What to do
Description
Our assault on Brimstone Garrison will not work without Sabellian and his relentless and mighty dragons. We must convince him that our objectives are aligned. If we appeal to him as a tactician and general, I'm sure he will help us... I hope. We will find him with his troops at the Djaradin Assault.
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.
- Fading Embers
This is a difficult situation, my friend. Wounds and insecurities cannot be easily dismissed. Only time--and cooperation--can soothe the sting born of longstanding rivalries. But there are more urgent matters to address.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Appealing to the Black Prince
Our assault will not be successful without the stealth and cunning of Wrathion and his Blacktalon agents. We must convince him to help us. Thankfully, I know in his heart he will not deny someone in need--especially if they flatter him. Let us go to Wrathion at the Obsidian Rest and try to sway him.
