This is such a beautiful put together quest, listening to the relic's stories, Arathor's comments, the plaques, the meaning behind the relics not being weapons of war, the deep meaning of what a Paladin stands for..... What a touching quest... Definitely in my top 5 ever.

Description

Alonsus tells me you're looking for relics of holy power, to sustain those performing the ritual holding the Void at bay. Now that you've beaten back the Scourge, you and Arator are certainly welcome to enter the Sanctum of Light and use what we have for the cause.

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.

  • Flickering HopeEastern Plaguelands · Level 83-88

    Normally, <name>, paladins from Light's Hope hold back the Scourge in the immediate area around the chapel, but they've all been called to fight the Void. As a result, Scourge forces have greatly increased their numbers around the chapel.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Scarlet PowerEastern Plaguelands · Level 83-88

    These artifacts will help sustain the Vanguard, but they are not enough. I know of a place nearby that would have the rest we need, but... given Arator's state of mind, I'm hesitant to go there. Hmph... No sense in avoiding it.
