TheWoWDBThis has been the worst quest of the three civilizations so far...
The quest in Stormheim had me digging in 8 dig sites (good)
The quest in High Mountain had me digging in 1 dig site
That quest in Azsuna had me digging in 24 dig sites. It's just too long, too tedious. I hope they change that because I'm not sure I will have the strenght to do it again...

Description
This land holds many secrets and many artifacts of ancient times. From what I've been able to discern there's an artifact of great power close to here. I just need to narrow down its location. I'd like you to dig up more artifacts and learn what you can. When you feel you've done enough research, come back to me and share your knowledge.
Where to go

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Reliquary Calls
Tae'thelan of the Reliquary has asked me to send anyone who may be able to help them in Azsuna. Seeing as how you happened into my shop purely by coincidence, I thought you'd be willing to go, <name>. Back to work for me though. So much to do and so little help. <Dariness lets out a sigh.>
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Beacon of Hope
I've marked the location of the artifact on your map. It's in a rather hostile location, so I'd like you to go there and find it. When you've recovered it, bring it back to me so I can discern its power.
