What to do
Description
Now that we have a foothold within the garrison, we can extend our search. We will hold off the forces of Aberrus here while you find Emberthal and aid her in reaching Sarkareth. We will join you as soon as we secure the front here.
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.
- Forward Camp
Since Sarkareth now wields the power of Aberrus's defenses, he has an army that will shield him from us. The next step for us will be to establish a stronghold inside the garrison. That way we can search it without interruption. Meet me there.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Cracking His Shell
We have seen shields like this before. Sarkareth is drawing on the power of Aberrus to protect himself while he finds his way in. Cowardly, but clever. Disrupt the conduits that are supplying his shield power, and we should be able to reach him.
