What to do
Description
Commander Molotov sent word directly that you should be dispatched to our forward post. We're preparing to send squads into the ruins to rout the naga and recover the artifact, and he would like you to lead one of them. Get to the northwest corner of the beach and follow the path up to our forward post.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Halo Drops
We've got "soldiers" all over the beach trying to get out of their work by dying on us. Find the slackers and use this flaregun to call in a priest to take care of the situation. We can't have men thinking they can get off that easy.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Head of the Snake
They taught us at officers camp to always cut off the head of the snake. Seemed dumb considering we never fought any snakes, but I guess it kind of makes sense now. Take your men in there and kill Lord Kassarus.
