Description

<name>, we must help Elder Shaopai. There are few more deserving of our kindness.

On the way here, you surely noticed the scrolls of wisdom hanging in the grotto to the south. The hozen have defiled many of them, and sadly, they are not recoverable. We will deal with the problem directly - burn the defiled scrolls. Wipe the hozen writings away entirely.

Do not worry for Elder Shaopai. The people shall come together and help him rewrite the wisdoms in time. I shall see to that.

Where this quest fits

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Tools of the EnemyThe Wandering Isle · Level 1-20

    The hozen have stolen our brushes and are painting over our scrolls of wisdom with their own wisdoms, if you can call them that. If you're here to help, stop them and bring our brushes back before they can do more harm.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Stronger Than StoneThe Wandering Isle · Level 1-20

    Gather me stone blocks from the Ridge of Laughing Winds to the south. You have seen my strength twice, yet I still spy doubt within your eyes. It will not last.
