On the Trail Again

Description

Ah... the Veiled Ossuary. I was given the task to be a sort of gravekeeper, which included keeping wildlife away from the area.

I had a rather fun spell split up within several tomes kept within this place to deal with such pests.

The other blue dragons did not approve of my... reckless methods, so I had to keep the tomes hidden.

Here, allow me to cast a spell on you to grant you the sight to find these old tomes.

Once they are all gathered, we can cleanse this place of the invasive wildlife.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Keeper of the OssuaryLevel 36-80

    Greetings, <name>. While I continue to search for the remaining blue dragons, I could use your aid in another matter. Alexstrasza and I plan on laying to rest the remaining essences of Malygos and Sindragosa. She has held on to their lingering essences after both were slain years ago.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Rolling OutLevel 36-80

    I remember having so much fun rolling these creatures up with my spells. Unfortunately, I fear these old bones will not let me move as quickly as I once did. I would love for you to give it a shot. Let me live vicariously through you! The more creatures you roll up, the bigger the ball becomes.
