Description

<Eridia peers down at you.> Your face is new to me. <Eridia frowns.> I regret that this shall be your introduction to our temple. As my disciple has informed you, we seek the aid of all available aspirants to tend to those in our care. Do not trouble yourself over the specifics of the work that is needed. Those devoted to this temple will guide you. Seek out the disciples within. You may find me within the temple when you have given your aid.

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.

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Temple of PurityBastion · Level 10-51

    Greetings. I am Kosmas, Disciple to the Temple of Purity. The temple is a place of cleansing. Its sole purpose is to free aspirants of the burdens they carry with them from life. It is a place of quiet reflection even for those who have shed their burdens.

After this quest

  • On the Edge of a RevelationBastion · Level 10-51

    Ah! Good. You answered the call. As you can see, there are many aspirants who require our aid. Myself and the other disciples are hard pressed to deal with all of them. Some are in greater need than others. Aspirants are most at risk when they are on the precipice of a revelation.
