Description
I get the feeling that all the pieces are here, but I just can't put them together in a way that makes sense. I think our best lead is to attempt to locate this deserter. If he left his comrades at the camp, there's a chance you might be able to persuade him to help us understand what the dark conclave arakkoa are planning. Start your search for him along the road in Magma Fields to the northwest. It seems a likely place for him to take refuge.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sketh'lon Wreckage
Our scouts have brought back disturbing reports from the ruined arakkoa encampments in the area. The ghosts of powerful arakkoa magicians wield powers we never thought they possessed. They seem to be organizing, as though preparing for something, but our knowledge is limited.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Sketh'lon Wreckage
The Sketh'lon Wreckage, just to the east, is an eerie place. The peons are convinced that it's cursed. There are few trees here, so the peons have no choice but to venture into the arakkoa ruins to chop wood.
