Description
<Solar energy courses through the slumbering constructs, their ancient servos whirring to life all around you. It is too late to shut them down now. Outside, an arakkoa overseer bellows commands, each answered by the buzz of an Apexis beam carving away at the mountain. That turret would make short work of the constructs - if you can command it.>

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.

After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Hot Seat
<Apexis constructs are about to emerge from their ancient chambers on a warpath. The arakkoa are sure to send more sol-shapers to support them. The interface and the turret hum in soft resonance.>
