Description

You've impressed these Wastelanders with your violent prowess, my champion. Well done. Now let me do my work.

I know what these former oracles want. They dream of hearing the Song of K'aresh once more. I must make them believe it is possible, then pull on that string of desire. Soon we will have our army, and another Reshii Ribbon.

First, let's return the Tabiqa ritual dagger.

You turn in this quest to the Soul-Scribe at /way 63.2 39.0

When I attempted this, she was unfriendly to me (Orange) and the surrounding mobs were hostile, though they don't attack. You will be unable to turn in the quest as a result. Logging out and back in fixed this for me. The mobs became neutral and I was able to turn in the quest.

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.

  • Enemies of EnemiesK'aresh · Level 80

    The Wastelanders have made camp in the ruins of old K'aresh. A sanctuary from the ravenous beasts of the Void that stalk the wastes of K'aresh. A bulwark against outsiders. If a hostile entity were to enter their camp, you could defeat it--then they would respect you.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Stalking StalkersK'aresh · Level 80

    I've planted the seed, yet Soul-Scribe still hesitates. Her daughter Narathe is more receptive. She might be able to give us the nudge that's needed to win the Wastelanders over. Daughters are useful. Go with Narathe. Win over their tribe. I will stay here and continue to work on Soul-Scribe's will.
