Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Slowing the InevitableGilneas · Level 1-20

    As much as I want to exact swift and brutal revenge... I must honor my son's memory first. He cared for his people first and foremost. The Undertaker's Pass goes underground below Northgate River.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Laid to RestGilneas · Level 1-20

    In our hurried escape for safety, we disturbed the resting homes of our ancestors, <name>. A grave sin, if you'll pardon the pun. It is tradition that a small memento be buried on top of a Gilnean's graveyard, beneath the shallow earth.
