Description

Delays, delays... the one thing we cannot afford right now! As much as I hate to disturb Lord Surristrasz, he's our only hope of saving our beloved Evanor. Bring him the key fragments and hope that his mood is favorable. Hurry, {class}, our assault team is waiting.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • A Race Against TimeBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    So it's true. They have her. It's clear what must be done, <race>. She WILL be saved. I must remain here and aid in the rescue preparations. I call upon you again; this time to collect the prison key. All we know of this Salrand figure is that she cannot be harmed so long as her shield is intact.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Taking WingBorean Tundra · Level 10-30

    The key is forged anew. Now heed my counsel, <race>. Succeed in your endeavor or die trying, for if a single scale falls from one of my drakes I shall hold you personally accountable. Now, off with you.
