As you approach, you'll see the cultist scout holding Umbric and Arator. If you're ranged, DON'T kill the cultist before Arator says, "Wait, it's a trap!", or you'll have to kill him again, like my hunter just did.
That is every comment on this page.

What to do
Description
I've heard some odd rumors myself. Strange happenings to the south--but also to the east and west, and the north. Tranquillien is surrounded by enemies, it seems. Since you are so dead-set on your investigation, would you look into something for me? There is an important report I need from one of my scouts. Check in with them, while I check over the rest of town.
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.
- The First to Know
Notes speaking of fear, of uncertainty--of some mysterious truth? This is not good, <name>. By all accounts, it sounds as if a cult has managed to infiltrate Tranquillien. If that journal entry was true, Kasiea was attempting to leave it. We must tell Antenorian.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Ransacked Lab
My notes, my research... I never should have left it alone. I was just beginning to understand the Voidstorm! Everything I'd learned, torn from my hands by cultists... Were they watching the entire time? Waiting for me to turn my back? I cannot let this stop me. They can't have destroyed everything.
