Description

The deserts here were never safe, but there was still beauty--birdsong, herds of animals, and the desert would bloom from horizon to horizon after a storm.

Now it's a wasteland. I barely took two steps off the docks before being chased by some monster. I need to get out there. If you could cull the worst of those creatures, I'd feel much safer.

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Signs in the SandsK'aresh · Level 80

    Things are starting to feel familiar. I think I know the way back to my village. I should tell you... I'm not just looking for my sister. Our mother died when I was studying in the cities. Shahata buried her under her favorite tree, but I wasn't there.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Ill-met in StarlightK'aresh · Level 80

    I used to practice what I would say when I saw my brother again. Then I stopped believing I would... He's been away all this time, and now he comes to ask for heirlooms? I dug our mother's grave beside her favorite tree. Alone.
