest in Act II of Torchlight II.
Dilawar, a Zeraphi soldier, stands outside and informs you about Ezrohir activity in a place nearby called the Undercurrents. The Ezrohir have placed Manatoxin pumps to weaken the Zeraphi. He asks you to destroy those pumps.
The Undercurrents is a small dungeon and looks like the sewers from Zeryphesh. It is a toxic area and the enemies in here are different kind of roaches (also roach nests, much like the sandrats), poison gel, tar and a few ratlins. It also have some champions. The task is pretty straight forward. You have to destroy those tube like things, which are the pumps. There are 4 in total which you have to destroy. One is not far from the entrance, just around the corner. The others are on the other side. The only path to the other side is quite crowded, so be prepared. The pumps itself aren't difficult to destroy and it takes a few hits to take them down.
When once all of the pumps are destroyed leave the area and return to Dilawar. He will thank you and you will receive the usual xp, fame and an item.

My friend, I need your help! My squad and I had observed a group of Ezrohir moving in and out of the Undercurrents. They have installed machines to pump a virulent poison into the city's water supply. Their "Manatoxin" is specifically designed to disrupt Zeraphi physiology. Unfortunately, the noxious atmosphere seems to have attracted a horde of poisonous beasts, and I only just escaped with my life. If you can enter the Undercurrents and destroy those machines for me, I will reward you. What do you say?

The Undercurrents supply Zeryphesh with water, from wells deep under the sands. Although the Zeraphi do not drink, as such, we still have need of water, and this Manatoxin is specifically designed to take advantage of that. It is a fiendish concoction, which will kill our spirits but leave our bodies intact. The creatures infesting the Undercurrents are dangerous, and will not be easily overcome. I won't lie to you: Destroying those machines won't be simple ... but it's vital, and you're the only one who can do it.
