Description
It's nice to see someone else taking a vested interest in the arcane arts, you know. It's all too rare these days if you ask me. Unfortunately, I must meet Cordana to handle an important matter, but we're in luck! One of my good friends in the Kirin Tor has agreed to help you connect your arcane sanctum to the ley line network. She's waiting at my tower. Let's leave immediately and introduce you to one another.

I'm pleased to report that your Arcane Sanctum is up and running, commander! Everything is exactly as the blueprint says... except for this note Baros scrawled on the bottom. "Don't forget to connect the sanctum to the ley line network!" Commander, I'm a foreman, not a mage. I...
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Creating the Ink
We need a way to create an artificial nexus at your tower. I know where we can get the conduit to do that, but it's well-guarded. We need to keep our cool and do this the right way. I have a plan - a scroll of mass teleportation.
