Into the Totem is a quest for level 30-35 in Abyssal Depths. It is step 29 of 43 in the Vashj'ir, Abyssal Depths storyline. It rewards 1 reputation reward, 4,800 experience and money.
You must take my totem down into the Scalding Chasm. Use it to capture the energies of the faceless as they die. The totem will keep them from returning from whence they came.
When the totem is full, bring it back to me and we will use it to lure their leader up from deep down below.

Not near spire at the bottom, he is on the platform above :)
Note, you do not have to be the one to tag the mobs in order to get credit. Just drop your totem near any of these things when they die.
I had the same problem, until I discovered that I might be killing them to quickly. I tried slowing down my dps and let the totem drain a bit more, and that seem to fixed the problem.

I've got an idea for a sweet disguise, but I'm going to need your help, <name>! Take one of these merciless corpses and put it on your head. I know, I know, but it's dead, so what could possibly go wrong other than you smelling bad for a day or two? Ready to put it on?

We think that we have a use for the merciless ones that your friend from the cave delivered to us. But I need a preservative for it. Down below in the Scalding Chasm are some mushrooms with the properties that I need. Bring some back up to me and I'll see what I can do.
