Description

Traditions should not hold us back, <name>. They should inform the future.

<Maiev looks at Lysander before turning her gaze back to you.>

I have let my perceptions hold me back as well. No more. I am tired of seeing rifts between our people, regardless of what they use to better themselves or the world.

It is time I give Lysander his marking. The kaldorei are no strangers to change. Our traditions should adapt to our lives, not define them.

Just helped my wife with this, so I did a google search and found this: Stand in the targeted area and click on the Observe the Ceremony extra action button. Turns out the button was under one of her add-ons, so check that or maybe have to disable them to ensure it appears correctly.

Reward details

Currency: Flightstones x 10

Earned from completing world quests, raids, dungeons, battlegrounds, arena matches, and other activities. Used to upgrade max-level gear.

Item facts are the current retail client’s (ItemSparse); the specialisations for a pick-one item are the ones the Blizzard quest API lists; faction and currency text is the client’s own. Lowest listed price = the US commodity auction house now.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Wardens' WrathLevel 50-90

    Lord Hel'nurath's hubris gave me an opportunity to study what he's doing. I think I found a way to give us an opening to strike. <Arko'narin glances at her brother.> I fear this will take a lot out of Lysander. But I know he'll give it everything he has. Perhaps...

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Honor of the GoddessLevel 50-90

    Today is a day of celebration, <name>. And a day of new beginnings. Arko'narin and Lysander have reminded me that the kaldorei are no strangers to change. I forget, sometimes, how long I was away, and just how much my kin have progressed in my absence.

The storyline at a glance

Night Elf Heritage Armor has 12 steps, from The Clarion Call to Honor of the Goddess.
