This quest is enough to make you dislike the expansion already with that said if you land back at the starting point without hitting the start over button you can keep your progress
I was so stoked on my new drak until this quest. Soar launches me too high to hit the rings, I can't X to lower my flight like usual, and the speed up spell only has two uses and doesn't lower me low enough to hit the rings. This is incredibly aggravating. I've played WoW for years and am completely lost in the @#$%ing starting zone. What is going on with this user interface? How do I lower my soar? WTF

Description
I am heartened to see that so many escaped the War Creche. My own weyrn... was not as fortunate. <Emberthal stands in silence for a moment.> There are other creches throughout the Reach, filled with dracthyr in peril. Strong wings will be needed to reach them. Focus. Remember your training. Get a feel for the wind again. You must regain your strength and fly to the other creches. The time for rest is over.
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.
- The Fire Within
You are an evoker, <name>. The best of the best. An elite soldier who has mastered the skills of each of our weyrns. I expect a lot of you. Your memories may be broken, but the might of dragons courses through your veins. Harness it. One of your most potent weapons is your breath attack.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Train Like We Fight
Jumping through hoops is helpful to get your bearings, but we train like we fight--relentlessly. Go ahead and try Soaring around the area until you feel you have mastered the technique. Of course you must be mindful of the local wildlife and keep an eye out for any potential threats.
