A Ritual of Runes

A Ritual of Runes is a quest for level 70-80 in Siren Isle, added in The War Within. It is step 5 of 16 in the Siren Isle Weeklies storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Siren Isle at 51.5, 48.3. It rewards 9,500 experience and money. Completing it counts toward 1 achievement.

Description

I went to investigate a cave nearby, and I came across some Bloodwake vrykul that were conjuring something... something that activated my threat mitigation protocols.

I calculate that if they complete their ritual, it would be disastrous for the island.

<name>, please assess the cave and stop their ritual before something terrible occurs!

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.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Shoreline StandSiren Isle · Level 80

    This storm will not drive me from my sacred duty. This cave must be defended at all costs! This new crystal may still be shrouded in mystery, but we will never understand its secrets or its relation to Beledar if we allow it to fall into the grasp of these wretches who crawl from the ocean's abyss.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Peak PrecisionSiren Isle · Level 80

    Flying? It ain't for me. Sally Boltwrench wanted me to activate a bunch of survey machines to monitor the wind currents, but it's too rough up there and the heights give me the heebie jeebies. An' I get sick every time I try. Use the Go-Pack to activate the machines for me. I'll owe ya one!
