Keep the Secret Safe

Keep the Secret Safe is a quest for level 10-30 in Borean Tundra. It is step 90 of 182 in the Borean Tundra storyline. The quest's turn-in marker is in Borean Tundra at 33.5, 34.4. It rewards 4 reward items, 1 reputation reward, 4,100 experience and money. Completing it counts toward 2 achievements.

Description

Our existence here depends entirely upon staying hidden. Should the shield fail, even for a moment, Malygos' minions would have us.

One of my responsibilities is to rejuvenate the warmages' mana levels so their focus doesn't falter. With our supply lines lost, I've been forced to improvise.

I could use your help, <name>.

Very near the Nexus, Arcane Serpents feast on the abundant magical energies. Once defeated, they will yield a mana essence that I can make use of.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Nuts for BerriesBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    Oh! What a relief it is to see a fresh face. I was beginning to feel we had been forsaken. Our supply lines were cut off days ago, and things have been looking - well, bleak. To be honest, this was a suicide mission to begin with if you ask me.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Basic TrainingBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    This is war, mortal, and we are the tip of the spear. Your little spats over land or currency pale in comparison to this conflict. We face the aspect Malygos and his entire blue dragonflight. All you need to know is that if he is victorious, this world shall be no more.
