Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Glyph ChasingSilithus · Level 15-30

  After our initial foray into the hives and Mistress Mar'alith's subsequent madness the three hives have been spewing out bugs! The increased activity might be tied into the glyphs covering those strange crystals.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

• Unraveling the MysterySilithus · Level 15-30

  We're on the verge of a breakthrough, <name>! The rubbings you recovered have allowed us to recreate the glyphs on this crystalline prism. They are apparently a means for the Qiraji and other unknown entities to communicate various messages to the silithid.
