What to do
Description
<Faerin's wide eyes dart around in surprise.> What just happened? Did you see that shadow? And the oil well... it's gone dark? I've never seen anything like this before. Could it be the nearby dawntower? Hurry!
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.

Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Something's Fishy
So you outsiders and Faerin managed to both survive and save the villagers at the beach? <Steelstrike breathes a quick prayer in relief.> We're in trouble, here. The kobyss brought some of their strongest forces to the doorsteps of villagers. We have our hands full just holding the line.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- The Darkened Flame
This... Order of Night, as they call themselves, did some foul ritual to turn the tower's flame to darkness. I know not what. We should investigate.
