Description

You've slown down Gor'groth's efforts to control Kalecgos atop the citadel, but the ritual itself needs to be thwarted. You must storm the citadel and stop him from completing the ritual. His dark magic is an affront to the Light. We will need all the help we can get. Gor'groth's most elite lieutenants await within the citadel.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Controlling their StonesExile's Reach · Level 7-10

    Captain Kelra won't last much longer. We need to acquire the ward stones to break the ritual before it kills her. I'll continue weakening the main ritual. Get those ward stones from the ogre lieutenants nearby.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Who Lurks in the PitExile's Reach · Level 6-9

    The winds whisper of people being trapped in the pit. It seems there may be more members of the expedition within. I fear it will be up to you to make the descent and save the survivors. There should be six in total... though the winds say that one is farther away from the others...

The Missing Expedition has 70 steps, from Warming Up to Aiding the Dragon Isles.
