Description
The land provides. The land thirsts. Invaders devour what we require. Reclaim what has been consumed. Absorb what remains abundant. Wings need wind to fly. We need power to ascend.

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.
- What a Long Strange Trip
<The voice from the vision speaks through Pocopoc, albeit distant and distorted.> I... am Saezurah. Oracle. This automa... speaks with my voice. Acts with my will. For now. The pattern... is torn. Disrupted. Mending must be done. A great hunger swarms the sands. What it seeks must not be consumed.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Pop Goes the Devourer!
Once... they had purpose. Made for balance. But now... shifted, altered. Disharmonious. They rend the pattern. It cannot continue. Elimination is the only recourse.
