TheWoWDBDon't forget to place the beacon after beating Urda! Those little Dark Iron guys hit pretty hard so I had to take them down twice to finish the quest.

So is there a point to this quest line? It just ends after you turn in the last 2 quests.
So at first I read the quest and thought "Greaaat, I need to get to the artifact by myself and kill Urda and place the beacon, but you do all the hard work, right, Astrandis? Oh well, maybe the mobs respawn fast and a teleport back could save me some time". And then...well, no spoilers.
Not that I hold any grudges, but think we could talk to Occuleth to tell the woman who trained this guy's master to tell this guy's master to fail him in his apprenticeship? "That worked precisely as I imagined it would."...

They must not keep the Eye, {name}. Fortunately I am more than an archaeologist. I am a telemancer. Chief Telemancer Oculeth himself trained the woman who trained my master. I can retrieve the relic with these arts. All you need to do is place a telemancy beacon near the Eye. I can then retrieve both it AND you safely back to camp. The Alliance will find themselves empty-handed. While you're at it, do deliver my "thanks" to the individual responsible for snatching the Eye out from under us.

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.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- A Dark (Iron) Tide
Their red eyes... flaming beards... dark, dusky skin. These can only be Dark Iron dwarves. I have never seen one before this day. It is my understanding that they have been sent here on an errand for the Alliance.
