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.

  • Never ForgetTalador · Level 20-40

    We had to escape Telmor with what few we could save. Someone disabled Leafshadow's cloaking field; I know not who, but I suspect it had to have been one of our own. We will retrieve our livelihoods in time, but we cannot risk losing our sacred artifacts.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • The Final PieceTalador · Level 20-40

    I am too injured to fight, <class>. I have failed my city and its people. This battle is yours. Vorpil waits just ahead. He's trying to use Auch'naaru's powers for some sort of dark ritual. You must do what I could not.
