What to do
Description
I had not expected to find djaradin here, though it does not surprise me. Legends tell of their elders slumbering beneath the earth. It makes sense that some would delve underground in search of them. Their forces are heavily guarding this outer area. I recognize the magic their scouts are using--it is farsight, powered by those totems near them. I spotted a larger totem at the top of the nearby tower. If you can figure out how to power it, we can use it to search the caldera from afar.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Where There's Smoke, There's Fire
If you are finished indulging Ebyssian's associate, I would have us return to more pressing matters. Locating Fyrakk is still our primary mission. We cannot continue to delay it. I have discovered a massive caldera at the western edge of Zaralek.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Legends of the Zaqali
Because of our recent conflicts, I have been researching the djaradin. Our archives had little information on their elders. Legends say that they were once great warlords who now slumber beneath the earth.
