What to do
Description
Guard our ways, repel the dark. Civilize this twisted land. All in the name of our empire. This is the mission of the Arathi Army. A mission I can heed no longer. I am afraid. I won't go back into the dark. Not after what I've seen. If Maevest or any of my other companions survived, they must crave the mercy of a swift death. And I left them to that terror. Tell Captain Trueflame her scouts died in darkness, one and all.
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.
- Status Report
Airships give the Arathi Army command of the skies. But roads are the lifeblood of empires. My scouts protect and light the passageways of Hallowfall for our citizens. One such patrol has been late to report their walk of the eastern road. Seek my missing scouts by the sight of smoke or flame.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Stem the Flow
The roads were meant to be lit. But the path was overgrown, the lanterns dark. Swarming, frothing, and reeking with rot. It all happened so fast. By the time we realized the danger, the beasts were upon us. The largest of them was huge and black as night.
