Stand in the middle of the circle and the extra action button will appear. Don't be me, standing there pondering what to click on :/

If you had the same issue as me and nothing appears when you right-click on the skull, just relog and it should work.

Careful, this quest appeared to be bugged when I did it. I had to abandon and re-accept the quest 3 or 4 times before completing it.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Ritual ReagentsLevel 10-45
The Skull of the Man'ari, oh good choice! It's very powerful and it's held by an even more powerful Dreadlord! There is a weakness, the skull has a will of its own! If we can commune with the skull we might be able to convince it to serve you instead!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

Dark WhispersLevel 10-45
Felsoul Hold is not far away, but it is well defended. Very tough to get in the normal way, but Calydus can help you sneak in! There is a portal that my kind use to haul in treasures, with it you can get in and find the skull!
