I think this quest area is actually phased out due to the Xal'atath quest chain for Crucible of Storms. Try to complete the quest chain (if you are on it) to see if it unphases the area if you are having trouble seeing the NPCs or quest objectives.

If you can't see any of the quest NPCs. Check if you are currently on the Xal'atath quest chain for Crucible of Storms. This will phase the area.

If you started any of the Xal'atath quests, you need to finish the whole chain first before you can complete Awaken a God & Saving for Later

Description

We need time to recover the artifacts from this place. Time the naga will not let us have. However, we do have a plan. We simply hide what we don't want them to find, and then come back in a decade or two. They will have forgotten about this place by then. Take this illusion scroll and use it to conceal the notable artifacts of power.

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.

  • Awaken a GodZuldazar · Level 10-60

    You see the sinking ruins to the east? They were, not long ago, a temple to the shark loa, Gral. The naga tore down his temple and are stealing his secrets. If it is for something good, I'll be a rock's uncle. It would be wise to let Gral know what's going on here. I do not think he would approve.

After this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Beneath the WavesZuldazar · Level 10-60

    Those witches dare! In my temple? Siavass is stretching past the realm of that which she can comprehend. There is a darkness seeking them, and they call to it! Her kind will become no more than a hollow tool to those who may answer. I feel it moving beneath us, around us.

The storyline at a glance

The Sunken City has 8 steps, from The Scrolls of Gral to Word from the Deep.
