Description

Hmm. Well that's not... great. But no cause for alarm, yet!

It has been a long time since our ring withdrew from here, and we probably need to go to its source to get it to return!

Unfortunately, I haven't heard from the Chief Mushroomancer, Cortinarius, since the crisis began.

Please, find him and help us rejoin the rings! Head west of Dreamsong Fenn to the Stalks. You can't miss them... just follow the mushrooms!

This questline must be finished before the portal to Oribos will show up!
- Upgrade to level 3 transport network required for Oribos portal

I upgraded the transport network to 3 but the Oribos portal was missing, once I completed this quest line then used the mushroom to transport to the ring and then back to the heart of the forest the portal to Oribos appeared.

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.

    The mushrooms are under attack! I need your help, or we risk losing it all! Some fae wearing strange masks came in and demanded to gain access to the rings. When I told them they were closed due to the drought, they attacked me! I'm too weak to fight back now, and I'm cut off from the center ring.
