Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • To Cross the VeilBastion · Level 60

    Pallessa found a scroll detailing the ritual. We will need to take our positions and speak a chant, surrendering some of our anima with every word. Your presence is vital. I ask you to use the censers to burn the incense as we meditate. The rest should unfold on its own.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Food on the TableBastion · Level 60

    I'm making a stew for dinner tonight, but it seems we're missing rabbit meat. Would you be able to go out back and collect some for me? Oh and do be careful, I heard howling earlier. The wolves aren't normally out during the day.
