Cleansing the Void

Cleansing the Void is a quest for level 80 in K'aresh. It is step 3 of 4 in the Priest of the Old Ways storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in K'aresh at 77.9, 39.3. It rewards 11,750 experience and money.

Description

Now that you have brought me all that I need, the ritual of return can begin.

You see, stranger, the items you recovered were stowed in my hovel for over a hundred thousand years. The Void that surrounds us leaves its mark on everything it touches.

While grinding the mineral removed the impurities of the Void, I still need to cleanse myself and the items. Please help me with the ritual. I do not foresee any distractions or issues. We are very close now.

Abandoned the quest three time, retook the quest. Was able to start the ritual, place the bowl, but the book, where do I place it? There is no indication of where it should be placed. Not like the bowl that had a raised spot next to him.
Finally, I logged off and back on, very faintly is an indication to his left of where to place the book. It may have been there the entire time, the coloring of the ground and the book placement is so damn close, it's almost invisible. I will post a screen shot of where the book should be placed.

Edit: I had similar issues with the scepter. Fortunately since I just went though with it with the book, I had a fairly good idea what was going on and was able to find the scepter placement faster. I've submitted four screenshots, one for the placement of the book and then one after the book was placed and one for the placement of the scepter and one after the scepter was placed.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Blood of K'areshK'aresh · Level 80

    In the old days, we used certain deep-mined salts in cleansing processes and rituals. As you can see around you, mining is no longer valid, as these fragile rocks are hanging on to each other. On the day of the Devouring of K'aresh, a never-before-seen mineral surfaced.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Priest of the Old WaysK'aresh · Level 80

    <name>, I suspect that a living manifestation of the Void came out of myself and the items. I cannot, with good conscience, take on the mantle of a priest of the old ways while these manifestations are out there. I have a final request for you. Go find these creatures and slay them.

The storyline at a glance

Priest of the Old Ways has 4 steps, from An Outcast's Request to Priest of the Old Ways.
