Description

A Klaxxi'va whispers to the tower. It carries their whisper far; to other towers, to mantid, to paragons. The whisper bounces back, and the Klaxxi hear it. This way, they see all. A tower near the palace is quiet. This will not do. It must sing for the Klaxxi. It is my job to fix the tower, but if you serve the Klaxxi, you should serve me as well. You fix the tower, and I will wait here!

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.

  • Not Fit to SwarmDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    Newly hatched mantid have only two instincts: kill and feed. They turn on one another, devouring the weak and leaving the strongest to mature. Those hatched during a swarm - the swarmborn - are turned loose on our enemies instead. The swarmborn in the Clutches of Shek'zeer have been tainted.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • In Her ClutchDread Wastes · Level 30-35

    The crystal sings to the Klaxxi. They sense a paragon in the clutch, east of the tower. Clutch-keepers are trying to pollute this one. The Klaxxi will not permit this. Go and find the paragon. Place your hands on his chamber, and the Klaxxi will channel their whispers through you to break him free.
