Quest Log

A Daring Rescue (Leatherworking)

A Daring Rescue is a quest for level 10-45. It is step 21 of 45 in the Legion Leatherworking storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Azsuna at 51.7, 58.1. It rewards 6,150 experience and money.

Description

My brother, Taldranis, was on a ship headed here to Azsuna. The ship was ambushed by the sea giants and my brother was taken captive.

I believe he still lives out his days in those horrible caves, slaving away for the giants. Go and free him, please.

Take this with you, it may give him enough protection should you run into any trouble. And be careful not to get captured by the giants yourself.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Reclaimed CargoLevel 10-45

    The same ship that my brother was on also carried shipments of exceptional mail armor. Knowing the giants, they probably had no use for them and left them scattered around their caves. If you could recover those shipments and bring them here, I can explain the techniques used to fashion them.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Testing the MetalLevel 10-45

    Alright, if we're going to get out of here, we're going to have to maneuver around the naga and the sea giants. The naga probably won't pose much trouble for someone of your skill, but those sea giants are strong beyond belief. Just get me out of this cave safely and I can find my own way home.
