For the reason why Sir Shane the Shy has come to the Dales, you need only look to his moniker. Despite his bravery, Sir Shane suffers from crippling social anxiety. So when he found himself inundated with invitations to all manner of ball, gala, and courtly function at the onset of his first social season in Stormhelm after becoming a knight, he predictably found this deeply troubling. To make matters worse, he couldn't just decline the invitations. He needed a valid reason to excuse himself from attending, lest he offend the nobles that invited him.
That's where the Dales come in.
Since a number of the most popular luxuries in Stormhelm arrive on the Shiverwash from south of the Bridge, the recent rumblings of strange and mysterious things awakening in the Dales have the city folk worried about the flow of their favorite imports being effected by whatever superstitions have set the Dalespeople on edge. And so Sir Shane has decided to embark on a quest to investigate the Dales and ensure the imports continue to flow as a way to get out of his social obligations without wounding anyone's pride.
His main motivations are to live up to the standards and ideals that all Knights of Stormhelm are held to, conduct himself with all the honor expected of his station, stand his ground and show no fear against the evils of the world, and also to avoid social situations as much as possible.
As for personal goals, Sir Shane does recognize that being as shy as he is is a problem. So he is definitely looking for a way to deal with that.
