It no longer matters how the Sundered Flame got here; now we need to know why. What is in this vault that Sarkareth is after? {name}, while you are in their camp, look for notes, research papers, journals--anything you can find that might reveal their intentions. Please bring whatever you find to me.
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.
- Save-A-Mole
Perisimona told me about her life-mate, Tuberros, and what she knows about his disappearance. Tuberros was guiding a client from the Dragonscale Expedition around some ruins here. It sounds as though they may have run into the Sundered Flame. I would rather not go after the Sundered Flame myself.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Whose Vault Is It Anyway?
I do not know what we will find in the vault or why Sarkareth wants access to it, but I hope we are not too late. Before we continue any further, Tuberros should lead Rannan and Perisimona back to Loamm. Come and talk to me once you are ready to move forward.
