Recommend NOT using Mind Control on the cultists - you get to keep one for a few seconds to fight Dregada but then when you lose control of the minion everything despawns and you have to wait for the quest mob to respawn x.x do not ask me why I did this
[npc=127079] is on the top of the temple.
Respawn is kinda long, so just wait there if you cant see him.Picking a Side quest video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uuZm1d2cliQ

Good news, we found de source of de corruption. De bad news, it is a ritual on de apex of Zanchul. Blood magic wielding heretics are empowering some sort of dire troll up dere. How it made it all de way to de apex without us catching it is something I am sure Raal and I will be arguing about for de next year. Come, let us stop dis heresy.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Competitive Devotion
Okay, I know dis situation is serious, but she gave you de power of her loa? Sounds to me like Loti is more big on recruiting than on dealing with dis blood troll threat. Inside de temple behind me are three guardians. When I walked in dere, de things tried to kill me. Me!
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Picking a Side
Look, dis has gone on long enough, <name>. I am not one to hold a grudge, but I will be damned if I let you double dip with Raal's loa and my own. Time has come to pick a loa. De loa are not de sharing type.
