Description

You have helped us regain our hold on the sands, but I can sense something greater happening up on the temple platforms. Let us take to the skies and regroup with Ambassador Chronormu there. As always, time is of the essence.

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.

  • Closing TimeThaldraszus · Level 40-70

    These incursions push the durability of this timeline to the point of breaking. If only we had our full contingent of Timewalkers! Though you are a novice with the staff, I am told that you have managed to help us out greatly. With an extra push, I believe you may further aid our cause.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Time-Locked TimewalkersThaldraszus · Level 40-70

    I'm so glad you're here! I need you to stabilize the situation here on the platforms while Dante and Zera help me hold our infinite dragon friend in place. The temple's security measures locked Eternus in a stasis bubble when she tried to take control of our Oathstone.
