Description

Ha! A distant realm, crawling with vicious evil monsters? Just like old times. Alleria, Turalyon, and I faced a thousand years of war with demons in the far-flung realms. It is as simple a solution now as it was then. Kill or be killed.

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.

  • No Fear of the DarkVoidstorm · Level 88-90

    Against all odds, we made it. I can open a way into the storm, but it will be a tenuous connection. We can only get a small team through the portal. We have no idea what awaits us on the other side. We must be prepared. I can use the Cynosure to bind us to Magisters' Terrace.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Save a Piece of MindVoidstorm · Level 88-90

    The Void here. It is like nothing else. Surely you can feel it, too? The overwhelming power... We must do something to stabilize the area. I'm barely able to keep our escape route from imploding, and the rest of our scouts... I can only hope they can hold it together. The ren'dorei know what to do.
