Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Leave No Stone BehindThe Ringing Deeps · Level 73-75

    Many earthen fell when the kobolds took this mine. Worse, those who fell were left to crumble where they dropped. There was no attempt to recover them. We couldn't provide closure or respect their memories. Why? Why did we forsake the fallen? We will not fail them again, <name>.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Cracking CogchewerThe Ringing Deeps · Level 73-75

    Cogchewer is muscle for Candle King. So mean! Rebuilds earthen gears for wars. Also in charge of mine's defenses. Need his keys to get in the mines... and get me out of this thing!
