Description

This brings me no joy, {name}, but I will do what I must to make sure my family is happy and safe. I would prefer we avoid violence, but if we must... there are two targets. Their leaders. Captain Malia and Commander Augustine. Their loss should force the two groups to retreat from the area. Also, Augustine confiscated a book of mine. Recover it and my powers are yours, for however long I have left.

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.
