I happened to enter a m+ group and get summoned out of this area wondering if I will be even able to somehow get back there. Turned out days later, and I noticed it randomly, that this place is actually in Silithus (the open entrance), at the southern border with Uldum. You can simply fly there and finish the chain (:

Description

We were overwhelmed by her companions. Moraidormi was still killed. I need another strategy, one that will actually protect her. She is what matters. Go rewind time, including our actions. After the rewind, I will hold time in place. Then we can try to make defenses for her.

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.

  • Violence Will Solve ItThaldraszus · Level 70

    Do you not agree that Moraidormi can be saved? We infinites often save those we think suffered needlessly--worthy or not. Supposedly, Mori died too close to the Caverns of Time just east of us. Using too much time magic here could have... consequences. But this should be quick.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Fate We MakeThaldraszus · Level 70

    We just need to be stronger and faster! We cannot leave it like this, not with the eggs also destroyed. I will come up with another idea. Restart time, and... <Eternus sighs.> Perhaps I will listen to Nozdormu. He keeps telling me I have "missed" something...
