Description

Where to go

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Incident ReportsTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    No wonder our workers are terrified to go into these woods. Generally the bears and spiders stay out of the way of humans... But these are no ordinary beasts! Father would be furious if productivity came to a halt. Please, cull these beasts so that the ridge can be safe once more!

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Required WebinarTiragarde Sound · Level 10-60

    I'm not surprised some of the workers stayed in the woods, even amidst the beasts. While he won't admit it, some of father's workers are extremely dedicated. And now they're trapped by the spiders! Perhaps they have information about what is going on here.
