Driven Mad

Driven Mad is a quest for level 30-70 in The Azure Span. It is step 11 of 17 in the Into the Archives storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in The Azure Span at 40.7, 59.0. It rewards 2 reputation rewards, 9,500 experience and money.

Description

The Azure Archives was once a place where the blue dragons would gather to discuss magic.

Now I am the only one of my kind here.

This place controls the ley lines beneath the Azure Span, but it and its servants have gone out of control.

I believe if we bring order to this place that I can then reclaim the Azure Oathstone.

The various constructs and elements are brimming with unstable arcane energy that needs to be redirected.

Destroy them and collect what you can.

    Good to formally meet you, <name>. My name is Kalecgos, Archmage of the Kirin Tor and Aspect of the blue dragonflight. I'm having difficulty repairing the Azure Archives to reclaim the Azure Oathstone. I could use an extra pair of physical hands. I'm currently up in the archives themselves.

    We cannot activate the oathstone in the Azure Archives until we fix the issue with the out of control ley energy here. Two out of the three draconic runes that are meant to control it are being choked by unstable arcana.
